    I've been casually toying with the idea of taking up smoking weed regularly when I move to Vancouver in the Summer. Depending on what kind of job I get, I think it might be a fun thing to do once or twice a week.

    Also I'm so very comfortable in my complete and utter lack of interest to try any kind of chemical drugs. Totally not interested in chemically induced hallucinations or euphoria or malaise.

    when it comes down to stopping smoking weed for long enough for my system to clear (not very long; even though I smoke a ton, my extreme thinness means less fat cells for residual thc to store in) or borrowing my friend's Wizinator to pass a drug test

    I think I might go with the wizinator

    I dunno! On the one hand, there's obviously synthesized drugs (say, 2c-t-7) and obviously non-synthetic drugs (say, ayahuasca). However, there's a lot of room in between, and the distinction doesn't always make sense. For example, is distilling/concentrating a "chemical" process? Both hash and heroin are the result of 'distilling' less concentrated biological-origin drugs, but it seems like you'd probably only be okay with hash. And of course, the active ingredient in any biological-origin drug is of course synthesizable; for example, eating an eighth of mushrooms and taking 40 milligrams of 4-aco-dmt would be basically indistinguishable, because 4-aco-dmt is a prodrug for psilocin (ie, the body converts it into the same active ingredient as present in psychedelic mushrooms).

    Now, if what you feel is "I only ever want to use cannabis", well, that's fine and dandy, but it being non-chemical isn't a really strong justification for the position. Might as well just skip the rationalizing and chalk it up to personal preference.

    So, I had to go through all of highschool and college hiding the fact that I smoke weed. I made it a point to keep my grades up, be a productive member of society and never inconvenience anybody.

    ...and tonight I had to run out in the rain to throw away somebody else's drunkenly shit-stained underwear. I mean, I was doing laundry but there's just no way that was going to be saved. It looked like something a cow would do to the pair of briefs that killed its family. It was as though Jackson Pollock had been given the phrase "anal hate-crime" as a challenge.

    Fuck this gay earth.

    So it turns out 3 liters of coffee spaced evenly through your afternoon/evening is a good way to stay up writing a paper. Who'd have thought. Fuck I'm hungry, though. Miiiight have to make a 7/11 run for snackfoods after I painstakingly translate what I have of my narrative into French.

    This was me for a bit. Now it's back to being something fun, so yay.

    Though, it was always at least a little fun.

    Yeah you're right. I've had the same personalised distinction for many years now and I realise it's a bit ignorant. To quote Harold Ramis - "No pills, no powders. If it grows in the ground it's probably ok."

    It's a vast over simplification but I guess it's rung true with what I want to try? I've tried mushrooms and wouldn't care to try them again. I like weed because it's controllable and I like the simple, sleepy, laugh at everything high.

    it has to do with body fat and how often you partake

    fat dude that smokes only occasionally: probably a week or two, max

    fat dude that smokes daily: probably two months-ish

    I'm betting my system will take at least a month to clear, because bryar can tell you, I am lean like a handrail with a sixpack but I smoke daily so vOv

    also, he told me to take it an hour before bed, but the drug information says to take it immediately before bed. WHO DO I LISTEN TO

    I have no experience with Lunesta, but listen to your doctor.

    Lunesta had to put "immediately" in there so that they wouldn't be liable if someone took it and then drove their car or did something else equally moronic for an hour before going to bed.

    I am doing this very thing to join the Air Force.

    Smoked for about four years and I have yet to experience anything that can be called withdrawal or what not. Plus after doing it for so long the idea of not being tired every night because you couldn't resist the bong is an appealing thought.

    Still gonna miss that sweet, caring, nurturing plant.

    Coffee, near the end of your most recent smoking career, how high would you say a single bowl of good weed was getting you, 1 to 10?

    After smoking almost everyday for the last three or four months, my tolerance is so high that I'd have to smoke at least 3 bowls to really get a good buzz going for any longer than an hour

    whereas at the start of that four month period, I vaugely remember hitting my friend's steamroller in his car one night and being ludicrously high for a solid 5 hours before finally coming down

    I can't imagine how much I would have to smoke to stay lifted if I had decided to keep this habit going without break for another four months, let alone a year.

    i've been smoking without a break for like six years now and i still get stoned

    it's just a relaxing normal necessary part of the day i really look forward to, i'm barely intoxicated in any traditional way, or at least that's how it feels, when i smoke

    i mean the other night i smoked a giant blunt, a few big bong rips, and a bunch of vaporizer pulls with three friends and i was so high i looked like a smiling ass in public but that's pretty rare

    Coffee, near the end of your most recent smoking career, how high would you say a single bowl of good weed was getting you, 1 to 10?

    Even for veterans you're only gonna get as high as your smoking ability allows you too. I see tons of people say "Like man, I need *so and so* amount of bowls just to get, like, high man" when it's really because they are pussy smokers and take pussy hits.

    As for your question, I'll break it down;

    1 Pipe Bowl: usually didn't do much. I wouldn't consider myself "high," but I'd get the sensation that I just smoked but nothing beyond that unless it was a particularly potent strain. I enjoyed pipe bowls if I wanted to get a little toasty and go out for a night on the town. 6/10

    1 Joint: My least favorite way to smoke. Never been a fan because I never get much out of them. I like being able to absolutely rip what ever I'm smoking and joints usually tear when you inhale hard, so I didn't do these much. 3/10

    1 Bong Bowl: This is where the pros are at. If you know what you're doing, one of these will take you far. 8/10

    1 Bubbler/Steam roller: Grouped these together because they are equally awesome, especially standing bubblers. 7/10

    I definitely would not get high like I would four years ago. Me and my circle of buddies were all the same and had been smoking together since day one all those years ago. We're definitely capable of getting stoned off our asses though, just had to work for it.

    Anyways, one bowl I guess would average on a 6/10

    man how hard are you pulling on joints that they are being torn apart in the process

    that is not a very good joint

    also; where do you live? I assume the only people that can get away with smoking tons live in California but it's always cool when I'm wrong

    Metz that basically sounds like what I would do
