I am a reg here and have name changed.

Me and my DH have made some pot brownies for tonight I have never smoked pot before or even been stoned. Were off to amsterdam next year and I would like a space cake over there so we thought we would try at home first before in an unfamiliar setting.

I am a bit excited nervous and again excited! Anyone ever made pot brownies what was it like? AIBU to be excited?

thanks for outlining the argument for legalisation specialsubject
I grow my own by the way so no one is stabbed or groomed so that I can get high

Surely the only thing you will get from such a small amount in that size a tray bake is a sugar rush! I can't for the life of me understand why you didn't have a smoke first if you've never tried it before. Hope you have a good night tho!!

How's your husband doing op?

Greenbrownies · 12/10/2018 17:48

I've taken lots of different drugs but eating hash cakes was truly horrible. I genuinely thought that one of my housemates was the devil. It wasn't fun.

Greenbrownies · 12/10/2018 17:49

so hes on his 3rd this isnt going to end well

He's probably right, given it's two hours since he started into them. Probably need quarter of the tray each.

Oh no! Forced to eat more brownies! The horror Grin

Aye I used to as well.

But aye, that does neatly lay out the valid arguments for legalisation. It would also loosen the grip that dealers and gangsters have on entire areas, and the damage they cause.

Greenbrownies · 12/10/2018 17:51

am on the 2nd brownie.

So EVERYONE is telling you to go easy and you just ate two? Confused

CherryBlossom23 · 12/10/2018 18:01

OP is probably just taking the piss, doubt it's actually genuine.

YeTalkShiteHen · 12/10/2018 18:02

OP is going to need that bucket Grin

TheWiseWomansFear · 12/10/2018 18:05

Try a couple of bites and then wait an hour. Pot brownies make me have fits

Greenbrownies · 12/10/2018 18:05

its been almost 2hours for my husband and he said he feels normal not stoned one bit so I ate another...... surely after almost an hour for me aswell i would have felt something by now.

This is why we saved some I think it may be smoked afterall

Good for you Grin I think it's nice that you are doing this together. It sounds like you have done some research. Yes - weed is stronger than it used to be but even so, the amount you put in that massive cake is unlikely to screw you up - no more so than overdoing it with wine on a night out. Just don't scoff them all at once or attempt anything daft and you'll be fine!

I'm pleasantly surprised with the amount of people that left positive comments vs the overly concerned judgy people. Have fun!

Bluntness100 · 12/10/2018 18:06

Lol. Which part of it takes at least two or three hours for you to digest it and it to start to impact did the pair of you fail to understand?

YeTalkShiteHen · 12/10/2018 18:07

All of it apparently Grin

Never mind, she’ll wake up buckled on Sunday morning at this rate Confused

Lethaldrizzle · 12/10/2018 18:13

I'm not a consumer of marijuana and the like, apart from the odd hash brownie in my very well spent youth but even I think they should legalise it

YourVagesty · 12/10/2018 18:14

How are you feeling OP?

Last time I got stoned, I just fell into a deep sleep Grin Total waste of time.

WasabiSpring · 12/10/2018 18:17

Lol! Happy tripping. Give it another hour before you scoff more.

Retiredraver22 · 12/10/2018 18:19

In my experience it doesn't take 2-3 hours. 1-2 max on an empty stomach. I'm not saying OP should eat more at this point, just that she's probably not going to keel over from the second one she ate. It's a bit late now anyway Grin

BoundByBriars · 12/10/2018 18:21

Definitely takes about 2 hrs to start taking effect. I made that mistake once and only once!! Grin

longwayoff · 12/10/2018 18:21

Urgh. Takes me back. Dont eat a whole one straight off. Listen to everyone on here, its nowhere near as innocuous as it sounds.

BoundByBriars · 12/10/2018 18:23

@Retiredraver22 (love the name!)

I suppose, like alcohol, it depends on your constitution and what else you’ve eaten recently. OP hasn’t eaten since 12!

WasabiSpring · 12/10/2018 18:24

OMg though, whoever posted that link to the Reddit thread - so many funny stories on there. My favourite:

"Edibles are savage.

I tried them for pain relief after a surgery a few years ago. I'm chilling watching one of those home decorating shows where they make over one room of the house. Anyway, the hosts voice starts to morph and sound weird. The colors are vivid. He's implementing this insane living room design where he makes a wall of gold chains and the focal point is this monstrous purple velvet ottoman with a blown glass teal chandelier hanging over it and I suddenly cannot. I descend into this hellscape where the homeowners lives are ruined because this shit is too grandiose for the rest of their house and everything is out of proportion and their property value tanks and I'm so overwhelmed by this that I have to turn off the show and just sit there in the dark stressing about the madness that I have just witnessed.

I'm trying to clear my head and my mom, who was there trying to clean the house and take care of me after surgery comes in with the basket of mismatched socks that I have been ignoring forever and she's going to sit on my bed and match them. I try to stop her but I can't speak so she just plops down and dumps the basket of mismatched socks on the bed. I don't know how to fix the situation so I start crying and she's concerned thinking I am having some type of surgical complication and all I can say to explain through my tears is "chaos socks". At this point I think she realizes that I am trashed and she just gets a bag and throws them all away and tells me we will just buy all new socks that match. She tucks me into bed and I fall asleep crying.

Never again."
