I'm a lightweight and when I was younger I was always afraid of how I would look if I let myself act high "too soon." So I always just sat there smiling and tried to enjoy it until a time that I felt was appropriate to act super high :) Because I'm awkward like that!

As I got a bit older, I realized that, as long as I'm not acting like an idiot, my friends didn't mind that I got high super fast--it meant more for everyone else!

There was one girl in our little circle who always managed to ruin everything, though. For one, she'd take hit after hit and hold it in her mouth, never drawing it into her lungs so that when she let it out it was dark grey, almost black smoke. Then she would spend the next day talking about how "bad-ass" she was for being able to out-smoke everyone else. All she ever did was waste it :(

The other side of her was to be IMMEDIATELY high if someone else felt high. She had to out-crazy everyone and if you were like "wow, I have the munchies" she'd be like "OMG I HAVE TO EAT EVERYTHING HAHA OMG CHOCOLATE AND CHIPS AND COOKIES AND MEEEEEEAAAAT! FEED ME!"

One time it got so bad that a friend of ours got fed up. She took one hit and then pretended she couldn't hear us when we asked her to pass. She just sat there laughing and holding a joint in her hand. Finally someone grabbed it from her and she then pretended to have a seizure. Another friend took a cup of water off of the table and dumped it on her, told her to grow the fuck up or gtfo. Suddenly she sobered up and thanked him for helping her.

When we had a "guest" join us who did not know about her nonsense, she pulled the same crap, pretending to be "trippin' off shrooms, dudes!" (exact quote) and the kid called the police when she "passed out." That was a fun day. Luckily I just walked home and let her mother deal with that whole scene.

Sorry for the long post, just annoyed with her shenanigans! The main reason we haven't talked in months :)

I hate people like this. Also hate people who sit in the shadows/behind the group and hog whatever the apparatus is. Especially when I'M smoking THEM out because they "feel stupid being alone" and never contribute.... .

Same here! I always have people offer to let me smoke off their bowl and I ALWAYS reciprocate. Whenever I pack a bowl all of the people who never share show up and just grab at it. Moochers! I don't care if you take one hit or ten, you always need to share! Some people must not have gone to Kindergarten :)

i have experience with ppl like that. in a session they are attention freaks who ruin the entire experience for everyone. Then the next day at bowling, they act the same way. after a while i realized this guy is just an asshole douche bomb.

Everyone should smoke weed (if they want to)! These people just don't understand how to enjoy it instead of trying to one-up everyone :P

Oh, I would never want to infringe on anyone's right to their own body. They should realize a substance that causes destructive interference in one's life instead of constructive growth is better avoided, though.

[–]hello_mellow 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Perhaps initially, but I feel like it's the responsibility of those around such a person to offer constructive criticism and try to help the awful individual to reform their personality and to suck less. Now, if that shit fails then fuck it; he or she is just broken.

[–]GeeThanks 4 points5 points ago

How can that be made feminine? "Cool story, sis"?

And yea, that's pretty much what I always told her :P She was just attention-seeking and any time a girl was around, she had to act ditsy and slutty (more "girly," as she put it) so guys would pay attention to her. It somehow worked, too :(

[–]hello_mellow 1 point2 points ago

I've got a friend who smokes almost an ounce a week. Smoking with him is a real drag because he gets pissed off if anyone else starts acting high, no matter if they've had 2 joints to themselves.

[–]Abra-Used-Teleport 12 points13 points ago

This is a... "friend"?

[–]hello_mellow 1 point2 points ago

The guy smokes an ounce a week, right? I imagine one who smokes less could easily and consistently get high just from being in the vicinity of a motherfucker like that.

[–]Abra-Used-Teleport 1 point2 points ago

That just doesn't sound worth it to me.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

He's had a tough time. He can only afford to buy that much weed because his dad died, for example. Nobody smokes that much unless they've got problems. He's not a bad guy, he's a good guy that's gone off track. If venting about it on the internet helps me to put up with him while I convince him to quit/cut back, then so be it.

[–]interventionn 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

...why?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think he just smokes so much that it barely even touches him anymore. So he resents it when people like me (I don't even think I've had an ounce total yet) get stoned and he feels the same.

[–]chungy 40 points41 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I rarely ever smoke in a group so I don't have this experience. Still, why is this so frustrating? I could see rolling your eyes or calling out the person in a humorous fashion, but I figure if the goal is got get high and happy and chill, putting yourself in that mental state early on seems like a good thing. Certainly better than if he smokes your shit and then is all "nah bro I ain't even high"

[–]M4tthias 18 points19 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's a needless cry for attention that doesn't generate positive energy among the group in any way except for that one individual. It's a true mark of a genuinely selfish person.

[–]yosemighty_sam 62 points63 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Or the mark of someone under socialized, who is only going to get worse if he's bullied for being under socialized. Be nice to the saplings. We were all saplings once.

[–]chungy 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I guess I understand... I don't think I'd like smoking in groups. Seems to be a lot of judgement and posturing and general less-than-positive group dynamic. Is this usually done by young people (and is that just because they're likely to be new to smoking, or due to overall immaturity)?

[–]Aysawlz 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Smoking in a group is fun, don't let posts here discourage you lol. Just when some takes one hit from a joint then starts saying shit like "im soo stoned, omg i have the munchies, dude i'm like floating!!!!!" you can see how that would be irritating.

[–]Maplebacon 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I only ever smoke in a group, and I can't imagine experiencing anything the same way without my pals around. Smoking alone sounds kinda lonely, from the opposite perspective.

[–]Aysawlz 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I do both, i prefer to smoke with at least one other person though to share the experience, but smoking alone has it's own upsides.

[–]Maplebacon 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

lol yeah, as a broke college student I don't usually have my own shit but even if I did, the first time I smoked was in a group and now I can't imagine it any other way!

[–]chungy 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well I don't always partake alone, but often with 1 or maybe 2 other people I know well like my boyfriend or sister. I really only ever smoke heavily with my boyfriend. It's a private sort of thing for me.

[–]Maplebacon 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, when I say 'group' I mean myself and my two closest friends. Sometimes there are others but it's mostly just us three at any given time. I'm still a sapling so since I've only experienced it with them, it's difficult to imagine smoking without them.

[–]Cockaroach 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Depends who you're smoking with. If they're chill, or funny, it's great! If they are the kinda people who pose and show off, mehh...

[–]M4tthias 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sorry if it sounded harsh, it really wasn't meant to. I only encounter these types with selfish personalities, I was drawing a conclusion on the only encounters I've had with people who do this.

This behavior though, also tends to draw attention TOWARD an illegal activity, which under a lot of contexts that I've toked, is seriously nerve wracking making more people paranoid...

[–]I_Like_Eggs123 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's not a needless cry for attention if the person is, you know, ACTUALLY HIGH. I don't smoke that often; maybe once a month or so, but when I do, it usually goes down after three or so passes of the blunt.

Happy I've never felt like an outcast when this happens, though. Glad I have understanding toking buddies :).

I've had a strange thing happening to me with alcohol. As soon as my lips touch the glass, I feel more relaxed and willing to laugh, joke, talk, etc. It's obviously not because of the alcohol: it's like I realize I'm in a context where I can stop worrying and be myself.

Maybe some people experience this with weed. I dunno.

[–]interventionn 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

OH MUH GAWD i noticed that happens to me too. i did a "fake shot" with someone..just an empty shot glass i pretended to drink. there was still some leftover liquor in there though, like a drop and it got on my lip and i was like O.O i feel funny already.

[–]adorkable_boy_wonder 6 points7 points ago

Coming from someone who does this: I'm normally a pretty happy person on my own (not peppy and annoying, but I laugh and joke and smile and enjoy life). When I get high I become extremely happy and laugh about fucking everything. Example: I just watched this gif for five minutes.

Don't judge.

[–]SenorChuckles 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I feel you. Sometimes it's ridiculous: after ten minutes of eating a brownie they say "I feel it." Or when they try to relate to the 1-10 high scale they go completely off the norm and invent their own scale. "Dude I feel like a 14," who the fuck does that? I have been on the other side of that, though. Where I'm super high and others are just got a comfortable high.

[–]biggerbang 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sometimes when me and some buddies are in a sesh and we get too high, we can go beyond a 10 and hit 12s haha. Though I can't clearly remember those nights, I can easily say that I've hit a 12 before.

[–]SenorChuckles 0 points1 point ago

I hate it when people exaggerated their high and won't shut up about how high they are and act like idiots to get attention (mainly girls I've smoked with at parties do this), that shit makes me very aggravated and typically ruins the sesh for me..

Now I feel self-conscious about how I act when I smoke with my friends. I always let everyone know when i'm feeling pretty high, and ask them how they're doing. I guess to try to gauge how I am compared to the rest of the group. I wonder if they interpret it incorrectly and think I'm a Sapling that is "trying too hard".

[–]pokwok 1 point2 points ago
