The Wharf - disgusting

[Anonymous]

Haven’t been for awhile and really enjoyed it except for the constant, very overpowering smell of pot. It was a warm muggy night and we ate outside (big mistake) so the smell would not dissipate. I can tolerate a whiff here and there but this was like being in a smoke filled bar. Just got home and my hair smells like it and I have a headache.
Despite all the signs prohibiting it, no one listened, no one monitored, no one cared. We had fun but won’t go back. I really wish pot wasn’t legalized. I wish people would just chew gummies instead.

ugh really? that sucks.

it's still illegal to smoke pot outside. I would have approached a police officer or called 911 and complained. If enough people do that, maybe they will start enforcing it.

agree with you re gummies.

lol! You haven’t been to DC in a while, have you? Cops don’t do anything until after a gun is actually fired.

As someone who used to live in MD and work in Suitland, I unfortunately have experienced the reality that pot smell lingers in cars and on people even if the people aren't smoking at the moment; you can smell that skunk smell from their car when it drives by your even if your windows are closed. So the people there may not have been smoking at the moment but they and all they have on and their cars smell like pot.

Lighten up. You’re all a bunch of squares.

I’ve never called MPD, I’m no busybody, but I might call i f I experienced this. I have asthma and sometimes I am short of breath for hours after smoke exposure. Also my employer does random drug tests (just like many, many employers in DC do) and I worry with enough second-hand smoke exposure I could test positive. I’m not willing to risk my health and job for people who obviously have no concern for me and others.

I would never call the police but also agree - I hate the smell of pot and it makes my throat hurt. #Gummies+100

I encourage you to call. Yeah maybe they won’t do anything but if enough people to complain, maybe they will.

I was there last night and it was unbearable. My throat was killing me. We left the early and won’t go back. Security is afraid to approach the smokers so it’s a free for all. I seriously don’t understand why it was legalized??

I moved out of DC because the smell bothered me so much. I get that this is the political will generally but it’s certainly not my political will.

Hah, the police will do nothing. They get enough complaints about "harassing" young people for "minor" crimes like this. They're just not going to bother.

I had the same thought. I work in Foggy Bottom and every day I come off the escalator of the metro in front of GW hospital and I'm engulfed in a cloud of pot smoke, even when I have to be at work at 7am.

This is everywhere in DC, OP. Like even outside of the museums.

Seriously it’s not about being a square ( who talks like that these days 🤣 but it’s about smelling like crap or getting headaches. I definitely don’t wants kids walking through clouds of pit smoke on the sidewalk. I am all fir the gummies too.
