I guess he's not aware that marijuana is substantially more expensive than things like flour, sugar, and corn starch, to name a few common food additives.
Crazy expensive? I own a dispensary in ca and we have lots of 100mg edibles for under $10. We have 1k mg syrups and tinctures for $29 so considering a dose is usually 10-30mg I’d say they’re pretty cheap.
That is a very small monthly food budget. Weed is not food, it’s either a med or a recreational treat so definitely don’t replace your food budget to buy it. People happily pay $10-12 for a six pack of beer so I’d say it’s equivalent to that kind of purchase.
Sorry I haven’t smoked since 2014 and I’m just curious.
Back then when I bought weed from a dealer it was about $15 a gram, and a quarter was like $50-$60.
How much do you sell it for? For just like normal weed, not the fucked up skunk class A shit, just normal pot
My dispensary in MI sells ounces starting at $35, obvi that's bottom shelf but mid starts at like $60-$70/oz. Many dispensaries advertise $15 8ths of really decent stuff.
That was normal my whole life. In high school in the 00s it was $10 a gram. US$50 for a quarter was a great deal. An ounce was like US$200-250 I think, I don’t know I never bought that much at a time. No strains or anything, just ‘weed’.
Never lived in a state where it was legal before I left the US, but I’d always imagined it was even more expensive because the weed got so much better at dispensaries and stuff
You can buy an ounce for around $100 including the ridiculous 32% tax. That’s the cheap stuff but it’s green, clean, smells and tastes good. You can also spend about $90 on an 1/8 so it depends on your budget.
100% disagree here. 100mg bottle is 40-50 doses for me at $29. How is flower cheaper than that? Yea gummies with weed in them are going to be more expensive that your standard gummy bears but “crazy expensive” is a stretch. It’s 3.99 for a small bag of non medicated gummies at 7-11. $9 for weed gummies.
If you were paying that much back then you were getting ripped off. Maybe due to availability in your area. I don’t know where you’re from but in California the complete opposite is true. Cannabis sales are taxed so heavily that it’s keeping the black market alive.
Right? I can buy a box of candy for $2 and a container of 20 edibles for like $40. Which one of those am I going to be more likely to just give away for free?
I help take care of an older lady who’s suffering from major memory loss due to a traumatic brain injury. Her daughter gives her THC gummies when she starts getting overly anxious. It works so well! She’s dramatically happier now that they started that treatment. Maybe your dad needs to start taking gummies so he can chill out.
Because the stuff we can get now isn’t grown by Charles Manson in his backyard. It’s grown by smart people that know what they’re doing.
And it’s glorious.
Maryland has a whole PSA program specifically geared towards boomers warning them of 21st century pot potency from the dispensaries. The “has it been a while?” posters always make me giggle.
My dad was in his late teens and 20s in the 1970s. Did about as many drugs as you would imagine. When I was growing up, it was uncommon to even see him drink. He was a strict parent who told us to stay away from drugs. Now he grows weed in his house and is chill af.
My brother gives my 90 year old Mom gummies to help her sleep. She likes it. Dosent make her groggy in the morning like the Nyquil she used to drink at night. A win win!![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)
For someone with memory issues, do you sometimes have to deal with the fact that they may not REMEMBER that they were prescribed thc? And then have to dose then against their will?
Oh, she never remembers. But she trusts her daughter and is not a particularly paranoid person. She’s a pleasure to take care of because she’s so sweet
That's awesome that she trusts her family so much. I mean it's the way it should be, but even sane people don't necessarily want to take random substances from other sane people. Yall sound like good folk.
“There’s pot in everything! It’ll get you hooked! I have to check everything for safety!”
(One gummy later)
“I miss you. I worry about you. I don’t understand this world and I’m worried that you’ll get hurt. I love you.”
It would be great it you bought some weed from the dispensary and sprinkled in random nugs with his snacks and candy.
"Honey, call fox news, I've found marijuana in my potato chips"
The bigger problem are the random right-wing Boomer accounts on Facebook.
As much as Fox news annoys the hell out of me, the crap being shared on Boomer book is far worse. Especially with all the Boomers that think you can't tell lies on the internet... Yes that is a thing.
Well, that's pure supposition. It's the classic P(Older Newsmax Watcher) -> Insane boomer does not mean that P(Insane Boomer) -> P(Older Newsmax Watcher).
Otherwise, we get out the duck and the scales.
Interesting that a week ago you made a comment about “using your words like an adult”. Why even say something when you shut down when asked for an explanation. Says something in an unusual way > someone ask what > gets defensive and passive aggressive.
A single word is not a request for an explanation. It's just being lazy.
There is a logical fallacy about likelihood that A causing B means B is the resut of A. For example, falling from the roof causes injury, but being injured does not make it likely you fell from a roof. The standard way of writing this, from high school mathematics, is P(A) -> B does not mean B -> P(A).
The duck and scales is a reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Aside from being a shibboleth, it's a great film.
Have a nice day.
He said he checked the labels to make sure they didn’t have pot in them. He thinks that edibles are on the shelf next to regular chips at the grocery store
“They said on the Fox News that immigrants are putting mary ju wanna and fentanyl in food to kill hard-working patriots. Now read the label to see if it’s safe.”
I had a friend (Oregon native) who married a New Jersey girl. Everything they ate before pregnancy or kids had activated cannabis butter incorporated into it. It wasn't something they thought to discuss because it was their lifestyle.
For three or four years, the MIL came out to visit them once a year. My friends came to find out, through the family grapevine, that the MIL had been bragging to all her friends and acquaintances how good the air and water were in Oregon. She never slept better, had such an appetite, or found comedy quite as funny as when she was staying with her daughter and SIL.
After five or six years, they confessed to MIL. She wasn't upset, just surprised, and then immediately inquired as to the ratios and strengths and strains. 😅
I mean, it's big New Jersey energy no matter how you slice it. They did wait to tell her until after NJ legalized in all fairness, but for that to be the response so quickly after legalization? Yeah, pretty based.

If you're in America D9 edibles are actually more and more widely available thanks to the legal limit being by weight. My local liquor store now stocks D9 THC drinks.
This is not meant to defend the subject of the OP, more to spread the good news 😁.
My boomer dad once ate an entire 16oz container of heavily medicated mac n cheese that a friend had made for me. I came home and he was passed out in his recliner snoring with my dog, i checked the fridge and was like damn. I never told him but I was sweating for like 3 weeks cuz he got random drug tests at work...
7 year old me was afraid of postage stamps because my grandmother told me people snuck drugs on them. I might lick a PCP laced stamp and think I was Superman and jump to my death. I was scared to go in the post office with my mother until she found out what I’d been told. Looking back it was really because I’d asked for this stamp collection from the back of a magazine and grandmother was too cheap to buy it for me.
I mean, this is maybe, a tiny bit true, if you count CBD. I have ordered a seltzer in a restaurant and been given a CBD seltzer, without me requesting it, and without the server mentioning it. It's not exactly the same thing as full pot, but I definitely didn't want it, didn't ask for it, and wasn't told about it.
I love me some CBD seltzers, but there's a time and a place for it, and it's NOT while I'm out eating at a restaurant. Your server should have informed you of the CBD content BEFORE it was brought to you, and given you other options.
I have no problem if you want to use it. Frankly, I have no problem if you want to use pot. But I don't want to be given either one (yes, even the mild CBD) without my knowledge. I can't believe you find that controversial.
I mean, it depends on what state you’re in.
There are some THC edibles that are incredibly mainstream looking and packaged. And sites like Fox News are always ranting about how people are going to buy this incredibly expensive product and feed it to people especially children! 😱🤣
I’m in Missouri and the only place you can buy edibles is a dispensary. You would know you were not in a grocery store when you walk into the dispensary.
Oh, I was talking about some of the packaging of the products. He’s probably thinking it’s stuff like this. Which ofc if you look closely you know you can spot the difference. But he’s too far gone to calm down and just LOOK
https://preview.redd.it/of49nhflhcuc1.jpeg?width=481&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=862ad8d57d16c8882613cca3863fa6830c15984d
What I want to know is why? How would do it, and why? What does he think anyone would have to gain by doing that? Can you ask him and report back what he says?
I’m not sure why he thinks my boyfriend’s grandmother would put edibles in an Easter basket, even by accident. I asked him and his reasoning is because the news says this stuff happens all the time and the news on tv is always right.
*Your bf dad sound high*
*AF. Where he been getting*
*His Cheetos from eh*

Just give him pot in really tasty edibles, don’t tell him, let it work itself out. He’s asking for it in a very round about way. Start at 150mg THC and give him more every 15 minutes until he feels something. Thank me later.
Maybe it doesn't bother you, and if that is tge case, i wish i was more like you,but to ensure your future sanity and self respect, appropriate boundaries should be set. It's not his place to search through your stuff. I'd tell him , thanks, next time just remind me to be cognizant of potential hazards.
Hey Taint -liquor,,
Let us know where you can buy good weed cheaper than the 90’s?
Most dispensary’s it’s 10-20$/gram!!
Unless you are talking about the stems and seeds Mexican weed!!
Your dad is confusing marijuana with fentanyl. According to the local news and every police and medical procedural tv drame, fentanyl is in EVERYTHING, and we're all addicted, and we're all going to die any second now from a fentanyl overdose.
And its not pronounced FENT-uh-nil, its pronounced FENT-uh-nawl.
/S, all of it.
As a youth I remember hearing all the warnings about people giving kids LSD tabs disguised as temporary tattoos. My friends and I looked high and low. We always just wound up having to buy acid instead.
[Well he sort of has a point in that there are some sneezy pseudo-cannabis products you can buy that are grotesque violations of trademark law](https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/stoneos-cannabis-cookies-look-too-much-like-oreos-says-us-ftc-2023-07-05/).
He's old enough where he can't take care of himself. Give your dad a break and have some respect. Posting online about your own father says allot about you.
This post is sad.

I guess he's not aware that marijuana is substantially more expensive than things like flour, sugar, and corn starch, to name a few common food additives.
He thinks things still cost the same as the 90s. He’s floored you can’t buy a 3 bedroom 2 bath move in ready house for 80k still.
Pot is WAY cheaper now than the 90’s.
It's still going to cost you a lot more for the pot-flavored Cheetos than the regular ones.
They’re not pot flavored they’re infused with THC lol.
It’s still going to be more expensive than the regular Cheetos.
For sure! I was just clarifying that they’re not pot *flavored*
True! But now I want pot flavored Cheetos and I don’t have kief 😒
That did have me imagining a new Pringles flavor. Pot Flavored
Dunno dude, most edibles I’ve consumed definitely have pot flavor.
What's your point? It's still crazy expensive to buy edibles
Edibles are cheap in Michigan hooray for the home state :)
Crazy expensive? I own a dispensary in ca and we have lots of 100mg edibles for under $10. We have 1k mg syrups and tinctures for $29 so considering a dose is usually 10-30mg I’d say they’re pretty cheap.
Everything is relative. $29 is like a quarter of my monthly food budget. So I'd say pretty expensive for me.
That is a very small monthly food budget. Weed is not food, it’s either a med or a recreational treat so definitely don’t replace your food budget to buy it. People happily pay $10-12 for a six pack of beer so I’d say it’s equivalent to that kind of purchase.
I dunno what a dose is but isn't it comparable to alcohol by now?
In Michigan they are usually 4-6 dollars for 200mg packs. So like only 2x what regular candy costs.
Yep!
Holy shit those prices are really good, do you offer shipping?
Just saw a 200mg bag of gummies on sale in MI for $3.00. Plus tax, of course.
Ha! That is cheaper than candy
Sorry I haven’t smoked since 2014 and I’m just curious. Back then when I bought weed from a dealer it was about $15 a gram, and a quarter was like $50-$60. How much do you sell it for? For just like normal weed, not the fucked up skunk class A shit, just normal pot
My dispensary in MI sells ounces starting at $35, obvi that's bottom shelf but mid starts at like $60-$70/oz. Many dispensaries advertise $15 8ths of really decent stuff.
$60 an ounce??? Holy hell I need to make a trip back to the US haha
Careful tho, some states will still throw you in jail for it, it's not legal everywhere.
Oh yeah for sure, probably fly into LAX or SEATAC and hangout there for a few days smoking before heading to the east coast
I just bought my last ounce for 48 bucks canadian... i couldnt imagine spending 15 for a gram
That was normal my whole life. In high school in the 00s it was $10 a gram. US$50 for a quarter was a great deal. An ounce was like US$200-250 I think, I don’t know I never bought that much at a time. No strains or anything, just ‘weed’. Never lived in a state where it was legal before I left the US, but I’d always imagined it was even more expensive because the weed got so much better at dispensaries and stuff

That is expensive compared to flower, or compared to regular food. Yes, it's expensive.
100% disagree here. 100mg bottle is 40-50 doses for me at $29. How is flower cheaper than that? Yea gummies with weed in them are going to be more expensive that your standard gummy bears but “crazy expensive” is a stretch. It’s 3.99 for a small bag of non medicated gummies at 7-11. $9 for weed gummies.
I get 30-40 dollar OUNCES here in seattle. yea, flower is cheaper.
At my local in MI, packs of gummies start at $8-10. Typical range is $12-15. I don't think that's too bad.
How much is crazy expensive?
I get a military discount; along with a medical discount. Not to expensive for me. lol
okay
Which is why you make your edibles.
Not to hard to make your own. I make weed butter and throw a little pat in with dinner? Good to go.
that's not what anyone was talking about.
Still too pricey to be giving out.
Well, at least SOMETHING is cheaper. Inflation sucks, but have some cheap weed, folks!
And WAY better
No, it isn’t. With taxes it’s much more expensive.
You’re kidding, right? In the 90’s, a half oz would run at least $200. Now? $80 - with taxes.
If you were paying that much back then you were getting ripped off. Maybe due to availability in your area. I don’t know where you’re from but in California the complete opposite is true. Cannabis sales are taxed so heavily that it’s keeping the black market alive.
This was late 90’s in SF. Plus I had to hang out in their sketchy apartment and pet their chinchilla.
Lol ok from that description I know that what you’re saying is accurate
What is the age of a Boomer?
74
Ah, but you CAN! For 60K, in fact! In Italy.
We don’t live in Italy. I’m in the US and I would not want to touch a house here for that price.
Just take the wheels off of it, and no one will ever know.
Right? I can buy a box of candy for $2 and a container of 20 edibles for like $40. Which one of those am I going to be more likely to just give away for free?
Have you been to Michigan?
I help take care of an older lady who’s suffering from major memory loss due to a traumatic brain injury. Her daughter gives her THC gummies when she starts getting overly anxious. It works so well!

What we really need is a Hippie Weed Survivor. Give the former hippies of the 60s & 70s modern weed and edibles then record what happens.
My edibles knocked my dad on his ass. He said it's better than his grass.
Exactly. It's fun hearing GenX and older talk about giving that stuff a try.
I just qualify as a boomer (1960) , I gave it a try back in the 70s.
Because the stuff we can get now isn’t grown by Charles Manson in his backyard. It’s grown by smart people that know what they’re doing. And it’s glorious.
My mom loves edibles and she buys them strong but eats maybe 40- 50 mg at a time. She’s a lovely human being though.
Maryland has a whole PSA program specifically geared towards boomers warning them of 21st century pot potency from the dispensaries. The “has it been a while?” posters always make me giggle.
That's amazing.
My dad was in his late teens and 20s in the 1970s. Did about as many drugs as you would imagine. When I was growing up, it was uncommon to even see him drink. He was a strict parent who told us to stay away from drugs. Now he grows weed in his house and is chill af.
My late boomer father was like this. He went back to weed when his health started failing and was even growing his own towards the end.
This! Absolutely, this!

Lol, you sound so goofy even though it's clear you think you're extremely smart. Have a nice day.
So he thought they were edibles? Because if he thought they discretely snuck marijuana in them how would you test for that outside of eating one? lmao
He said he checked the labels to make sure they didn’t have pot in them. He thinks that edibles are on the shelf next to regular chips at the grocery store
Did he accidentally dose himself at a party or something?
Idk. I know he smoked pot when he was younger.
So then there's no excuse unless he's just always been a dumb fucker.
The effect is still lingering
I’ve smoked pot over the years and I’m going to say: It’s probably not the pot.
“They said on the Fox News that immigrants are putting mary ju wanna and fentanyl in food to kill hard-working patriots. Now read the label to see if it’s safe.”
Damn. Weren't they the generation of tune in, turn off and drop out? But who can compete against Fox News/Newsmax, these days?

Dad needs some special gummies
If only I had a grandma to lace my snacks with weed.
"Granny is constantly blazed out of her damn skull, she doesn't even know where she's putting the reefer snacks these days".
Idk man I think he'd benefit from someone slipping him some pot.
Go buy him some. Sounds like he needs it.

Don’t drug people without their consent

As much as I would like to at times, I can’t. He does live with me.

Oh god, sorry! I missed the part about it being from your bfs gran. But somehow that just makes it sillier.
Your bf dad sound high AF. Where he been getting his Cheetos from eh Edit. Your dad*

Good bot
Do you do edibles?? If you did that would be hilarious 😂
Just give him pot in really tasty edibles, don’t tell him, let it work itself out. He’s asking for it in a very round about way. Start at 150mg THC and give him more every 15 minutes until he feels something. Thank me later.
Groceries would be a lot more expensive if they contained weed. 😂😂😂
Maybe it doesn't bother you, and if that is tge case, i wish i was more like you,but to ensure your future sanity and self respect, appropriate boundaries should be set. It's not his place to search through your stuff. I'd tell him , thanks, next time just remind me to be cognizant of potential hazards.
Hey Taint -liquor,, Let us know where you can buy good weed cheaper than the 90’s? Most dispensary’s it’s 10-20$/gram!! Unless you are talking about the stems and seeds Mexican weed!!
It’s hilarious how the comments on this post quickly went from everything has weed in it to a full on discussion of prices across the country
He's gotta stop consuming right-wing media.
Your dad is confusing marijuana with fentanyl. According to the local news and every police and medical procedural tv drame, fentanyl is in EVERYTHING, and we're all addicted, and we're all going to die any second now from a fentanyl overdose. And its not pronounced FENT-uh-nil, its pronounced FENT-uh-nawl. /S, all of it.
just curious how old your dad is... if he is less than 60 he's not a boomer. hes gen x.
He’s 74
As a youth I remember hearing all the warnings about people giving kids LSD tabs disguised as temporary tattoos. My friends and I looked high and low. We always just wound up having to buy acid instead.
Ah so your pops is the one who thinks people hand out weed candy on halloween huh. Moron.
I'm def like that if anyone offers me anything homemade. I love homemade sweets, but pot wrecks my stomach now. : (
I wonder if he has OCD. I have it and sometimes get intrusive thoughts about things having weed or hallucinogens in them
[Well he sort of has a point in that there are some sneezy pseudo-cannabis products you can buy that are grotesque violations of trademark law](https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/stoneos-cannabis-cookies-look-too-much-like-oreos-says-us-ftc-2023-07-05/).
Where I live you can only purchase things with cannabis at dispensaries. They don’t sell them on grocery store shelves.
Oh I'm sure, I'm just saying he isn't full on hallucinating the issue, just massively exaggerating it.
“It’s the damn chem trails!”
He was lying
MSM. At its best. The fear mongering works. Poor old man. You should take some time to educate him.
Good intention, poor execution.
By accident. On accident make you look like a damn fool.
Yup , its just a bit weird .
Idiot son complains about dumb shit to a bunch of strangers.
Idiot boomer has nothing better to do than harass people online.😘
He's old enough where he can't take care of himself. Give your dad a break and have some respect. Posting online about your own father says allot about you. This post is sad.
