So unfair

  *I can*. This is what we struggled for! So that no one would have to fuck with that bullshit again for a quick zinger! This is human progress for humanity!

  • Beacon@fedia.io ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Yes, but also don't fucking smoke where other people have to smell and inhale it if they don't want too. That part is NOT what all the previous generations fought so hard for

  42 year old here. I can recall sitting in a KFC for hours on end in the late 90s as a teen, waiting for a jamaican named Elvis to deliver weed to me.

  You’d arrange a time, I’d show up on time. He’d show up 6 hours later.

  And you smoked in your parents basement in the dark. Why the dark? Because if your mom opened the door, it gave you an often crucial extra 5 seconds to hide your bong before she turned the lights on.

  Even now, as an adult who lives alone, smoking with the lights on feels WRONG!

  I bet these Gen-Z guys aren’t even going to grow up with traumatic paranoia everytime they smoke!!!

    This is accurate! Except instead of the basement we only had 1 friend in an apartment whos parents were divorced and the mom worked overnights all the time so we used his room. If we werent lucky enough for this to work out it was our cars and hotbox them in the same apartment complex where we just parked in random spaces. It was always hilarious when other friends came there while we were there and park next to each other and everyone would just start laughing. Outside that there were a few hiking trails and the woods behind the movie theater or golf course which was before we were able to drive.

    We even talked about this recently and we all agreed it will be really wierd telling these stories to our kids one day and how crazy they must sound yet that was the only life we knew.

      We used the woods.

      Oddly that’s also where porn came from.

    I remember walking around the city finding all the spots that were hidden away and offered a semblance of privacy from the police.

    Lmao buddy that is some teenager logic. Even if you were visually hiding the bong you were NOT hiding the smell. She knew.

    I grew up in Washington surrounded by apple orchards. We grew chest hair from smoking out of those apples and then eating them to remove the evidence… and then we got cancer from smoking the pesticides.

    (I do actually have cancer, but it’s not actually this, this is a joke)

      Best of packing an apple bowl to carry with you was the ability to eat the evidence!

  Meanwhile genx was getting brown ounces that looked like a quarter, and after you pulled out the seeds and stems it was only a half.

  source

    looked like a quarter but was only a half

    A half is more than a quarter?

    source

    • doingthestuff@lemy.lol ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      It started out weighing an ounce but looking like a quarter, when it was done it looked like a quarter and weighed a half. That was the brown brickweed of the '90s.

  Gen-x millennial here… (born in the late 70’s but still know how to build and use computers)

  I used to smoke weed thru a “pinch-hitter” while waking thru supermarkets or riding the bus. It was a little ceramic or steel cigarette shaped and colored pipe that you could stuff just enough for a toke or two into. Very discrete.

  I’d save the pop cans and apples for after school or when I forgot my chambered metal pipe.

  We still did the same shit, it just didn’t taste as good

  • MintyFresh@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    It was easier when everywhere was a cloud of tobacco smoke anyway. Your weed smoke would just kinda get lost in it.

    source
  • Starik@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    We called it a dugout. It was stored in a little wooden case, and the weed was stored in a second chamber in the same case.

    source

    • Beacon@fedia.io ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I think that was a particular brand that some people started to use as a generic name like kleenex

      Nah, the pinch hitter was the pipe, the dugout was the little wooden case the pinch hitter went back into after their hit.

  Target doesn’t allow any of that in the stores, so no they can’t do that anymore than someone could light up a cigarette.

  That said, millennials didn’t just disappear when pot became legal. They can vape, smoke, dab, or whatever the heck they want right alongside everyone else.

  source

  • VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Okay but the Target CIA aren’t watching you constantly. You absolutely can rip a weed pen in there while walking through.

    source

    • RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Sure. You can do plenty of things that aren’t allowed. By that same argument a millennial could’ve smoked a joint in target 20 years ago. The only difference is the likelihood of a negative outcome.

  Go watch Smashing Pumpkins video “Today”

  We have “no-idea”(except we know EXACTLY because someone newspaper published a full page add about Aetheoship Dispute Devices that make your head very hot when they steal your ideas!) How, but David Corrigan stole our life for that video.

  Because my bud delivered ice cream pies for Baskin Robins, and the lot of us would pile in the back of the styrofoam insulated van, filled with dried ice and leftover ice cream pies, that his insane-stoner-trust-fund-rich-boomer-boss- was incapable of counting.

  An he would drive us to a national park, and we would box all the weed we could muster, like often a quarter ounce, in the air tight space, until we nearly blacked out.

  Then we would pour out together and zerg the woods and rivers by the moon, except that fully 30% of the time the cops would be waiting, but so many teens were doing likewise, that by a miracle herd defense, we were somehow barely able to dive roll around alley lights, ditch the smoking dry ice in a, …, ditch, and crawl under trucks back into the ice cream van to drive “safely”(always beyond impaired driver) back home.

  Where we would then dare that driver to eat as many ice cream (whole fucking pie sized) pies as in-humanly possible, then the rest of us would nearly aspirate pon our vomit from laughing for he would puke, such that it steamed the air from the temperature difference, inspite being down his gullet a half hour, still frozen!

    You must be smoking that good ice cream…

• Jonnyprophet@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Or alternatively, you could cut the bottom out of a plastic 3-liter soda bottle, make a tin foil screen to go over the top, submerge it in the full kitchen sink, and pull a deep gray, opaque gravity bong hit.

  Tbh, I usually didn’t remember what happened after the first hit because, even with 5% mexican brick weed this was still a pretty effective method of meeting Jesus on a jet plane.

  • boonhet@sopuli.xyz ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Well not if your parents didn’t know you smoked so you didn’t want to make the place smell.

    Instead, you tape a plastic bag to the bottom of the bottle and use that to manipulate the volume.

    I still have one of those somewhere. Pretty sure it’s all clogged to shit.

  All of the above, but also:

  We had to steal !ALL! our parents’ butter knives, and smelt them beneath electrical elements and toasters, then smoosh hash between them, with maximum force of strength and agressive sawing motions, whilst earnestly deep throating 2L plastic bottles with the bottom plate hacked off, inhaling madly, bobbing that plastic fume hood mere millimeters from the red hot poker. And if, somehow, whilst impaired, any part of this should go wrong somehow (how!? Why!?) Endure the humiliation at work home and school as people knowingly ridiculed the giant burn scars upon our cheeks of shame
