We Deliver!
As we approach St. Phatty’s Day, the luckiest day of the year for cannabis enthusiasts, it’s time to peel back the layers of mystique and delve into the quirky superstitions that float around the weed-smoking world like a cloud of aromatic smoke. From mango munching to passing to the left, let’s explore the superstitions that add a sprinkle of magic to our toking rituals.
1. Munching Mangoes: The High-Flying Myth
Ever heard that eating a mango before sparking up can elevate your high to cloud nine? While it sounds like a fruity fairy tale, there’s a nugget of truth buried in this myth. Mangoes contain myrcene, a terpene also found in certain cannabis strains. However, the evidence is hazy at best. So go ahead, snack on a mango, but don’t expect miracles—just a delicious pre-toke treat!
2. Pass to the Left: A Counterclockwise Conundrum
In the hazy circles of stoner culture, passing to the left is gospel. But why left, you ask? Blame it on the hippies, or perhaps the Victorian-era butlers—the reasons are as foggy as the room. However, one thing’s for sure: pass to the right at your own risk. So, take two hits max of that Ozone Lky Charmz Vape and pass counterclockwise, unless you’re feeling rebellious—then, all bets are off.
3. The Curse of the White Lighter: A Lighter Shade of Superstition
White lighters: innocent tools or harbingers of doom? Legend has it that the tragic fates of rock icons—Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin—were sealed with white lighters in hand. Snopes.com debunked this myth, but the stigma persists. So this St. Phatty’s Day, pick up a green lighter and avoid the pinch of the cannabis community.
4. Bowl Etiquette: The First Hit Dilemma
To hit or not to hit, that is the question. When packing a bowl, tradition dictates that the packer relinquishes the first hit to the next in the rotation. But is it a noble act of generosity or a puff of hypocrisy? Sometimes, the green hit isn’t the sweetest, and troubleshooting mid-sesh is nobody’s idea of a good time. So, pack your bowl and puff with pride—just mind the chokehold.
5. 420: The High Noon of Superstitions
Ah, the sacred hour of 4:20—the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Originating from school escapades in Northern California, 420 transcended its roots to become a universal symbol of cannabis camaraderie. Miss the mark, and your St. Phatty’s Day may lose its luster. Whether it’s 4:20 a.m. or p.m., light up, puff, puff again, and pass.
In the end, cannabis superstitions are as varied as the shades of green on St. Phatty’s Day. Some are rooted in history, others in whimsy, but all add a sprinkle of magic to our toking traditions on this most fortunate of days. So, as you raise your glass—or your vape—to good luck, embrace the quirks, and let the good vibes flow. After all, in the realm of cannabis, superstition is just another way to catch a little luck of the high-rish.
