Myth Schmyth...Truth is we don't know...

What do you mean I didn't say why? Are you high? Cactus, spikes, defensive venom of stupidity... Just as you couldn't figure out the obvious from my posts, pests can't find their way back to the plant next time after they've enjoyed it the first. That is those that did enjoy it. Most critters don't like it only a few do. But mainly it's so they can't go back and bring all their friends because they forgot where it was by the time they got back hopefully or got so high they just kept missing their exit on the freeway trying to get back to the plant.


It's not like the plant thought this all out though that was just a figure of speech, it just worked out that way. A number of cactus with spikes lived, while all the original ones without any were all eaten. Eventually they developed lots of spikes and the world was good for them. Eventually then WE were very good to mj too which just worked out incredibly nicely for both of us but the plant has probably been around much longer than us. But I say probably because that is the only thing uncertain.


That is unless you think god (lower case on purpose) did it.

For example:

My chihuahua got a tiny nug once and ate it all on his own. I found him catatonic and had to drive him around in the car for several hours to keep the GF from finding out. On our way back I must have passed the exit to the house each way at least twice I got so baked waiting for the dog to sober up. I wouldn't have expected that to take so damn long. He won't even look at a nug now.

I'm getting frustrated today with people, and I don't do opiates for my chronic pain problems so I always have a short fuse.

you're right. Sorry.

I don't see how it affected the dog, it's fat soluble not water soluble. You would have had to cook it into some fatty dog food to affect the dog. Are you sure you weren't shotgunning hits at the dog instead?

No problem. The dog/nug story does show one of the reasons thc is useful to the plant. It doesn't rule out other reasons that thc might also be useful. one use for something does not preclude it being useful in another way.

This either/or choice is a false supposition.

The idea that it must have more that one purpose without any thought even as to what that purpose could be isn't worse?

You said encourage pollen adherance. :)

Then you eat four bowls worth and don't smoke anything. Ever hear of brownies? And no, you don't even have to cook them or anything just chew and swallow raw bud mixed in.

Marijuana developed THC as a way of surviving.
Like what other plant would you basically throw away your life trying to grow?
It's the smartest plant on the earth, developed for humans, you eat it, it gives you a high and you shit out the seeds, progressing the life of the plant.

To make brownies you have to mix the weed with butter to release the thc because it is fat soluble. You can't just eat weed and get high, it doesn't work that way. :wall:

Are you over 18? You have to be over 18 to be on this site you know..

You don't belong in debates because you live on faith without questioning or rationality.

That is not true. Try it. You will see. You are mistaking several facts that have nothing at all to do with eachother. And you're just acting childish there with that one.

I'm over 40...

Ok here goes. If the carboxyl group is removed the thc becomes active. It IS active but you won't get very high if you eat it without it being mixed with fats or an emulsifier like lecithin because the absorption will happen over a long time.

For the Carboxyl group to be removed means that the weed needs to be heated OR completely dried out (not good for flavor or smoking).

In practical terms you need to use a fat or emulsifier to get the desired effect.

OR you can just continue to argue:dunce:

I wish they a brownie Emoticon ;-)

Or you could shut up and eat one raw like I fucking said. Do you think the plants carry butter to coat themselves with in the wild so that it works? Maybe they have little easy bake ovens too.
