What do you prefer- getting high or drunk?

[mnewsham]

So you're more of a medicinal user then. My issue is with recreational users.

my problem is where you draw the line, kids who go out get high every day and sit on their ass doing nothing, I do have some problems with that.

However a college kid who just wants to relax after a long day of classes? While it might not be medicinal, it sure is therapeutic and I would argue that it should be legal for him.
It's a slippery slope in my opinion.

What's ABV and CBD?

hehe

We def put A LOT into the brownies, that's what we figured. It was more of an "overdose" type of a thing/bad reaction from THC overload.

ABV is pot you have already vaporized
CBD is Cannabidiol which is different from THC in that CBD causes a more couch lock feeling where as the THC is more of the psychedelic and mind altering high.

and yeah, edibles are not to fuck around with, I recommend using 1/2 to 1/4 of what you THINK will get you high.

too many calories with drinking. doesnt work for me with my sedentary lifestyle. many of my problems originate with the fact that I sit at a desk for 10 hours a day. (at least, thats how I see it...)

We learned the hard way, fortunately it wasn't a "VERY hard way" but def borderline.

What's your issue with recreational users?

Heck although I do have a chronic disease that does benefit from MaryJ and has helped me in the past, I noticed "very mild" medication is doing a much better job at "containing" my disease.

So I wouldn't call myself a medical user, more of a recreational user.

Sounds like you smoked some SHITTY weed.

Good weed will not slow everything down, quite the opposite. It will give you upbeat/more awareness type of high. You will see better/clearer as well.

Me without weed = lazy

Also it improves my hearing. I hear things in music I NEVER hear when sober.

Give me some good weed and I will get all kinds of shit done. And done right too! My wife tells me I'm like a mad man when I have a toke and get out into a yard or work on cars etc. For whatever reason I can focus so much better and I have that motivation in me. It's weird.

Also I cannot fall asleep or get tired while on it.

On the other hand, if you smoke some dirt mexican crap. Yeah you will be your "typical" head heavy, lazy and snoopy pot head that so often goes with the "generalizations" we all hear.

Considering I get my stuff from very VERY good friends who have the best intentions at heart, I somehow doubt this. They grow their stuff on their own I'm not sure a dozen different friends are getting the exact type of shitty weed.

I can get shit tons of stuff done while buzzed too if I wanted to.

Getting drunk.

I never really understood the fascination with getting high. I've done it many different ways, vapes, bongs, joints, etc etc etc to varying degrees of highness and I've never really cared for it. It just makes me feel mopey and slows everything down, which isn't that great an experience. Music doesn't really change for me either, I still hate all that psychedelic/dubstep music crap.

And is weed actually a hallucenegen? I haven't seen/heard any of that shit, I just feel normal, just a bit stupider.

At least with getting drunk, things get so much more fun, much more talkative, and I feel nice and warm inside.

honestly it just sounds like you have a low tolerance and you are smoking too good shit for you to handle, weed only slows shit down when I take massive hits for a good 5-10 mins.


Also, your minds expectations of the high WILL effect your high.

Yeah but the hangovers are worse with alcohol from my experience.

Like I said in my previous post, I cannot handle smoking but I struggle to just get enough inside my lungs to get a buzz. I imagine that helps with my mild "hangovers" from weed smoking.

Now alcohol, makes me feel depressed and physically destroyed (especially as I get older in age) due to the hangovers.

I drink about a total of 2 quarts of rum and 2 liters of coke every Friday and Saturday.

 

[Saint Nick]

I see the "I don't like it, so you're wrong and stupid" crowd are here. Lol.

Sativas are hard for me to come by. Dunno why. All I get are Indicas and they put me to sleep. Indicas can wake me up a bit if I use the vape. If I smoke/eat it -- I'm out.

Alcohol is fun once in a while, but I limit to "getting drunk" to about one or two times a year. I will socially drink.

The trick is to drink just enough to get buzzed or drunk without overdoing it. It's also better to consume alcohol with food.

Or just drink a ton of water. I can drink liters of vodka as long as I have water and I won't get a hangover

Actually an awesome little side affect of drinking is that it wakes me up damn early. I love that. Sometimes If I have to go to work at like 5 am, I'll drink a decent amount, go to sleep at 1am, and at 4am, I'll wake up feeling awesome and fully rested and jump out of bed and go to work.

It's a damn discussion over if you like being drunk or high. Don't get your panties in wad if there are dissenting opinions.

I have the habit of drinking Rum and Coke at 7pm on Fridays on an empty stomach. I continue until the quart of rum is finished. I get a good drunk then I eat a meal at 3 or 4am in the early morning hours.

Feel like total crap on Saturday. However, I eat and drink a lot on Saturday and take it easy with the drinking usually. Sunday hangovers are not too bad as compared to Saturdays.

Now, when I am at house parties I would eat snacks throughout the night and have little to no hangover the other day.

I have to change my Friday night habits of drinking on an empty stomach.

That's not normal, or I must be drinking different vodka...

I thought I was the only one that woke up early

Only difference is that I DO NOT feel rested and would vomit and feel like pure "ass" the whole day

That only happens when I drink the really crappy and dirt cheap vodka.

Past 25 dollars or so for a 750, I feel great in the morning.

 

[notposting]

I haven't smoked since 12/31/99, and don't particularly miss it. I don't really get drunk anymore, but I will get a pleasant buzz on every now and then.

The thing I didn't like about weed is I could find my brain just sh...u...t.........t.......oooooh. Thoughts just slowed and feeling the stupid coming on. Even drunk as a skunk and fallen over face first on the floor, I could still feel the neurons all firing away.

Really though, just don't need that stuff to have a good time, I guess that has come with age.

 

[dank69]

Then why don't you?

For the same reason we don't exclusively eat rice and beans even though we could.

Isn't this a big misconception? The hangover comes from dehydration.

I've gotten terrible hangover from drinking $80 15-yo single malt scotch.

It's all about how drunk you are vs how much additional water you've consumed before going to sleep.

I've gotten terrible hangover from drinking $70 15-yo single malt scotch.

Nah, I don't get hangovers if I'm not trying to get hangovers simply because I drink tons of water.

Its more of a side feeling, just a feeling where you just kinda feel like shit overall, not just your head. If almost feels like your body is rejecting crap you drank through your pores and that feeling only happens If I'm getting drunk off crappy stuff. It helps when I run the stuff through a brita filter though.

I'm not sure about scotches though, never got drunk off a scotch, so that might feel different.

its friday, so hopefully you can fix this issue later tonight.

 

[Broheim]

I prefer getting drunk, the last two times I smoked weed I just got tired and fell asleep, I never do that when I'm drunk.

 

[zCypher]

Turned 29 today, slightly hungover this morning from drinking a bottle of whiskey last night. I'll take alcohol over weed any time. Alcohol is always fun every time, weed I find I get diminished results with regular use. Had a bit on 420 since one of my younger friends really wanted to and had noone else to toke with lol. It was an alright time plenty fun, but I really don't miss smoking regularly.

Alcohol = best!
