Usually when I smoke though I go in on some bud with my friends, so if there's like 3 of us and we all throwdown 10 bucks we get a 30sack, which is about 1.5-1.8 grams depending on who you go to. That'll give us enough for like...a blunt and a bongpack if we want or however we decide to smoke it.

I recently found a guy who's a medical caregiver and he grows himself and I can get kush for $10/g whenever so I do that a lot now.

Rob Wrote:What the f'uck guys, 15 bucks a gram?

We get 25g for 75 bucks. It's low tier quality, but it blows your mind.

Also, getting pot ''buds'' (I don't know what they call it over there, we call them ''cogollos''), is feasible if you know the right people and it costs... 150/200 bucks for 25g.

Seriously 3 dollar grams means you have serious connections to a dealer, where i'm from at least. Also I dont know what you mean by the bud comment, the only part of weed that is smoked to get high is the bud, the other parts of the plant have very little to no thc content at all.

In short our pot isn't expensive at all, its the normal price, you should question if what you are smoking is weed at all with prices like that.

 Nice buds I could get from a friend

 Paraguayan pot

Rob Wrote:Homemade buds* That's top tier quality.

Mind you, we live in different parts of the world. It's common for us to smoke this. It's pot, trust me. In fact, if I were to convert to your money it would be like 40 bucks for 25g.

Homerowed Wrote:It doesn't necessarily mean you're addicted, it just means its worth the work to you. I've had some crazy adventures to get bud, and I view those as me just really wanting weed that particular night. If I had to, at anytime, I could go cold turkey. I have no real problems going without weed, the only reason I smoke almost every night is because it helps me go to sleep, otherwise I would probably cut my smoking in half, maybe even stop altogether.

Kalovale Wrote:While I wouldn't put my enthusiasm in anything before yours in smoking, but if you're going through some "toughness" to smoke, doesn't that indicate some sort of addiction?

Sarcasm Wrote:Say one night you get a massive craving for ice cream, but you have none in the freezer. The closest store is half an hour's drive away. If you decide to make the normally unreasonable trip to get ice cream, does that mean you're addicted?

Kalovale Wrote:Put that to an every day, hell, make it even every week, scenario, now does that mean you're not addicted?

Kalovale Wrote:I just feel that something's off when one chases his craving consciously on a frequent basis.

Sarcasm Wrote:When did he say he struggled to afford weed to smoke every week? He said the price of weed in his area made smoking a lot tough, never did he imply that he was "constantly chasing his cravings", or in any way giving up other things to do so.


And yet guys who go to bars and parties every weekend to pick up girls is socially acceptable. Double standards much?

Greg Wrote:What the hell, man. How do so many people adopt the "SMOKE WEED ERRY DAY" concept when weed is $10 - $15 for a gram? I would assume that a regular person puts half a gram into one joint, and that one joint would be considered their day's worth, but that's still like $30 - $40 a week!

How?

Yeah man it's tough. Where I live it's $20/g for dank and $5-$10/g for "regs"/pomegranate weed. I only really buy regs when I have to.

Kalovale Wrote:Well, to be fair, that kinda sounds like a habit (read: not addiction) to me.

Homerowed Wrote:To get 25 grams for 40$ where I live, you must grow or be close to someone that grows. What you are saying to me is almost literally analagous to getting a brand new PS3 for like 20 dollars. Which is why i'm having trouble wrapping my mind around it if you dont grow or don't know a grower very well. (all of this applying to the US, if you do not live in the US, inform me of what country).

Kalovale Wrote:So only when a habit is bad is it an addiction? And you're one to talk about double standards.

If you'd cast stereotypes aside, you'll see the point I'm trying to make:

- Habit: frequent activities. Period. Anything you do on a regular basis is a habit. From Biting your nails to masturbating, from playing guitar back to I WHIP MAH HAIR BACK AND FORTH, those are habits.
- Addiction: Addiction is a habit plus the physical and/or psychological dependence on said habit. In a very loose sense, you could say everything you enjoy regularly, from ice cream to music, is your addiction. In tighter terms, only when you make conscious efforts to continue such habits when situations suggest that it be temporarily and/or insignificantly discontinued, I smell an addiction coming.

Yet, again, I try to highlight my point, no smoker ever admits to anyone, even themselves, that they are addicted yet go on and on and on to make themselves look "clean"; and that is what makes weed look bad in the view of the outside world, or at least mine. If weed-addicts are so delusional not to even admit that they like smoking so much that they are slightly/acceptably addicted to it (this is where I differ from you, addiction doesn't have to be negative, there is negative addiction, and allowable addiction), I'm sure it's not going to look safe.

I mean, f'uck, how many examples of addictions have I given already? And smoking is still so high and almighty? If you care about stereotypes so much that you have to keep defending yourselves, well, good for you. I'm a basement dweller who's somewhat dangerously addicted to the computer and I'm proud of it. At least, when acknowledging it, I can see the looming danger to be in better control.

Look at Rob, he does his sh'it but he also knows his sh'it. Has anyone seen him defending himself? Yeah he's just that boss. And the one in control steers safe from the addiction, the "real" addiction if you will, zone, that's what I believe.
