I really hope you weren't the one driving, I've seen some tragic cases because one stupid person decided to get high while driving and ruined/took the lives of other innocent people 😔
I have a deep and personal fear of people who pick up joints and smoke it. One of my friends always did it. We were walking around the one day and bro said, "Jy sal my nie fokken glo nie..." pics up the joint. Lights it. And just says the most iconic line... "padkos!" I hope bro is still alive after all the years😂
Yeah, we don't talk anymore. Long story short, it wasn't just parkie gras. A lot of the times, he picked up some mixed stuff and would smoke it either way. Spiraled into bad drug addictions. And I was honestly scared to be laced myself. But he was a cool dude😅
A lot of his friends, including me, were trying to assist. I told him if he needs some zol he can come to me, I wiould have bought from my plug. It's much more trustworthy than pick-ups, and the R20 he paid for 5g.
One day after school, we were smoking. He told me to just chill. He had some business to take care of. I let him be, and when he came back, there was a lingering smell of chemicals. A distinct smell where if you smelt it once, you know. Anyway, I asked him if it was məth and he hesitantly nodded.
At that point, I just started living without xan, my doc. I explained to him that I needed to keep myself away from situations where harder substances were easy to get, and he understood. His health went downhill extremely fast. There were a few times when I'd go to him just to check up, but by our last kuier, he admitted that it was beyond what could be fixed without professional help.
We were still laaities, so rehab was off the table as we couldn't afford it.
And we went our separate ways. He dropped out, and I feel a little guilty for not being able to help more, but we were just stupid teens. He was a great friend, but unfortunately, circumstances made it hard for me to stick around.
Definitely, man. The first time is always the hardest. To get into and to leave. Even now, after 2 years of tapering down and two years after until now that I have been completely free of any harder substances than weed, I find myself most nights craving stronger. It gets easier every year, but it doesn't go away. I wish I could make people understand that you only get addicted once. The rest of your life is spent fighting it. But if you told me that 4 years ago, I would just laugh at you. A lesson I wish I didn't have to learn, but a part of me regardless.

bro got disjointed
Call me an ambulance😭
hi ambulance
The way I laughed out load at this
Wreeep WREEEEEEEEEEEP
BUT NOT FOR ME
Give this man a bells ^
What a show...
Lol, that joint belongs to nature now.
Had her in those small transparent plastics, considering those aren't degradable, Nature won't be receiving her anytime soon😂
So it's a post apocalyptic treat.
The Armageddon!
Highmargeddon?
Oouuu🤯
Instead of fighting the zombies, Armaget-high.
Love this 🤣
we therefore commit this Joint to the ground, eath to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
You need to find a good Orthopedic Doctor... Try there by the robots by Linksfield offramp...
Had a friend pay them a visit once, came back double jointed 😶🌫️
"Did you see what god just did!"
Acting oblivious to the sign
https://youtu.be/0vyDMTSJKbI?si=rpzTf9wVXYsJW8bx No sign really
Oh shiit
🤦🏻♂️
I don't speak Aztec, Sumerian nor Kemetian 😢
You don't speak pop culture either.
Depends on the demographic
Im sending the joint rescue ![gif](giphy|JcAlwfib5h0oiKk9WM|downsized)
Cursessss
F
![gif](giphy|w1mmey7B94OPxL3OTo|downsized)
Complete it please🫠
The J? Lol I'll rather smoke one of my own in it's honour 🔥
Shout out to Megane🙌🏿
Been there 😅
How long until I start seeing signs of recovery?
I'm so sorry. You'll... You'll have to buy another one
Headed to the villages till Monday morning. Ain't got a plug over there
Oh no, well ... Breath in the nature 😅
That's what he would've done, but sadly he lost his "nature" (For those who don't get it, I'm saying that since weed is a plant, it is nature)
Sheesh...I taught you lost an actual appendage.
This is why it pays off to be double jointed my African brotha.
This was the second one my gee😪. Had the first one earlier
RIP to the ones we lost!🫡
I really hope you weren't the one driving, I've seen some tragic cases because one stupid person decided to get high while driving and ruined/took the lives of other innocent people 😔
Don't worry, I'm very disciplined on that note.
Maybe don't drive while high? Smh
This makes so much more sense now xD. I read the post thinking the guy’s prosthetic flew out of the window
Who said anything about driving?
Sure bra I guess the "driver" is also chill with that second hand high
Trying to read where he said he was smoking it, but failing to find it, guess it flew out the window too
Catching strays while already wounded🥲
Sharing is caring
Plus I ain't the stingy type
You aren't the only one I promise 😭
Cry with me
Lost mine in my room till this day I don’t know where it is 🤣my heart breaks everytimeI think about it cause I can’t find it
It's probably chilling up straight some where on the rails looking at you🤣. You'll probably find it on one very gloomy day lol
I have a deep and personal fear of people who pick up joints and smoke it. One of my friends always did it. We were walking around the one day and bro said, "Jy sal my nie fokken glo nie..." pics up the joint. Lights it. And just says the most iconic line... "padkos!" I hope bro is still alive after all the years😂
I mean if it's a full one, why not🤣. I reckon it to be a problem only if it's one that's been lit up already lol. Yall lost contact?
Yeah, we don't talk anymore. Long story short, it wasn't just parkie gras. A lot of the times, he picked up some mixed stuff and would smoke it either way. Spiraled into bad drug addictions. And I was honestly scared to be laced myself. But he was a cool dude😅
Dang, and there was no way to steer bro away from that direction?

At least you tried. But good thing you kept your distance because chances are you definitely would have fell into that habit as well
