One makes you think less, and one makes you think more haha

Or rather, one makes you act without thinking, the other makes you think without action.

Oh, that is so damn true. You're just like laying on your bed, like, "man fuck this shit."

A friend gave his 70-something mother her first edible (first weed in any form, actually) and her only response was, "I feel lazy."

They lie about marijuana. Tell you pot-smoking makes you unmotivated. Lie! When you're high, you can do everything you normally do just as well—you just realize that it's not worth the fucking effort. There is a difference.

Unless it's a big arse sandwich. Including everything that you find in the fridge. Even the stuff that belongs to your roommate, like the slice of ham he was keeping for his breakfast.

I mean, it doesn't magically give one human decency they already lack 😆

That sucks, though.

The drunk driver runs a stop sign and the high driver waits till it turns green.

One has also had studies that shows it causes the user to have more empathy while under its influence. The other is more common in domestic violence.

Patriarchy: MMmmm . . . I’ll take the domestic violence one.

Yep! Glad my state at least finally voted to make me legal lol. I’ll take these homegrown, homemade Aldi fruit loop bars over the domestic violence sauce
