In reply to the discussion: Do you remember the first time you smoked marijuana?? [View all]LiberalElite
(14,691 posts)6. I just had a joint
passed around to me at a couple of parties in the '70s. By the time it got to me there was almost nothing left. (I can't believe we actually passed around a joint from person to person - how many mouths had been on it before mine? Yikes!) Then 27th birthday - a friend who had a "source" shared some THC with me. Then we went out to eat and I had an Irish Coffee on the house as the birthday girl. I was feelin' good on the way home. The next day I retched my guts out. Nothing since then.

Mine was far more recent (2001). I'd just turned 17 and had never tried any drug except alcohol.

May be cliched, but that album is *great* paired with anything psychedelic.

The 31st of never. Drug addiction runs in my family so I avoid all... whether addictive or not.

I'm almost 50 and have never tried it mainly because I don't know a dealer here.
