Wow. Have the posters here actually tried marijuana? I thought this was a progressive forum. Less harmful than alcohol. Doesn't cause liver damage, doesn't give you GERD or erode away your stomach, a much healthier alternative.

Also federally illegal here and tested for by many employers, so totally not worth it. Stupid, but that's never stopped lawmakers before.

yeah I'm going to say. I'm a computer nerd(well geek actually) and I'm fairly progressive and see nothing wrong with little pot now and then as long as the user is responsible about it.

Now you're getting it! I'm a gentleman so I can't share pics and I just give women what they want, whats wrong with that?? Btw, have you finally come to your senses and realized that mayo definitely belongs on sammiches and has many other fun "uses"?

Mayo does not belong on sandwiches, especially on hamburgers. It barely belongs in tuna and chicken salad.

Mayo absolutely belongs on a hamburger. If your burger doesn't have at least mayo, pickle, lettuce, tomato, and onion on it, you have failed.

No it doesn't, and I suppose you also put tomato ketchup on steak or pot roast?

I can't remember the last time I had pot roast, but no sauce on steak. Cool red center, charred on the outside, maybe a rub with garlic before it cooks. I guess I could go for some steak au poivre from time to time. I support your right to ruin a burger though. Do you - you're the only one who can. 😉

The only thing I put ketchup on is french fries, and often not even that. Give me some decent mushroom ketchup and I'll put that on my hamburger, steak, and roast.

I had heard that the original ketchup was mushroom based, but I've never actually seen it. Any recommendations?

I was too proud to be messin' with THC-related stuff. I always preferred drinks. I also can't stand smoking.

My friend gave me an edible- a proper manufactured product from CO. I ingested about 40mg.

Holy hell. Music sounded amazing. And paranoia kicked in too. Then slept for 10 hours, woke up feeling very well rested.

8/10, would try again.

Be careful with those. It doesn't hit you right away and people consumed way too much and done some crazy shit.

Man if you don't recognize the effect drugs have on ATOT posters (e.g. Mayne), then you're just as stupid. You're married with a kid. Time to grow up.

Well I never tried mushroom ketchup before as I can't find it anywhere. And actually ketchup was originally fermented fish based from Asia. The mushroom based one was invented by the British trying to recreate the original.

I got stopped this afternoon by someone collecting signatures for the legalization of medical marijuana in Missouri. I wonder if the beer companies will ever allow that here (without it being legal federally).
Click to expand...
Seems like the beer companies would be wise to capitalize on it. They have a distribution network, they have farms across the country, and they have power and influence in an industry that is already a "sindustry". There's a lot of money to be made in the very near future...

its full of computer nerds. computer nerds are practical. they tend to be Conservatives. at the very least, they dont encourage crazy liberalism.
Having said that, the practicality aspect should include tolerance of a drug like THC which really isnt very harmful.

Problem in this country is conservative just really means bat shit crazy christian. So you can either side with the useless liberals or the regressive christians. Where's option C again?
 
40 mg? When I was in CO, the standard amount in a single edible item (cookie, candy, etc.) was 10 mg.

It's supposed to be.

I think this is a "servings per container" thing - I've definitely heard of companies putting 2-4 doses into an edible. There were some rumblings about labeling laws and dosage recommendations. I don't know what the argument against it was, except maybe to encourage you to split a cookie with friends. Or maybe so they can justify higher prices for individual edibles.
 
I don't know a lot about pot "regulation." But are these regulations state-based or federal? If federal, I would be very surprised since pot is still illegal at the federal level. I've read dispensary's and other manufactures and sellers have a hard time dealing with banks for this reason.

I was referring to discussions about state-level initiatives, which would have mimic'd federal rules for labeling other foodstuffs/drugs.

If it were legalized federally for recreational use, it would probably be subject to the same BATF/FDA rules that alcohol and whatnot are. (Limits on concentrations, recommended dosage, labeling requirements, etc.) The state rules would then be redundant.
