Like Joe, I've never smoked anything. I have fallen into a gummy habit over the last while, though. I eat a 10mg gummy probably five times a week. Tonight, I ate a 10mg gummy like right when I got home from work at 5, then another at about 8.

So, yeah, that's where I'm at with it right now. It's probably a net positive, at least for these cold winter months

I haven’t touched it for a couple years. I was one of the early casualties of potent legal weed; it makes me too high and paranoid now.

That being said, if I still lived in Illinois where it’s legal, I have a feeling I would’ve largely replaced alcohol with more manageable doses of pot by now.

Most of my friends in my twenties were potheads. I smoked it occasionally, but mostly it just made me tired and jittery, and I usually wanted to go out and get hammered, but stoners don't like to go out. I kept some around for girls or whatever, but I never got what the big deal was.

Every day, pretty much. Though, usually edibles.

Haha you got me. I hate the term “straight edge” and think it implies some kind of deeply held belief system/lifestyle or moral ethos, which has nothing to do with why I abstain. Just too much baggage when all I mean to express is that I don’t drink or do drugs.

I respect it. It just surprises me when folks who are super into avant-garde/psychedelic/abstract art have never so much as taken a single puff. You're like Frank Zappa or some shit.

Edibles go hard. Argo is a heavy user. I also respect that, cos hell fuckin' yeah dud.

It would be cool if we lived in a world where you could say you were sober, but unfortunately we live in a world where people only use the word to mean "I don't drink."

Fucking idiots.

FWIW when I did the gummy, I definitely had the thought “oh so THIS is why stoner metal sounds like that”

Baggage there too, since it generally bears the implication that you “got” sober after being an alcoholic. Just no clean way to say this with current language, really.

No, but really though. It doesn't feel like a lot. I'd say right now I feel generally more carefree than usual with a slight sensation of physical heaviness (pleasant) all over but especially in my head. And I was snacking a lot before and really enjoying that.

It's not an exact equivalent but it feels like more than one beer but definitely less than three.

Huh. The "baggage" / recovery part of it never occurred to me. I've never infurred that before.
