I love as this news spread, all the "but i need it for my pain/depression/etc/etc!, its the only thing that helps!" types are now just straight up basically saying they don't give a fuck about anything it does but the high.
I knew this was gonna happen.
Just like I know the type of responses I'm gonna get from the outed potheads and addicts.
Used one without the high. Worked beautifully. Too expensive in the long run. But really appreciated it. Dont want the high at all. It had no side effects. Just gentle pain relief. Bliss.
@Timonesaysno I love the high from cannabis, but that doesn’t mean that I want it necessarily in all situations. Like for instance, on Friday night I randomly got nauseous, and the only thing I had was my THC vape. Well, I didn’t care, because we were having fun anyway, I may not have been able to get away with that is easily outside of a chill situation, such as a softball game, which is where I was last night.
