    One time, at a party in my house, a guy chugged his bear and then immediately started Macgyvering a pipe with the can. I was like “oh, been a while since I’ve seen anyone do that. Should I just get him some rolling paper?”. And then he put meth on the can.

    Actually, both generations got it wrong. We rolled with biodegradable papers. No plastic required.

    Remember when Sobe bottles were glass and had the manufacturing weak point near the bottom you could smash out with a nail and a rock? They made excellent steamrollers.

    Across the street from my friend’s house, there was a mini forest There was a clearing inside, so people would hangout there, some people made bike trails and stuff like that.

    At one point some people brought in a wooden picnic bench. So, my friend carved out a place on the bench to smoke weed form.

    tldr - I smoked weed out of a picnic bench.

    You should see prohibition artifacts.

    Curiously in the eighties coke was affordable only to folks richer than I am,vwho were critically white and didn’t usually get booked for nonviolent crimes.

    My gf still uses the toilet paper roll/dryer sheet trick. The whole apartment smokes, but she likes to be discreet and respectful. She used to also burn incense, but I think the massive amount of incense she’s burned during our time together has made me allergic. Every time I’m near one my throat gets narrow, my eyes water, and I can’t stop coughing.

    About a week ago I forgot my pipe so I took my brother-in-law’s knife, dented a beer can, and stuck holes in it. Gen Z can hit that pen all they want, but I’ll be the one still getting high when the apocalypse hits. These are not tricks. These are key survival tactics.

      Pro soda/beer can pipe tip for those reading a local backup of Lemmy during the apocalypse: if your knife is stuck in a dead raider and you need a toke, you can snap part of the can’s pull tab off to make a puncture tool.

      Don’t forget to get that knife back though, fr. Actually maybe go do that first, but still do this rather than use a bloody knife. Hygiene, man.

    I’ve not seen anybody use a vape inside a retail store, so I can’t speak to that part. I just assumed it was covered by the same or similar laws as smoking tobacco products inside businesses.

    On the other hand, my limited experience with some of the younger generations is that they’re way more comfortable with driving while under the influence of thc than older generations.

      It is banned under the same laws and rules, but since it takes less than 2 seconds to take a hit and blow it downwards so it doesn’t show on cameras, you have to be there the moment it happens or they will deny it was then. I see kids vaping on the bus often, and this is what they do. Yes, kids. I see 12-14 year olds doing this. I’ve also seen people doing big vape clouds in bars, beside the signs saying no vaping.

        I’ve seen people discreetly vape weed while walking between concourses in airports, and I’ve done it, and so what. Not around crowds. Bathrooms tho yes, into the exhaust fan. IDK how those of us with legit medical applications are supposed to medicate during travel days otherwise. And thank god for it. I used to have to take harsh anxiety meds instead.

    What does “blow into a toiletpaper roll, filled with dryersheets” mean and do? Is this some kind of air filter to reduce the smell of weed?

      We would put it in a empty water bottle and cut a small hole in the back and blow out through that so the smoke would me amied out the window.

      It was dumb, becuase it did not take the smoke from burning the weed in the first place into account.

        I always called it a sploof. And walking in on people who had just used it, it does not work at all. But if you’re high it seems like it’s working wonders lol.

    The ol’ “doob tube”. Ahh, the memories. We thought we were being sneaky but it was more of a, “Congratulations, now your room just smells like dryer sheets and shitty weed, you fucking genius.” And we all just did that anyway.

    On the real tho, when I worked retail at a printing/shipping center, a guy came in and started puffing on a weed pen. It was so fucking annoying having to talk to, and eventually kick him out of the store, because he couldn’t wait to do that shit outside.

    I’ve smoked and vaped PLENTY over the years, I’d never use cannabis in a place of business. The fuck is wrong with people.

    It is crazy to me that I can just walk down the street to a store, buy some pot and wave at a cop on the way out. Even crazier is that my kids schools fundraising auction has weed gift baskets donated every year from the local dispensaries.

        I’m (sad) laughing at this because my kid’s school recently brought back fundraising with more products that parents will actually buy (who are the ones contributing to the fundraising)

        We had some conservative fucks ban a bunch of shit for fundraisers during the pandemic, and tried to blame all the lack of fundraising on covid. But the. Last year, it was proof they ruined everything and were voted out.

        We had fun fundraising so I’m kinda surprised to see it from your point of view. It does kinda suck now that you mention it lol

        We had bake sales, BBQs, auctions, guessing the number of candies in a jar etc… but I guess it all came out of our parents’ pockets when they already were paying through taxes.

        Fundraising typically isn’t something they have to do. That’s a wild leap. It’s usually just for an extra field trip or something.

        And more importantly, it gives kids real experience

          I’d count a field trip under the “crazy they have to fundraising”

          I could see it if the fundraising is for an after school club trying to go on a trip?

          But if the class were going to the museum or something, there should be a budget for that.

            I mean our school had trips to Israel, Greece and Colorado (from UK). I know my parents payed money, but idk how much or if it was subsidized/fundraiser for.

            Local trips should be free. Tbh as an adult I don’t like that the less fortunate kids were most likely excluded from the International trips.

            Also: we got stupid drunk in Greece age 15, I nearly got a tattoo. And free Palestine 🇵🇸

            Edit: we also went to France multiple times, but if money was paid there was no big fuss or special meeting. From the uk France trips should be free for sure

              I can see an international trip costing money, either funded by participants or fundraiser.

              Sounds like you had a cool time traveling, in the states your lucky if they have the funds to bus some kids to the public library

              There were a lot of after school stuff that had travel, mainly sports and music. The foreign language dept sometimes was able to an abroad trip with like 7 students.

              But the history class that wants to go to a museum can pound sand.
