Algae Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Here in Eugene we have a few stoners. I know this may come as a revelation to many of you that may have moved here from Corn Soup, Ohio. But it is a fact that many of us live with on a daily basis. The fog in Eugene is not just from condensation. I have come upon a few clues to determine if the person I am talking with is a stoner. There are obvious signs, such as dreads and a handful of hackeysacs, but they are cliche and much too easy to discover. For the dedicated, there are other signs. Here are some possible markers: Is very obsessive about UFO sightings and sincerely believes his physician is an alien because he suggested a colonoscopy when he turned 50. (The UFO obsession is truly a 99.5% determiner) Thinks that hemp is God's Gift. Would like to see all of our grain crops plowed under and "Sow More Hemp". (never seem to mention that weed could be easily hidden in the hemp). Is absolutely fascinated with your reef tank and knows more about your metal halide lighting than you do. Loves certain parts of Ron Paul's politics. I love our Eugene stoners. But messing with them is just too much fun. Anyone else got any ways to find out if you are talking with a stoner?

CrazyInside Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 You would be surprised how many people actually smoke weed. And not just guys with dreads and hackeysacs, just every day people that you would never guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandinga Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Those are all the cliche stoners Franklin. My favorite stoners are the highly educated, highly paid people who smoke privately. These types of people tend to all the opposite of what Franklin originally described:) but in reality they are heating their vaporizers as I write this...lightly chuckling at the poor hippies who gladly set the bar for stoners.

Kimberlee Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 For all stoner, the smell of incense seems to linger around them whether it's being burned or not. Oh, and Mc Donald's is always on the list of places to go to for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am talking about the "Wake & Baker's", the "Let's get #####d up!" , the "White Trash Stoner". Making a bong out of a Keystone beer can. Coming out of a blackout snorting coke off a knife with a guy named Toad, in an alley at 3am. My proud kin......familia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be a stoner If you have an uncontrollable urge to listen to Sublime and Bob Marley... You might be a stoner If you tell people happy holidays in the middle of April...

C0lin Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 If it was legal, I'd probably smoke it..............I had a good time in high school with it, and it actually resulted in my grades improving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good drive so we partook on the drive. The college parking lot overlooked the coast and we could see the waves as we arrived. We also would normally carry our surfboards in the car. In September Santa Cruz usually has a good swell. Missed more than a few classes, but the college gave me a special award. It was called Academic Probation.....

steelhead77 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 In the 70's the most common word in the English language was "ear". As in: pfffffffft....(hitting a joint) "ear!" (handing it to your bro....) some of you may get that..... I remember walking up to the door for concerts at the Oakland Colesium and the Cow Palace with a Heineken in one hand and my bong in the other. The security at the door (including cops) would ask me "what's that" pointing to the bong. I'd say "it's a bong", they'd say; "you gotta finish the beer" then let me walk right in. Those were the days........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelhead77 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Uhhh... Then you would probably be SHOCKED if I told you my stories....I graduated high school in '77 so I grew up in the 70's when EVERYONE was a stoner. My very first concert was Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon tour in '74, and I've seen the Dead at least 30 times. That should tell you something.
