It was a lot less tense, then. EVERYONE smoked pot. MY PARENTS smoked pot. My stepdad SOLD pot. Well, his barber sold it, so he did too. In the mid-70s, there were “head shops” (pot paraphernalia stores) literally EVERYWHERE. That all suddenly went away with NANCY REAGAN.

But going into a store that ONLY sells recreational pot, and it’s like this upscale mix of REI and the Apple store, where people are BUYING POT. LEGALLY.

Honestly, I never even imagined I’d ever see something like this. Discounts? Earned points I can use for next time?
Oh wow that sounds awesome, fuck Nancy Reagan! I misread your initial post as though you had never tried any before. I will say though if you are getting back into it after a long time away, be careful, it's a LOT stronger now. I took about a decade off and I was stunned how good stuff is now. One of the many reasons I prefer edibles these days is they are much easier to dose. But they also don't work for everyone the same way and I got lucky there. I figure I'll probably never smoke anything again. Why mess with the lungs if I don't have to. Can't wait for full legalization though, just so our uptight society has one less thing to be uptight about.
