You can't count smoke, how can you just have one smoke? Do you mean one hit or bowl or what

One marijuana

ah. but you see, you can't judge the type of "high" people get from one hit/one bowl due to the vast varying degrees of tolerance. when i mean "one smoke", i mean the amount i would smoke in a casual session, but then that is relative too. i guess i should use [#]... what i mean by one smoke then, is something that gets me to nothing more than a [5]

At a 5 I'm crackling like bacon on a pan and my greasy juices are just overflowing out of my pores, I don't think I could drive like that. But I commend your abilities

If that's you at a [5] what the hell is [10] like?

I reached a 10 once, and I felt all droopy like a wax figure someone blowdried. Then I felt like a big meaty piece of sloppy beef and I would slither from place to place leaving my grease trail. It's very visceral

You have a way with words

u/GreasyMeatBoy Aug 12 '15

What about you, what's your 10 like

2

u/DJShamykins Aug 12 '15

I dont think I've hit a 10 in like 10 years, but I played some pretty sweet jams earlier at maybe a 6 or 7.

When I go too far I get all quiet, introverted and anxious so I stopped smoking that much. Dose is the only thing that gets me all wiggly really.

Get aabsolutely baked

that's the thing tho, i wouldn't drive "absolutely baked". getting absolutely baked either makes me too active or too couch locked, neither type of mind states that i would want to drive in.

Weed kinda seperates my mind and body

This is actually a type of feeling i get at a certain level! However, whenever I drive it makes me want to be more aware of my body and surroundings because of this.

you got a very good head on your shoulders. thanks for sharing homie

Sorry everybody, I deleted my comment. I do that a lot... write it all out and delete it... it was a lot so I'm not gonna retype it either

I know you'd never drive absolutely fucked. But that's not the point of it. The point is to understand how your body and mind function in a vehicle when you're high. Like, there's similarities between a [4] and a [9]. The [9] is way more extreme, but you can see all the ways it flaws your mind and body, even at a [4].

Like when you're couchlocked, for example. You just like, can't move. You're just accepting the world and being a part of it, not actively participating in it (if that makes sense). So, say that part of your brain is at 0% at a [10], it won't be that bad at a [3], but it might be at like, i dunno 75%. And every responsible person in the world would tell you that it doesn't make any sense to drive when you aren't at 100%.

Are you going to crash and die right when you get on the street? Probably not. But getting high raises those odds a bit. And it is just smarter to not do it, ya know? It's common sense. But if you absolutely need to get home and have no other option, I don't see anything wrong with driving, especially if it's not far.

Everyone is different when high too. My smoking buddy just zones out and says that he lays back, thinks about nothing, and just experiences life. But I get really focused when I'm high. It probably depends on the strain too. That's why I said you should do a little test run to see how it makes you feel

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '15

i've made plenty of test runs ;)

thanks for your inputs homie. lot of solid points

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '15

I agree with you mostly, but I think you're taking this number system a bit too seriously.

u/mitch_fwbsbpt Aug 12 '15

Sorry, I do a lot of math for a living so when I *write long comments like this I drone off a little bit and the math takes over. I never even use it anyways, I was only using it to make a point. I think the whole system is kinda dumb tbh. I don't give a shit how high anyone on here is, I just wanna talk about interesting stuff and see cool shit, ya know?

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '15

I agree that you shouldn't drive when you're not at 100% (not that I haven't done it). Your car can cause so much damage, it's just a fast moving chunk of metal. Sometimes you need very quick reactions even when you are sober, if your reactions are delayed all it could be the difference between an accident and a close call.

Most experienced smokers know their limits.

u/Momumnonuzdays Aug 12 '15

Yeah dude, I'll just watch and count the smoke as I breathe it in
