Like many of you, I'm a slightly older guy, conservative, kind of set in my ways, convinced that I'm right about most things. So it's extremely humbling to find out something about which I have been totally wrong my entire life. That's what happened to me recently.
I've been completely anti-drug my entire life. Occasionally I was kind of a dick with my kids trying to make sure that they never smoked pot. I had little respect for pot smokers. I thought they were lazy, shiftless, and lacking in ambition. While I questioned the obscene amounts of money that LE spent on enforcing drug laws. I otherwise have no problem with the notion that marijuana should be illegal. I didn't really distinguish between marijuana and other drugs like cocaine or heroin.They were all illegal drugs, I had no interest, and they were a blight to society.
I was dead wrong. Completely. Can't get more wrong. I love getting high and am going to do it for many years to come.
I've learned two things through this. First, you can't criticize something if you don't understand it. And sometimes, and this is true with marijuana, you can't understand something until you've experienced it. Second, there is at least some truth to the adage that "you're only as old as the women you fuck." When you build a regular relationship with a young woman, she will challenge many of the assumptions that you base your life on. And listen to her because sometimes she may be right.
With one exception that you will see below, I'm not planning to make a big pitch for marijuana in this post. Everybody decide for yourself. It's all good. But there is one thing about pot that seems particularly relevant to this board and so I am going to share that. Marijuana enhances the strip club experience in a way that alcohol cannot touch. When I'm high in the club, I don't just hear the music, I feel it and I see it too. I've been listening to music for 50 years, but I never really heard it, I never really understood it, until now. And the second thing is the combination of being high and naked women. Marijuana enhances all sensations and makes things that are good that much better. In strip club terms, what this means for me is that most dancers are elevated by about 1.5 points in looks. So a7 becomes an 8.5, an 8 becomes a 9.5, etc. Now of course this can be dangerous. If you make a 5 into a marginally acceptable 6.5, you will be ashamed of yourself in the morning if you're not careful. But when you find a 9.5, or that one in a million dream stripper, for the first time in your life you will experience an 11 +. It's getting even better now that I've figured out how to smoke pot in the club without detection.
And when the night of clubbing, fucking and sucking is over, the pot will cause you to slowly drift off into a peaceful sleep. You wake up in the morning refreshed, with no hangover of any type, and at least partial memories of a great time the precious night.
So if you never tried pot before, or if your use was very occasional or decades ago, just consider the possibility that the guy with the dream stripper sex stories might be onto something. We've got to be willing to consider the possibility sometimes that what we think is right might actually be very wrong.
Got something to say?
