For me it’s driving while under the influence. If you couldn’t tell, I like me some ganja. However I have long since held the belief that it is utterly insane to drive while under the influence of most substances, with maybe nicotine and caffeine being the exception. All too often I see other stoners smoking and driving, which I simply can’t fathom. I’ve only operated a vehicle once under the influence and it was just to move a U-Haul around the block to a different parking spot, which was such a scary experience while high that I refuse to even consider getting behind the wheel again while high.

    It gives you substantial skills and knowledge specifically regarding cannabis consumption.

    If enjoying wine can be a hobby (wine connoisseur) then so can enjoying cannabis.

      Just because alcoholics attempt to justify the fact that they want to get drunk whenever they want to by “tasting” wine doesn’t make it a hobby. It just makes it sad.

        Well thankfully your consent on the subject isn’t required. They’re both hobbies whether you like it or not.

        My god, you are just unbearable.

        Sorry that OPs hobby doesn’t fit your blinkered view of what a hobby is. Amazingly, you are just one person in almost 8 billion, and it’s completely plausible that you might just be wrong here.

        Wind your neck in and go smoke a joint. You clearly need one.

          Potheads and vegans.

          Two groups of people made for eachother, since they cant stop being holier than thou to everyone else and cant shut up about their choices.

            For the record, I dont smoke pot, and im nkt a vegan.

            Regardless, no one is pretending to be better than you.

            I hope you see the irony of what you just said.

            “I’m better than potheads and vegans because they just go round thinking they are better than everyone”

              Ah, the classic “I’m not gonna reply to what you say, I’m gonna reply to what I imagined you said” response.

              boringly commonplace on lemmy.

                Sorry if I misunderstood. Can you clarify what you meant?

                It reads like you are saying potheads and vegans think they are better than everyone and dont shut up about it.

                Or has the definition of “holier than thou” changed?
