Do you eat edibles everyday? Do you eat edibles every night to sleep?

Nope

I know plenty of people who do though. Just like I know people who drink every day. Good people. Not my place to judge them.

The only thing I do daily without fail is drink 12 to 24 ounces of black coffee. Can't function without it. Guess I'm a druggie

WRONG-WRONG-WRONG. The first skiers were hunters. They used skis for their nomadic/hunter/gatherer life style. Dinking had nothing to do with the inventors of skiing.
Ummm, yes they did, water was not potable back then and the hunters that used the skis to get down the mountain quicker drank alcohol because the water wasn't safe to drink. It also didn't freeze at 32 degrees which was another advantage.

I'm a big hippy speedball guy at lunch on ski days. A big cup of joe and a nice sativa powers a pleasant afternoon.

The bigger issue is that until the pro booze crowd can be open and honest and be open to both the pros AND CONS of their view, and the same thing for the cannabis crowd (can we atleast admit that sub 18yrs old may not be the best thing neurologically?) and the same thing for the any substance crowd, that a truly substantial conversation really can't happen?,

Respectfully disagree. Everyone is different and reacts differently to certain stimuli. That being said, cannabis isn’t good for me. I smoked pot and hashish for ten years but I found I could do less and less. I didn’t like driving under the influence because it played on my eyes, especially at night. Couldn’t ride a bike or play tennis stoned - couldn’t ride a straight line or get my racket on the ball. I didn’t like the feel when I was skiing because it made depth perception difficult. It came down to only three things I could do stoned: drink beer, play frisbee (somehow it made my throws and catches really flow) or watch TV. I had to give it up. That was over 37 years ago. Good thing because I don’t think I could afford it now. Prices are crazy.

Speaking of prices, I can’t afford to drink in a bar let alone a ski area bar. Prices are bad enough in the stores but prices at bars are ludicrous.

Prices are the opposite of crazy in western states and black market. MA dispos are already becoming more normal priced. As eastern markets open, prices will come down. I am in Oregon and ounces are $40

I'd be afraid of weed being laced with fentanyl.

By the way, driving when stoned should have the same punishments as driving drunk. When you are stoned-you are impaired-and you shouldn't be driving putting the lives of others at risk. Drunks and stoners should stay off the ski slopes too. If you can't go skiing for a day without getting drunk and doing drugs, you have a problem.

Fentanyl laced weed is DARE bogeyman nonsense. It makes zero fucking sense to lace cannabis. Zero. It’s on the same DARE level as “omgz they’re gonna give me kids edibles at Halloween.” No they aren’t. No one gives a fuck about wasting their edibles on your kids.

No one better at a party than me. When I was a senior in high school...I was voted best partier of my class. How many tokes have you taken so far today?
Your obsession is weird and kinda scary. Who cares how many tokes he has taken today?

I got up at 530, drove to bear brook state park and just got done riding 15 miles of quality. That weed sure does make me lazy and out of control...I think it was laced lol

Right where I want to be
I just done a round of golf in VT with 2 beers. Did it help my game? No helping that. Sitting at Lawson’s now having 1 more then grabbing some double and heading back to NH.

On another note when do the dispensaries open in VT now that it is legal?
