Strange, strange guy....

[GHoSToKeR]

A while ago I met this group of guys. They're all in a band together, and I got to know them through my bro, the singer of our band, because he sang with them for a while.

Anyway, they all seemed pretty cool... Two of them smoke (i'll call them G and T), and I got to be friends with them more than the others, the way stoners have a habit of doing. Occasionally i'd meet them for a jam (they're both musicians) and we'd smoke and chill out, too. We all supplied the weed, so everything was cool.

But then one day I got a phone call from T asking if I could get any weed; his dealer was on holiday, and none of his smoking buddies, including G, could get any. I told him that I couldn't get any either, but that I had a bit myself and that he was welcome to come around to mine for a smoke if he wants (a friend without weed, etc..).

So he came round, without any weed, and as he turns up i'm smoking a bong in my bedroom. I prefer to smoke joints most of the time, but when i'm broke or running out i'll smoke bongs. So I offer him one, but he says nah, he doesn't do bongs. Hmm, okay.

So I roll a joint, trying to be hospitable. Over here most people smoke hash, so most people use tobacco in their joints... but as I was smoking some really nice tasting bud I obviously didn't use any tobacco, because well, duh. I thought I was being a bit generous, you know? I didn't have much weed left, that's why I was using a bong, but because T prefers joints I rolled one. Most people over here woulda rolled a joint with tobacco to save their weed, too. So as I go to roll it he obviously sees that i'm not putting any tobacco in the joint, because he asks me if I am or not. I say no, i'm not, and he tells me politely that he doesn't smoke weed without tobacco. Hmm, well, okay.

Being as high as I was I still tried to be hospitable and began rolling the joint again, this time with tobacco. The only tobacco I had was a packet of Benson & Hedges, so I reluctantly go to use one of those. He's saying something at the time, but then when he sees that he stops talking and says "haven't you got any rolling tobacco?". I don't and I say so. He says, "oh okay, it's just I don't smoke weed with cigarette tobacco". Hmm, well, that's strange, but okay.

I ask if he has any rolling tobacco then, and he says no, so I shrug. What am I supposed to do about it? I ask him this, and he's like "I dunno", as if it's my problem that he refuses to smoke weed with anything but Golden Virginia rolling tobacco (yeah, he even said he he only smokes one particular brand of rolling tobacco!). I was stumped as to what to do. I asked if he was sure he wouldn't just smoke it pure, or have a bong, or anything, but he just said no.

So, I shrugged, repacked my bong, and got high by myself. :) Weird guy, huh?

[girlygirl]

WOAH!...lol

[Funkamander]

That is fucking NUTS.

[robert42]

fuck him

who smokes baccy with spliffs


errr

[amydan420]

if you are kind enough to share then that should be good enough. Kinda lame of the guy to act like that, I would have told him to split, but I am super paranoid of anybody who acts weird like that.

[robert42]

yea man ungratfull bastard next time SHIT IN A JOINT AND LET HIM TOKE

[candygirl]

isn't it like a unspoken rule that if your smokin someone elses weed not to complain about it? Damn.....

[BobBong]

i hope you got ripped in front of him for good measure. :D

his loss .. some people are just wierd like that

[GHoSToKeR]

Yeah, you're right, some people are just strange. I mean, we all have preferences when it comes to smoking, but like candygirl said, you don't complain when somebody is smoking you out.

It's weird because he cam round for a smoke and declined to smoke. I've seen him once since that happened, at G's house, and again I was smoking some nice bud and T was smoking some crappy hash, and every time he declined when I offered him the joint and say it's okay, he'll just smoke his own. Now that I think of it I don't think i've ever seen the guy really stoned before, even though i've seen im smoke quite a few times.

Maybe he doesn't actually like to be really stoned, so only ever smokes crappy hash so it looks like he smokes alot? That's why he turned down a bong and a joint from me, cause he woulda been ripped! lol

[420purplehaze420]

yeah no one is that picky i think he was trying to hide his amateur ways or low tolerence through his pickiness cause turning down a pure joint and then not liking the tobacco you put in it? now thats just retarded but i have seen cases where some people just really dont like bongs and dont want to smoke out of them

[ScarlettCrush]

social anxiety!
It can get worse when you are stoned, though it sounds like dude kind of...doesn't get stoned but likes to hang out with stoners.

[butters]

what a asshole.

[likemclever]

He may be jealous of your weed.

I've known people that when they get jealous they just refuse to participate....it is strange.

[KronicKing]

yeah no one is that picky i think he was trying to hide his amateur ways or low tolerence through his pickiness cause turning down a pure joint and then not liking the tobacco you put in it? now thats just retarded but i have seen cases where some people just really dont like bongs and dont want to smoke out of them
i wish i still had a low tolorance...i'd never mix something as tainted as tabacco with my weed,and even more so if it ment i didn't get as high :),this sounds like why the guy isn't smokeing,so i think your right but this perplexes me :( why oh why on earth whould someone turn down a joint...i must go and have a bowl and mull this over...or i may forget...either way...bowl time

what a poser :eek:

[ADaisyChain]

Hey, stop criticizing the guy pplzz, we don't know what was going through his head and he really didn't do anything wrong. I think scarlett hit the nail on the head. Possibly. Maybe he just wanted your company? Ghost, I really wish I knew a person like you in real life. You seem like the nicest person on the entire planet. And if you're anything like you are on the boards in real life, you're charistmatic as hell and should probably attempt wold domination. That wasn't where I was going. -rambles his scrambled brains out of his fingers-

He sounds lonely. And nervous.

your him aren't you...watching waiting...trying to put ghost on the throne eh?...sorry..i had my bowl :D ...but i agree,it is strange but nothing worthy of insult,if mine sounded dirogitory,it wan't meant to...T....

[GHoSToKeR]

LOL ADaisyChain, thanks man, but I don't know whether to take what you said as a genuine compliment or sarcasm. But hey, either way is cool! :)

You're right, though.. Maybe he wass lonely or something. I just don't get it; he always talks crap about how much weed he used to smoke in college, and he's the kind of person who, when he sees your weed, he'll say how his weed is better or cheaper or whatever. Bu then never actually has any nice weed, you know? I'm sure it's all just talk... I just find it kinda strange, i'm not into the whole social anxiety, peer pressure kind of thing. I mean, I don't understand why alot of people try and appear to act in a certain way in front of certain people. It kinda confuses me.

Oh and the world domination thing, i'm way ahead of you, man! I'm taking over the world one stupid post at a time! :)

[likemclever]

I fucking knew it.

[GHoSToKeR]

Uhhh........... No, you didn't. :eek:

[jfoster]

having a low tolerance kicks ass.... being ripped off one joint between two people is nice and saves money.

[Not Enough Herb]

should have kicked him in the nuts

later

[ScarlettCrush]

I don't understand why alot of people try and appear to act in a certain way in front of certain people.

Low self esteem will cause people to brag and exaggerate their power, influence, stature, or reputation in order to impress you. Sometimes it is really obvious, sometimes it is an outright lie, but sometimes, when they do it just right, it works. I think everyone does it to some extent, however when they brag about something that clearly isn't true that tends to have the opposite effect on audience and make them look like assholes. I feel kind of sorry because they can't tell the truth and impress you so they tell a lie and distance you.

My dad was a salesman for 30 plus years, he taught me something really useful.
You slide further on bullshit then on gravel, if you cant dazzle em with your brilliance, baffle em with your bullshit.

But yeah Ghost, that was right hospitable of you, but come on! take it or leave it buddy :p

[robert42]

i blame the nazi's

[Nochowderforyou]

You're a good story teller. I was intrigued the whole time reading this. This is by no means a put down either :cool:

Sounds a little bit strange, yes. Seems kind of picky you know? When someone invites you over for a hoot, and you come over, then be picky about it, then I think that is very oddish, and rude too mind you. He should have just smoked the damn weed for fuck sakes. You have patience man. After him rejecting the 'no-tobacco-in-my-joint' I would have told him to beat it. What the fuck, I invite you over for some hoots and you want shit done your way? Just smoke it motherfucker!

[F L E S H]

what a poser :eek:
That's exactly what I was thinking as I read this. I've known a few people like this, you talk to them and they say, "yeah man, I get stoned all the time, I only smoke good shit..." Then when I roll a joint for them, full of top quality bud, no tobacco, the kind I smoke everyday, they recoil in horror and say how they can't smoke it, it's too strong, they're too stoned....

Posers!


i blame the nazi's

Isn't everything their fault?
