that's fine, think whatever you want. not my problem you don't have a good connection.

This is all conjecture at this point, so unless we want to start breaking out budshots, we should just end this silliness here.

I agree, but the limited evidence I was presented with makes a strong case for him.

I think I get the gist of the argument here, and he's full of shit.

I don't doubt that he can source it for 40$, but there's no way that its good stuff.

In Oregon, it was pretty much universally 40$ for an eighth of an ounce, or 3.5 grams.

Anything cheaper was schwag. I guess it's all relative though. If whatever he gets is all he is used to, then he has no concept of what is better.

I can only speak through the experiences of my friend, who is well versed in these matters, that lived in upstate NY (so, the same region) until last year and the statements corroborate each other.

I'm sure the personal experience of him and your friend > the entire CA MMJ community.

lol

living in upstate myself you can get all the "name brands" up here for 35-40$ an 1/8th
schwag you can get for like 20$

40 a quad for good stuff wont happen unless you are sleeping with your dealer

Thank you for someone coming in and making our exact point! Reality just hit the thread!

Never did myself. I think it's stupid. Then again, I think any type of smoking is for morons.

I guess I need to get in on this somehow.

I do not smoke weed. I've never smoked weed. I've never even put a cigarette or cigar to my lips just to try it. I have been to a hookah lounge though. It was fun.

There. Done.

I dont need it, dont want it.
if you cant get by without it... then you have a problem regardless if its "not dangerous"...
I dont care if its legal on the state/local level. Its still federally illegal.
Finally its immoral, regardless of its legality on any level.

Says who, and based on what ethical/philosophical framework?

Please elaborate on this bold claim.

Why me and my right wing ultra conservative no-fun christian agenda of course.
:p

Well he might have let this slide, but I would like to see an actual arguement for the immorality of entering an altered state, if you can formulate one. I doubt you can but I'd be very interested if you could. Unless you were being sarcastic in the original post too of course.

God damn, that's way more than it used to be when I cared. I blame inflation. :D

I havent.
But it had nothing to do with lack of trying. I just wasnt cool enough to hang out with those who had access.

So.. You're saying that only potheads smoke pot?

what magnificent reasoning skills you've demonstrated here.


I'm sorry, I'm putting words into your post that aren't really there. Could you post your set of qualifications for reefer smokers? I'm terribly curious to see if I fit them and if all of my weed head friends also fit them.

I have to warn you though, we're a pretty diverse bunch..

This is the saddest thing I've ever read. :( Please, come hang out with me. I don't care how "cool" you are, I'll get you high.

Sorry, I'm not driving from Virginia to California to do some doobees.
Should have made the offer when I was still living in Oregon.

How old are you now? I remember not being one of the 'cool kids' in high school, aka 10th graders skipping english to smoke blunts, but college is a different story. I felt like every engineer I met was a huge pothead, and after a few semesters I began to see why. Unfortunately drug tests are really common for engineers, so I've seriously cut back from my more hazy college days.

Meh. No weed for me. I did smoke it a few times when I was around 18 or so, but never did much for me.

I know a dude that runs a cannabis club who was tied up and beaten close to death by burglars. He had to be helicoptered to the hospital, but 3 days later he walked out of the hospital cause they threatened to kick him out because he was smoking weed in his hospital bed. Now that is a true stoner. The doctors said he healed miraculously fast considering he is almost 70, so maybe it is not so bad for you after all.

He's gotta get a car and move out of his parents basement first.
