Old(er) Stoners

I have a question.. As you get older.. Does it sometimes feel that it's tougher for you to find connections? Do you think there is some sort of discrimination taken for being old and trying to find a connection? Do you find it demoralizing to buy weed from younger adults?

I'm only 30.. But I feel that if I wasn't in the restaurant biz that I would have a harder time finding ganja.. seems these days no one either wants to help a stranger out(especially an older one) in finding ganja.. or they don't want to give up their connect... Me personally.. Am always willing to help someone out and find someone that has a bag to get rid of when someone asks me if i know anything.. But when I move off.. things may change.. and that will probably suck.. All i know is when i move i'll take at least an OZ with me to keep me going until i can hopefully find something myself....

 

No shit, man...

 

Its kind of creepy if you think about it

 

to what? elaborate.. no one liners here... I need.. or rather wanna know...

 

I would bet that it has a lot to do with how you look, rather than how old you are.

I know plenty of older people that smoke that could get a hook up pretty easily, but I also know a lot of older people that would have a hard time just based on their looks (how conservative or relaxed they might dress).

Also where you are at in the country/world will play a HUGE part in this too.

I think if you are able to come off as a relaxed and confident person, not someone too nosy, age shouldn't make too much of a difference. I know a lot of noobs that would be so stoked to smoke out a 40 year old just because they are older and think that only young people smoke weed.

 

No disrespect.. But I'm looking for the input from the eyes of older mj smokers...

 

Well joker, if you move a little north you wont have a problem.

 

No disrespect, but fuck yourself.

 

I currently have no issues whatsoever


@Purp... You're the "older stoner" in the eyes of a 13yo... you're more of a joke in the eyes of a 30yo stoner

 

I don't understand why you think I am a joke because of my age...I think you're a joke because of your act. Sit down.

I never mentioned myself as being an 'older stoner' - I merely added my input because I have been around a lot of 'old stoners' - stoners that were getting high before you dribbled out of your mother's mouth.

Not that knowing these people makes me any more superior to anyone.

 

I have never had any issues. I think it depends of the crowd you hang around with. If you move and make friends with other stoners you will be able to score. I relocated across country and brought a small amount to hold me over until I made some connections. I made my first new connection in about a week. It was a guy I worked with. The reason for my relocation was my job, which was for a large corporation. We worked together and within that first week we both confessed to each other we were stoners. I remember him being excited when I asked him to hook me up with his guy. He told me he knew as soon as he met me I was a stoner. Keep in mind at this job you really had to maintain a "professional" image, and I was in a supervisory position, as was he.

No matter how old you are, stoners always recognize other stoners.
Real recognize real. :sunny:

 

better make it two! it might take a while

 

When you are older and look like a longhaired hippy everyone thinks you're a narc... It's also extremely hard to just fall into the "right crowd" because you just don't fit.


That's what I meant by "no shit, man"

 

let me help u with that...

 

wtf howd you do that?

being older, if i have to make a hook up, i generally go with the mufukkers that are around my age, the ones i work with, hang out with, etc.

 

lol at you complaining about how older people get discriminated then you go and discriminate purp for being younger.

I know you obviously don't want my input, being even younger than the 'young stoner' apparently, but... I don't think it'd be much harder, people of all ages smoke, i know a few people that are grandparents and smoke... The only difference is, the way you find others that smoke and get connections is different.. When you're young it's easier because you can tell who the stoner teens are and you hang out in the places they hang out... but as you get older you mature and it becomes more difficult to spot out stoner adults, even though they exist..

this is all just my random opinion, it could be completely false.. lol. But 30 isn't even that old, you have plenty of time to build up some good connections before you're an old geezer

I finally found my first really good connection, and it's an 'older' guy in his 30s, so they do exist... I always used to buy off of those shady wanna-be thug teens that think they're all gangster, i hate dealers my age, they're such faggy douches... so i used to hate buying weed. But just recently, got a new trust worthy good connect that i can trust and buy from any time, it's nice. It goes to show, buying from the older stoners can be a much more pleasent experience than buying from dumbass kids like me anyways lol

 

Just don't move to a new town, because then you'll be dead meat.

 

If you move to a new town and really can't find any new connects. just keep your old dealers and buy in bulk... it could be nice revisiting your old town, seeing family and friends, and buying a few ounces while you're there, enough to hold you over for a few months at a time.. and the further you move away, the more you buy at once.. and maybe if you had a really awesome dealer he'd meet you half way..

 

Once I moved to a new apt and I went door to door asking if they had any papers. If they looked confused I said I was paper training a puppy. If they reflexively reached for their pocket or look toward the coffee table.......
