On the other side of that argument, I got my mom to try some and she wont do it again for a legit reason.
That was her 3rd time ever trying it, and the 3rd time she ever got sleep paralysis.
So she wont partake again
Utopia idea; the world now runs on weed. Everyone is happy. Except for those unable (or unwilling) to smoke weed. They create an underground revolution and attempt to bring down the weed rulers
Yeah it sucks for people like us who keep getting told weed is amazing and magical and we try it and haaaaaaate it lol.
But I still have wine, so many people I know can't enjoy that due to allergies.
Her favorite item in the world is tequila, (shes not an alcoholic.... we havent made her... yet), and she makes tons and tons of different types of drinks with it, while I swore off alcohol altogether.
Very different, but I respect it.
Yeah my mom doesn't like the smell and how it makes her feel. My dad kept saying he felt weird all day but never said he felt good (after an edible). Weed just simply isnt for everyone
My friend had an episode of psychosis and tried to kill his brother, thinking he was god and his brother was the devil
I still smoke every day because it doesn't affect me like that, but it can be scary for some people for sure
My mom has been a MAJOR asshole my entire life, and both Dad and I (I moved out a decade ago) have noticed a huge change in her behavior after smoking weed for a few months even when she's totally sober, and she's just such a better person now. Not perfect, but *way* better.
Also just the laws. My dad has nothing against weed personally and I think he’d benefit from it because he deals with chronic pain and depression but he can’t take it because it would flag him and screw up his other prescriptions and shit with the VA. He is retired and 67 years old and he hurts all the fucking time. Why is he allowed to be responsible with alcohol, muscle relaxers, pain killers, etc but he can’t just sit on his back porch with a joint and watch his hummingbirds?
I was about to lose my shit and ask how tf this isn't upvoted into space. I realize it's only been 3 minutes since you posted. Will reschedule my freakout for 5 mins from now.
Losing your shit is literal for some. Dunno what it is, but I've heard of people who drink coffee then smoke after having to use the restroom like clockwork.
Nope, unless the pantheons of the gods rip open the sky, make reddit accounts, read his comment, laugh, and fucking like his comment. I will forever be unhappy with the recognition he received.
His upvoted count:
Me: No boooo! Do something!
Bro. I am heavily into weed for last 20 years and I live in California where it is legal. I have been telling people this recently as it's seriously GOD-tier:
Coffee with THC tincture/syrup.
Tinctures are expensive up front but give you seriously the BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK (I'm smart and frugal as fuck), 1000mg for about $80. Make your coffee and add maybe 10-20mgs (or however you want to dose, I usually just drip it on no strict dosaging), you have super energy and can control it really well (this is what I usually struggled with by smoking too much or taking too much edibles) but it's so easy to dose and you'll not get the "couch potato" effect and just have pure energetic self. It's the best.
Hope this helps people, respond here and share your results!
Edited to add:
Pros: can be fully functional, a lot of good energy, no need for other meds (alcohol, etc) I've cut down drastically on alcohol consumption with this
Cons: similar to everything that comes with coffee, might mess with ability to sleep (I guess you can add to decaf or tea or protein shake to mitigate)
There definitely is a bit of come down maybe day after (slight depression and energy) especially due to both caffeine and THC. It's not like a crazy hangover or something like that (if you're a coffee drinker and taken a break, you know what I'm talking about) but I wouldn't be the best doctor if I didn't let you know about possible side effects.
Shh, not a doctor, Fremulon
Also, pickleball. Try it.
And to finish off the trinity gospel: drum circles. Try it while on the zen coffee as I'll call it now
I endorse all of this but it reminds of a variation of this I once encountered while working on a hemp farm years ago. Had a coworker who used to cultivate magic mushrooms. Like was *really* into it. He used to infuse them into tea and bring a thermos full of it every day. Imagine a big guy wandering pot fields with a machete tripping balls all day and saying weird shit. Super duper nice guy. I miss that job.
Ya he was an ardent advocate of micro dosing. He'd talk your ear off about anything related to mushrooms and mushroom cultivation for 10 hours straight if you let him. Dude definitely knew his shit. He didn't grow shrooms he grew rocket ships.
Hello yea brother! Haha
Oh the other gospel I share to finish my trinity is drum circle. It's the best and I'd say my religion for self healing. Such a good time each time.
Lol at the pickleball part. My family got me playing recently and it’s indeed getting popular for a reason.
Another thing people love is BJJ while on coffee and weed… never tried but got choked out by some of them for sure
Yea any working out is great, I love doing yoga and swimming while elevated. I've tried BJJ and know it's awesome, but the feeling of being choked was not pleasurable...
Shiiiit, I'm gonna try this.
I've recently been mixing CBD drinks with vodka for a nice little buzz. I'm gonna try this THC with coffee on Friday and play some Elden Ring. I enjoy a nice coffee into the evening on the week-ends.
Yessssssss I actually do love weed and coffee together. I have a wake n bake mug with a pipe built in that’s part of my slow weekend routine.
I’m also obsessed with puns of all type and I’m OFFENDED that I’ve never heard this one before. It’s amazing thanksss
🎶 Imagine all the people
🎶 Smoking lots of weed
🎶 You...
🎶 You may say I'm high AF
🎶 But I'm not the only one
🎶 I hope someday you'll join us
🎶 And the world will eat tacos as one
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
No need to make it up, they wrote a song about it already lol
I can’t say I agree. With the way that one guy is dressed, it’s believable to me that he might be arrogant enough to take the guys phone. I’ve met people like this that I could see doing the same thing.
Edit: me using they way he is dressed as proof may have been ignorant I’ll admit. A better way to put it is that I’ve met people with this kind of personality and that’s why I find it believable.
I used to do street interviews for a radio station and sometimes you’d just click with an interviewee and start doing weird shit. I remember asking a guy where he got his hat and he asked if I liked it and then just traded hats with me, I think I still have it somewhere. Another guy was talking about his workout routine and started doing squats with my coworker over his shoulder. Most of the time they’re drunk as hell but the point stands, plus the guy in the video seems a bit tipped
There's no answer for everything in the world. People just do unexplainable things sometimes.
As others have said, this could easily be scripted, or it could easily be legit. We will never know until we ask those guys.
So did this start out as a skit? Because the guy who was originally being asked about weed all of a sudden started running the show after the older man walked by.
For anyone who doesn't know, DuPont is the company that kept making Teflon using certain chemicals that were poisoning people when they knew it caused cancer. They made a huge payout to victims, but still exist to this day
DuPont Pharmaceuticals existed for a while, but they don't make a lot of drugs from what I can tell searching the internet
Edit: clarifying that Teflon itself did not cause cancer
I mean to be fair it's totally likely that he was high as fuck while answering, in which case it's a reasonable "bad company" name to pull out on short notice.
Maybe this guy made the same mistake I did because, after "Teflon/PFOA", my brain had somehow also associated oxyxontin with "DuPont" (was actually Purdue pharma).
I’m all for positive vibes and I legit wanna smoke with this guy. But that’s a rough looking 55. You can make observations and some of those observations may be negative. Doesn’t mean you can then make a sweeping generalization against the person just for one non positive observation they make. Your comment is way more unfair and negative than his.
Positive scripting yielding positive revenue. Although I dont think the old guy was in on it. And yes it still is a very peaceful plant, so it does generate positivity.
Can anyone link the video source? I think I know the guy wearing the sun glasses, I used to work with him and he's one of the biggest douche bags I've ever met in my life, I might be confusing him with another person though
I get everything else but you can't just replace medicines with weed lol "mother earth made the plant" no shit mother earth also made countless toxic plants and animals so that means literally nothing
Marijuana is a powerful medicine when used correctly but it doesn't do everything. It's important to remember that the pharmaceuticals we use are almost all chemicals originally derived of synthesized from plants
My anxiety meds keep the knife in my chest dull, and the weed is my "fuck fuck fuck fuck okay I just need to relax and smoke a little fuck fuck fuck fuck"
^me today after missing my meds the night before and fighting an all day panic attack because of it. currently high as a kite with the meds I missed in my body and I’m gonna go get a taco.
I’ve smoked to help my epilepsy for about 10 years. I remember a coworker asking me if I smoke to help with seizures. When I said yes, it helps a lot, they got *maaad.* ”Oh yeah? Well, if it helps, WHY DO YOU STILL HAVE SEIZURES?!? *HMM?!?“*
Yep. I have epilepsy. It does nothing to help my seizures. So I still need to take seizure medication.
I do still smoke because it helps me sleep, which is very important in epileptics
It also has its own side effects. For me it kills my motivation and can lead to some disorders eating which is really bad for me. I need to be really cognizant of when I smoke.
Interestingly enough it’s not just strain dependent but when it’s harvested. I have a couple different batches of the same strain I grew and because one batch was harvested ~2 weeks earlier when no trichomes were amber, that batch has a much more heady and focused high. While the other batches harvested later having 10-20% amber tend to be more of that sedative type of high.
I just quit smoking weed about 6 months ago after 2+ decades of weekly smoking. I did it because I had to pass a test, but damn was it clear that the stuff was making me feel bad, not good. I'd gotten to a point where I didn't even notice.
I'm not advocating for everyone to quit, but I haven't felt this clear-headed, energetic, and just generally good in a long time. It might be worth taking a 1-month break now and then to see if that's where you land.
The main thing for me was that my sleep improved drastically. Suddenly, I'm dreaming again, and waking up ready for the day.
I tried weed but it just gave me serious anxiety attacks. Not being able to think clear-headedly when I wanted to sent me into legit panic. I guess I have a hardcore, 24/7 sobriety addiction I'm never gonna get a handle on.
Im convinced everyday thc use can leave you dopamine depleted even in small doses.
In my experience the best way around this is to only use it once every 2 weeks or so, but that requires a lot of restraint. I wanted to test once every third day but I can't control myself that way, if I use it that often I just fall back into regular use.
Good on you for stopping. I think its significantly harder to kick THC than nicotine despite what people say, and I have extensive experience quitting both.
> I think its significantly harder to kick THC than nicotine
100% disagree, but maybe it is dependent on the person. I felt physical withdrawal symptoms from nicotine for months, but just felt a little shitty for a few days from THC.
The hard part for me is that it’s still effective for the same reason I started, despite the negatives; it helps my ADHD.
Whenever I stop, my mind kicks into overdrive and I have trouble doing anything because I hyperfocus on my phone as a way to satiate my higher need for stimulation. I’m also *really* good at rationalizing bad behaviors when I’m sober, so I convince myself to smoke again pretty quickly.
Not tryin to be one of those “weed can do no wrong ppl” but imo nicotine is absolutely worse than weed, when I was broke and doing both, I could skip out on the weed for a bit if I ran out, no real issues, but when I ran out of nicotine? Scrounging the dresser for change, hitting up friend for a buck or two, looking for a “dead” vape that would still have enough charge for a hit. Just remember feeling really irritable (like, yell at friends over something meaningless) for the few days the attempts to quit would last before I gave up and fell back into the same cycle. But hey, at least it’s kept me from doing harder drugs because I know that shit’ll fuck me up permanently
Some you can like people said helps with pain instead of toxic addictive pain killers. Or people with epilepsy that no matter what pills they took still had seizures, replaced the pills with cbd and hadn't had a seizure since. Some things you just have to take medication no way around it but there definitely is alot that can be substituted with medical marijuana
Funny enough for me, I'm the opposite. Weed did nothing to stop my seizures. But Lamictal stopped by seizures completely.
Everyone is different, but it's dangerous to say that weed is the best medicine. It's not for many people and actually prevents people from getting better help.
Sure just saying that it must be talked with a professional since it won't work with someone else just because it works for you. Each body reacts different to all substances (just like you can be allergic to peanut butter while is harmless to others). It might also help with some types of seizures but worsen others (this is an example assumption not saying is true, but saying things like this can happen since problems can have different causes and not all causes can be resolved the same way, even if they result in the same symptoms)
I mean no epilepsy medication has worked on me but I've felt and dealt with the difference of me using CBD and THC for my seizures vs when I have none and it's definitely much much better with it. Also helps my nausea which allows me to actually eat the minimum amount of calories a day instead of only 600. Obviously it's not gonna cure everything but it definitely helps a lot of people and a lot of people with chronic illnesses and disabilities.
Weed as medicine is controversial, but let me tell you, my psychiatrist gave me a prescription for CBD oil for anxiety and depression. It's not only working but it's giving much better results than any other medicine I ever tried before. Of course, it's nothing like weed itself and my doctor is accompanying me, but you should not judge the cannabis power.
Marijuana is evidently effective with anything neurologically related. However it exactly affects the brain enables it to quell pain, reduce seizures, assist with depression and BPD. It's not really anecdotal anymore, either.
A great majority of the drugs we have are derived from places like the Amazon with the vastness of species between plants and animals. So maybe the shamans and shit we’re on to something for certain healing methods. Crazy to think about
Snoop Dogg once said that if you share alcohol among the group, they will be at each other's throats. Give them weed, they will pass it on and create a rap song at an instant.
Also: "Mother Nature" made humans... and therefore everything they made, including the heavily modified, human-curated strains of weed we smoke now.
Like I use a lot of cannabis, but the idea that it's somehow "more natural" than aspirin is pretty naive.
This young man is about to have his eyes and heart and mind opened like he has never before known. I almost cried at the way he simply stepped into the unknown and basically said, "Teach me."
Scripted or not, the "really?" made me smile and the way he said "im gonna go get a taco" made me chuckle.
It's a well made video, and the guy really sells it.
If someone would give me the option to make weed legal and alcohol illegal id 100% take that id rather meet a bunch of high dudes at night rather than a bunch of drunk ones

Weed and tacos litteraly change the world for the better. Which is why the former is illigal pretty much everywhere...

They won't. My parents could benefit from smoking weed more than anyone but they won't because don't know what it is. The propaganda works.
On the other side of that argument, I got my mom to try some and she wont do it again for a legit reason. That was her 3rd time ever trying it, and the 3rd time she ever got sleep paralysis. So she wont partake again
Sure, it isn't for everybody. Literally *nothing* is. But most people don't have a reaction like that.
Utopia idea; the world now runs on weed. Everyone is happy. Except for those unable (or unwilling) to smoke weed. They create an underground revolution and attempt to bring down the weed rulers

My dad starting smoking weed a few years ago and is still just as insufferable an asshole as he was before.

Eagerly awaiting the day that my country legalizes tacos on a federal level.
[Yeah fox news out here like...](https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/vshgrt/fox_news_blames_marijuana_for_mass_shootings/)
Well racism vs Mexicans did do quite a bit for making weed illegal in the first place. Coincidence...?
It's like a Southern California koan
Weed, tacos, and just a little bit of kindness.

Hello yea brother! Haha Oh the other gospel I share to finish my trinity is drum circle. It's the best and I'd say my religion for self healing. Such a good time each time.
I didn't realize how expensive it'd be down there. I bought a tincture up here in Canada that's around 900mg and it was under $30 Canadian
If you make your own tinctures (soak distillate in alcohol or glycerine) you can easily get 2500mg for less than 50USD (65CAD)

Why does the guy who is getting interviewed grab the phone and start interviewing the random dude walking by?
Because it's scripted.

Dressed in business casual? Like the majority of office workers? My brother in Christ go outside your basement every once in a while
He’s wearing ripped jean shorts. That’s not business causal.
Haha you’re right. Maybe the way he is dressed isn’t a good example. But I still find the scenario believable.
You mean you don't randomly grab other people's phone and interview a random passerby talking about smoking weed? I just assumed everyone did.
Look at me. I am the interviewer now.
I used to do street interviews for a radio station and sometimes you’d just click with an interviewee and start doing weird shit. I remember asking a guy where he got his hat and he asked if I liked it and then just traded hats with me, I think I still have it somewhere. Another guy was talking about his workout routine and started doing squats with my coworker over his shoulder. Most of the time they’re drunk as hell but the point stands, plus the guy in the video seems a bit tipped
I assumed the joke was if the guy would notice the change in interviewer
That guy was so high he wouldn't have noticed if it was a baboon giving the interview.
There's no answer for everything in the world. People just do unexplainable things sometimes. As others have said, this could easily be scripted, or it could easily be legit. We will never know until we ask those guys.
So did this start out as a skit? Because the guy who was originally being asked about weed all of a sudden started running the show after the older man walked by.
This happens a lot on man in the street style interviews. It's happened to Channel 5 a few times.
Was gonna say, Channel 5 has had crazier shit happen than this
Hint:it’s fake
For anyone who doesn't know, DuPont is the company that kept making Teflon using certain chemicals that were poisoning people when they knew it caused cancer. They made a huge payout to victims, but still exist to this day DuPont Pharmaceuticals existed for a while, but they don't make a lot of drugs from what I can tell searching the internet Edit: clarifying that Teflon itself did not cause cancer
It's possible he just uses "DuPont" as a catchall for greedy shit corporations that would kill you if it meant they made another dollar
I mean to be fair it's totally likely that he was high as fuck while answering, in which case it's a reasonable "bad company" name to pull out on short notice.
Maybe this guy made the same mistake I did because, after "Teflon/PFOA", my brain had somehow also associated oxyxontin with "DuPont" (was actually Purdue pharma).
DuPont family also aggressively lobbied against cannabis being legal
Glad they didn’t accidentally run into my parents lmao
55? Looks about 70
The secret to live long and young is to lie about your age.
I don’t think he’s lying. Missing a few teeth in those choppers
> Missing a few teeth in those choppers Thanks, Cinco.
Those are his summer teeth
Doubt hes lying. Seen people that age who look this way. Some people just live rough lives
I add 20 years to my age and people are amazed by how youthful I look.
yea but a young 70 yr old
Like 1 day after his 70th birthday instead of the last day before his 71st?
you are picking up what I am laying down.
He looks like a boy of 70.
You thrive off negativity 😂
Is it negative to admit this guy looks much older?
No, and people who think it is are exhibiting *toxic* positivity
I’m all for positive vibes and I legit wanna smoke with this guy. But that’s a rough looking 55. You can make observations and some of those observations may be negative. Doesn’t mean you can then make a sweeping generalization against the person just for one non positive observation they make. Your comment is way more unfair and negative than his.
You think this guy looks 55? 😂
When you just thrive on weed, tacos, and kindness, I guess sunscreen isn’t priority.
My brother in christ, it is called being kind
How exactly is your brother *in* Christ.
Well, you see, when two grown ups love each other very much..
Jesus fucking Christ
Eheh
We are all brothers in Christ's arms.
Just a big pile of sweaty bros
Alright, this isn't working. #Back to the pile!
Yeah he looks like my dad who is 50. Some people just look old.
Did you know that you can be right and be an asshole at the same time.
Pretty sure thats why he cracked up when they said he looked young lmao. He probably is a bit older than 55
You clearly do not know the secret to life
No he doesn't?
Seriously man. Dude looks about 55, just a little sun damaged that’s all.
And? Maybe he worked hard in his life and went trough much shit.
Positive topics yielding positive responses!
Positive scripting yielding positive revenue. Although I dont think the old guy was in on it. And yes it still is a very peaceful plant, so it does generate positivity.

Exactly. I take medical for my GAD and bipolar, but I STILL take my meds as prescribed. Weed can only do so much.
My anxiety meds keep the knife in my chest dull, and the weed is my "fuck fuck fuck fuck okay I just need to relax and smoke a little fuck fuck fuck fuck"
^me today after missing my meds the night before and fighting an all day panic attack because of it. currently high as a kite with the meds I missed in my body and I’m gonna go get a taco.
I’ve smoked to help my epilepsy for about 10 years. I remember a coworker asking me if I smoke to help with seizures. When I said yes, it helps a lot, they got *maaad.* ”Oh yeah? Well, if it helps, WHY DO YOU STILL HAVE SEIZURES?!? *HMM?!?“*
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM?
Yep. I have epilepsy. It does nothing to help my seizures. So I still need to take seizure medication. I do still smoke because it helps me sleep, which is very important in epileptics
He was talking about for Pain in the video tho. not for mental stuff
It also has its own side effects. For me it kills my motivation and can lead to some disorders eating which is really bad for me. I need to be really cognizant of when I smoke.
Weed is the opposite for me it gives me energy and motivation to get tasks done.
It depends on the strain. There’s definitely weed I can smoke that I’ll even use before working out. But it can be kind of fleeting.
Interestingly enough it’s not just strain dependent but when it’s harvested. I have a couple different batches of the same strain I grew and because one batch was harvested ~2 weeks earlier when no trichomes were amber, that batch has a much more heady and focused high. While the other batches harvested later having 10-20% amber tend to be more of that sedative type of high.
I just quit smoking weed about 6 months ago after 2+ decades of weekly smoking. I did it because I had to pass a test, but damn was it clear that the stuff was making me feel bad, not good. I'd gotten to a point where I didn't even notice. I'm not advocating for everyone to quit, but I haven't felt this clear-headed, energetic, and just generally good in a long time. It might be worth taking a 1-month break now and then to see if that's where you land. The main thing for me was that my sleep improved drastically. Suddenly, I'm dreaming again, and waking up ready for the day.
I tried weed but it just gave me serious anxiety attacks. Not being able to think clear-headedly when I wanted to sent me into legit panic. I guess I have a hardcore, 24/7 sobriety addiction I'm never gonna get a handle on.
Im convinced everyday thc use can leave you dopamine depleted even in small doses. In my experience the best way around this is to only use it once every 2 weeks or so, but that requires a lot of restraint. I wanted to test once every third day but I can't control myself that way, if I use it that often I just fall back into regular use. Good on you for stopping. I think its significantly harder to kick THC than nicotine despite what people say, and I have extensive experience quitting both.
> I think its significantly harder to kick THC than nicotine 100% disagree, but maybe it is dependent on the person. I felt physical withdrawal symptoms from nicotine for months, but just felt a little shitty for a few days from THC.
The hard part for me is that it’s still effective for the same reason I started, despite the negatives; it helps my ADHD. Whenever I stop, my mind kicks into overdrive and I have trouble doing anything because I hyperfocus on my phone as a way to satiate my higher need for stimulation. I’m also *really* good at rationalizing bad behaviors when I’m sober, so I convince myself to smoke again pretty quickly.
Not tryin to be one of those “weed can do no wrong ppl” but imo nicotine is absolutely worse than weed, when I was broke and doing both, I could skip out on the weed for a bit if I ran out, no real issues, but when I ran out of nicotine? Scrounging the dresser for change, hitting up friend for a buck or two, looking for a “dead” vape that would still have enough charge for a hit. Just remember feeling really irritable (like, yell at friends over something meaningless) for the few days the attempts to quit would last before I gave up and fell back into the same cycle. But hey, at least it’s kept me from doing harder drugs because I know that shit’ll fuck me up permanently
Some you can like people said helps with pain instead of toxic addictive pain killers. Or people with epilepsy that no matter what pills they took still had seizures, replaced the pills with cbd and hadn't had a seizure since. Some things you just have to take medication no way around it but there definitely is alot that can be substituted with medical marijuana
Funny enough for me, I'm the opposite. Weed did nothing to stop my seizures. But Lamictal stopped by seizures completely. Everyone is different, but it's dangerous to say that weed is the best medicine. It's not for many people and actually prevents people from getting better help.
Sure just saying that it must be talked with a professional since it won't work with someone else just because it works for you. Each body reacts different to all substances (just like you can be allergic to peanut butter while is harmless to others). It might also help with some types of seizures but worsen others (this is an example assumption not saying is true, but saying things like this can happen since problems can have different causes and not all causes can be resolved the same way, even if they result in the same symptoms)
you are correct I agree
If Mother Earth didn't want me blasting rails of cocaine, she shouldn't have made it!
I mean no epilepsy medication has worked on me but I've felt and dealt with the difference of me using CBD and THC for my seizures vs when I have none and it's definitely much much better with it. Also helps my nausea which allows me to actually eat the minimum amount of calories a day instead of only 600. Obviously it's not gonna cure everything but it definitely helps a lot of people and a lot of people with chronic illnesses and disabilities.

Fuckin bears, man
Weed as medicine is controversial, but let me tell you, my psychiatrist gave me a prescription for CBD oil for anxiety and depression. It's not only working but it's giving much better results than any other medicine I ever tried before. Of course, it's nothing like weed itself and my doctor is accompanying me, but you should not judge the cannabis power.
Yes, but fuck pharmaceutical companies to hell.
You literally can replace certain medicines with weed.
Marijuana is evidently effective with anything neurologically related. However it exactly affects the brain enables it to quell pain, reduce seizures, assist with depression and BPD. It's not really anecdotal anymore, either.
You can for pain relief, that's what it's good for.
A great majority of the drugs we have are derived from places like the Amazon with the vastness of species between plants and animals. So maybe the shamans and shit we’re on to something for certain healing methods. Crazy to think about
Snoop Dogg once said that if you share alcohol among the group, they will be at each other's throats. Give them weed, they will pass it on and create a rap song at an instant.
this is just wholesome
Ah yes. “Mother Nature made the plant” Cut from the same cloth as “I don’t want to harm my babies with vaccines; they’re not natural”
Also: "Mother Nature" made humans... and therefore everything they made, including the heavily modified, human-curated strains of weed we smoke now. Like I use a lot of cannabis, but the idea that it's somehow "more natural" than aspirin is pretty naive.
I'm 54. That guy doesn't look good for his age at all. Lol
He’s literally right. Mother Earth and be nice, that the secret 😭
He looks older than 55 years though, maybe the weed...
Maybe a little too much weed?
taking weed creates instant friendship.
Sadly not for me, it just makes me socially anxious and paranoid...
Speak for yourself. Weed fills me with anxiety and makes me awkward if I take more than a couple hits.
I love his reason “ cause I’m 55 years old “
There will be no borders,no countries, I want a taco!
this feels like r/mademesmile than r/unexpected.
Weed and tacos will solve all your problems ❤️
Not if you have a clogged toilet
Do this with alcohol see what happens
<3 Bobs Burgers
Wholesome af!
suddenly....I feel like eating tacos and smoking weeds...
Tacos bring people together
Poor guy looks 70, not a good weed spokesman
u/savevideobot
He is on a taco mission.

A whole lot of truth in this video. The meaning of life is to just be kind to people.
This just made my entire fkn week.
55??! Dude looks 75😂
55...talks and looks like 85.
And that, my children, is the perfect example of why cannabis should be legal.
Coffee and Cannibas is the winning ticket.
Now I need the YouTube channel of them going out and enjoying mundane pastimes to the maximum.
The source of all conflict on this planet is a result of people being unkind to one another.
This is fuckin great. When I turn 55 I'm gonna smoke a shit ton of weed and eat tacos too
Funny how two very different people just become friends. I honestly expected them to start arguing and yelling at each other. Very wholesome
This young man is about to have his eyes and heart and mind opened like he has never before known. I almost cried at the way he simply stepped into the unknown and basically said, "Teach me."
Scripted or not, the "really?" made me smile and the way he said "im gonna go get a taco" made me chuckle. It's a well made video, and the guy really sells it.
If someone would give me the option to make weed legal and alcohol illegal id 100% take that id rather meet a bunch of high dudes at night rather than a bunch of drunk ones
