Really, what's so great about weed?

dope is more calming and euphoric than weed, acid is more euphoric and psychedellic. thats why these are considered harder drugs- they hit you harder... and thats why weed is looked at as a weak drug or, by some, not a drug at all. i have done shrooms and opiates a lot but i still find lots of enjoyment from weed. its just chill. dont expect a big bang. its just something to pass the time... like cigarettes for some people
 
Pot blowz. Seriously though your brain might just not like having cb1 and cb2 receptors partially activated. I didn't like it and tried to force smoking it everyday for 3 years. Didn't work. You either like it or you don't. If you don't, don't force it.

Someone said something about tolerance, but that's stupid imo. Your just getting used to dealing with being high and your getting a tolerance to it. You're not actually liking it.

I think pot is more of a brain scrambler than a drug that makes one feel better. Can't think fast and clearly enough on it. But in the end it depends on the person.
 
Well, if you find opioids more relaxing than cannabis (I find the opposite to be true, myself) maybe you should try using cannabis for its sense enhancing properties. Being stoned enhances your experience of the pleasures of taste, touch, and musical appreciation. Try getting high before a big meal, and then trancing out to some intricate rhythmic music afterwards...

I enjoy doing this myself. Especially after a long day of work. =D
 
if youre lookin for some wild ass shit make some fat ol brownies theyll blast your ass proper
 
Nice post, hazed.

I agree with those who said it might just not be for you. Personally I love it, find it more enjoyable than MDMA or opiates, and more sustainable than a heavy LSD/boomer habit. I'll trip from time to time but weed is a regular thing.
 
I can relate to the OP only in the sense that I have built an unbelievable tolerance to thc in the last few months. Like, smoke a dank joint to myself and be a little stoned for 45 minutes kind of tolerance.

BUT with the exception of my first time smoking, when I started out (like the first 20 or so times I would estimate) I actually did get to the point where, looking back, the effects were pretty psychedelic.

Like looking at my friends and thinking how they looked like clay-mation characters, and the rest of the room was that weird card board looking stuff they use for the backgrounds. And thinking that we were all in a mickey mouse cartoon when we were all really just standing and smoking a joint, and I was the jackass standing there laughing his ass off and acting like steamboat willy. That's just a taste. Hardcore shifts in perception imo

And euphoria. Oh baby it was euphoric the first few times... =D And eating was so new and exciting. Ate a whole box of vanilla wafers and pretty much splooged in my pants...

But now, yes, I agree it's no big deal for me to light up a spliff and go about my day :\...
 
I really like to smoke ganja everyday, and like to always change varieties too so Im not stuck with the same flavor for to long, But cannabis is awesome because it has so many varieties of flavors and highs and always goes good with a acid trip, for me its essential when tripping:)

A good sativa is a nice way to start the day, a stoney indica a good way to call it a night.

Then again for some people weeds just not there "thing" - no worries!
 
i think the mediocrity is exactly why so many people like weed. It has a variety of effects, but theyre not too strong so you can go about your day if you keep the dosing right. I used to LOOOVE weed, but not so much anymore. It definitely is great for enhancement. Nowadays the only reason i smoke usually is to eat, go to a movie, or listen to music in bed. The music aspect is awesome if you can just lay with your eyes closed and relax your mind enough you will trip.

You should also make a strong brownie or cookie and that will for sure give you what youre looking for. Most of the time i eat weed its too strong. The first time i tried it i made a cookie and like 5 hours later i was so high i had to go to bed and was laying there hallucinating cave painting videos on the ceiling. And if i moved around my vision would just turn into a blur of colors and i would have to stop moving and focus on one point for a few seconds until everything calmed down. Try it out man.
 
I think my expectation were just too high...

As I said in the OP, popular culture tends to circulate a lot of false ideas and myths about weed. After that you expect it to produce some wacky trippy state...

In fact, it's just a chill-out drug, not something that will blast you, especially if you're used to more "serious" drugs (acid, MDMA).
That's the number one reason why cannabis should be legalized: it really isn't a big deal...

It can put you in a wacked out trippy state. This happens rarely for me and most people I know.

Weed can definitely 'blast' me. I've used LSD and other psychedelics pretty regulary over the past two years.

Chill out and have a good time, by your self or with mates. Whenever I smoke with some friends we're all laughing most of the time.

have you tried smoking on lsd?

I find once I start to build a tolerance joints are not worth it unless in a social setting. Bongs hit me much harder, and I end up using less weed.

Do you mean a water filtered bong? Because chances are, that's placebo effect. MAPS has demonstrated that joints are more efficient and require less weed to get the same amount of THC when compared to water bongs/pipes.

Yes, a water filtered bong. They definitely get me much more stoned than joints. Most people that I smoke with also agree. Joints are still enjoyable, they just don't hit me as hard.

I couldnt give a shit what MAPS has demonstrated, its common knowledge by anyone who has compared the two methods, concentrated hits of thc thru a water bong get you fair more blazed then a joint.
 
concentrated hits of thc .


"concentrated hits of thc" OH MY!!!

Application is very much an individual preferance, we are talking about phycological effects here, and apparently no one has heard of such a thing as "OMFGVASTFUCKINGHOLYCHRISTSHIT" variables involved in the application of cannabis.

Argue all you want, your just shooting a dead horse. (entertaining but pointless)
 
try eating it or give up

Sounds to me like you don't like weed. I would consider not smoking it, butif you have not eaten it yet make strong but butter and eat a large dose. If you eat enough you will get way higher than you ever could smoking it, esp. if you have a low tolerance.

I've been trying to get something out of weed for some time, now.
I have access to supposedly high quality stuff: Pure Power Plant, Northern lights. Also tried hash (sensi star pollen, grade AAAA).
I smoke all this in a water bong.

Well, all I ever got from all this is a "buzz", really nothing special.
I thought weed would provide relaxation, euphoria but it really doesn't hold a candle to opiates as far as relaxation is concerned. Is it supposed to be psychedelic? Not really when you're used to LSD, I guess.
It doesn't make me talkative that much, don't see much cognitive effects either (doesn't make "ideas flow more easily").

In a word: weed just doesn't impress me. I don't see the point. When I take another drug, I know exactly what I get: LSD (visuals, psychedelic effects), MDMA (strong euphoria, connection with others), opiates (deep relaxation).
But with weed? It seems like it provides many of the above effects, albeit in a very dull way. It's kinda relaxing but not that much, kinda stimulating but not that much, slightly psychedelic...
I'm always disappointed, it never rocks my world.

I'd like to understand why so many people seem worship weed... There is all that folklore around it, all those movies that make it seem supremely cool to smoke pot.

But really, it kinda sucks compared with other drugs. Or maybe it's me, maybe I don't smoke it right, or don't smoke enough (I try to smoke as much as possible though)... What do you think?
 
joints might be more effective, but usually you lose so much smoke from the cherry that you probably break even at best when its all said and done. plus bong hits are easier on the lungs, you can take in more smoke, and it doesnt smell nearly as bad.
 
Every time I smoke weed I usually have 0 tolerance, since it is usually always 2 weeks or more between the times I do it. I usually get translucent visual overlays to my vision that are colorful and intricate. They take forms of moving patterns and shapes, and it's something I imagine that HPPD would be like maybe. I also get closed eye visuals, like what I get from DXM trips, although not as intense. If I smoke a indica I will get a powerful, relaxing body buzz.

So weed is good for me. I couldn't see myself enjoying it if my tolerance went up.
