Iago: a half-ounce is like $150-300 of weed (depending on quality), there is no way you're smoking that on yr own in a night unless you're rolling fat blunts and hotboxing the basement

none right now, waiting for the day they legalize it in TX

Hey Bernard, thanks for the info. I'm going to ask the dude next time what the weight or whatever is of what I'm buying. I get like 400 bucks worth every couple weeks so it sounds like I may be doing 1/2 ounce a week? I do a phone service--I text, they call me when they are nearing my corner, I get in their car and do the transaction.

might NOT be crazy about it.
lol, i.e. it's not the case that my wife and landlord would be so psyched to see me grow plants that i would have none left for myself

I did not fit into this poll. If I happen to have it then a lot (every night or a bunch of times on the weekend days) but these days that happens like 3x a year so most weeks it's none.

That might not have made sense.
about a bluntworth of an ounce i bought 20 days ago.at this rate of daily moderate smoking, about a half a week.also depends on the weed.
― dylannn, Wednesday, 21 May 2014 14:06 (nine years ago) link
missed voting on this, about an 8th, maybe a lil less. i'd say an 8th every ten days is about right.

Remain unconvinced that weed is any good once you hit 30. I diligently try because of the benefits to creativity, abstract thought, and engagement with books, video games, and especially music. 50% of time I just get vaguely confused and hungry. 25% of time I get uncomfortable, anxious, or "feel old" and the remaining 25% actually have the effect I remember from my early twenties.

― fields of salmon, Wednesday, 21 May 2014 21:57 (nine years ago) link
About to turn 40, I buy a half every 9 months or so which works out to maybe half a gram per week. Basically I take one hit before I walk the dog or watch my hour of episodic television every day and I'm good. I never bothered with a medical card cause it was easy enough to find friends of friends in Seattle or Portland which I visit pretty regularly. Shit's cheap and abundant. Stores here in WA hopefully open soon so even that minor hassle will be gone.
I quit for six weeks for the first time in years to see what that was like and realize weed totally eliminates a couple weird anxieties and causes no problems for me; my wife can't wait for me to start again and be less anxious and paranoid.
― joygoat, Wednesday, 21 May 2014 23:41 (nine years ago) link
I can attest that, for me, over 40, strong weed has the potential to make for a night of "fuck...my life decisions, what shall I do about them" instead of "wow, 70s Bowie sounds terrific" a lot, but the chance of just soaring with great metal is high. I know a dude in his early 30s who also reports that the last couple times he smoked out, he just ended up in an obsessive-thought loop and it sucked, and he's turned it down since, because those obsessive-thought weed loops are rough when there's actual-life stuff running around in them
― Now I Am Become Dracula (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Wednesday, 21 May 2014 23:59 (nine years ago) link
My natural default is those sorts of negative life decision loops, weed seems to break them and make me think "stop wasting your time on that shit, did you ever think about how awesome ____ is? fuck yeah!"
― joygoat, Thursday, 22 May 2014 00:07 (nine years ago) link
This has also gotten so much better since legalization as it eliminates that last anxiety related thing - like I can be kind of high, out walking the dog, and just get all chatty with my cop neighbor without the whole "oh shit he knows I'm stoned I'm going to jail thing" and just talk about motorcycles
― joygoat, Thursday, 22 May 2014 00:11 (nine years ago) link
yeah for me I think it's about strains, last time I was in Amsterdam I was able to test one against another on successive nights and found one that was just right. when the shit's as strong as it is now it's more important to me to sort of know what I'm getting myself into
