So smokers will take a few puffs and put it away? Who drinks half a can of beer and saves the rest for later?

 

Well, I have seen people save half a cigarette...

Depending on the method of delivery, sure. Doesn't go flat like beer does.

Sure. 

You've never wanted to have a few beers at the end of the day, without wanting to get wasted?

AAAAAAHHHH THE DOPERS ARE....well, they are doing exactly what they did before pot was legal.  They are buying it, and smoking either a little, or a lot.   Some seniors are trying it because they have heard it helps with arthritis.  Some people have bought some because it seems like a new thing to do.

As to quantity, there is a thing called a one-hooter, which looks a bit like a cigarette holder.  Put a wee bit in the end, hold the lighter up, inhale, put it away.

World isn't ending, and this is from a guy who's never smoked dope, and doesn't care to.

I am more of a beer guy anyway. Never really understood the national rush to get the whole country stoned. I tried it in college and I remember doing a lot of puffing to feel an effect. Then 15 years later when I first got married I tried it again on a sandy beach in the sun. I was frightened to move it hit me so hard. I remember thinking it was not the same stuff as what I had tried the first go round. Now 18 years on I can't imagine how powerful it must be. It seems to me that if you are smoking dope nowadays you can't just be a little stoned. You are probably seriously berkeleyed up, and going about your daily business because hey, its legal now. All good. 

Absolutely couldn't be further from the truth. 

You can choose how much you smoke, just like you can choose how much you drink. 

And I smoked for weeks before I felt something. Then I really felt something. And that's not out of the ordinary.

I saw medicinal marijuana advertised on a sign outside a veterinarian office today.

Anyway, back to the hockey game

I have an Olympia Beer can in my garage - 7 ounce can.  When I was younger I would drink way more than 7 ounces.  Of course we bought Old Style Road pops for the car ride and those were 7 ounces?

It's not the fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end.

And landing you can walk away from is a good one.

And landing you can still use the plane afterwards  is a great one.

A propeller is just a big fan on the front of the plane, to keep the pilot cool. When it stops, you can actually see the pilot start sweating.

The average human has less than two legs and less than two arms.

The average human has one testicle.

I told my coworkers this, which then triggered a disturbing story from Mike about a friend of his who has three. Apparently this fellow would use the fact as a conversational opener, offering to display his statistically unlikely endowment. Must be a fun guy to hang out with...

I got stuck in an HR class a while back where we all had to share something embarrassing about ourselves.  One guy announced that one testicle hung noticeably lower than the other two.  The instructor seemed to regret saying that there were no wrong answers.

Here's the NIH article on how potent weed has become as the market shifted from Marijuana to Sinsemilla.

TLDR; there's a few factors but the THC content has risen from about 4% in 1995 to 12% in 2014. Many head shops, in legal states, can breed it as high as 28% from advertised numbers. I don't smoke, or vape, but I bet that packs a wallop.
