What can you do stoned?

For some people, the question is what can't you do stoned, ha, ha, ha!? But, for me, it's what can you, because my list is only 3 items long. I can watch TV, listen to music and eat. That's why I stopped smoking pot a long time ago.

Oh, but we have weed. People give it to us and it just piles up. It's there. I think about it. Just now, I was thinking it might be nice to get a little high for once, get in a hot tub and read. Then, I remembered that I probably couldn't read stoned. I can't carry on a conversation or keep a train of thought or even understand what's going on in a TV show half the time, so how could I possibly read?

I can't get stoned and hang out in bars or clubs. I can't get stoned and go to work or talk to my mom. I can't get stoned and go hiking, jogging or work out. I can't get stoned after I drink or I turn into an instant cross-eyed vegetable. I can't get stoned and walk down the hall of my building for fear any neighbors I run into might think I'm weird. I can't be in public stoned. I can't order food stoned. I can't go into a deli to get a soda stoned.

Why do people find being stoned so relaxing?

Depends on the weed. Different qualities and varieties of marijuana can be completely different drugs.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:04 (twenty-two years ago)

in other words, get some sativa

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I know what you mean, scaredy cat, and it's part of the reason I don't smoke much anymore. All I was ever smoking was the weak, toxic, cornfield variety Mexican shit that's the only thing you can get down here most days. Gimme some of that strong, clean $100-a-quarter-ounce shit, and I'm clear, happy, talkative, and pleasantly fucked-up.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Nah, I can't imagine in all the years with all the different types of weed I've seen and smoked, I never smoked "the good stuff". It didn't start out like this; I had 7 or 8 years of pot-smoking fun. I had a crazy-ass Jamaican roommate who rolled up pinecone size white crystalline waxy buds into cigars (actually, he just used brown bag!) I had hear the term "waxy" before, but didn't get it until I saw his buds. I had never seen anything so large or so crystalized before. His shit was bendable, sticky and wax-like. He said that the plants in Jamaica are literaly trees that you can climb. His shit came from Jamaica, he said. Not sure how he got it, but it was some insane monster weed I had never seen before in dimes, eights or bricks.

Other than that, I've had red hair, purple hair, you know all the names that get tossed around like chocolat thai or creeper and chronic. I noticed differences, sure, but one thing remained the same: I always got retarded and the retardation always leads to paranoia.

― Scaredy cat (Natola), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:26 (twenty-two years ago)

NOTE: the change occured after bad acid trips. Before that, weed was easy for me to handle. Since then, about a decade ago, weed has always been tinged with paranoia and confusion.

― Scaredy cat (Natola), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Interesting. I've never thought about it, but weed started making me paranoid too, right around the time I swore off acid. There could very well be some solid reason for that. Damned if I know what it is, though.

But serious pot still thrills me. I only get paranoid on the shitty shit.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:30 (twenty-two years ago)

You could have really good shit, and still not have had sativa. With all the types you've listed, I would assume that one of them woulda had to have been so, but who knows?...Not me.

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I wonder how much of being paranoid comes from the social and legal status that weed has. People of Amsterdam: do you get paranoid?

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Eh, so maybe I'm getting free shitty shit. That would stand to reason, I suppose. Plus, if you anticipate "the Fear", you're sort of setting yourself up for it, I suppose. Usually, when I smoke it's after being teased into it and I'm finally like, "Yeah, why not?" Next thing you know, I'm Silent Bob.

I have literally not had a connection for 7 years or so. I have no idea where to get it. None of my friends who get it occasionally are dealers or anything. I wouldn't even know how to go about getting really good stuff these days.

Ah well, it's not like I can read a book in a hot tub drunk either, so what the hell, right?

― Scaredy cat (Natola), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:34 (twenty-two years ago)

You can hear better.

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:38 (twenty-two years ago)

The brain is funny. My friend who turned into a monkey on mushrooms later did a half-hit of acid at a party, and when it kicked in he said, "Oh no, not again!" out loud, and I looked at his eyes, and he was obviously in the same place as he had been that fateful night. Saying the same things, even, babbling about No Exit. Something about hallucinogens had made a permanent connection to that state he had once been in. And pot is a mild hallucinogen. Something to consider.

That friend was on CNN last week, BTW. Got a good 10 minutes to argue with one of those "family values" types. I love that guy.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Saturday, 28 June 2003 06:39 (twenty-two years ago)

on pot : withdrawn, silent, "paranoid"
on junk : annoyingly overconfident, annoyingly verbose, busy busy busy. doesn't fuck up my motor skills so i can do all kinds of stuff quickly & efficiently. yes i could go on all night about how great that stuff is
speed : as above, i never use the stuff tho
on hallucinogens : unpredictable combination of all the above. i can play drums *really* well on em.

― duane, Saturday, 28 June 2003 07:42 (twenty-two years ago)

( what i can "do" on pot, not v. much, & that pretty clumsily)

i'm with you scaredy. the only thing i can do stoned is watch tv and eat or sleep. and then i don't remember what i saw anyway. so i don't smoke pot.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 28 June 2003 09:59 (twenty-two years ago)

some people love to go out and do things whilst high. I'm not one of those people. I tend to feel very cold after smoking up, so I usually end up under blankets on the couch or in bed. I love reading magazines...perfect for short attention spans, but I can handle books too. If I'm the least bit tired (always) I'll go right to sleep after reading. If I'm wide awake, then I'll end up cleaning the house (you forget the drudgery) or dancing like a fool in the living room. I'm not big on TV unless it's something that could use a little enhancement...I tend to get very noise-sensitive and TV sound is never quite good enough for my ears then. I don't like getting outrageously stoned...I usually have just a bit before bed to help me stop thinking about all the shit I need to do at work.

― teeny (teeny), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:31 (twenty-two years ago)

What the fuck?! Stoned sex is great. All the sensations feel twice as strong, it lasts longer, and the climax is incredible.

I've found that I can do most things pretty well when I'm stoned. Some things I even do better. Other things I do much worse.

― Andrew (enneff), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:44 (twenty-two years ago)

I love listening to music and eating food when stoned. I can't recall how many times I've said "wow, this is the best x I've ever heard/eaten".

― Andrew (enneff), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:48 (twenty-two years ago)

i hate stoned sex.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:49 (twenty-two years ago)

actually sex tripping is crap too, in the sense that it doesn't happen cos the idea of it seems so comical and then partner gets paranoid i am laughing at them.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:50 (twenty-two years ago)

all sex i've had in an altered state has been shocking.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:54 (twenty-two years ago)

shocking good or shocking bad?

― stevem (blueski), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:58 (twenty-two years ago)

shocking bad. shocka.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Saturday, 28 June 2003 10:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Weird. Maybe it's just been good because I've been in a really stable, relaxed sexual relationship with the person I was doing it with. I can imagine with a partner whom you don't have any/much experience with (when there are all sorts of strange paranoias and neuroses anyway) it might be pretty wack.

― Andrew (enneff), Saturday, 28 June 2003 11:35 (twenty-two years ago)

tripping sex can be truly magical and somewhat mystical
junk sex takes ages to get anywhere and if you do its like oops was that it?
pot sex tastes bad but feels good sometimes if youre comfy with the one yr doin it with recipe for paranoia if its someone yr not sure bout tho
pissed sex = sometimes disatrous choices deeply regretted when sober
speed sex - see junk sex

― hellbaby (hellbaby), Saturday, 28 June 2003 11:52 (twenty-two years ago)

oh no cos i was stoned i didnt answer the question as i was diverted.
so things you can do stoned ... great for playing music particularly bass and drone electone. cooking, vacuuming, washing dishes and gardening. dog walking also.listening to other people making music, driving long distances ,making up riffs,having baths (sometimes simultaneously), writing, reading, laughing,photograph taking,painting,drawing etc etc etc

Speed sex takles ages to get anywhere? Are you kidding? It may last a few minutes longer than usual, but it gets somewhere pretty damn quick. Gets right to it, actually. And stays there, at full throttle, until its over. And then you can do it again! Speed is awesome!

― Andrew (enneff), Sunday, 29 June 2003 02:07 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think I was ever not stoned freshman year of college.

You know, also noticed that I didn't have nearly as much paranoia when I started smoking as I do now. Like, for the first couple years it was great, I could go anywhere. But then I started getting really paranoid, and when I was stoned I couldn't go out in public or even be around people I didn't know that well. I wonder if it has something to do with that reverse tolerance thing where long-time smokers actually require less weed to get high than they used to?

The enormous generalization of calling all pot smokers boring is like the second most annoying thing in the world, after conservatives that constantly say that liberals are "whining".

― Dan I., Sunday, 29 June 2003 02:25 (twenty-two years ago)

i don't think that's the generalisation being made here. but you can hardly argue talking about being stoned is any more interesting than talking about being drunk or talking about, i dunno, being at work..

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Sunday, 29 June 2003 02:28 (twenty-two years ago)

you're right, it's not, sorry. And I don't argue that talking about being stoned is more interesting than talking about being drunk, but I do think that pot smoking stories are unjustly maligned (but only relative to other chemical ingestion stories). People will listen (or at least put up with) someone talking about what they did when they were drunk, but it seems to be in vogue to go out of one's way to point out how boring pot stories are, with lots of exaggerated yawning and eyeball rolling.

― Dan I., Sunday, 29 June 2003 02:34 (twenty-two years ago)

i was not "calling all pot smokers boring" dan, but having to wade through every-activity-known-to-man-that-can-be-performed-whilst- stoned is.

― Chris Radford (Chris Radford), Sunday, 29 June 2003 02:34 (twenty-two years ago)

So I had a friend in high school who tried to teach me to get stoned "right." He was a hyper-active little stoner geek who was high morning, noon and night of every day, yet got straight A's, was involved in various clubs and extracurricular activities (including Track! WTF?) and was just funny and energetic as hell always. I smoked the stuff and I became a blob of twitchy and jittery yet uncommunicative nerves.

I just recall with amusement his efforts to make me get "outside my head" while stoned. "C'mon, Julie, focus, focus, look at this, do that ..." and I'd be like "Uhnnngggghh ...." and stare at the wall. I wish there were videos.

― jewelly (jewelly), Sunday, 29 June 2003 02:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Chris, you're right.

― Dan I., Sunday, 29 June 2003 03:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Look, I think all psychotropic drugs do is intensify parts of your personality that are already present. It has everything to do with what you bring to the drug experience. If you tend towards being a somewhat thoughtful, introspective person, it's unrealistic to expect pot will do anything more than amplify that mode of engagement with the world. I've known plenty of people who tend toward the hyperactive, who smoke pot and still are bouncing off the walls.

I know in my own case when I get high in social situations, say a party or whatever, the things that interest me - music, images, uh just freaking myself out in general - become even more interesting to the point where I do become more withdrawn. But yeah that tends to create a kind of paranoia that will feed on itself if you allow yrself to focus on it; like, "man I really shouldn't sit in this chair and listen to this record, I should get up and go talk to those people over there".

I think the point is, instead of hang-wringing over this pot-induced behavior we ought to recognize these as perhaps just latent personality traits. If the goal was to become more sociable, secure, confident whatever, I think we'd do well to snort some coke or something. If we're smoking pot because we want to get "inside our heads", amplify our perceptions, we shouldn't be surprised if we get all quiet and withdrawn.

this ranks as the most boring thread in history. so everybody does stuff when stoned. thank fuck we worked that out.

From now on, I am going to pipe in every thread that does not interest me only to point out how boring it is. I feel this is much easier than simply clicking the back button in mid-realization of my lack of interest. In fact, I don't see any reason to stop there. I'm just going to interrupt people on the street and let them know what I think of their conversation. I can't wait to bump into the next unsuspecting proud new mom with her "cute" baby stories.

Well, this makes no sense. New moms aren't pregnant. If they are, they're not very "new". Also, people who don't get stoned, don't typically have stoner antics.

I agree with SC and oops - this is a thread about what one can do stoned FFS, if it bores you don't complain about it.

Gah its like people who move into Fitzroy next door to the pub, and then complain and get it shut down cause the music is too loud...

One thing this made me think of though - I too dont understand why people zero in on stoners banging away as boring when, if indeed ILX is anything to go on, booze is the king of topics (there is whole BOARDS on drunkenness ffs).

It's kinda strange because I went through the exact opposite experience recently - all my raverbunny mates thought me and drinking was either dull or annoying, but they could harp on about "how mashed I was on pills" for hours in great detail and complain about how pills are way to expensive compared to london and how hilarious it was that their mate passed out naked in the hallway at 3am... but somehow, I'm the one who is annoying.

'...it seems to be in vogue to go out of one's way to point out how boring pot stories are, with lots of exaggerated yawning and eyeball rolling...'

That might be because there is still this self-congratulatory air that surrounds dope smokers, this surety that they are so bloody cool and so bloody interesting and anybody who isn't fascinated by them is on some lesser level. It makes the stories sound a lot like 17-year-old boys bragging about their first bonk.

I can roll the best spliffs when stoned. Or I used to be able to, I haven't rolled up for over a year now because of the complacency and paranoia that smoking brings (Although a friend gave me a bit the other week and I had a tiny bit in my bong. I fell asleep watching a video, but did have a fantastic nights sleep)

Things I can do stoned: Fall Asleep. Make really intricate drum patterns in sequencers. Be very uncommunicative. Play Nintendo.

I cringe thinking of how much time and money I wasted on draw in my younger days. But then I think I would have only spent it on drink instead if I hadn't discovered the joys of smoking.

eatin when youre stoned sucks. at least for me. I get such drymouth that i drink a lot of water and the combination of that and eating makes me feel like a bloated worthless lump.

― AaronK (AaronK), Friday, 19 August 2005 12:03 (twenty years ago)

I wonder how much of being paranoid comes from the social and legal status that weed has. People of Amsterdam: do you get paranoid?

I think it has little to do with the legal/social status of weed. It depends on the situation, really. Sometimes I get really paranoid and freak out. It's really awful, it's like I'm stuck in this loop I can't get out of. I usually just go to bed and pull the blankets over my head. The day after I decide never to get stoned again. I don't stop of course. I don't get stoned often but I still love it and wouldn't want to miss for the world. Then again I don't think I'll get stoned after I have my baby. I already worry about *neglecting* my child and she/he's not here yet! hah. How ridiculous.

I loved getting stoned when it was snowing in March. There was snow everywhere and noone around. It was dark but the moon shone on the blankets of snow. So great. I was tempted to get naked and roll around in the snow... No, just kidding.

I think it has little to do with the legal/social status of weed. It depends on the situation, really.

But it being illegal is part of the larger situation one is in. If in the back of your mind you're worried you might get caught, it's only natural to become paranoid. I don't believe that pot changes one's mood; it just amplifies what is already there.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 19 August 2005 19:08 (twenty years ago)

for me it's more of the social stigma attached to it. one of the things i CANNOT do is run into acquaintances in public when I'm stoned. I get all paranoid about if they can tell, and if they can, what they think.

― matlewis (matlewis), Friday, 19 August 2005 19:17 (twenty years ago)

I got stoned on my own the other night and here's what I did:

1. Reminded myself that I had five minutes to put the chicken in the oven.
2. Drank a glass of water
3. Tried straightening a picture frame on the bedroom wall, impossible!
4. Remembered that I had to put the chicken in the oven! Oh my god! Look at watch and realize only 1 minute has passed since I first reminded myself.
5. Put on Sonny Rollins and it freaked me out because I kept thinking the saxophone was an angry car horn outside the house.
6. Turned on PS2 but forgot to switch on tv and so did not ever play ps2.
7. Remember again about the chicken! Oh no, better do it. Look at my watch and realize that it is only JUST time to put chicken in oven and that all this stuff has only happened in the space of five minutes, even though it seemed like a couple fo hours.
8 Stare at chicken. Gross.
9. See banana on top of fridge and eat it. Tastes sharp and horrible.
10. Remember about the chicken! Slide chicken into oven and feel relieved.
11. Wife arrives home. Don't feel like telling her I am stoned so try to act normal. Say "I PUT THE CHICKEN IN THE OVEN ON TIME". She looks at me funny.
12. Alex In SF calls. We talk about music and Canada and I want to tell him that I am stoned, but stoned logic tells me that I should not. I make what I think are several hilarious "jokes' but Alex does not respond. Am I not funny? Are these even "jokes" per se? I don't know.
13. Eat chicken.
14. Fall asleep.

The last time I got stoned, it was weed I scored from a stranger at Lollapalooza, and my paranoia was entirely to due with "who is this kid? why was he so eager to give me this weed? maybe he laced it with something! wait, where did he go?" etc.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 19 August 2005 20:11 (twenty years ago)

If I could actually seriously address the inital question though, I kind of agree with the guy. I thought I'd listen to music, play some ps2 maybe even read...all impossible! And w3333d always leaves me in a grouchy mood the next day if I smoke too much.

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 19 August 2005 20:27 (twenty years ago)

anything that requires focus on a single thing, weed has a good chance of aiding you. anything that requires multi-tasking and/or maintaining a train of thought for more than a few minutes, eg driving, learning a process, it will most likely get in the way.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 19 August 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

the last time i got stoned i spent 20 minutes frantically looking for my cell phone which was in my pocket

i wanted to play tetris

― strng hlkngtn, Friday, 19 August 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

I have only the vaguest recollections of the last time I got stoned (in fact I bet there are certain Toronto ILMers who recall the evening better than I do, ahem.) So I can't do very much I guess. Other than pass out.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 19 August 2005 20:50 (twenty years ago)

Also I can eat cookies. Lots of cookies. I can't watch anything very complicated TV shows though. Or British stuff. Or comedies. I can beat the pants off everyone at Sopranos trivia games though. That was a revelation.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 19 August 2005 20:52 (twenty years ago)

define "beat the pants off"

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Friday, 19 August 2005 20:55 (twenty years ago)

In this case it = win easily!

I don't think so...

last time I saw jaymc it was too fucking cold to even move, let alone achieve anything like that. We drank a fish beer.

stoned masturbation is pretty fucking awesome.

I tend to listen to my ipod and with every song, I think 'omigod this is so deep, such a beautiful melody, wow, this is really amazing... oooh another song! wow, this is so deep, such a beautiful melody, wow, this is really amazing...'

I also eat many cheez its.

see masturbation is something that improves with deep focus on one thing and forgetting the past and future. that and drumming. and eating cookies.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:20 (twenty years ago)

cooking is a very good stoned activity. note to Adamrl: just make sure you have a timer or two at all times.

― Wiggy (Wiggy), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:21 (twenty years ago)

really? i can't imagine cooking would be very fun stoned. i'm always letting water fill up in the sink while stirring something in a pot and still have vegetables to chop on the table.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:23 (twenty years ago)

yeah cooking is only fun while stoned for me when there's a bunch of people in the kitchen and each one can focus on a specific task.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:24 (twenty years ago)

I wouldn't let my stoned self use a knife.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:24 (twenty years ago)

I can't cook while stoned - it's a major feat for me to nuke a corndog... and yes, I did chow through that box of wheat things, it's true, but I prefer cheez its. And armenian string cheese. And chocolate. And corndogs. Oooh, chips!

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:26 (twenty years ago)

I somehow manage to stay really focused and everything stays very orderly. It is an activity that I enjoy anyway, and being baked just adds to the fun of it all.

― Wiggy (Wiggy), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:26 (twenty years ago)

If "cooking" includes making a PB&J sandwich - then I may have cooked on occasion stoned.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:29 (twenty years ago)

Oh yeah I can spread stuff on other things (and sprinkle other stuff on top of that) when stoned. So I can cook too, I guess.

Nah, you gotta try the real deal, not just PB&J. Doesn't have to be too elaborate, something like stew is good. Browing the meat= EZ, cutting vegetables= EZ (big pieces). seasoning, the usual so = EZ. Where's you spirit of adventure?

I can only do stuff stoned if I do it immediately after smoking, then I can focus on it. If I leave it a few minutes it's not going to happen. I never get paranoid on weed but it does make me way too lethargic.

I mainly just like to listen to music and arse about on the internet. Which coincidentally is what I'm doing right now!

I might make a spliff now, come to think of it...

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:43 (twenty years ago)

I don't do it as much as I used to, but when I do it usually goes like this:

First of all, I never smoke with other people. Always on quiet nights at home.

1. Listen to slow, beautiful, intricate music.
2. Read something (sometimes ILX), while listening to hypnotic music
3. Watch Mr. Show
4. listen to more music
5. Watch more Mr. Show
6. Play a video game
7. Smoke more.
8. Listen to more music.
9. Go to sleep.

re: driving stoned - I don't have a car so this is pretty much never an issue, but if I've got a long drive ahead of me (ie, rental car for road trip) tokeage becomes a necessity. Driving the 5 or the 101 is just too goddamned boring and repetitive otherwise. Plus it makes the scenery more enjoyable.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 19 August 2005 22:03 (twenty years ago)

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 19 August 2005 22:04 (twenty years ago)

well I've never had an accident or gotten a ticket. and like I say, I never drive. Pretty much the only time I drive is when I'm driving to LA/San Diego (the aforementioned 5 or 101 S route) or up to Portland (which is a little trickier, but its really nice to pull off in the redwoods and light up and hike around for awhile)

Recently I did this with a mixer and like 4 different effect loops all feeding back through the mixer. So fun.

thai pizza?!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Saturday, 20 August 2005 05:02 (twenty years ago)

Should I get high and post here?

Also, it is urgent and key to RECORD EVERYTHING because you will come up with something brilliant that you won't be able to reproduce if you have to get up and plug in your recording device.

Of course the last time I did that, Audacity fucking crashed. :((((

I should get high and make english muffin pizzas.

― I'm Hi, Jared Fogle (ex machina), Saturday, 20 August 2005 05:04 (twenty years ago)

yes thai pizza from your friends at california pizza kitchen. mmm this is good. i'm such a good cook.

english muffin pizzas? sounds questionable. i'm only familiar with bagel pizzas which are so bitchin.
don't forget to pour some olive oil on them.
the exclamation mark on this my keyboard is broke so I cannot properly express just how tasty this pizza is right now.

why do people sleep when i want to drum? pretty inconsiderate. i think i'm gonna go outside and listen to the thunder.

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 20 August 2005 05:22 (twenty years ago)

My favorite thing to do:

1) Get sammich and fancy yuppie juices (Nantucket Nectars)
2) Go to park with cicadas
3) Smoke weed
4) Listen to music (Rovo, Can, Terry Riley, whatever) on headphones low enough to get the cicada noise mixing in.
5) Eat sammich; drink juice.

going to a movie, esp a 3D Imax one, is good, but now they show so many previews that I'm sober by the time the opening credits begin. same thing with going to an amusement park but then having to wait in line.

OOPS, BRING POT BROWNIES

― I'm Hi, Jared Fogle (ex machina), Saturday, 20 August 2005 05:40 (twenty years ago)

OK BUT THE ONE TIME I TRIED TO MAKE THEM THEY DIDN'T WORK. but at least it still resulted in brownies. and my roommate had left a case of 40s in the fridge.
actually i never felt much any time i had pot brownies.
you know how one of the arguments against weed is that smoking it is harmful? well if it was LEGAL betty crocker could sell Doobage Oil and Land O' Lakes could sell Herb Butter and Gatorade could sell Stonerade and we wouldn't need to smoke shit maaaaaan.

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 20 August 2005 05:48 (twenty years ago)

if you want to make brownies, it's best to use leaf. Just throw like a supermaket bags worth of leaf into a pot with a few hundred grams of butter and boil the shit out of it all day. It'll stink out the entire neighborhood, but it's worth it.

In answer to the question, make delicious banana crepes

― Seuss, Saturday, 20 August 2005 07:02 (twenty years ago)

I think it has little to do with the legal/social status of weed. It depends on the situation, really.

But it being illegal is part of the larger situation one is in.

I dunno, I just don't worry/think about it. It's not like the police will break down my house or something. Or that they'll come into a club... Actually they might do, but, fuck it, I don't worry about that. Maybe because in Belgium the police is pretty relaxed about it. If you do have a certain amount (over three grams) on you, then you get a warning.

I once got on ILX very very very drunk. It was fun. It was less fun crawling to bed an hour later. Even less so the next morning. Rhum. Hmmmm. I want a mojito.

Oh man I found out (rediscovered?) how much it sucks to smoke after drinking recently, but I was with good enough friends that I'm sure they'll forgive me a long bit of staring at my shoe and laughing to myself.

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Saturday, 20 August 2005 07:24 (twenty years ago)

I'm not saying that pot's illegality is the sole reason why one can become paranoid while on it, or that everyone who smokes it worries about being busted, but don't you think its illegality mixed with its social stigma mixed with its tendency to highlight one's hidden personality traits and exaggerate one's mood is a very probable cause of a user's paranoia?

― oops (Oops), Saturday, 20 August 2005 07:39 (twenty years ago)

Well, I can only speak from personal experience. The few times I got paranoid was because of other reasons that were completely unconnected to legality (thinking the other was mocking me for example). *shrug* But you're right, sometimes it could have a connection, only not for me. :-)

Answer to the thread question?
You can do anything stoned that you could do not stoned.

You just realise it's not worth the effort.

-inhale lagers

-play shoegaze guitar for days on end

-laugh at the lemon trees with nas

-play chess or Rome Total War all night then go for 5mile bike ride and get a coffee, then walk through the park and come up with stories for all the strangers who pass by

-basically whatever the fuck i want. but not all of the time.

― kephm (kephm), Saturday, 20 August 2005 16:20 (twenty years ago)

Chess or A&A stoned = always a good idea. Usually.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 20 August 2005 18:21 (twenty years ago)

I got mashed last night... and fell asleep on the couch at like 9pm on a saturday! :/ "just a nap", I said. Nick tried to wake me half an hour later and I mumbled "memmmerr still sleeping go 'way". And woke up again at 11 and was wide awake til 4am, watching Rage (music tv show) and being unamused at QotSA's musical selections.

Me and a couple of mates did some E's and bonghits last night. It was great.

i hate falling asleep in the evening stoned, and waking up at midnight feeling all shivery, and the evening's gone, and you're not all that tired anymore, but everyone's gone to bed...

You don't need to be stoned to do that, Stevie!

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Saturday, 8 October 2005 14:53 (twenty years ago)

i know! but when i do it stoned, i've wasted weed as well as my time..

― foxy boxer (stevie), Saturday, 8 October 2005 15:20 (twenty years ago)

I'll tell you what I can't do stoned - go down the pub. I just sit there finding it impossible to make out what people are saying other than "waffle rhubarb waffle waffle rhubarb" and eventually give up trying. I then stare into space trying to get the last song I heard before leaving the comfort of my house out of my head, only to find that someone I haven't seen in donkeys is suddenly very eager to talk to me whereas all I can do is go "Hi, yeh, no I'm not up to much... Sorry sorry, I had a spliff before leaving the house and I'm a bit... well, fucked... What was the question? Oh yeh yeh, I'm cool. How are you?" etc...

i used to regularly play football stoned, possibly taking inspiration from the reggae boyz. it was usually quite good except for when i took my turn in goal (we are a democratic 5-a-side team) as i would invitably be thinking about something random - or nothing at all - at the points when the opposition were in attack. so i would just be standing there looking vacant as the ball flew into the back of the net... i'd be like, "uh?"

i don't play stoned very often these days.

― this is sicilian medieval thuggery (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 19 October 2005 23:07 (twenty years ago)

here's what I did last night on weed. I drank a few beers at my friend from works place, first time over there. when we came in, we parked his car in the garage (mine was on the street) and went into the house from a door in the garage, the garage door closed behind.

so, when I left, it made sense to me to leave the house through the same door I came in. I opened the door, closed it behind me, and stood around for a while trying to figure out why it was pitch black outside and where my car was. after a little bit, I figured out I was in his garage. so then I stood around a while trying to figure out if I should try to figure out how to open the garage door (one solution) or go back into the house (defeat). I eventually decided to go back into the house. so I went in and they were watching the door already, laughing at me and I was like "duude how the fuck do I leave yr house?????"
