Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[Kevin Wolfe]

A lot of people walk around smoking pot. Some days, it’s hard to go out without smelling the stench.

All you have to do is wink in an odd way and an MD will write a script. Sore back is another good excuse that people apparently use.

The term coffee pot has a new meaning. There is coffee with THC in it.

They used to call that a "Hippie Speedball" back in the day.
At least that's what I heard anyway.

In October Pot becomes legal here and I’m worried. I find that if I sit near someone toking I begin to feel dizzy. I can just see a roadside test that is positive for someone who hasn’t actually smoked the stuff. Someone else’s drink can not impair you but someone else’s joint certainly can.

People questioned that when I was in the Navy, coming up positive from being around it. The answer they gave us was choose your friends carefully

When on stage that’s kinda difficult tha knows!

I'll smoke a joint when it's legal and I'm done using my brain.

I would too but I don't want / cant return to a 45 year two pack a day smoking habit. But boy does a Cahibo and Remi sound good occasionally!

Here in the US the smell of pot coming from you, your clothes, and/or your car, is probable cause for a driving under the influence test to be administered. While you may come up clean, it will mean a disruption in your day and some quality time with the local constabulary on the side of the road.

You have a way with words. ☺

As somebody who has worked in a large crown entertainment environment most of my adult life. I will take a pot head over a drunk any day. I've never had anybody under the influence of pot take a swing at me, get "angry-mad", nor had to clean up their puke. On the other hand, I have been offered Doritos, pretzels, cookies from pot smokers who were more into chilling and getting along than even thinking of fighting.

No wonder my bong water auto air freshener biz scheme failed.

Oh definitely easier to deal with the stoned than the drunk. LEO's, bouncers, etc. probably feel the same way.

As a musician or a bouncer I would agree. As a bar tender I found the drunks better tippers.

Kinda surprised that a bunch of Musicians would have hangups about something like that. One of my Daughters is a Policewoman and I'll endorse Pot any day
over booze, heroin, Ice ..... whatever.

I don't have hangups about any sort of drug, until it effects me, or those too young to make a good decision about the rest of their life.

I'll agree and have never run into a violent pot user (excepting those where the pot was laced with something more powerful), but have seen plenty of rowdy and even dangerously violent drunks. However, I make no distinction when it comes to driving while stoned or drunk - both are impaired states where people are a danger to themselves and others. As for who made college dorm bathrooms decidedly more unpleasant for the rest of us, I'd prefer a pot smoker over a drunk any day of the week and twice on Saturday and Sunday mornings!!

I would say especially so, the risk to law enforcement from pot users is MUCH lower than the above.

I do get a little high from whatever chemical it is in turkeys that cause you to get sleepy after Thanksgiving. But Carey and I are home and all the further I have to go is the kitchen!

I believe young people numb their brains because-- look at the current state of the world. People can't pay their college loans, can't buy a house anymore, lots of scary disease, and both good guys and bad guys killing each other. Society is so fractured from the Internet, there's no common ground anymore. But if I were to escape, I'd use some fine Smirnoff and water-- but the only thing I'd be driving is my hush puppies.

It turns out that it's eating too much and the booze that makes you sleepy.

Turkey and greasy stuffing does give you copious amounts of gas.

Guilty as charged on the turkey @beans-on-toast ! I find too much booze ruins the meal though....
