As soon as I saw the pic that song started playing in my head. Came to the comments hoping to see if anyone else thought of the same thing. Wasn't disappointed. gif

It can have it. 95 weed was terrible.

I grew up in Europe. Hardly seen any weed until I visited Amsterdam in the late 2000s. Back home in 1995 we had hashish, more often than not, it was like smoking an old truck tyres.

Super expensive and you just got whatever your drug buddy had. Like double the price of now in 95’ dollars.

kawkz440 OP t1_j9wr6eq wrote

Right, there was no popping over to the dispo and chatting with your budtender about the five thousand products on display, you had to page your dealer and buy what he had, or rely on the kindness of your friends.

So much time spent sorting Mexican brick weed….

I'd love to say I miss the catharsis of sorting seeds and stems, but I don't.

I miss eating the seeds. I always enjoyed them, but not enough to wish them to return to the sweet nugs available now!

Wait, you can eat the seeds?

You can eat all of it if you wanted to, but yes you can eat the seeds.

Sticks and stones may hurt my bones, but they will never get me high. I was lucky as fuck to grow up in Seattle before med/legal so we always had legit shit for a competitive price. Even for a fallback we had various grades of commercial Canadian hay or Outdoor keef-rolled NorCal.

SandMan3914 t1_j9wtaem wrote

Sorry to hear that. Was fortunately a rare occurrence for us as our source was great

Still could get Sativa too, prior to Indica exploding (shorter crop cycles = more harvests). There was a good 10 year period where you could only get Sativa around Oct (mostly grown outdoors)

One of the nice thinks about legalization in Canada is Sativa is back on the menu

JJuanJalapeno t1_j9xl1e6 wrote

In the late 1990s weed became legal in Switzerland for a couple of years. I remember having the luxury to choose between Indoor and Outdoor. Only some 15 years later when I lived in the US I became sophisticated enough to learn about indica and sativa. Wow what a journey.

That stuff was disgusting. Nowadays you can walk into a shop and have a selection of the best weed.

I remember paying 280-300 an ounce every month under prohibition. Moved to Colorado 5 years ago and now I spend 160-180 a month on dabs. Better high, better on my lungs, easier on my wallet. I do not miss the good ol days.. But I kinda miss k-town weed(midrange brick weed sativa grown in Kansas city. Was great for rolling joints)

Snow, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, "Informer" was a banger of a track when you dropped it.

kawkz440 OP t1_j9w1z44 wrote

Agreed. Snow was legit, and "Lonley Monday Morning" is the real banger.

Heading to the underground hip hop/jazz club, ready to go spit some verses then bang out some sick 🎷 and spoken word, right after we go win the Stanley Cup, eh? I’m diggin the whole look. I also get very curious when I see these old pictures, and I start to wonder who some random people turned out to be almost 30 years later. I’m a bit younger than you, but this is exactly how I remember the ‘90s. Thanks for the throwback.

Edit to add: my grandparents had that same couch/chair, set nearby a brick fireplace.

kawkz440 OP t1_j9wd3v5 wrote

Pretty close. It would have been an open mic/mc battle at a coffee shop and junior hockey.

TheNighthawk19 t1_j9wey6k wrote

Fuckin eh. I never played, but I pretty much grew up in a small town arena and on the road with my cousins teams. We were a big hockey family.

kawkz440 OP t1_j9wfwn0 wrote

Oh no, I meant watching. We had a minor league team in town. I was only ever drop-in level, at best.

Not really. Still pretty patchy. I loved my Kaw, even though it was slow. But yeah, it would fire right up every year. My garage burned down and that was the last time it fired up.

It was slow, but rock solid and I could rip around on the twisties. Compared to the shitty cars I was driving, it seemed pretty fast until I got an old 750. Sorry about your garage!
