Funny stoner realization

When I get high, paranoia sometimes comes with it when I go in public and mix with people that aren't high. I always realize that when I am high in public I always think I am going wayyyyy wilder then I really am.

I think this happens to other people as well. I could be talking normally and think that I am loud and everyone is listening to me. I could be walking normally and think that im walking sluggish and slow and this ads to the paranoia when it really shouldn't.

Another funny thing that you can try when your high at high at walmart or anywhere else is... lol...

try to think about a background song that suits each person that you pass by and try to imagine them walking in slow motion while you play this 'background' song in your head. It's really funny to do sometimes. You would be surprised how easily you can think of a funny song that suites someone your passing by.

anyways,
Cheers:sunny:

 

I don't like being high in public...it kind of ruins the high for me. I always end up trying to act sober and getting all paranoid.

 

Lol, I remember the good ol' days when I used to get super stoned and go out in public. Soo many good times, lol. But now I hardly get as stoned as I used to, so it's not as fun :/

 

I think my favorite spots for getting high were always outdoors, in a natural setting, like at the beach or up in the mountains, or one of the canyons in the L.A. area, mostly due to the fact that the smoke would dissipate,,but my friends and I always ended up driving and getting high in the car as we drove, usually. When we did settle on someone's place to get high, it was always the same few places. Later on, I found out that a couple of those places had been under surveillance, and I was the lucky one never to be there when they got raided. The downside of that was that people began to suspect I was a narc.

It's also nice to find a place where you can "perch", get high, and watch the world go by, like up on a hillside overlooking a busy highway. You get to imagine,,"Look at all those people, caught up in the rat race, and me (or us), up here, free from it all.

 

Mostly no one cares if you are high, or don't notice.

 

I like to make dialogues for people talking in the street. It's even better if you have a friend with you and they do one person and you do one. Awww I love being high.

 

This is why I rarely go stoned into stuff like supermarkets on my own anymore... Ah well, also because I will forget half of what I was supposed to get. When I'm with someone else though I don't have any problems, I guess that's because you can focus on your friend instead rather than on your stonedness/some upcoming paranoid views.

 

I've spent unusually long periods of time in one aisle because I can't make a decision. I'll pick something up, put it back, pick something else up, put it back, ect.

haha, I'm sure I look like a crazy person.

If I do go out into public its not alone, because when I'm alone I get REALLY paranoid.

 

I've never cared if people knew or thought I was high. I've always figured people could tell anyways, due to the smell or red eyes, so I just act normal. If you're high, you're high. No one's going to do anything about it.

 

Seems like mostly two factors influence the thought of paranoia: Fear of legality, or fear of discovery. One the one hand, being high might cause law enforcement types to spend their attentions on you. On the other hand, being high might cause relatives, neighbors or co-workers to see you in an unfairly negative light.

It's people's misunderstandings that is at the root of it. Some have stigmatized pot smoking, for example, as risky, or dangerous behavior. Others consider it irresponsible.

Pot, and getting high, have had bad press, basically. It seems that only recently, in the past half-century, have people worked to reverse that. It's a slow process to get the laws reversed, and the truth out, due to political adversaries. Pot has been identified with the "unsavory" crowd for too long.

I don't much care about who sees me high. I just don't want people to be unfairly disappointed in me as a person, due to their own misunderstandings.

 

Yet ironically people will often laugh when they see a drunk staggering up the street, thinking something such as, "Oh, he's had too much."

What does a high person do in public? Walk around slowly with a grin on their face. Real reprehensible...

I say go out high and be proud of it, if someone notices, who cares? If a cop notices, big deal, as long as you don't have any more on you. If people see how harmless a high person is, the social stigma will disappear.

 

That's exactly it.

 

I have trouble in public seriously cant stop laughing. I might be allright for a little while but if i'm with a friend and they say something even remotely funny or smirk at me i giggle and can't make it stop. In fact the more awkward and paranoid i feel the funnier it seems to be hahaha. I also feel like im standing weird or my posture is skewed and tend to just say the first thing that pops into my head which is often lame lol. Lol i need to check myself before i wreck myself when i'm stoned haha.

 

I really enjoy smoking a joint while walking around town on a nice day. In Boston you can get away with it in a busy area like Newbury St. or Downtown Crossing if you keep moving and don't act too wacky,you just have to cup the joint and be descrete. I also like to take smoking walks through the Fens or around Jamaica Pond. People don'treally care, as long as you don't act loud and annoying, and since you are clearly not driving.

 

this is exactly how i think, and you've described it perfectly :sunny:

 

but the thing is... the only reason pot was ever grouped with more unsavory drugs is because of prohibition.

 

Naw I reckon it has more to do with stoned thoughts like "Hey I wonder what'll happen if I stand on the hood of the car while you drive"

Silly ideas like that ruin it for the rest of us

 

no one i've ever known has done something like that, purely because they were stoned... maybe, naturally stupid, and did something while they were stoned...?

 

Nobody I know has done it either. I'm just sayin' people who do these things make pot look bad instead of the media blaming things like the school system or drinking while pregnant.

 

i agree :sad:
