One reason I don’t care for gift-giving holidays is that most people feel obligated to buy, give and keep worthless crap. Hey, I feel guilty giving (or throwing) my gifts away too! But lately I’ve realized my feelings of relief top my feelings of guilt when I get rid of things I don’t need.
“Oh, so our gifts aren’t good enough for you, you ungrateful bastard?”
Pretty much. Seeing people doing something meaningful with their time and money would be an awesome gift for me, though.
Chuck Heston is doing cartwheels somewhere. Coloradoan gun activists are already pissed off that marijuana users cannot get a license to carry a concealed firearm. I wouldn’t have guessed that issue topped the list for… anyone. On the other hand, I haven’t been to Colorado in over ten years. Maybe concealed guns are a necessity.
Personally, I live in California, use medicinally, own a pellet gun, and only shoot when sober. That doesn’t mean everyone has such incredible common sense, though.
12/20-I just had to quote my mom from breakfast this morning:
“Wow, look at the waves out there! I think there are surfers out there! Or maybe it’s just spots on the window.”
OMG. Maybe it’s just me, but that’s spit-take-worthy.
12/21-My parents… True Democrats to the core. Even getting ready to host a party, and they still talk and talk and talk about doing stuff and getting ready, and never do it! Four hours until the party, and they aren’t even here. Give me a break. I bet if I told them their son was a Republican they’d have simultaneous heat(sic) attacks. For the record, I don’t approve of any political party enough to claim it. Guess I’ll have to start my own.
I have a new line of hot sauces. I have a name, tagline, and a starburst for each bottle. I’m trusting that no one I plan to give hot sauce to for xmas reads this. I rate it at an 89% likelihood no one sees it.
1.) Controlled Substance Hot Sauce, “Give your food SPICE without parole!”, FDA DENIED! (also, “Charge your food with having a concealed weapon… of FLAVOR!”)
2.) Walter’s Own Big Leb-OW!-ski Hot Sauce, “Not cool, dude!”, NOW WITH DONNIE”S ASHES!
*my own cannabis hot sauce will be called ‘blaze’ in small black and white lettering.
I don’t care what the people say, Obama is the Man! Restoring Cuban relations? Brilliant. Pro baseball players, cigars, bananas, marijuana, any extra Castros lying around… Now we can have them all, and stop being fools. It may crush some dedicated black marketeers, but otherwise help economies of the two countries. You can hold a grudge against the Castro family, but staying angry at all of Cuba? That does not make sense.
In thousands of years, humans will integrate to the point that race is no longer an attribute to get worked up over. I predict race will still contain historical importance, but will be mostly referred to in an aesthetic manner. Our human genetics would still create a general fear of the unknown, but only ignorance creates hatred between races, and instincts will prevail! Put a neo-nazi woman in an abandoned town with a hesidic jewish man, and they will probably procreate anyway. That approach makes a lot of hate-fueled acts futile, and makes racism pointless.
Santa made an early delivery to me, and I got a vaporizer! Mostly because I picked up a head cold, and was coughing too much to smoke actual smoke. But now I can still toke the toke! har-dee-har…
I’m horrible at saving money because I get a good “retail high”, I call it, from acquiring new things. And I’m talking actual shopping; clothes, electronics, sport stuff, etc. any purchase at all. I admit it’s a problem, and it hurts, because I never have enough to buy something of quality. Santa knows this. (He’s the head of the NSA.) And instead of getting an already completed packaged vaper, I got a component set, and I love it! All the parts are quality, but if something breaks, I can afford to replace one part for another quality part, instead of blowing money on complete poorly-made vapers that look cool and not much else. The component set up was fun for me to assemble, but not easy. I like getting to see the inner components and workings. I’m sure not every novice vaper-er has the patience to sit and mess around with parts for an hour like I did though.
I like Snoop Dogg’s new line of vaper sets… the G Pen he calls it. The aesthetics are slick, no question there, and it’s moderately priced compared with others like it. But as a middle-class chubby white male in the suburbs, I can’t help but feel a little phony using a vaper with a map of Long Beach covering the outside (not joking!) So be careful not to lose any profit by intimidating the wanna-be G’s, Snoop-a-loop!
What I really enjoy is how the public’s view of marijuana and marijuana users is changing to be more serious, albeit slowly. I use it is as a med, not a party favor, and it bothers me that I can’t go into the doctor’s office that prescribed it, and get instruction on how to use it. Forgive my skepticism of the online YouTube hippy wearing a lab coat, telling me what drug and how much to put inside me. I’m confident that will almost surely change within a… decade maybe? That’s my conservative estimate.
Here are some of my favorite perks of the vaper that I think help people take cannabis seriously: They’re so much more professional looking, thank goodness. It’s so nice to not have bong water sloshing around, stinking up the place, along with the real smoke. And I don’t have to get ridiculously named strains anymore, just the concentrate. Give me a break, I come out of a seizure disoriented, vomiting, smeared with dirt and my own blood, and I reach for my Scooby-Doo Sparkleberry Kush? Wrong. Anyway, my oh-so-humble opinion is that the benefits of the vaper far outweigh smoking a pipe. Like, REALLY far. Contact your local Santa or religious equivalent today!
(Warning: This is my first blog, which is really a “test blog”. So please don’t judge…yet.)
It’s surprising to me that there is no prescription drug (that I know of) to combat obesity. Wouldn’t that be a bazillion dollar venture in profit? Looking at ads for medications, I can tell that Americans are deeply concerned about erectile dysfunction, depression, diabetes side effects, sleep aids, cholesterol levels, etc. But what I see is an astonishing display of “treating the symptoms, not the cause”. The conditions I previously mentioned are certainly not trivial, but they can all be treated by losing extra weight.
More of a thought than a blog, I know…
See you next time!
