Group or "genre" of people?

[2600HERTZ]

Assuming most of you smoke daily....What type of people are you? Dirty hippies, Gangsta's, Goth, Chill relaxed hang with anybody, loner, what is it you describe yourself as? Since you started toking daily, have you noticed any difference in your hygiene or health habits you may have formed?

[Skink]

I'm a laid back Loner for sure...

[hello3pat]

Before I started smoking I made a point not to fit into any specific "click" and the sutch because I had freinds in almost every group, and I didn't want to get stuck into any stereotypes, but since I started smoking I'm been becoing more of a dirty hippy when I smoke, and basically an exentrik stoner when I've been sober a few days

[MastaChronic]

hmmm, i smoke weed with all kinds of people, my homies are pretty diverse except that we would all be called "gangstas" but its actually more like gnagsta/goth gangsta/dirty hippe gangsta/etc etc etc
ya dig?
but were not fake wannabe gangstas like so many kids these days, we the real deal. the bud bros, 420 4 life

[dejayou30]

i like to look as neat and clean as possible when i leave the house and go out in public.

[Polymirize]

I enjoy chilling with a rather diverse crowd. But I find that when I am confronted with a label it is most often Granola.

Which for those of you not in the know, is a sort of alternative, outdoor oriented crowd. apparently.

[ValkyrieAg]

see sig

[crunksquirrel]

i used to be a big skateboarder, hangin out w/ them since our middle school days..
but now im moving into the, Chill relaxed hang with anybody genre...

[MaryJaneintheCloset]

I'm one of those chicks-next-door who is married with a child, so I have to be responsible and such. However, to those who truly know me, I am a pothead as well. :)

[liberiamom]

I'm a middle-aged, well-dressed professional with the heart of a hippie chick!:hippy:

[LIP]

Im nothing. Im just a heavy weed smoker who works long and hard. I enjoy my life, and i enjoy my herb. Im normally quite chill, although i hate people trying to argue with me, and anyone who starts and argument with me knows i dont give up.

Theres only a few things which piss me off, the current state of the English government, annoying idiots who think they know everything, and even claim to know everything, and the lies which some people cant stop themselves spreading.

I havnt changed a bit, apart from im a happier person, and stoned 24/7.

The only habbit i've got now is smoking as soon as i get out of bed. First thing i do is light a joint i pre rolled the night before.

[napolitana869]

I'm a punk/activist but I clean up real nice

[Matt the Funk]

Hang out with anybody, mix of everything.

[Nochowderforyou]

I wear Khaki pants, or shorts in the summer, T-shirts, and hoodie sweatshirts. Some say Pantera, and one says Suicide Machines, that I used to get hassled about when I lived in Alberta, and some are blank, oh, and a Sublime on, and a Split (skate company) one. All my sweaters are hoodies.

As for shoes, in the summer I wear my Converse kicks, and in the winter I wear, right now, just some Adidas sport shoes/hiker.

So whatever that is, I don't know, but I fit into maybe a Banger crowd. I have long hair, love heavy music, and beating the guitar.

[MacWQ33]

ValkyrieAG...I like the style of your signature...and would have to say that I fit into that kind of description as well. I like to really look nice when I go out...sometimes I over dress I guess....but it intrigues the ladies, so fuck it. I guess you could say I have way too many people in my phone book, but I see nothing wrong with that...friends are reason I enjoy myself so much...sometimes a little too much. My city is just one big party where everyone knows everyone and everyone gets along with everyone. (it's not a small city whatsoever though) Money is my prime motivation to succeed in life...I love it...it brings me happiness no matter what. I do not consider myself a pothead or stoner...I just like to 'blow some trees from time to time' nowadays.

Besides that...I am basically the one that can make everyone around me enjoy themselves just a little more. Then again, all of my close friends are alike in that way, which is why we mesh so well.

I know a lot of people here don't, but I love the loud noise/music, drunken, card games & Beirut-esque get-togethers/parties with a mixture of close friends and new people to meet. Sometimes things may get a little out of control...but hey...just more to talk about in the morning.

I have smoked daily at times in high school...but I believe I am passed that 'stage' or whatever you want to call it. I hardly ever take the time to find trees on my own..but if it's there and the time is right...pass it over here. I also don't mind a smoke when I'm at home and I feel like making a little music (putting some tracks together so my friend can get some songs together for his future music career lol).[Music is definitely one of my passions in life.]

All in all...one of my life quotes is "Live life to the very fullest"...so that's what I basically try to do. Whether that means indulging in substances, playing sports or other physical activities, or just chilling out watching a good flick with good beer, good trees and good people...you gotta enjoy it in the best way you can...or what else is there.

Good thread btw.

[Its a Plant]

ValkyrieAG's sig is fine and all, but haha, what's that about "being a tool" and "calling it how I see it"? Is he a prophet or something condemning us all? Sounds like a cool guy or whatever, but come on, get off yourself fella. Just callin' it how I see it ;)

As for the group of people I hang out with, I'd have to say we're all brought together by music and recreational drugs. We go to a ton of concerts together, so that's always a good time. Then I suppose when we're not at a show, we're talking about past shows or upcoming ones.

I'd say some of us are pretty extreme, and most can't keep up for various reasons, but the ones that do have a good time. It's all about the good times. ~

[orangeman]

I'm a chill relaxed hang with anyone type of person. I'm the type of guy that if the weed I had didn't cost me a thing I'd give a person I was cool with free weed lol.

[timothylearyisdead]

Depending on the day of the week, I hang out with a wide variety of people. I can definitely be a loner too, but I have a lot of diferent kinds of friends.

On Sundays, I get together with a bunch of squatters and punk/activists and feed homeless people and just have a good ol' time. Yes i hang out with a lot of homeless people too.

When I'm at work, I work for a lot of rednecks because I'm a professional painter, so I kinda have to associate with those kinds of people, but they aren't all that bad.

I also have a lot of ganksta friends and my dealer is a ganksta as it gets, but he is the nicest dude i know.

I'm also a well respected musician around my area, so I also chill with a lot of people in the Indie music scene.

My very best friends and I love to bombs hills on our longboards, so I could fall in the skaterboy category i suppose.

The only label I will give myself however: <b>STONER!</b>

[Purple Banana]

I'm a laid-back eccentric neo-hippie, I guess. I like the outdoors, I'm not vegetarian, and my hair is long.

I like tye-dye, abstract art, reading, music, comedy, and SMOKIN! There is nothing I love more than sharing my weed with friends, treating them to Taco Bell, doing paintings for people for free, ect. I love giving to people, but when they walk over me, I stop giving. I don't really get offended by many things.

I'm not left or right, I'm in the middle, leaning towards left. I'm atheist. I identify mostly with libertarianism and organized anarchism.

Nothing bothers me much, I do as little as possible to get by just well enough. I 100% respect peoples views, especially if they're different from mine. I don't spend much money, I'm not a fashion freak like a lot of chicks my age, I love posters, ect.

My car is packed in bumper stickers, and I plan to make it into an art car later on.

[MacWQ33]

LOL Plant...yeah the word 'tool' is definitely not in my particular vocabulary. And I agree, it's all about the good times.

And Purple Banana...I also love sharing with people...it definitely feels good to give, no doubt about that. You seem like a very nice girl from your posts!

You seem like someone who would fit perfectly in with a group called Food Not Bombs.

[2600HERTZ]

You guys have given some great responses, maybe even a bit enlightening.

[Kid Lightning]

You know what, this kind of thing pisses me off. I hate people who put other people into groups. There are no groups man, we're all human. Just cause you wear black clothing does not mean you're an emo, and just because you like your peace and quiet does not mean you're a loner. Everybody is unique, yet we are all one. In this world there are only two kinds of people: assholes and people I can hang out with. You got me?

What a blind statement.

Obviously, not everybody is the same. Nobody in here was judging anybody by the color of their skin of what kind of clothes they wear. It's all about how you act.

A little truth: We are not all the same on the inside. But when it all comes down to it, you are right, there are really only two types of peolple in this world. There are good people and there are bad people. Good people don't put people down or make crude statements and bad people do.

Classifying people can be a necessity my friend. I think I just did that.

First of all, you're obviously an idiot. I never said anything about good and bad people (can you read?). I said they're either assholes or people I can hang out with. Classifying people? I don't give a fuck how they dress or what they act like, it does not determine who they are. Good people don't make crude statements? How old are you, 8? You are obviously very naive of the world around you, and a little dillousional as well. I wish you the best of luck.

[ValkyrieAg]

I ain't your typical pot smoker. I don't dress funny. I don't smell funny. I work hard. I am educated. I value life, family, and friends. I like my beer cold and my firearms loaded. I am an optimist and a realist. I ask questions. If I don't like something, I say it. I am not afraid of confrontation. I am self sufficient. If you are a tool, I will let you know. I simply call it how I see it.

Well I am glad some people enjoy my spot of life. When I went to college, I figured I'd stay in the great state of Texas. After my mother died, my dad moved to New Mexico, so technically, I am the only person in my family left in Texas. (everyone else is in CO/NM) I have to rely on my circle of friends. They are important to me.

When I say "I simply call it like I see it" I simply mean that I do not belong to any certain groups or think a certain way. I am not liberal, not conservative. I'm in the moderate middle. If someone asks me about gays, hey im cool with gay people, let them do their thing. If someone asks me about gun control, hey, that means using two hands. I listen to Type O Negative while I set trotlines for 50lb catfish. Drink Natty light (the cadillac of beers) while I pick my acoustic. I haved worked jobs where I drive a dozer and I have worked at the top floor of skyscrapers. I am the jack of all trades, master of none. Been to a few different continents, learned some different things, but I'm the same old small town kid.

I, in no way think I am the 'say all', I have opinions, but they are not set in stone and are subject to change.

[timothylearyisdead]

You're a very hostile person. I seriously doubt a person as angry as you actually does not judge or classify people.

Also, explain to me how the way someone acts does not determine who they are.

[higher4hockey]

i dont hang out with a specific group of people.....my four closest friends are a mix ...one is a grease monkey, one is a proud christain architect, one is a hippy geologist , and the other is a stoner custodian. i have many acquaintances that i wouldnt exactly call f riends, and they range everywhere from the abercrombie type crowd to the pantera headbanger type.

[MacWQ33]

Yeah...I guess the OP put the thread in a way that is very debatable. I know what he was trying to say though...so I took his thoughts and elaborated on them. You can classify people all you want...but it's how you live your life rather than who you hang with or how you dress. I'm very sure that nobody can say they have the exact ways as me or someone else...so you gotta elaborate a little like most people here have done. I think it's important to show off your lifestyle and your uniqueness...it's very interesting to hear.

[ValkyrieAg]

I know what you mean. I have about 3 different sets of friends that I do not mix. School Friends/Pot Friends/Party Friends

I have taken girls who thought I was very softspoken and insightful to a 4 kegger where all my party 'crowd' friends are getting down.

Drunk Buddy: "dang mar, shes not very fun...do you actually like her? Cause I don't like her, shes fawkin boring"
Me: "yeah, shes a pretty nice girl, shes alright"
Drunk Buddy: "Uhh, alright dude. Whatever."

Girl: "wow mar, these guys are really partying hard and crazy! How do you know these people??!! OMG, did that guy just pour whiskey in that beer bong?"
Me: "Uhh, yeah, thats TJ, we grew up together....."

[Pipe Dreams]

Ima gangsta ass dirty hippy. I take my shirts out tha dryer just to wrinkle em up!

Wow, you're going to last really long here. 4 posts and you have a temper tantrum. Good luck, because you've already made some enemies.

[JunkYard]

Im definately a loner. I'm sometimes chill, and sometimes not. It depends on my mood, and surroundings. I used to be a wirey little bastard, but nowdays I pretty much take it easy. There are only a couple people I call friends, but we are VERY tight. I'm an odd one, tho.. .. A lot of people have a hard time dealing with my VERY twisted mentality at times, which is good because I don't need more than a couple good friends, and maybe a few friendly aquaintances.

I'm disliked by many, but only because you get what you give when it comes to my character. I don't lend my appreciation to just anyone, so if you want my respect, you gotta earn it. I have respect for many of you people here at Cann.com, but only because I can see your character in your posts. Me? I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I'm a dick sometimes, and I don't give a rats ass about what others think about me. (Long story)

At one time I was that desperate little kid who wanted everyone to like them, but life changes a person.. ..for better or worse.

What you see is what you get when it comes to my genre or "Group". I make no appologies for who I am, but if I offend, I might appolize fr that offence. Even so, I like who I have become, and I don't think I want to change. Save a little psychosis from time to time; that shit gets really old after a while.

I wear flannel shirts, T's and blue jeans. I stomp around in my work boots, and never wear a tie. You might find me wearing khakis on occasion, and even shorts and sandels in the summer time, but if you ever see me in a suit and tie, it will more than likey be at my funeral, lol!

[herostyle]

I am a chill relaxed hang out with anybody type of person.

[Its a Plant]

but if you ever see me in a suit and tie, it will more than likey be at my funeral, lol!
Why not just keep the flannel thing going on into the afterlife? :o

My family knew someone that wanted to be buried in his car, and come to find out, he actually was.

It was a nice car, though. Convertible doncha know. ~

I Love my flannel but when I die, I think I might choose to be cremated instead. Someting about becoming worm food just doesn't set well with me, lol. Then again, I'd hate be used for kitty litter. What was that movie called? Meet the Parents or some sh!t, lol! Great movie, tho

That guy buried in his convertable must have really loved it, man. A most unusual funeral, too. Did they have the motor running when they buried him? That would have been a trip to witness, lol!

[higher4hockey]

^ i had a flannel stolen at the bar the other day, i was fuckin pissed! it was my favorite flannel shirt in the whole world. it was a blue carhart...i dont think i'll ever get over it.

[geonagual]

I am a listener, not a talker. I gather information like a databank. I Like to play practical jokes and am pretty much liked by all. I am close to my family and the few friends that I have. I have a ton of aquaintences. Mostly just a hiking punk rocker with a thirst for adventure. Also, stoned pretty much all the time.

[Samwhore]

cannabis knows no crowd. I hang out with everyone

usually by myself though

[geonagual]

Isn't that the truth. I have smoked with every kind of person that walks the earth. Weed sees no color or social status. It just sees PEACE.

[Nochowderforyou]

I want to be cremated too. I don't want to be buried in a box and buried in the ground. I want to set on fire then set free. Trapped in a box though, that sounds like a nightmare! Unless your Uma in Kill Bill, then you just bust your way out. :p

[timothylearyisdead]

My thoughts exactly. I don't want to rot in the ground. When it's my time, I want to be set on fire like me trees.

[LIP]

This sums it all up "My weed smells like weed, and it makes me feel funny"

[make it legal]

Yeah, I don't have a ton of friends but it's cus I'm kinda shy. My friends are usually punk type people or just regular stoners. I wouldnt put myself into any category but people who I don't know think I'm just a sketchy stoner who only thinks about pot and such. It pisses me off because how I come off on the outside is nothing like what I really am, like most people think I'm just a dumb pothead whos fried from all the weed, but I'm actually a pretty deep thinker. I hate my stoner reputation but I really am starting to not give a shit about what people think anymore.

[JunkYard]

^ i had a flannel stolen at the bar the other day, i was fuckin pissed! it was my favorite flannel shirt in the whole world. it was a blue carhart...i dont think i'll ever get over it.

lmao..

Some people will steal anything, man. I can't say I've ever had a flannel stolen from me, but I had a nice black leather jacket stolen once, and another time a faded blue jean jacket with a full metalica album cover air brushed on the back. I fuckin loved that jacket man!

[partyguy420]

stereo-typing is for losers... i hang out with anyone and everyone, as long as your not a liar or cheater... or just using me to get bud... or other stuff...


but really when you get right down to it... im a loner... i dont really talk that much in school, other then the occasional whats up, got a ciggeret, got a dip, got a dollar? ill pay you back, WTF DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!!???!!!!???? and im always flirtin with my EXs and occasionaly, ill flirt with the girl next to me...

i wear blue jeans and usaly a basic white cotton T-shirt with my black leather jacket, and a camo chevy hat... on cold(or rainy) days ill add a red zip up hoodie with a dragon on the back... and if its freaseing ill put on a pair of black carhart cover alls on(or if i have work that my clothes will get ruined in) and depending on the weather, or if i have work, ill wear a pair of cheap skate shoes, or a pair of black boots that are 10 inches tall... you will always find me with a knife of some sort... a mechanical pencil usaly a pack of smokes, a can of winter green chew, and a pack of either TOP or zig zags... and ive always got my phone in my pocket right next to some sort of disposible flame... and you will always see me with a gold chain around my neck, and occasionaly a 300 dollar gold rind on my middle finger,(it was my grandpas ingagement ring...)

and i spend most of my time in my room, or or at my homies house in his basement

[BizzleLuvin]

the folks i smoke with and identify are either artsy-farsty, dirty hippies, or chill outdoorsmen. i fit equally well into each category. since i started smoking, i tend to forget to brush my teeth.

[Samwhore]

Isn't that the truth. I have smoked with every kind of person that walks the earth. Weed sees no color or social status. It just sees PEACE.

I'm a stealth hippie chick!

I like to dress neatly in my anti-detection clothes... jeans and fleece zipup mock turtlenecks are practically a uniform for me... have a thing for little black business suits and crazy stilettos that make my feets hurt though, lol...

You have to get to know me to even guess that I smoke the shrek...hahaha

[thcbongman]

I'm a little of everything.

Sometimes I like to dress sharp. Sometimes I like to dress raverish. Sometimes I like to dress like a hippy. Sometimes I just wear just jeans and T-shirt.

I'd chill out with anybody. Cliques are of little importance to me.

If you looked at me you wouldn't guess I smoke.I've had people say I look like a "business man".Since I've been a a daily smoker 3 yrs ago I have gained about 25 lbs.My hygiene is good though.
