Nature Boy said: Ahhh...you kids. Smoking pot in the 1960's and 1970's was SUCH a better experience than you guys are probably having. First off - it was totally bad-ass and counter-culture back then.
Secondly, it was incredibly SOCIAL. When you can pass around a fat, fat joint of mediocre strength around a circle of six or eight people four or five times, you have ample time to talk, giggle, flirt, laugh, play music - or say "I've had enough" and land exactly where you wanted. It was an experience the likes of which you modern, young guys and gals probably know little about.
I'm tellin' ya...this article got it right. I can barely take 2 tokes of today's grade marijuana without getting couch lock and/or paranoid, and far too high to fuck. Back then, you would smoke with your favorite gal (or a near total stranger lady) get horny and go at it with lots of enjoyment and little impairment.
'Nuf said. 
N.B.
How old are you? Just curious? And also, what do you think was the potency range back then? Was it potency? or the CBD that made the high so nice?

This article is sad. It ain't the 60's anymore, if your a lightweight then do what I do and take a single rip. Then put it away. If you must smoke something for the next hour then get some herbal cigarettes or something. Besides I suspect much of this is BS, they still had good product in the form of hash. It ain't like that has changed all that much.
Lucky for me weed started to get good round these parts in the late 90's. I got to enjoy great product for most of my heavy weed smoking years.

I'm with you all the way there brother. I only smoke Thai weed which is a pure sativa - modern skunk is simply too much of a headfuck to be able to go about your normal activities after indulging.
I honestly don't understand the 'lets get as high as possible' type weed. Maybe when I was 16...

My only point is that I would rather smoke less of a higher quality weed to get high without having to ingest as much. Not to mention to me it tastes better. Mids always did give me headaches too. To each their own though.

yeah the point about not wanting to fuck up your throat/lungs by smoking a ton might have been the only good point made. forgot about that one, thanks.
the headache comments are curious to me. So many variables.

Probably. But really I don't give a fuck. This type of conversation has little interest for me anyway. I personally find it funny to picture some old man bitter about the fact weed ain't sticks n stems no more

I only smoke the best shit and me and my friends are plenty social still. GTFO with your garbage weed sounds like a headache and a waste.

But what bothers me is they keep saying "mids" and then describing nasty shit with tons of seeds and stems like WTF. That's not mids, that's some bullshit. And then they keep talking about "shake".
Seriously I understand looking for lower THC content, but who wants to smoke nasty shake and bullshit with seeds and stems? There are tasty buds at a good price with 10-15% THC that aren't hella nasty but will give you a mellow high.
Personally I like the stuff with equal parts CBD and THC. Very hard to find, it's usually just one or the other, but having equal parts is extremely pleasant and you can still actually get high unlike the super high CBD.

And I actually asked my parents about this years ago when I was a teenager (they both grew up in California, various parts, my mom grew up in Eureka) and my dad swears that the good shit was almost as good back then. He says chronic weed totally existed, but that there was also a ton more bad weed out there. But he swears the idea that weed has somehow gotten 40x stronger is bullshit. Plus edibles still existed, so people were definitely able to take in more THC than is reasonably pleasant if they wanted to.
He's in his late 60s now.

Don't underestimate tolerance. Me and the boyz used to smoke killer cronic in massive quantities and still function, go to the bar, hook up, etc. You might be a hot mess for a few weeks but if you wanted to smoke all night you would be able to in a short while.
Tolerance to a fairly benign drug can be built fast and without negative drawbacks if one so desires.

Theres over 140 known cannabinoids in weed and each has its own unique effects. There is a big difference in selectively bred cannabis and natures own highly variable cannabis as only the THC (1 of over 140 cannabinoids) has been selectively bred. Recently more and more places have bred in CBD and its relatives as they realised its medicinal properties. So many people jumped the gun here and dismissed this guy with insults but really they have no idea what they're talking about. Just saying you should smoke high THC strains or call that person a name isn't funny - its ignorance.

You can have high quality weed that has different cannabanoids in it.

its the internet. Number one goal: assert my own correctness and the idiocy of others with opposing views
Goal 2: learn anything
mutually exclusive goals as luck would have it
