Everyone stops and they're like, Like what? Yeah.
This is just normal
for
me.
Yeah.
I mean, I was going to ask about that.
Cause like, I remember, you know, having those friends when I was younger, like in high school and stuff.
And I was actually envious of the people that had the parents that were partying it up and didn't care.
And like, they blow lines with their kids.
And like, cause me, I, I like couldn't be home because I had to hide everything.
So like, Part of my issue is I was never at home.
Like, I always ask myself, and it sounds crazy now, I was like, if my parents would just let me smoke weed on the back porch...
Like, would I have ever gotten into heroin and oxys and X and all that stuff? Like, maybe I just would have sat there and smoked weed.
Yeah.
I probably would have rotted away doing that.
But, you know, like, it's funny, the perception, you know.
And it's funny you brought up weed because, like, some people are like, oh, weed's all natural.
It's not a gateway drug or anything like that.
For me, it totally was because I got the addict gene.
Like, I've tried to, like, stop everything else.
And I was like, I'll just smoke weed.
Then my tolerance built up and I was like, I need to get more messed up.
And then I start using again.
All the stuff that we've put out on, on marijuana over the years, it tends to do pretty well because people come out of the woodwork and like support it.
And, you know, all the pro pot people and now Kratom is the new, you know, everybody's coming out of the woodwork there and, Saying, oh, you guys don't know what you're talking about and yada, da, da, da.
