The Iceman Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 Responding to @Birds~69about pa/nj weed from the obs thread. PAs medical program is way better than Jerseys and since they added anxiety to conditions basically anyone can get it now, you just gotta pay you 100 to the state and 150 for a doctor appointment. It's basically legal weed just pay to play lol I made sure to get my card renewed before I moved so I can still use the pa dispensarys. Jerseys program is a joke, there's only like ten dispensarys in the entire state, closest one to me is like a hour away... I really don't have high hopes for jersey even if it's legal... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hold up, if I have anxiety and a documented history with my doc I can go get a card? I heard mixed reviews on weed and anxiety. Some say its great. Others say it makes it worse.

Pretty sure they're only opening (licensing) 37 shops for the first 2 years in the whole state of NJ which isn't too much. I'm sure they'll tax the complete hell out of it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mild anxiety and when I had some in my 20s and was in public, it kicked the anxiety way up. In a controlled environment (camping, backyard, home) it mellowed me out. Some of my friends could smoke it anywhere w/no problem. It all depends.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came prepared with all my medical documents in order and the doctor I saw literally just took my word for it, didn't ask to see anything on a 5 minute telemedicine call... It was a joke personally weed works great with my anxiety but it has to be an indica. I stay away from sativa's because it makes my anxiety worse.

Best bet is definitely staying on the medical program just to save on the taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you pay...insurance pays and for how much? I was never a "pothead" just occasionally on weekends when we could get it. If I remember correctly in my late teens/early 20's (late 80's/early 90's)...there were "nickel bags" ($5)..."dime bags ($10) then 1/8oz bag($20-$25)) and 1/4oz bag ($40). What some people don't realize even if does become legal....your job will still "piss test" you and if you show up "dirty", you could still get fired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a card, there are actual protections from being fired from your job. It's basically like having any other controlled substance script. I use the medical program every week and spend roughly 100 bucks. But I also only get vape carts/concentrate/edibles because I'm all about keeping it discrete since i'm a daily user. I used to be prescribed xanax/opioids though for a variety of things so I'd much much rather be a daily pot user than on that garbage... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish insurance covered that but nah it's all out of pocket. I guess I'm just so used to paying it that it doesn't seem that bad I don't even get a ton with that 100 which is sad... It's really 2 items I get a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattinpa Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Now that was more like it by the Sixers’ bench. Want more of that. Would like to have Lowry, but I am afraid we would get weakened in other areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could smell it outside...not sure of his technique but he did it right. Now that his child is getting older he decided to knock it off for the time being but man they should hire hire at one of those growing dispensaries... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 Wheels are coming off the Flyers... Hart looks awful. Provorov looks awful. Patrick is invisible. They're getting by simply on 33 year old giroux's will but not a recipe for success. They are lucky nyr/njd/buf are a free 2 point game but this team is going nowhere if they don't figure out the power play, defense, and goaltending. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Sixers playing very well these days. What I like most about this team right now is that they're playing unselfishly and staying focused by putting teams away. I'm actually more enthused about this team than any over the last 20 years.

The game Tuesday night? That's a game they would not have won under Brett Brown. Period. This team is gelling under Doc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
