Smoked with my pops for the first time

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by PsychoTheRapist, Jan 3, 2012.

    First off, My pops is old school, he thinks weed fucks up your brain and leads to cocaine and meth and shit. So last night I come home, I'm old enough to buy beer or get my own place but I'd rather stay with my 65+ yr old dad who I can tell is starting to go crazy. Like he says something and gets mad that you did it; since he forgot about it. Anyways I bring home some Boston market to tear up after I rip a bowl and my pops comes in my room, now I respect him enough to not smoke in front of him, and he respects me enough that smoking was my choice. So I ask him as a favor to come back in my room in 5 mins. He asks me to stop like always but I give him the look and he walks out. 5 mins later I'm ripped and tell him to come on in. We start eating and watching Netflix and he asks me in the middle of eating. "Why? Why do you smoke?" I figure he was expecting a stupid answer like "I just do, or don't worry about it", instead I told him exactly why I smoke. I told him that it helps my bad knee since it hurts at night, I tell him it calms me down which in turn relives my heartburn which I get when I'm upset. And it just straight up feels good.

    He looked at me and just nodded and we kept eating. We were watching louis ck stand up and about an hour in he asks if it's addictive or if there's side effects. Now I remember when I was younger that I asked those same questions right before I tried weed for the first time. So I asked him, "jefe do you want to try it?" "no no no" he declined and did his hat thing when he gets frustrated. I told him there's no side effects, it's not addicting and it could probably help with his shaky hands. He told he'll try it. At the time I was like "FUCK YEAH". I packed him a snap and he hit it like a champ. I've never seen my pops smoke a fucking cigarette and he took the whole hit. He blew it out and asked now what, I told him to just relax and it will come. I gave him another snap and he coughed this time. Not a lot but he did. We kept watching Netflix and he dozed off. I was chilling and saw that he fell asleep so I covered him with a blanket and crashed out. Next morning he woke up before me and did his usual coffee and walk routine. Haven't talked to him since but do you guys think I should talk to him about it or wait til he talks to me?

    Just ask him how it went down for him. Next time you smoke ask him if he wants to join in.

    Definitely ask him how it was, maybe next time give him less so he doesnt pass out. Give him just a little before a meal no way he wont enjoy it.

    Awesome story! Wish my dad would ask me to join or whatevers. He's caught me nut only laughed about it. I know he smokes but rude to ask (I'm Asian).

    Hon, get Dad on Omega 3! Tell him it will protect his heart and will lower cholesterol (which it does). But the articles below are the real reason- Omega 3 protects the brain! (Most folks get a tad upset if you suggest that their brain is "going"- it might be wiser to just stick with the heart heath bit, but you know your Dad better than I do.)

    When your brain doesn't get Omega 3, your CB1 receptors (and likely other g coupled receptors) can't be made right. When the receptors are defective, messages don't get sent to your cells which can lead to depression and other mental problems!

    “Nutritional omega-3 deficiency abolishes endocannabinoid-mediated neuronal functions.”
    Unbound MEDLINE | Nutritional omega-3 deficiency abolishes endocannabinoid-mediated neuronal functions. PubMed Journal article abstract

    Granny’s translation – “The US diet sucks big time and we are fat, undernourished, and crazy because of it. We get WAY too much Omega 6 and not enough Omega 3. Not getting enough Omega 3 can make you crazy because without it, the CB1 cannabinoid receptors in your brain aren’t made right- a chunk that is supposed to be attached, isn’t! Broken receptors give you “impaired emotional behavior”. So we think it’s the low Omega 3 diet is making the US totally nuts!”

    Now YOU might want to start taking Omega 3, too (make it a late resolution)! Those CB1s that prevent depression are the very same ones that get you HIGH! If your diet is low in Omega 3 (and it is!), you are not getting your optimum high! Broken CB1s can't lift depression, nor can they get you feeling stoned!

    Walmart usually has fish oil on sale. It is available at any drug store and most supermarkets. Both you and Dad could benefit from adding it to your diet!
