Weed is the classic example of "to each his own"

Really feel bad for all the apartment and town home residents.

Until you live somewhere with shared walls and your weed smoke permeates my apartment or townhouse. Vomitous.

Posts in the DC politics thread here have long talked about the awful scenario of living next to (or in apartments, above or below) pot smokers. Constant stench inside your own home.

So was smoking.

It was crazy at the dispensary last week, because medical cardholders were hoping to stock up before the recreational use became legal. I only was able to get one small bag of gummies and one new small pot of THC/CBD balm (which does not get you high as it is not ingested) that I rub on my knees, ankles and lower back to reduce pain and swelling.

I’ll run out, but I don’t think I’m going to try to go back until September or so.

Why were they stocking up? Won’t it be more available now?

People could—and have—said the same thing about tobacco smoke, perfume, Indian spices and other strong smells when others are cooking, perfume/lotion, incense, etc. If living smell-free from your neighbors is that important to you, get a SFH.

I mean, it will be a sudden and drastic increase in customers that will take a while to level out. I don’t get what you don’t get about that. If a bakery that typically serves 200 customers a day suddenly serves 600 customers today, you think there would be a few bumps in supply and staffing, yeah?

I don't think the recreational buyers can access the same stuff as the medical cannabis cardholders.

The Maryland Cannabis Administration put out emergency regulations for the beginning of the market. Stores will reserve high potency products for people who use medical marijuana. Dispensaries must also set aside certain hours where medical patients can exclusively shop or set up a fast lane so they can checkout with their products quicker.

If I’m happy, I want a clear head to enjoy it. If I’m having troubles, I want a clear head to confront them. Either way, I want to feel like me.

sex is amazing! both my wife and I love the effect. I last longer also.

A few puffs makes sex feel spiritual.
I’m very pleased that it will be easier to get.

As a medical card holder, and someone who doesn't need the high potency stuff, I'm excited not to have to pay the dr and registration fees.

I’m more concerned with the smell of blood after school shootings, but hey, we all have our concerns.

Your concern is low incidence, high consequence.

The smell of cannabis is high incidence, low consequence.

Treat accordingly.

Color me dumb.

Almost all have medical marijuana. It’s still illegal recreationally in most of the Southern states. Not surprising.
