Apparently guys like Eddie who don't understand being stoned.

This 👍🏼

I never started using it until my 70s. All those wasted years...

If you have to ask then better you stay in Soi 3.

That's hilarious Globs. A master of puns. Your humor is next level mate.

By far the best noise canceling earplugs are good old Mack's from the states. They've been making them for over 50 years. They look like regular foam earplugs, but they can filter noise by 33 dB, which is the most noise filtering you can get from a pair of earplugs, plus they are soft and lightweight, so you hardly feel them in your ears. Airplane engine and airplane air conditioning noise combined is normally around 70 dB. So these earplugs cut the sound down by about 50%. I recently got some on Lazada. 5 pairs for 130 Baht.

Globs you can't hook a woman by surfing Pornhub all day. But you don't have any other options so you gots to live with it.

Yes, I live in Bedwetter Villa condo in Pattaya. Great place. Smells a bit like urine sometimes, but one gets used to it. It's true though, I am on here 24 hours a day. 30 hours a day in fact. It's sad, I tried going to bars and gyms, but it's not my thing. I much prefer mopping floors and trolling the Manila underground late at night when I have free time. What about you girlfriend?

This has to be one of the most ridiculous troll topics I’ve come across on AN. A group of middle-aged geezers in Thailand debating the pros and cons of using condoms? If anyone here still isn’t clear on this subject, it might be time for you to pull the plug and check out now.

Beyond CP, I don’t believe any of Thailand’s major Chinese-Thai business families, those controlling the country’s largest industries such as alcohol, life insurance, tourism, hotels, shopping malls, residential real estate, duty-free, concrete, steel, etc are interested in the cannabis business. These families are typically conservative and likely opposed to cannabis altogether. As for the powerful figures in uniform, those interested and involved with the cannabis trade are likely the same ones already tied to Thailand’s broader illicit drug industry. Many of them are likely dealing in large-scale cannabis operations and are mainly "exporting". However, I doubt they have any interest in entering the local retail cannabis market. With prices dropping to ฿20–฿30 per gram, there’s little profit left in retail. The domestic cannabis market has become a highly competitive, fragmented business where each player is only carving out a small slice of the pie. Given this, I see no reason why the dynamics of the industry should change. It will likely continue as it is, as any changes to the current laws wouldn’t benefit anyone. Moreover, there’s little appetite to revert to policies that would once again fill jails with cannabis-related offenders. The only group truly missing out is the government, which had hoped to eventually benefit from taxation and regulation. However, it’s too late for them to insert themselves into the equation now. As I mentioned earlier, the window of opportunity for the government to get in on the game has closed.

Nothing like a good fluff-off mid flight in the lav.

I doubt big players like CP, Central, and the other biggest successful business families really want in on this business. For one, they are making lots of money already from their core businesses and they don't need it. Also, it's not their thing. Many of them also have large business investments in China and some of the other countries in the region. China, Singapore and Japan all have strict laws against cannabis use as well. I don't think it would look good for any of them politically for their business relationships to get involved in what might be viewed as increasing "the illegal regional drug trade" in Asia.

Personally, I don’t think anything will change materially at all at this point. As you mentioned, the distribution channels and connections between growers, vendors, and buyers are already well-established. It’s too late to regulate and try and tax it now. I also don’t think many people really care anymore. Those who once opposed it seem to have grown accustomed to the status quo. What we’ll likely see are a few ambiguous laws added to the books for appearances’ sake, but with little to no enforcement, meaning things will essentially remain the same.

How much you offering?

Come by my place bob. I'll nut in your face and then you can give me the answer.

It’s true. Taxes and regulations can make legal stuff more expensive. But it’s hard to predict how that would play out in Thailand. Especially if there no longer is any legal recreational stuff at all.

Oh sh*t, that was you?

Jabra elite active, the first 15 original Cafe Del Mar albums, and chill.

Normally tempus fugit when I'm high. So 6 hours should feel like 3. I never get paranoia attacks and I don't have a fear of flying. I just don't enjoy flying and find it so boring. Combine that with some dweeb coughing, complaining the whole time, or a crying baby and it just adds to the nuisance. So I think I'll drop an edible before I get on the plane, close my eyes and just chill.

The stronger the better. High octane!

But there are also times where you can fly below the radar because you're Asian and you don't stand out as a foreigner, as long as you don't speak with them. So you probably can get some comfort there at least. But you won't usually get treated with kid gloves the way a westerner might, even with perfect spoken American English.

It would probably go the other way. It would all go underground and become more expensive again. Black market is always more expensive than free market.

Thanks. Question wasn't how to get the THC into the body, but more about what it's like to be really blottered once you are on the plane with all those people at 36,000 feet.

I don't see how the two are connected. Lower prices normally occur either from oversupply, too much competition, or not enough demand. It's possibly a combination of those 3 at this point.

Being sober was the problem. But you know that because your never been sober nor have you ever been a judge. Half baked is never good either. Fully baked is the only way to fly.
