MD is right this time. And what about the states that are actively pushing pot? How can they justify that?
She should have watched the desert mescaline scene from “Beavis and Butthead Do America” to maintain her perspective. It might have been available on the hotel room TV.
You win, but it’s never too late for extra CZJ pics. :)
Hmm, a glass of beer or wine doesn’t create those side effects. They relax you but one glass doesn’t induce paranoia.
meh, she probably just got a good look in a mirror
Not the first time, I'd wager.
“I felt a scary shudder go through my body and brain. I barely made it from the desk to the bed, where I lay curled up in a hallucinatory state for the next eight hours. I was thirsty but couldn’t move to get water. Or even turn off the lights. I was panting and paranoid”
Hey, I wanna party with you girl. Nothing says fun like a paranoid, hallucinating NYT columnist curled up on the bed for 8 hours unable to distinguish reality.
I too stay away from edibles
I've often felt this way after reading one of Maureen's screeds. But I'm not a regular user of her columns.
I am perhaps the least experienced person of my years in the country on these issues, so please excuse my ignorance.
If pot of today is immensely more powerful than that of decades ago, wouldn’t it be more similar to hashish?
Did she cease to be able to distinguish reality or did she just become AWARE that she’s been unable to distinguish reality?
Some of the products ARE hash oil laced...
I’m sure the staffers at that artsy hotel with exposed brick interior walls are getting a big laugh passing around the security tape of Maureen Dowd wandering the halls, muttering and cackling, jumping into alcoves to hide from passing strangers. Well, that is if they know she’s supposed to be somebody or something.
She should have gone out and danced on the balcony.
It's almost like old times. It's been a while since I've been able to invoke that particular meme.
Next up: hugh, series, stuned beeber, not guilty, am I logged in, and I'm off to the shower....
I’ve found, over several decades of experience, that cannabis is actually a mirror and an amplifier, and that ugly people don’t want to look into the mirror once the amp is turned on. Just a thought, MoDo. Just a...reflection.
Hashish itself will be available in Washington State (and probably is in Colorado).
So—Pot is a Good thing? Imagine trying to drive with this sort of high? No worse than Booze so they say— But who said booze was good???
Gotta love all of these know-nothings who say today’s weed is so much better than it was in the “old days.” There is nothing out there now like the Acapulco Gold or Thai Stick of the ‘70s.
Again, excuse my ignorance. Since the active ingredient of pot and hashish is THC, they should be treated the same.
Isn’t that like saying beer and Everclear are the same thing?
