Am I the prick?

[Frivolous248]

So my buddy goes to a shop 'n buys 20 milligrams of some really good smelling incense for 21 bucks...

I tell him thats a rip off 'n that 20 milligrams isn't even enough to smell it, but he says its like 20 times stronger than normal stuff so its not even though I know you can get a gram of the same '20 times stronger' kind for about the same price.

Anyway the kid is gettin' all mad at me 'cause I'm tellin' him he got ripped off 'n he should just return it, 20 milligrams is .02g by the way. He told me I act like I know everything 'n I said that I was sorry for trying to look out for him and not have him waste his money then told him to fuck himself.

So seriously, is it just me or is he being ridiculous? Hes all mad at me because hes the idiot that got ripped off. He says he just wants to "try" the incense and if he likes how it smells he can get more off line, but like I said I doubt 20 milligrams would produce enough smoke to even smell that shit.

So whats your opinion on the situation?

Why would anyone spell that much on insence? Unless incence is slang for weed? Infact, why would anyone buy weed that small?

I dont know - but i wouldnt pay that for 20mg of anything.

Maybe I was a little too discreet...The incense begins with S, but I don't want this thread closed since its not about the incense, but the situation.

Damn bro, that is some crazy expensive stuff.

Let your friend buy what he wants. You can say, "whoa, that shit is expensive, you really want to buy that?" in a good way. Try to avoid saying, "you're getting ripped off man! That's stupid to buy it for that much"

He felt insulted somewhere down the line.

I'm sure he'll get over it and tell you you were right, because I agree, that much for that cost is D-U-M-B.

I didnt think insense was insense lol! Ok then. I got ya now.

Yes.

"Real" Incense has many potential health risks, including cancer. Here are some articles about it:

BBC News | HEALTH | Incense link to cancer
Indoor Environment Notebook: Incense burning
Holy Smoke: Burning incense, candles pollute air in churches: Science News Online, Aug. 19, 2006

I don't know enough about that other stuff, "S".

Isn't that still legal though? Either way its crap, i wouldnt spend a dime on it.

It didnt even have an effect on me the times i tried it - and it was extract. Still, it's a waste of time.

You were right to tell him he was geting ripped off!

The stuff is a ripoff, but I had some before and it totally blew my head away. It's crazy stuff, but not worth the price they ask for. Plus it's really not that great. It's not a recreadtional or social thing, that's for sure.
