I live in California and would never bring it up at work. But I can talk about alcohol whenever I want. There is a difference still.
Why? Would could happen? 5 seconds of unpleasantness?
Or, you know, nights in jail, hundreds in bail money, lawyer, court fees, etc, all to fight a "intoxicated in public" charge.
Also, there are still those cops who carry little meth baggies that they'll later "find" in your pocket or car, and there are still those people who will hurt or kill you for your weed, money, or even your weed money. You're an easier target while high, and that's what scum loves to target, be it criminal or corrupt cop.
Yes, yes, not all cops are bad, etc etc. But just assume they are and will use anything they can against you. You'll be safer that way.
How? He said he was "allowed to use it" in that location?
Lots of things are legal, but the fine print gives cops all the "reason" they need to fuck with you.
And just so everyone knows, cops absolutely DO NOT have "quotas"!!!
They have PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS that they must meet, like bringing in more money than is spent on their paychecks so the police force can have a nicer ball this year than last. We need to beat last year's Dubai Ball, you guys.
Probably decades of fearing arrest if caught
Colorado was never that draconian though, was it?
And that should only cause you to pause for a few moments. Ultimately, it's legal as can be.
I don't smoke. I don't care if people do, but when my neighbors smoked, my house always smelled like reefer. To the point I couldn't keep my windows open at night because I didn't want my room to smell like burnt rubber/skunk all the time.
And that's why edibles are where it's at.
Edibles don't work on me and several other people I've met.
You made them wrong then
Lol FR eat a 500mg brownie and get back to me about how edibles don't whoa i can see space.
I have. Doesn't do anything to me. Several oral drugs don't. I believe I lack one of the enzymes needed to process it or something, I've read that a certain percent of people don't have a key liver enzyme for processing a lot of drugs.
Very interesting, could you ingest a similar enzyme and achieve the high?
What if you sublingually induct decarboxylated THC?
Im sorry to have doubted you.
But now i have questions.
Do you smoke weed regularly? I’ve heard if you’re a regular smoker edibles won’t affect you as much. I don’t know how true that is, but It seems to be the case for me at least. Edibles have zero effect on me, at most they just make me tired but never a high or even a buzz. If I want to feel the psychoactive effects I have to smoke.
Okay, so back of the envelope calculations here.
Let's take this recipe (plucked from Google and it was the first non-"diet" recipe) and make it weedy.
The recipe calls for 12 tablespoons of butter in a 9 ounce serving. That comes out to a 4 teaspoons per serving. That needs to have 500mg of THC in there. We're talking about putting 4.5 grams of THC into 3/4ths of a cup of butter.
Based on the prices at the dispensaries I was in this weekend, I can tell you that resin and shatter both have a concentration between 64% and 75%. We'll go with 70%. That means we'd need to put in about 6.5 grams of concentrate in to that aforementioned 3/4ths of a cup of butter.
The median street price for shatter was around $40/gram at these legal dispensaries. If we're in a prohibiting regime, add a 100% markup for the black market. This would be a $660 brownie recipe: $650 for the 7 ounces of concentrate (as concentrate was only sold in full grams at the dispensaries I saw) and $10 for the other ingredients.
Now, I don't know about you, but either you have some very generous friends or a shitton of disposable income.
Thats a decent recipe you have some things wrong there, but you messed up as soon as you assumed it would be "dispo live rosin".
If youre paying $40 a g for shatter, youre being overcharged. Even more so if youre not seeing price breaks when buying bulk.
Also a 200% mark up because "black market" is plain silly. Even street level has had to adapt their prices because of the overflow of dispensaries.
And finally, you can find 500mg and 1000mg brownies pretty regularly, at least out here, for about $50 and $80 respectively.
I don't make them, I live in a legal state captain assumptions.
Out of curiosity did you try multiple times?
Yeah I've done it a good couple of times. I have a bad track record with pretty much any drug that you ingest orally. It's probably something with my metabolism or liver enzymes. If I take like, a 1000mg edible it will affect me a little bit but smoking one small joint gets me higher than a 1000mg edible.
Definitely would be my preferred method of ingestion if I used it.
People can be very over dramatic. Someone could call the cops and than the cops have to show up and you have to deal with it even if you’re not doing anything wrong
Or possibly getting shot.
I’d say weed is more accepted than alcohol in Canada now. You can smoke in public (with a few exceptions) and I never get any looks. Unlike someone who is getting drunk in public will.
Yup, even here in Manitoba where you can’t legally smoke in public I think there’s a way higher tolerance for it from folks who might potentially call in a complaint than for booze. I also feel like I can be mostly open and honest about being a recreational user, pretty much on par with how I felt about discussing drinking, when I did drink; actually I think I probably get more of a reaction from people for saying I don’t really drink than I do for admitting to being a cannabis user.
I’d just go for a walk. No need to be especially covert, but don’t flaunt it either unless you want to risk a ticket, although I wouldn’t be too concerned.
I was wondering about this. I'm living in an apartment in a state that is legal recreationally. I haven't bought anything yet, but am thinking I'm limited to edibles, since I don't really have a place to smoke.
Pretty normal in California
