The Official "I'm High" Thread

You read the article, did you read the study?

this is the study the article is basing it's information off:
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ijc.29036/abstract

Here's their summary of results from the abstract. Read this.

"Weak associations between cannabis smoking and lung cancer were observed in never tobacco smokers. Spline modeling indicated a weak positive monotonic association between cumulative cannabis use and lung cancer, but precision was low at high exposure levels. Results from our pooled analyses provide little evidence for an increased risk of lung cancer among habitual or long-term cannabis smokers, although the possibility of potential adverse effect for heavy consumption cannot be excluded."



Not so straight cut, is it.

Far from definitive. Which means you had no grounds to say what you said and in the end, you are wrong.
 
Although there is one big flaw in all these studies. That being there is no distinction of type or quality of cannabis being used. So yes, there is evidence THC and CBD and other cannabinoids have certain anti-cancer properties. But we all know cannabinoid concentration changes significantly plant by plant or by how it's grown or even the time of day which it's harvested. So a study looking at data using your average run-of-the-mill weed might show very different results from a study using more medicinal grade pot that has very high content of cannabinoids like CBD which are known to have medical benefits which may counteract the ill-effects of the smoke. And the problem being almost all these studies are not controlled studies but rather using already existing data from those who smoke on their own where there really is no saying what quality of weed they have.

This could easily explain the variability in studies from those claiming "yes, there is absolutely correlation between smoking and cancer" to those that claim "no, it doesn't seem like there is much correlation".

2008 is fairly recent.

And what? I've backed up my point with many studies. Your point has been weakly backed up with one

I'm glad you came into the thread with those studies. It's important to keep an open mind and not to just latch onto the common thought " marijuana is harmless ". Equally as important, is to practice skepticism when it comes to studies and statistics in general.

I think anyone who smokes weed consistently and heavily, and doesn't think it negatively affects them in some ways, is either in denial, or they forget what it's like to be sober for longer than a couple days. There's a difference between taking weed medicinally and just being a stoner 24/7, and that's coming from someone who is pro-weed.
 
This conversation is too serious.

Things that are better.

-A nice cup of tea

-Hot tubs

-Looking at the stars

-Getting comfy with a blanket on the couch

-Laying next to a warm fire
 
I was scrolling through this page just laughing at how invested you both are in this argument. It's like the embodiment of this

yeah like we are so silly for caring about things. It's way more chiller to not care and just stare at the stars and be chill with good vibes right bruh? Like who even cares just smoke right?

how is calling someone out on the internet any different than calling someone out in conversation. Why is it all of a sudden lesser of an argument because it's on the Internet.

you must be really bad ass to be cool enough to stand by while people spread false information

damn I wish I knew you So I could be as cool as you and laugh at other people for being true.

damn your cool.

I woke up at 9 yesterday and started smoking with my friend at 10 and marathon-ed until 8:30 when she passed out. On my way home I stopped at the duck pond and passed out for half an hour, made it back to my friends room, fell asleep sitting up in a lawn chair for an hour, passed out in my room finally, and when I woke up for my ski alarm, I found out that my ride to get to Bridger for opening day fell through. I think I'm gonna go back to sleep now.

Nope, I just got back home to Denver yesterday and I already miss Bozeman. At least I'll be smoking really good bud for the next month

If you're ever back here and u miss that Denver quality hmu :)
 
Lavender is now my daily driver. First time ever yesterday that I had visual impairment on weed ever. It took three bowls of 23% lavender, two bowls of 32% Dutch treat and two dabs of 89% afgoo. Just had the wave affect inward and outward.
 
Being completely dankrupt and cleaning our your grinder just to vape a little bit of bud-dust and actually getting high is the most satisfying thing ever.

man seeing as some of the resorts got 4-5ft, I wonder how many individual snow flakes that makes up? like my fuckin brain just melts thinking about that shit.
 
In Tahoe for break, picked up a quad of girl scout cookies with my cousin when I was in san fran with eazeup (Uber for weed, crazy to a Minnesota boi). Hid tha loud in an antique pair of ice skates that I found hanging on tha wall in our rental cabin. Woke up today 3 days into the trip and its gone); which means rents woke up to look for it in the middle of the night. Takin it to a new lvl of oc parenting. I thot when I turned 18 this shit would stop. Fuk.

tbh terpines are a waste of space.

I love some good terpy sugar wax, and I ABSOLUTELY love pinene. Some good piney indica is my shit. In WA a lot of the reefer has gotten so good that you can get a solid 20%THC strain with high terpene % as well. I defintely understand where you are coming though with really high percentage extracts where they are approaching 100% THC.
 
For Christmas presents to my friends, I made chocolate truffles out of hard-as-hell burnt weed brownies. Blended them up into crunchy little rocks, mixed them with cookies and condensed milk. Coated them in chocolate and decorated them so legit. Most elaborate weed food I've ever eaten but soooo good; crunchy, chewy, sticky all at once, and pretty fucking potent. I call them Bingo Bronsons.

Was eating them while skiing on Christmas day; pretty sweet.

glad he finally has his own show.
 
Finally decided to buy my own instead of bummin off friends all day long.

Turns out rolling a J is fucking difficult. Got so frustrated I went out and bought a RAW roller, which was still frustrating to use. Finally got it to work and made my roll, didn't find out that the filter was in sideways until I was half way up the Paradise lift at Marmot.

So now I'm sober...

Just buy a pack of Raw's and roll the whole pack. Roll a j, dump the weed out, roll another one, until you get it. It's worth it, trust me. If you wanna really learn. my friends grandma (OG stoner grows hella pot) sat him down with a pack of papers and some coffee grounds and said if you learn to roll coffee grounds you can roll anything.

Or just buy a lil $10 bowl thats what I did thru high school.
 
I just found a tiny little quarter sized two piece grinder that fits perfectly into the trench of my MFLB had to get it.

Also I got a cheap aluminum three chamber no name grinder a while back and I'm always finding little flecks of the blue anodization in my bud. I'm thinking I might invest in a nicer one so does anyone have any suggestions? my friend has a one inch three chamber titanium no name one that I really like.

If you don't lose shit often get a Sharpstone. Probably will be double the price of the no name one but so worth it. I have one that I have had for over 5 years, just soak it in iso once a month and it will last forever. No broken teeth, still grinds smooth.

Also American Grinder Co and Cosmic are solid, and the AGC's are a little cheaper.
 
Had a "don't tell your mom" moment with my uncle and older cousin while skiing the other day. Didn't even know my cousin smoked (he's like 38 with a family) and he broke out the piece on the chairlift and passed it to my uncle. I'm thinkin "LAWL NO WAY they smokin weeed" then my uncle passes it to my 19 year old ass. First time I've ever smoked and skied somehow, and with the most unlikely people. Had quite a few beers in the lot as well before we departed. Makin me feel all grown up nd shit.
