      What does “smoking weed every day” look like for most of that percentile? For me, I have a puff before bed to enjoy whatever activity I’m doing and to help me sleep. I’ve known a lot of people who wake and bake and keep smoking throughout the day. No idea how they even get high anymore

          So wake n bake isn’t going to get you gone like it used to, but it has an advantage of letting you be comfortably numb and checked out the whole day while still functional and not obviously stoned. Great for boring ass jobs!

          Oh hey, it's me before I stopped smoking

          Recently went through that same transition, and it's a lot nicer. A puff before bed and then varying amounts on the weekends depending on how much I have to do. The high actually hits me now and I have sober brain for the important parts of the day.

        It's no longer the same high at that point and also by smoking higher potency or concentrates.

        Pretty sure I could smoke an entire joint and not be as high as you after your evening puff.

          Even as I am I still feel like I blitzed my tolerance and I want to take a break for a bit. I would also often take a hit before daily workouts, which is a practice I CANNOT recommend enough. Concentrates btw, I’d like to go back to grass but my current living conditions mean I can’t be as loud as I’d like lol

            hell yeah best part about moving back home during covid is access to my dad's homegym. Now I wake and bake before working out all the time. There was actually an article awhile ago about some olympic level athletes starting their day with weed and coffee before practice to have an easier time getting into the "flow" state of mind.

              I've tried this before because I'll try anything to make exercise suck less. All it did for me is make me start questioning whether the other people at the gym were even real. To each their own I guess.

                that sucks. for me it turns the treadmill into a more mindful almost meditative exercise like the closest thing to it would be really intense swimming i think or maybe water skiing and wakeborading

                  I’ve gotten really into the kinesthetics of my body while working out in an almost humorously novel way (you’ll know it if you’ve experienced it), and when the music goes on, I just kick into overdrive. This is honestly really vain, but sometimes when I’m really buzzing I waste time between sets admiring myself in the mirror lmao

                  I wonder if it has something to do with the strain ,like exercise works best with sativa or high CBD or something. Never sure how much strains are stoner pseudoscience.

                    Honestly strains are fucking weird and are something I need other perspectives on. I swear there is a difference between sativa and indica, both in terms of horticulture and physical effects, but I’ve heard that it is basically pseudoscience, perhaps placebo effect. I need to listen to more Narcotica, they seem to share that view.

        I wake and bake on the weekends and I sometimes take a few puffs throughout the day on a slow workday. My goal usually isn't to get high - it's just to catch enough of a buzz to make things a little more interesting.

        at my most routine, I was wake n bake at dawn and then again sometime between mid-day and dusk if it was the kind of day that would acommodate that. I used to say that I rarely got crazy high, but I did stay a little high most of the day.

        similarly when I had a job I couldn't be high at, I would rip it as soon as I got home from work.

        I'm not that guy anymore, but definitely some years between 19-30 were like that.
