Cannabis

[nailit]

Can anyone tell me, just what is the allure of cannabis?
Its horrible stuff. Smoked it a few times (probably less than half a dozen) when I was younger....experimental and all that... but it never did anything to write home about.
Last night I had a couple of friends around (one of whom smokes it occasionally) and succumed and had a joint, Bearing in mind that I havnt even smoked in 6 months I was feeling a little miffed over a personal issue and partook of the illegal substance. God I wished I hadnt!
First of all (after my mates had left) I got the munchies and my diet went down the pan as the bacon went into it.
Over an hour later, I tried to concentrate on a tv prog only to forget what went on before a few seconds earlier.
I then went to bed and tried to 'chill' while listening to the radio...except that the radio was talking to me. (that was a weird feeling)
Just what is the thing with weed....its bloody horrible stuff.
Nothing against it, just not for me.

It affects people differently. In my younger days it would make really giggle. But it's far more dangerous than people think IMO-if you are vulnerable to it.

[ummmm]

Haha. You have to be careful with it. I used to smoke it on a Friday and decided it was pretty crap. haven't smoked it in about 10 years.

I got serious munchies. I'd eat the crumbs from the toaster...

I smoked resin occasionally in my youth & again when I got divorced. I've always found it very over rated, even more so when i smoked skunk. It made me violently sick & I couldn't sleep for a couple of night.....never touched it again

//It affects people differently//
Certainly seems that way
//skunk. It made me violently sick & I couldn't sleep for a couple of night//
The one time I smoked skunk, I woke up with aching ribs from laughing the night before.
Ummmm, lol re the toaster, had the same with the sugar bowl, licked it dry.

The horrible sickly smell of weed is disgusting!

divebuddy, agree 100 percent, alcohol has caused me a lot more grief.

Never been near the stuff. The closest I have come to cannabis was subduing an employee who insisted (quite forcefully) on being paid early to pay off his dealer.
Another time reminding a different employee that he had left his gear in the gents.

In the very few times I've tried it, it used to knock me for six.

[ummmm]

Lol Nailit...That's when I decided I wouldn't touch it anymore.

[nailit]

Tried a lot of things in life but weed has never done anything for me except make me regret it, its horrible. Just cannot understand the 'pro' stuff about it.

[PankySmooch]

Also could never understand why all the cocaine users in the pub used to go into the cubicles two at a time

[ummmm]

put vaseline on the toilets.

It makes me very giggly / spaced out. Not overly enamoured but good for a laugh. I think the effect depends upon your basic personality i.e. It exaggerates it.

zacs, //I think the effect depends upon your basic personality i.e. It exaggerates it.//
I must be a greedy fat *** then....

[Zacs-Master]

Possibly. I have no idea.

[nailit]

makes me ravenous.

The best (naughtiest) time was smoking it on the steps of the town hall in a a small Spanish Peublo Blanco. Felt very decadent.

Grass used to make me giggle, but resin wiped me out and made me more anxious and paranoid than usual. I wouldn't touch it again. I know alcohol has its problems, but I (vaguely) know where I am with it.
