    On the real tho, when I worked retail at a printing/shipping center, a guy came in and started puffing on a weed pen. It was so fucking annoying having to talk to, and eventually kick him out of the store, because he couldn’t wait to do that shit outside.

    I’ve smoked and vaped PLENTY over the years, I’d never use cannabis in a place of business. The fuck is wrong with people.

    The ol’ “doob tube”. Ahh, the memories. We thought we were being sneaky but it was more of a, “Congratulations, now your room just smells like dryer sheets and shitty weed, you fucking genius.” And we all just did that anyway.

    as a gen z i absolutely hate weed pens so much. they take 110% of the fun out of it. and they clog. and taste worse. and “uh hey do you have a charger my weed died” is just ??? no thank you.

    i prefer that apple pipe or literally any other stoner engineering and my sploof. you can put cute stickers and stuff on a sploof too. smoking weed is supposed to be an experience not a quick inhale off a metal rod and forgetting about it until it hits. if ur bringing a pen to a smoke sesh bye. take ur vape somewhere else :) rant over

      I mean if you just started smoking yeah. When you’ve been smoking for 10+ years not every session needs to be life changing. I’ll roll up a nice joint or pack a solid bowl for fun times when I want the “experience” but for normal getting high purposes the pen stays by my side

        oh for sure, but by experience i don’t mean life changing as much as i mean literally anything other than a hit off plastic and waiting for it to kick in, id rather do edibles at that point.

        my normal getting high purposes usually involve a super tiny crack pipe with a bowl that’s already half ash lol. i also just don’t like carts because of how different the smoke feels, so 99% of the experience i mean is probably related to the heat of the lighter or something lol idk

          That used to be my normal until I switched to carts and my lungs have thanked me every hit for years. I know that flower tastes better, but the added shit that comes with smoke isn’t worth it IMO. Personal preference is personal and all that, but yeah, there’s probably part of the particular experience that you relate to and is nostalgic or some shit.

          Well the good news is you are free to do edibles any time you like. Lots of people like vape pens. Please don’t gatekeep cannabis.

    One time, at a party in my house, a guy chugged his bear and then immediately started Macgyvering a pipe with the can. I was like “oh, been a while since I’ve seen anyone do that. Should I just get him some rolling paper?”. And then he put meth on the can.

    Very glad that my dumb ass probably has like 10% less plastic in my brain than most people my age because I never smoked out of cans. Thanks, paranoid teen me!

    I’m Gen Z and did all that shit. I still remember the VG extraction methods to make eLiquid with THC from YouTube. And then kingpens and brass knuckles and others became accessible. The good old times …

    Remember when Sobe bottles were glass and had the manufacturing weak point near the bottom you could smash out with a nail and a rock? They made excellent steamrollers.

    Curiously in the eighties coke was affordable only to folks richer than I am,vwho were critically white and didn’t usually get booked for nonviolent crimes.
