Now that I smoke marijuana on a daily basis and have so for all of five years. I've noticed that all my friends and acquaintences smoke. All the people i meet at school or at work. I even see people driving on the freeway smoking. And people sitting in parking lots well you get the picture everybody smokes or so it seems. I didn't start smoking til i was 18 and when i didn't smoke i didn't know anyone who did. never saw it. it was never around. it's like my whole life has migrated into this stoned universe. Does anyone feel the same way
Now that you smoke, you just notice it more now. It's most likely that when you didn't smoke it was still happening all around you but you weren't doing it so you didn't notice it. It's like getting a new car and after that you start noticing all the people driving around with the same car as you.
yeah man i notice that kinda stuff all the time now, along with seeing like deals go down in mcdonalds parking lots and shit.
yea basically and you meet ppl through your common interests, and you notice the little kidsi n the parking lots smoking bud because you chuckle in your head saying "haha that used to be me" and shit lioke that
maybe it has something to do with the fact that other smokers get the vibe that you smoke, and are therefore more likely to reveal that they toke it too. it's usually not very hard to tell if someones tokes just by talking to them for a few minutes....of course there are exceptions, but generally you can get a solid idea.
things i didnt notice joints, i would have always assumed they were cigarettes unless they were in a cartoonishly large shape. stoned people, i just thought they were drunk or ill orr i just had this idea for slaggy red eyed people as just being a way people were sometimes, from irritations and that leading to being worn out and i thought that was all it was. its something i never had thought about actually but thinking back i remember (being stoned is great for remembering these things) imagining people with red eyes sorta acting a little indifferent but then overly responsive emotionally to certain things, i thought people were just having a real hard time like with allergy or some sort of adult stress i hadnt experienced or maybe if they hadnt washed for ages or just if they were shabby looking you know id assume they had a shit lifestyle (something ive realised can be quite the opposite!). now i notice just stoned people a bong would catch my eye now but probably if id ever seen them before i would have thought it was just a bottle without inspecting it. i dunno i guess i dont see bongs flashed around now anyway.
Does kinda seem there are lots of people smoking. Reminds me of that scene in Half Baked. I do know a variety of ages, occupations, walks of life..They toke up. Imagine how many closet smokers there are?
