haha, " back in the day... brick". most of you are so young, heh heh. i started smoking mid 80's, and we all wondered what was up with that brick shit when it came around. but yeh, i think the old weed was " better" by that i mean thc was low enough that it was great to pass around a couple joints in a small group or even to only smoke now and again at partys or if u felt like it you and buddy spend the day burning a 1/2 oz just because. but the shit nowadays?? nah, too much for me. i get way to introverted, stupid ( not in a funny way ) thoughts, and barely even get the munchies! then again, getting falling down drunk isnt as much fun either... maybe im just old now, haha!

These days weed is only enjoyable if you use it frequently.
What you want is the dopamine hit, yes? But with today's weed, there's so much cannabinoid content that the side effects you mentioned- racing heart, racing thoughts, anxiety and paranoia, dry mouth, nasal congestion, intense hunger that is impossible to satisfy- are often so intense as to outweigh the euphoria produced by the dopamine hit.
But when you use frequently your experience of the side effects seems to diminish much more rapidly than than your experience of the euphoria from dopamine hit.

I miss pot! It's been over 2 years since I smoked. I smoked some spice on paper while in jail, but it's just not the same. I can't wait until I'm off parole. I intend to have a fat sack and a pack of wraps for when it's official.
I do miss the the old bricks, at least when it was decent. I had quite a collection of nice looking beans at one point. I used to have fun cleaning up a half a lid at a time.

Haha lids, beans, that is the true old school stuff - Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers era.
I wish that kind of stuff was still around today, it seems MUCH more enjoyable. Like some of the posters above saying, that stuff you could just smoke a bunch and not be totally incapacitated. I'm sure the THC of that bud was 5% or less, but gave a nice smooth buzz, instead of just sending you into instant full on psychosis from one tiny hit.
I tried CBD nugs because I read they were sometimes similar to what pot was in the 60's/70's maybe even 80's but no matter what I tried, it was super harsh on the lungs.
It's interesting looking back in time on weed. I remember seeing a High Times from the 70's or maybe early 80's and the crowning nugs of the year that were highlighted in it looked almost like seaweed or random lawn clippings, very 'natural'.

The corner? Like, of the block?
Clearly weed shops should offer low-THC weed. There is definitely a market for it. Not as big ad the market for the strong dope, obviously, but i know quite a few people who would dabble more if taking 3 hits of pot didn't render them completely useless for 9 hours

Started in 77, I'm not a heavy smoker. I still love it and use it to enhance movies, road trips etc...I think the trick is taking breaks for weeks at a time or even years. I don't get the paranoid feelings anymore. That was when I was younger. I can regulate my weed intake though and will go a week or two without smoking, and when I do I only smoke a few hits at a time. When the medicine works I stop smoking until later or another day. An eighth can last me a month or 2. Fuck all those dabs and concentrates. I use distillate carts to travel with only. They (1/5-1g cart) can last months for me.

Haha I love the Freak Bros. My buddy (an old hippie drummer) turned me onto FFB comics as well as R. Crumb.
The pot was nice, as long as you got some that was still somewhat fresh. I always like the term "roach weed" because it's the bud that got smoked most in joints. It was pretty mellow, but if you had to, you could still function. I used to roll up a few fat ones and go burn cruising for a few hours.
I do like the high-test bud, too. I just have to ease into it or else have a 6-pack handy, because it will give me a good anxiety jolt, right out of the gate. I usually just smoke with a one-hitter, anyway to conserve and because I don't need much to get off.

There’s no shortage of low grade weed at the dispensaries. Just buy the cheapest crap they have.
Once you get used to the taste of really good weed though it’s tough to go back to mids
In high school we used to go to this really bad part of town and meet these gangster kids to buy $20-40 worth of brick weed and yes sometimes I got the corner of the brick
I don’t miss those days at all. That shit was garbage, tasted like shit, made you cough up a lung and barely got you high
I’ll take the strong stuff any day. Learn how to smoke the right amount and it’s very enjoyable.

Sort of. I like being high but I hate actually smoking. Like the act of holding a pipe to my mouth and lighting it with the other hand has just gotten sort of tiring over the years. I'm just sort of getting sick of smoking. It's different now that the prices are so high at dispensaries that I don't even have the luxury of picking and choosing fucking strains. I go to my black market connect and I get $100 Oz. He gives me a sativa and indica and I'm good to go. Sort of reminds me of being in high school in the year 2000 when we didn't get to pick the strains, we just got whatever our dealer had. I will say though that my dealers weed is way better than the shit low potency weed at the dispensaries.
Pretty lame for being in southern California. I liked the dispensaries before legalization when I could get different strains and still pay the same amount for a full ounce. Now, all the eighths are way more expensive than just getting a full ounce so it's not even worth it to try different strains. So fucking stupid.
Yeah, you're right, smoking weed just isn't fun anymore. I love being high but smoking just doesn't have the same appeal anymore.

Try some delivery services. The prices are better
Still not $100 an oz but I got some really nice stuff for $160
I have a friend I’ll buy from for $80~125/oz but as you say what he has is what you get. And sometimes I get sick of whatever that is and I want to pay a little more for something better
Edit: ah I missed the part about splitting up your ounce. Yeah it’s lame that they won’t let you do that. It’s hard to pick the right thing you want a whole ounce of too. But sometimes you get lucky.

Delivery services in my area are even more ridiculous at $180/oZ for half decent bud.

The concentrate isn't the same anymore either. It's not as potent as the shit I used to get pre 2017 and I'm pretty sure my tolerance has not gone up that much.
