Is it possible to smoke tobacco infrequently and not face any long-term damage because of it? Like if a mate packs a bowl with some in it, or rolls a spliff and it's got some in it. Maybe occasionally have a cig when with some friends. I definitely don't intend to turn it into a habit, nor do I see myself having the money to turn it into one. I prefer pure weed in bowls and stuff and I normally think cigs and such are kind of dirty, but I'm just wondering if there's anything actually harmful long-term about having it occasionally.

A spliff now and again probably won't hurt you much, the amounts are negligible I think. Think of it as second hand smoking, harmful yes, but not nearly as harmful as first hand smoking.

The damage is slow and is exacerbated by the fact that you're preventing the lungs from effectively removing toxins. If you're just smoking a few joints each day, you're not irritating the lungs as much and consuming far less carcinogens. I'm not saying that you're completely protected, but because of the fact that only a small amount of smokers die because of their habit, you're probably more likely to commit suicide or get run over by a car.
[QUOTE=TankMan;41460352]Any good way to eye/quickly ID a gram of weed (not ground)? Pretty sure I got ripped off on my last buy and didn't even get a full gram. Trying to prevent that this time around.[/QUOTE] It depends on what kind of weed it is, if its dense it's not going to look like as much as a fluffy gram, you gotta squeeze it and see, it should still pretty much fill up the whole 20 bag if it's 20 a gram. You kinda gotta have some experience to tell I guess.
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;41434131]i'm sure you guys get questions like this all the time, but oh well -the thing that people usually refer to as 'acid', is it an actual defined drug or is it a misconception, and there's many drugs people refer to as acid? also what exactly are the effects of it? i almost did it once, but i never had the time and i was always curious. -how can you tell different types and "tiers" of weed apart? basically, what should someone look for if they're looking for good weed?[/QUOTE] Acid is LSD and anybody that tells you it isn't is wrong. I've found that shit weed is brown and that good weed is dark green, sticky and littered with tiny little reflective crystals.

[QUOTE=Lebowski;41319693]My clinical depression seems to stem from constantly low levels of dopamine, so coke is especially pleasurable for me because of all the dopamine it releases. I get quite a bit of euphoria from really good coke. Which is why I keep going back to it, because otherwise I just return to low dopamine so I crave that almost feeling of pleasurable 'normalcy' coke gives me.[/QUOTE] I used to think that euphoric drugs provided 'normality' to my depressed feeling, but I'm pretty sure it's just our circumstances that make us this way. It could simply be that your dopamine receptors in certain areas are less receptive to dopamine or that your upbringing has made your neural pathways build in such a way that happiness is less likely. I know that people with ADHD benefit hugely from cocaine, and that methylphenidate (Ritalin) is not dissimilar from cocaine. Perhaps you are ADHD/ADD?

I'm not a dumb person and I wouldn't be irresponsible with it, I'm not silly enough to get addicted or something. But I told a friend and they started freaking out about me taking it, saying that it's terribly bad for me and what not. Is it just because it's an opiate?[/QUOTE] Codeine is codeine and there's no such thing as bad codeine. What people may be referring to is codeine with other ingredients in (which is common over the counter). Codeine can be packaged with paracetamol (APAP) or ibuprofen commonly. In England, codeine over the counter is only available in 8mg(codeine)/500mg/(APAP) form. APAP can be lethal in reasonably small doses (about 10grams) even with a fully functioning liver, so you need to do a cold water extraction (CWE). Look up cold water extraction to understand it and you can get high for about £4 in England.

There is one on my neighbor's yard and I'm wondering if it is worth any value. Thanks![/QUOTE] Peyote are TINY. I have three and I'd be surprised if you could spot one in a neighbour's garden. San Pedro (or w/e) are much bigger and contain mescaline.
[QUOTE=TankMan;41460352]Any good way to eye/quickly ID a gram of weed (not ground)? Pretty sure I got ripped off on my last buy and didn't even get a full gram. Trying to prevent that this time around.[/QUOTE] Check denseness or use a scale. If its fluffy and doesn't look like a G, you probably got ripped. If its a dense nug(You can pull multiple bits out of it without revealing stem) it's probably 0.8-1g depending on your nug). It's all about how well you know your bud, usually I can tell if I got jipped or not, a picture would help.
Any of you guys heard of foxy? or Foxy Methoxy or 5-Methoxy-diisopropyltryptamine? Possibly trying it this week. Just curious
[QUOTE=Secret;41462952]Any of you guys heard of foxy? or Foxy Methoxy or 5-Methoxy-diisopropyltryptamine? Possibly trying it this week.

[QUOTE=Parja;41447935]i don't get why people do drugs without knowing what they are and what the dose is, it's a bit like running across a street blindfolded imo[/QUOTE] but man you gotta go HARD don't be a pussy measure your doses in major handfuls of shady pills and fat lines of random powders just make sure the guy you're buying it from says it's good shit; that means it's 100% safe
[QUOTE=Secret;41462952]Any of you guys heard of foxy? or Foxy Methoxy or 5-Methoxy-diisopropyltryptamine? Possibly trying it this week. Just curious[/QUOTE] A hallucinogen (obviously) in the same "family" as DMT. Erowid has plenty of info and experiences for it. Has a fairly long history compared to a lot of other RCs iirc.
Thanks! Ill look it up on Erowid, Ive been on that site before. Hopefully it should be a good time, ahaha.
I've done it a few times, from the little I remember it was a great light psychedelic that was pretty euphoric. I did it a long long time ago.
Back in junior high I was 1 12 year old n00bie. The only weed for sale there was brick to schwag. Then I smoked some mids and it blew my mind.
I cant imagine wanting to smoke weed at that age, everything blew my mind while sober back then :v:
when did you start, then?
I smoked for the first time when I was 17. had been drinking and doing pharms for many years before that
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;41463990]when did you start, then?[/QUOTE] 17, like a few months before I was 18 after I finished school I had drunk though but I mean my dad would buy me alcohol for parties so I didn't even have to seek it out :v:
Weed never really agrees with me, I had two cones last night and I was pretty paranoid and panicky for about an hour, then all of a sudden I felt hell chilled out.
What should I know about Xanax before doing it? Is 0.5mg good enough to test waters or it won't do anything? Should I go to 1mg directly? First time doing any benzo.
how hard is it to grow weed outside? how expensive is it, and how much work is there considering i'll be doing it alone? and how many plants would i need to gather anything worthwhile?
[QUOTE=TCB;41466493]how hard is it to grow weed outside? how expensive is it, and how much work is there considering i'll be doing it alone? and how many plants would i need to gather anything worthwhile?[/QUOTE] The problem with growing outside its the smell, and the fact that you have to conceal it. But i guess its no harder than growing inside if not at all easy. But i don't know jackshit about growing so, don't take my word for sure.
i live in a rural area and my house regularly stinks of weed, how far does the smell spread?
[QUOTE=TCB;41466511]i live in a rural area and my house regularly stinks of weed, how far does the smell spread?[/QUOTE] Ah, the smell spread varies from how many plants you have to where the winds goes. I'd say the smell can't reach long distances if its small size growing. But i know for a fact, someone near where i live got arrested because a dog picked up the smell far away from his house.
i live by the main road, opposite a hotel and surrounded by other houses with their own gardens and everything. it's pretty windy around here but surely there's a way to completely minimize the risk? i mean, how can the plant itself smell that much?

Weed is probably of the smelliest stuff i've ever encountered. And i don't know much about covering scents, but its a very distinct one. I can hardly think you can bluff dogs or people who do know the scent.
