how old?

20

what happened?

nothing ... or at least that is what i thought at the time but the next morning i realised i had been stoned for the first time and thinking back over the evening i worked what being stoned was all about

i remember looking for a long time at a candle on the mantelpiece, and i thought i am not stoned because that candle is just burning and not doing anything so i can't be stoned

then i went to a college dance and sat on a table at the side and watched the band for hours and enjoyed the flashing lights and the movement of the dancers but thought no i'm not stoned because the band is just playing and the lights are just flashing so i can't be stoned

but in fact i was well stoned

as a footnote we smoked out of a cocktail shaker filled with ice and the top covered by aluminium foil with a "bowl" made on one side of the shaker and an opening on the other

the smoke was cool and kind to a first-time smoker

i was 14 and it was down the woods near my parents house, during summer holiday

I had a facination with "drugs", whilst really being waaay to scared to try 'em.

We were always down the woods burning things and writing our names into the trees, and doing crappy little jumps off things. but this one time a spliff was produced by the 'older boys'. they were already into it. my first experience was pure coughing and throat hurting. any high i got would have purley been a head rush from coughing.

the rest of that summer we spent doing the same thing, i think it took me till about 16 to stop coughing (Not a cigarette smoker). didnt help that in those early days all we had was soap bar, and everyone had a facination with blow backs, botttle bongs and hand bongs.... throat ripping stuff

I was 14 when I first started, however I didn't smoke at all at this point, so I started by eating it (pot noodles & yoghurts!).

Then I left school for college, discovered boozers, beer & tabs, and my spliff career started from there. my first spliff was one caned out back of our college building one lunch. Spent the rest of the afternoon giggling hysterically at anything anyone said to me. The tutor eventually kicked me out for 'disrupting the session', however I'm sure he was actually a toker anyway and let me off...

The year 1984(age 14) was during the summer my mates and i were picking spudz to make some cash for beer for the weekend,anyway another mate called to see us(he lived in Cork City) he brought some soft black moroccan hash with him and we all decided to stop workin for a while and try this hash.
Well after a few drags(3 tokes is a drag) one of my mates and i agreed that nothing was happening and as the lazy bug had hit us we decided to feck off home for the rest of the day so off we went.
About a half an hour later we were sitting at the side of his house just chatting about nothing stilll feeling as nothing had happened when a younger bloke who used to follow us bigger lads around(there was always one) came around the corner(now it hit us) he had big pointy ears but this time he looked like mister Spok outta star treck well i looked at my mate and he looked at me and we burst out laughing and laughed for about an hour(or so it seemed) in betwen getting sick and holding our sides.
The best buzz ever and has never been matched since

I was 15. It was my older brother's ex-wife (they were still married at this point). She had a joint. We smoked it. I had "tried" cigarettes, but I didn't smoke them. I used them to learn how to inhale.....

We smoke the joint. I am sitting on her couch looking over the back of it at a bookshelf. I remember being completely confused at all the books there. I could only see the titles on the book spines. I saw a book called "NWORC NORI" wtf..... she had NO idea what I was talking about. Pulled the book out and the title was actually "IRON CROWN." I remember LOTS of laughter...

As an adult, I think back on this and wonder if I was really stoned or just bullshitting....I've told the story so much at this point, it seems real....

But I remember smoking and actually LIKING the taste (unlike cigarettes)

I was 17 and being the muscleheaded gym rat I am i always vowed not to smoke pot. my workout buddy always swore by it and told me how it makes everything better. So i decided to give it a try. one night after a workout my buddy and I went over to his cuzis appartment after picking up some really good weed(cripp).

I was a little nervous and my buddy asured me that in 10 mins i would be fine he rollrd a blunt with a jamacian rum flavored wrap and we light that puppy up.

we smoked it for 15 or 20 mins they got stoned fast and were playing COD4 and i kept saying i dont feel anything so my buddy being the friend that he is gave me his fat sack of weed and glass piece and said "Smoke till you feel it". about 4 hits latter I was Stoned off my ass!!!

I was enthralled by his ligher it had an LED flashing neon light that I must have looked at for 10 mins.

then I remember his cuzin got up and ate a piece of fruit next to his sink a red apple. but I laughed till tears came to my eyes because I thought he had picked up a sponge and ate it.

that night I will always remember.

was 16 and in whistler,bc canada summer of 2001. my friend went on a summer holiday with us there for a week. one night we were walking around the village and decided we would try to find and buy some pot. so we started asking random older dudes comming out of bars and clubs. had no luck after awhile so i finally gave up and went back to the place we were staying. my friend was determined though and stayed out looking. finally while up in the hotel i got a call from him on my cell phone or a buzz from the front door to come down. down i went to meet him. sure enough he had finally scored some weed. was nasty looking stuff he bought from some french canadians. we smoked it out of a pop can in the stairwell of the underground car garage. i didn't get stoned but got the hardcore munchies. we both ate cookie dough and chips that night and watched tv haha.

I was 15 it was 1968, the days of Hippies and the Viet Nam War. Smoked one in my buddy's basement then hitch hiked to my girlfriends house. We were "freaking out" from the headlights coming at us whilst giggling like little girls.

How old are you Bankhog? COD 4 came out like last year?

Anyway my first time smoking was in 7th grade I was 13 and my friends brought me to the park and we went in the woods and they pulled out a little doobie and we smoked it, I didnt get high so I dont consider that the real first time though. My real first time was a couple of months later, we had my friends older sister who was in Highschool get us some weed and we made a pipe out of a soda can by pushing in the top and gouging tiny holes, we smoked out of it and then camped out in a huge tent in his backyard, all I remember is talking and saying random shit and then passing out completely, barely even remember the night!

My first time was when I was 19, Freshman year in College.
My good friend from Ithaca NY, (if you know where it is, you'll understand why she was my first hook-up hehe) brought some super dank outside of the quad where we lived... There was a small island built around the campus to make it all nature like, plus it was a great place for us tokers to hang out .

So we spark the bowl and I take a few hits, after instruction of course... after we finish the bowl I just sit there for a few minutes.... looking at the lights.... and all of a sudden I was in central park (in my head of course).... listening to a massive concert.... dancing around the island....

so we stumble back to my room and I start thinking I'm in the jungle.... and my wonderful roommate puts on some soundtrack with jungle noises.... now me trippin out start swinging my invisible machete at the animals.....



and i've been smokin ever since.....

peace,
hippy

I was 14 the first time i got "proper" stoned before that took tokes on soapbar and all i got was a headache!

experience didnt seem as fun as drinking at first but then i learnt to appriciate the buzz
