It often worked for me when i was a pothead, but some dealers werent having that shit
Here a half quarter would have pretty much always been a worse price per gram than a quarter, but better than single grams if the dealer sold those. Although I guess if you split on a quarter with a friend you'd get a half quarter for half the price of a quarter.

I wonder if anyone who no longer enjoys weed, or doesn't enjoy it as much as they once did, has reasons for feeling so beyond anxiety and paranoia. To me those are side effects that have always been present with heavy usage, especially coming back after a tolerance break, but the main gripe seems to fall around those side effects. Honestly I still enjoy weed a lot, I've been a regular smoker since I was a teenager and while I just recently stopped smoking daily, I enjoy it just as much when i can. Unfortunately i can't smoke now, but I will enjoy it when I can again.

I don't know what kind of dealers you guys had back in the day but when I was getting half eighths they only gave me 1.5g. But it was still a way better deal than just a gram. And what the fuck is a half quarter? That's the same thing as an eighth. Where I grew up in San Diego county, there was no difference of price between an eighth and a quarter unless you were friends with a really good dealer that gave you a deal for $80 or $90. but yeah back in the day a quarter was $100 standard at least for southern California area.
For me, buying weed is not as exciting as it used to be because I don't have access to all those millions of strains that I used to have access to prior to California legalization of 2017 and the budtenders have no excitement anymore. The dispensaries are all a bunch of corporate shills now. It's like the same thing as going to a corporate grocery store like Vons or Ralphs or anything like that. And I hate going to the grocery stores. I just feel like the whole experience in buying weed And getting weed has gone down the toilet. The budtenders used to be really helpful before 2017 but now they don't know shit about strains (recommending a sativa when I specifically ask for a fucking indica), and they all act like they have a million better things to do than help you. Fuck that mentality.
I picked up 2 ounces from my dealer today for $200. We were talking about how shitty the weed quality has gotten at the dispensaries.

My state is not even legal yet. I love Marijuana but I keep having such a hard time finding it! I don’t know why but my state is fighting as hard as it can to be one of the last USA states to legalize Marijuana and it really frustrates me. I wish it was legalized here so badly. People in other states are not better than me so it makes absolutely no sense why it would be legal in their state but not in mine. It’s just unfair and I don’t understand it.

Could be a tolerance thing since you don't smoke very often anymore that on top of weed being much stronger these days your getting 100x magnified effects. I suggest smoking fat blunts to get your body used to the effects again.

For me it was the opposite, weed is mostly sativa here so I'd have to smoke veeery little to enjoy it or I'd be feeling paranoid about being caught, and my mind would be racing. Now that I think back on it, I'm not sure why I thought it was worth it, but now that I can access well grown stuff it relaxes me more, is more enjoyable and lasts me forever.
It's probably also that my anxiety has diminished recently, as well as being able to get a hold of super consistent edibles. I've always loved edibles since they always feel more relaxing to me if I dose them right, but the problem was dosing them right. Was rarely able to do that right.

Shivs has a point here. I mean, there's medical use and you can go anywhere and get a card for $100 bucks, but you can't have a medical card and own a firearm at the same time. I recently had to have a debate with myself on if I want a firearm or medical marijuana more. I went with the legal firearm. If they catch you with an ounce of weed, it's a $100 fine, but if they catch you with some street gun, that's a much bigger problem to fix.

This is no longer true in most places. You can own guns and have a "recommendation" from a doctor to use cannabis. In fact my doctor specifically mentioned how the rec would not in any way mess with a concealed carry permit. The local police confirmed this. Just like any other medication. In most places you can carry both on your person.
The federal background check asks if you are "an unlawful user of". If you are a lawful user then nobody can violate your constitutional right to bear arms.

As I understand, Federal law goes here and marijuana is still illegal on a Federal level. So even though you’re legal in your state with a medical card, it’s still a Schedule 1 drug federally. Maybe this will change now with the MORE Act.

Think tolerance and stress levels definitely play a big part as others have said. Been smoking about 7 years. Gotta agree paranoia and endless munchies suck when your tolerance is low. Plus I am sub par even when my tolerance is "normal". I had to quit smoking due to an issue with my lungs so I couldn't smoke if I wanted to. Last I had was some hash pressed rosin.
I hate that weed has been commodified so greatly because a lot of love has been lost. I like it being legal but there's so much GMO crap going around, not to mention the prices... Shits a scam. I've also noticed a lot of stoners use it as an escape from life. Like their sphere of consciousness is so small its not funny.

$20 a gram was the standard for chronic. Then it was $50 for an eighth, and $100 for a quarter. $150 for a half and $300 for a full oz.

This is more or less how I recall it! 2008-2010ish; what a weird period, lmao.

I loved going to dispensaries in 2016. I always tried new strains every week. One of my favorites which you will probably never ever fucking find was Russian glue and Redbull. Paris og was the best indica I've ever smoked in my entire life and it's rare as fuck. You could look at, touch, and smell anything you wanted. The budtenders were a lot more helpful and a lot more patient. It wasn't all corporatized and it sort of had one of those dirty small porn shop type of vibes to it that I totally digged. Like it sort of made me feel like I was going someplace dirty and some place I shouldn't be going to but I fucking loved it. I remember having to ring the doorbell and then get let in. Nowadays the dispensaries are like fucking mall boutiques. The vibe is completely different. Some of the security guards and cops were really cool too. The security guards they have now are a bunch of squares.

Yea.. not being able to even see what you're getting cuz it's all prepackaged is kinda a bummer.. But, having been a budtender, I bet it's nice to not have every single person all day ask for an extra point every time you're weighing out 
I like the legal shop near me. 30% tax (sales+state+local) is insane, but $20 eighths are awesome.
