lets all face it

[hemptastic]

smoking weed is nothing like it wa our first couple of times.
those were like the best times everrrrr
i wish there was a way to get those crazy, trippy highs again.

[holysmokin]

I dont agree at all. When I first stated smokin bout 13 year's ago it was so hard to deal with it I would get the laughing fits and alot of paranoia. Now I can get high and feel great with out the funny feelings as before. And if I want to get really stupid I just smoke another one. Just my two cents though

[hemptastic]

yeah thats true
but i never got parinoia
(probably bcause my mom told me she didnt cre if i did it, be fore i started smoking)
but like
now it takes a lot more weed to get me high then before
and i just wish i could get a really powerful high w/o having to smoke a lot.
i dont know
just a thought
but im fine with how my high's are right now.

[someuser]

First few times I couldnt get high at all ever though the guy smoking me out had some real premo shit. It took me almost a week before I was able to get 'high'.

Now, after 6 months of smoking, my best moments are the ones after 'holidays' when my body gets use to not having it... Then when I hit that shit I get sooooo FUCKED up.

oh man, i smoked my friend up not too long ago...he had only really smoked weed once before (with me, lol). man was he a wreck. we went to get some chinese at lik 3 in the morning, he had soooooooo much trouble functioning. he couldnt get his thoughts straight, couldnt eat properly. very funny. the only time recently where ive been REALLY baked was i smoked 2 blunts (between a good number of people), then i smoked about 4 bowls between 3 people. it just takes so much more now to get me like that

[hemptastic]

if you want a good trip smoke some good quality hash

[Frivolous248]

^cannabis doesn't make you "trip"^

Yeah, gettin' high is nothin' like it used to be. I think partly cause we are used to how it feels. I guarantee after a year then it would become the same. I know that I didn't smoke for 4 years, and the next time I did...crazy high, just like the times before. I wasn't expecting it and couldn't remember the feeling. I just remember I became more aware of my surroundings and kinda felt comfortable, we were in a chill place in the woods. It was pretty sweet, and I know I was super high cause 3 of us all rode out there on this mini-quar (like...a 50 maybe lol) and the person who drove us was so high, the other kid was like "hey man you wanna drive us, I think hes a lil too high" and I would've...but I thought I was gonna get us lost. I could even see the road and knew where to go, but I was like "I don't know if I can get way over there without getting lost..."

So yeah, I'm pretty sure its cause the first couple times it was new. You didn't know what to expect and were still adjusting to the feeling. Sadly, I'm pretty sure the only way you could get those feelings again is to not smoke for AWHILE (month at the very very least, I'd say a year though and it would go back to the first few times) so that you aren't used to being high.

[orangeman]

No, my first times were hell. Couldnt handle it :p. My best time was when I was really high and could handle it. The only thing I miss about now and then is that back then my body didnt hurt as much from too much smoking :p.

[bud breath420]

whenever i want to get close to those old feeling of trippin and what not i just try to hold out not smoking for a week or so... its not the same but it is pretty close...

WEED DOESNT MAKE YOU TRIP

I'm about to get really mad at all the people saying "trip" and just start saying "fuck you" to anyone who associates "trip" with weed. Ugh, know your drugs man. Not to be a dick, its just a huge pet peeve of mine.

[thNk.m0rbid]

Frivolous248 how are you going to say you cant trip off weed.. the 1st time i smoked i didnt get high.. second time i smoked.. i got high and tripped.. i took 20+ gravitys and 5 bowls.. hmm i definitely tripped..

[acrca]

ahahaha jeez who cares if it makes you trip or not, i agree you cant trip from it but seriously chill i think everyone gets that when people are saying they are tripping out that they are really high who cares no big deal

[ethsfreshman]

no, marijuana is not capable of making you trip. you get high, but you don't trip. just like you don't trip on cocaine, crack, or speed, you just get high.

Hey buddy, guess what cannabis' scientific classification is?

That's right. As a hallucinogen.

Now, those of us who smoke and smoke regularly know that with the normal amounts we smoke and our varying tolerances, we don't hallucinate while smoking weed. Cannabis can be, however, a mild hallucinogenic plant.

So kindly stop spouting your ridiculous anger which comes from your uninformed opinion.

As for the topic, I have to disagree. It's true that we do build a tolerance, but I've never found smoking bud less enjoyable..in fact, every time is a new experience for me. Just take a 2-week break or so from smoking, and when you come back, your first hit will feel like your VERY first hit. :)

[Captain Hanks]

i wish there was a way to get those crazy, trippy highs again.

It's called a tolerance break. Take a month or two off and then try lighting up. I'm sure you'll have a different perspective of never being able to return to your first high again.:p :p

[usedchemicals]

Hey buddy, guess what cannabis' scientific classification is?

This is incorrect, marijuana is a depressant, it slows your heartrate, breathing, metabolism, thinking, and reaction times.

it is definitly more of a depressant that a hallucinogen.

and even if marijuana was classified as a hallucinogen, it doesn't mean that you trip on weed.

Yes, it is a depressant. It's also considered a stimulant, an intoxicant, and a psychedelic. It's classified by many as a mild hallucinogen; look it up if you don't believe me.

"psychedelic -

adj. Of, characterized by, or generating hallucinations, distortions of perception, altered states of awareness, and occasionally states resembling psychosis.


n. A drug, such as LSD or mescaline, that produces such effects."

Just because you have never experienced a psychedelic high from marijuana doesn't mean it can't happen. It does. It IS possible to experience various mild OEV's and CEV's, as well as certain distortions in vision, in colors, etc.

I do not understand how you are classifying marijuana as a stimulant, and a "psychedelic" is not a classification of drugs. i know that it is classified by many as a hallucinogen, but regardless, you can't trip on weed. i have experienced psychadelic highs from marijuana, but it's also true that any drug gives you an "altered state of awareness" or "distortions of perception".

[couch-potato]

Kind of why I like having a busy schedule, I don't get to smoke everyday, but when I finally get the chance, I'll call da homiez, stock up on munchies, get a DVD (or something to do after we're done tokin) then bust out the fuckin OG kush and toke my Goddamn brain away.


... Or PK Kush, Trainwreck, Deisel, Northern Lights, Silver Kush, Purple, Champaigne, Haze... you get the idea.

err my bad man... i maybe we have a different understanding of the word trip, where im from we call being paranoid tripping.. i didnt mean like a phycedelic expeirience.. just when i dont smoke for a while i get a better affect making me paranoid... but hey man if your going to let that shit bug you thats your problem just make sure we are on the same page before you start calling me a "dick".. k man ive got nothing against you, and i hope you dont take this the wrong way, because thats not how i meant it.. so are we good ?

[Hardcore Newbie]

^^^ Since "trip" means different things to different people, it's easy to say that you tripped from weed. Or Caffine even.

12. Slang.
a. an instance or period of being under the influence of a hallucinogenic drug, esp. LSD.
b. the euphoria, illusions, etc., experienced during such a period.
c. any stimulating or exciting experience: The class reunion was a real trip.
d. any intense interest or preoccupation: She's been on a nostalgia trip all week.
e. a period of time, experience, or lifestyle: Those early years in college were a bad trip.

Calm the fuck down guy.

too funny

I agree with this post. :thumbsup:

I used to get paranoid when I first started smoking, I'll admit it, but now I use it to do the complete opposite. Bad day? Spark up, it will make you feel better. Nervous? Spark up, Anxiety, again, Depression, again, you know.

Although I do miss finding every little thing funny. I still find stupid thing funny, so I guess my sense of humour has changed, so I don't find such little things as a goofy look on my buddies face to send me laughing for minutes. Now it takes something a little more, ummm, I don't know, deeper to make me laugh for so long.

[Frivolous248]

I didn't call you a dick, I said "not to be a dick" as in I wasn't trying to be one.

Everyone, I do not care of your opinions! When you are talking about drugs, trip means trip.

Classified as a hallucinagen? Guess who comes up with those classifications anyway. Not stoners thats for sure.

If I had the money to spare, I'd smoke an ounce just to prove you guys wrong...but I don't so I won't. People who say that take "20" gravities (why is it always "20+" I swear its nover 5, 10, or 15, always 20) then I don't beleive you...I think you'd be way to high to pull that many, also you'd smoke yourself sober after awhile.

Oh, and hallucinagen...erowid doesn't list it as that. Psychedelic yes, hallucinagen, no.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychedelic


On that same spectrum will be found hallucinations, changes of perception, synesthesia, altered states of awareness, mystical states, and occasionally states resembling psychosis.

perception...time perception...awareness...Psychedilic experiences aren't always trips.

Oh, OH!

# Trip, a psychedelic experience induced by hallucinogenic drugs

induced by HALLUCINOGENIC drugs...and remember, cannabis isn't a HALLUCINOGENIC.


This post is way too long...Say you "tripped" all you wan't, but if you think you actually get the same effects from weed as you do from LSD, mushies, PCP, etc. then you are crazy.

[Hardcore Newbie]

No one said "weed gives me psychadelic/hallucenagenic experiences that are identical to LSD, mushies, PCP". All people were saying is that they "tripped". They have a different definition of the word (and as valid of one) as you.

Sometimes I say that I'm trippin, because to me, it's just a bigger high that makes me much less aware of what's going on, seeing a few colours change, and my eyes can't stay focused, so it appears that everything is jumping back and forth. I'm not saying that it's an equivilent trip that I'd get off of other drugs, but I'm still tripping.

[Reefer Rogue]

Y'all be trippin. :)

I guess the first time was great, but hell, isn't every time? :O

shrooms or acid or other hallucenagens will make you trip

Ummm, like I said...I do not care of your opinions. Tripping is often used to describe the "high" you get from hallucinagenic drugs...If you say your tripping, and your talking about drugs, thats what you mean. They have a different definition? Okay, well guess what, I'm gonna make up my own fucking definition for every goddamn word out there because apparently theres nothing wrong with that. Then when people say "dude wtf do you mean dogs are big buildings?" I'll be like "Thats MY definition for the word 'dog' so its VALID". only I wouldn't say it like that, I'd say it all fucked up like cause the words "thats my definition for the word" would not mean what they mean to other people, so I'd use other words that meant what those words mean, and no one would fucking understand me.

:rasta:
Harcore newbie is right :p

[Hardcore Newbie]

Someone busted out the dictionary, I think I'll show it to you again.


a. an instance or period of being under the influence of a hallucinogenic drug, esp. LSD.
b. the euphoria, illusions, etc., experienced during such a period.
c. any stimulating or exciting experience: The class reunion was a real trip. --- or That high was a real trip ---
d. any intense interest or preoccupation: She's been on a nostalgia trip all week.
e. a period of time, experience, or lifestyle: Those early years in college were a bad trip.

And obviously you do care, because in the beginning of the thread, two times you pointed out people's "MISUSE" of the word trip. You do care because you're still posting.

Words take on different meanings in different regions, and words can evolve due to slang. If I say something is cool, it doesn't necessarily mean that it was lacking heat temperature-wise. Here's the thing that'll blow your mind --- "Cool" only used to have one meaning, now it has more than one! OMG!

"Trip" at one point may have very well only been used to describe what can happen when taking psychadelics or hallucinagens, but it seems to me that quite a few people are using it simply to describe a strong (or insanely strong) high.

And if you want to mke your own language, go ahead, no one's stopping you from doing it, but no one will understand you, and most will probably think you're crazy.

[Polymirize]

Just to throw my 2 cents into the fray here... I've totally got your back frivolous.
I'll admit the misuse gets to me, but then I take a deep breath and realise that whenever I see it misused its by some ignorant kid who's smoking to get crunked, or hyphy, (or whatever the fuck term they want to use) and usually can't spell psychedelic, let alone smaller more common words.
They don't understand the difference because they've never experienced the difference.

[1986]

actually people have been said to trip when ingesting large amounts of hash.

[someuser]

I was talking to a guy 2 nights ago about this subject. He has done just about everything there is to do so I'm sure he knows what a 'trip' is. Anyhow, he told me once, after smoking a ungodly amount of bud, he went for a space trip on board the USS Enterprise.

My first thought was it was just a fucked up dream but he persisted it was a 'trip'.


I dunno. I think most people who use the word 'trip' in relation to using weed are just using its slang version VS its more 'accurate' drug definition. I mean, I think we can all agree that smoking bud is not is the same league as taking a hit of LSD. But who really cares? Just my two cents :twocents:

fuck up u grumpy cunt

[TheSmokingMonkey]

I disagree with the original post; I didn't get high the first time, the second time I was just tired and sick from it, now... it is like... the absolute highlight of my day. I don't do it too much though, I like to smoke like half a bowl at a time, and not every day.

[TheSmokingMonkey]

People misuse words all the time and mispunctuate all the time. In fact, I bet a lot of you who are upset about high vs. tripping make grammatical mistakes yourselves.

So let's stop arguing about semantics. (No I don't mean Jewish people)
