So my buddy just bought pot off Craigslist...
 
...he posted an ad saying he was looking for some 420. Five minutes later, someone contacted him. 45 minutes and one shady Dunkin' Donuts parking lot deal later, he had a bag of "the best stuff [he's] seen in years" for $40.

This boggles my mind.

For a thread hijack, I have a question.

I don't understand the use of brackets in quotes. Here you put the [he's] in brackets and I don't understand why. Did you change the quote from "I" to "he" or what? Was it not included and you added it?

Sorry, I'm no good with grammar and such.

It's mildly dumb, but nothing crazy.

What is there *really* to be worried about? Getting robbed of $40? The police monitoring craigslist and doing a sting operation?

I guess it's kinda dumb, but it's just your standard opening threads just to complain or be negative about that is really dumb.

I think this is basically it. Also, if it is something like a magazine or newspaper, I think the brackets might indicate something from the editor.

I was directly quoting him, but obviously he said "I've" instead of "he's". In order to make a quote flow properly in context, you can use brackets to change words that don't change the meaning of the quote. Another example would be if he said "It is the best stuff I've ever seen!" I could write it as "[This bud] is the best stuff [he's] ever seen!"

Get it?

Who changes your "novice" / "carpal tunnel" status? Mine is "old hand" - how stupid is that?

I like yours Slow Play Jerry Garcia. I want mine to be "Legalize It."



As for buying pot from the internet I ask why not? Thats where we gamble, get our porn, so why not get drugs there also.....? Hey PM me if you got a 50 sack in houston [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

There are the normal ones based on # of posts, and then the special ones that moderators set. I don't actually know who changed mine though. There was a thread a while back "If you could have any title what would it be" and I said Smot Poker for it's dual meaning. The next morning, it was changed. So thanks to whoever it was!

What is 420? I'm assuming a grade that indeed would get a fly high.

And a "bag" is too vague. Was it a sammich bag, duffle bag, or flea bag?

This is important breaking news and we need better details dammit.

He spent $40. An individual of average intelligence should be able to deduce that he bought a sandwich bag (1/8 of an ounce) worth of pot.

Any fool knows a sandwich bag holds more than 1/8 ounce.

I don't think that would be legal. Sounds like entrapment to me. It would be legal for the cops to do what slowplay's friend did.

I'm all out myself - this sounds vaguely appealing -

Just one more reminder that until it's legal, we're all criminals.

When police do this, they're usually the buyer. Also, $40 isn't a crazy amount for them to buy.

This is correct.

Also, 420 is code for pot/smoking pot. It's based on some belief that the police code for marijuana possession or something in CA is 420. I don't know the validity of this, but I do know the term is used almost universally now. It started as 4:20 being the designated smoking time for everyone to smoke, but now it is used as a noun meaning pot, a verb meaning to smoke pot, and who knows what else. I have a bumper sticker (not on my car though, lol) that says "It's 4:19...got a minute?" - cracks me up every time.
