Huzzah.

Truer words were never spoken..










Oh and I will bring the Blunt, if you each hold one of my hands.

I would be more honored then you would ever know.



ps> I might still bring a blunt if you don't mind. So we 3 can hold hands longer. *sharkberry grin*

We'll go arms swinging through the park with a fat one burning!
It's a beautiful day.

It, sure as the shoes on my feet, is. With a little help from my friends, I'm sure every day can have it's beauty.



and now you have witnessed me blowing sunshine simultaneaously up everyone's ass.






"Rectum?! I damn near killed him!"

This is an extremely awkward position to be in, unless you are flexible. It isn't crucial that you are in the position. Just find a comfortable one.

Actually, if you have a problem staying awake whilst meditiating, the lotus position is a good one. According to my Tai Chi instructor, it was designed specifically with the purpose of keeping you awake as you meditate.

That is, if you can manage to get yourself into it. That was always my problem.

If only like we could do like Kodos and Kang in The Simpsons episode where they are Dole and Clinton, exchanging long protein strands by holding hands. That could possibly work, since serotonin is protein-transmitted. Not that I got a lot, but maybe a good transaction could take place anyway? I love that scene, where they walk down the street hand in hand, and the campaign advisor pulls up in a car, saying it's probably not a good idea to be seen like that. Whereupon Bill (or Bob?) answers: "We are exchanging long protein strands. If you know of a more effective way, I'd like to hear it."

We're not Clinton and Dole, though, so it probably wouldn't look so weird if we did it.

Holding hands feels good, either way, so I think we can safely say it's an effective method for relieving anxiety and depression. Once again, there is an important lesson to be gleaned from years and years of mad Simpsons-watching.

Let's hold hands. (And share a blunt.)

This post made me smile! *hugs Pitseleh*

By the way, is a blunt the same as a spliff? I've not heard it before.

I think I'll try it, Bjork - I always fail at the clear-your-mind technique but visualisation sounds like something I'd be good at. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it is. Those crazy Yanks!

[Oubliette]

Yes a blunt is the same as a spliff.

[Empty_Purple_Stars]

Well no, not totally.

A blunt is rolled by emptying the Tobacco out of a Flavored Cigar of your choice, and filling it with an err 'alternate herb'.

You wet the edges of the Cigar Wrapper, and re-roll it.

A lovely variation on that is the 'Honey Blunt'. Where the edges of the wrapper are coated in Honey, so the 'blunt' burns slower. Blunts are usually shared among a group of friends.

A Spliff is basically just a hand rolled 'cigarette'.

Not as big, but can be as potent depending on the err Herbal Inhabitant of said Spliff.

Thus concludes your American Herbal Slang lesson.

I use 'blunt' and 'spliff' interchangeably...

the hand rolled ciggerette thing I call a joint or a bone.


must be just me.

[pitseleh]

Yep, yep, and yep. I mean, the different types of joint being called what they are. Blunts are named after the cigar brand "Philadelphia/Philly Blunts", aren't they though? We don't have those in Norway, I just like the word.

Oh, and me and my friends usually call it a "Jonas".

Waay off topic, but this is an important subject!

[Wise Child]

Gah! Let's just roll out the bong. That way there's no confusion. A bong is a bong in every country.

Man, that's beautiful. Who knew I was deep?

We're distracting ourselves from the subject at hand. It's all good.


Philly Blunts really taste kinda icky, I prefer Garcia & Vega Ciggarellos.

Honey blunts are primo too (like E_P_S was referring to). I'm also fond, on special occasions, of using goldshlagger in place of honey. It's sticky goodness.

You must be a minor, then? I imagine if you weren't, you'd be charged with assault for "smashing their f***ing faces in", yes?

Xnguela, I'm very glad you pointed this out. It bothers the hell out of me when people overuse the word prep because when I see these "preps", they aren't in polo’s nor pleated skirts, but with bleached blonde hair and an Abercrombie sweater walking around going "Ohh my gaw, this is like, so not cool!" If people want to ridicule "preps", they should at least address them with an original word, not one with a different meaning.

[bjork_freak]

I also don't understand why some people think "preps" have their own way of thinking, and go as far as excluding them from the human race. I've known some very respectful and nonjudgmental "preps". They shouldn't be labeled because they talk a certain way, or dress a certain way.

Anytime anyone says "I hate X", if 'X' isn't someone's name specifically then that person is operating under what are likely very false assumptions. Groups of people are never 'the same' except for some similarity that is rarely a registerable percentage of their total personality.

this "preps" i talk about are rich and one i mostly refer to is someone who wears the sweaters on her sholders and not nameing names(Amanda)is very mean and teases me and only me sorry i affended all of the good "preps" out there

Technically you are not rich. Your father is rich.



and now I'm done splitting hairs.
