Well after a few days of acting like an ass. I've (mostly) come to my senses. I went and fooled in politics, while drinking, and;
1: got my sensitivity in check
2: realized I was better off during my 17 days on the wagon.
I owe you 3 an apology most of all. I got overly defensive, when you had nothing but good intentions.
Greatwhitenorth; just bad timing when you chimed in. Honestly no offense taken to anything you said. Thanks for help on my careless post.
Grandpapy and Curious. I understand I took everything the wrong way, and appreciate your caring enough to chime in. My only possible excuse is a mother that sees any chance to help, as a chance to criticize, and the ambiguity of typed conversations. Its on me, and how I should have taken it for the free helpful advice it was.
And I'm thinking I'm probably bipolar.
Anywho, hope y'all won't hold it against me too mich.
I enjoy sharing with y'all, and will definitely check my sensitivity.
@dstroy
Really appreciate your support. Probly wouldn't of looked back, or would've turned into a sock troll, if not for you.

Truly, Sorry to go full asshole on everybody.
So, back on the wagon, looking to beat 17 days.

My true problem with not drinking, is I smoke all day, and by the evening I get no buzz.
I know it's still helping with depression and pain, but I miss the fun. The wife gets all goofy off 1/2 a cookie, but I eat the equal of 7grams decarbed weed and only slight drowsy effect.
I've got bulged discs in my back, torn shoulders, and torn ligaments in one knee (on top of suicidal depression, that's not been an issue since regular smoking for 20 years) and weed is a definite cure. But I miss the buzz. Not sure where I was going with that. But thanks for listening

 

[GreatwhiteNorth]

No issues with me.
I've done more than my share of dumb ass stunts so - no room to criticize here.
Stand up, square your shoulders & move on my friend.

You can do it bro.

I'm the same - tried Dabbing 3 times - loved the taste I am told I said just before hitting the sack.
I'm such a puss.

That lunchmeat stripper story was awesome! I've literally only been to one(shitty) strip club in my life. But the scene playing in my head is Oscar worthy. (Too many movies?)
My nephew got inducted in navy 2 weeks ago. Going to basic in Chicago in August, then I think to "AIT?" in MS after. Any tips I can pass along?
I'm kinda proud. Totally directionless delinquent teen 2 years ago(i know from experience). Told him there would always be stuff made of metal and that always needs welding, and with oil rigs and such, underwater welders are pretty much set. 1 year later, sophmore in hs, he's talking joining Navy and taking community college welding classes.
Of course I'm screwed if they get underwater robot welders before his term.

That's the other thing. Never did concentrates until I grew now. Got a big glob of fingerhash from trimming, got a Pax3 with concentrate lid. As far as I can tell, I get higher off of running a bowl of green thru a wire mesh strainer and straight vape, vs vaping fingerhash in lid. Hash and green together mixed results. Maybe all in my head/placebo?

Navy boot camp was (is.) easy. Do some pt, eat, learn how to fold your shit, learn some history, shoot at paper, swim for idk like three minutes, learn how to fight the ship.

Show up on time (early!), clean, sober, in uniform regs (lookin good!) and not dying of boredom are the most important everyday things.

Other than that, don’t break anything (equipment or yourself), use good judgement, don’t dishonor yourself or your country. Remember that while your job is shitty, you represent everyone so don’t be an idiot.

 

[GreatwhiteNorth]

Finger/scissor hash always really does it for me.
I'm wondering if it's just the "new strain" high - IDK, but it's very enjoyable as long as I don't go nutz with it.

 

[GreatwhiteNorth]

I always had alotta fun in the Buttercup trainers in Pearl - I took it seriously & had a great time.
CBR on the other hand were not so much - I absolutely hated the CS Gas chamber.

After watching this vid I realized that these guys not nearly getting the dose they gave us in Pearl.
When you came outta the concrete chamber everybody had big ass (Mastiff looking) strings of snot hanging out of their noses & you were blinded because your eyes were watering like a full on faucet.
If you touched your face it made it 10X worse.

That stuff (Gas) is (Grandchild speak) Super Duper Nasty

Good to see you back and don't worry about it I understand and that was kind of you to say this. BTW if you think you might be bipolar get some testing done. Sometimes people drink to self-medicate for other problems and if you can find a more appropriate medication it can help out there.

I'm glad to hear you are going to give it another go. Remember don't be to hard on yourself if you fall off, just get right back on it and start again.

Thanks for sharing, I was disappointed and afraid when I realized I wasn't bipolar.

Damn you sound like me, I have pins in my shoulders, one fake knee, the other needs to be replaced and a trashed back (but i'm getting better looking!)
I found removing wheat (all forms lol) for 48 hours diminishes the pain in my joints by 50%.

Shhh the booters need some surprises. I snotted all down my pt sweater hahahaha. I remember thinking why is there this giant trough sink outside the gas room? lol


At least we didn’t get OC sprayed (“qualified”) in boot camp, that came after I got to my first ship. Never again. I had to get level one qual (spray directly on face and obstacle course and hostile in the red suit) like three times. Level two twice, and then when I didn’t have to do any security shit anymore they changed the fuckin rules to where you only needed level one once.









Boogers, boogers everywhere.

yeah it works pretty good (in my limited experience of witnessing about 1000 or so qualifications) on most people, some people it just pisses off more though so be ready for that.

My nephew got inducted in navy 2 weeks ago. Going to basic in Chicago in August, then I think to "AIT?" in MS after. Any tips I can pass along?
I'm kinda proud. Totally directionless delinquent teen 2 years ago(i know from experience). Told him there would always be stuff made of metal and that always needs welding, and with oil rigs and such, underwater welders are pretty much set. 1 year later, sophmore in hs, he's talking joining Navy and taking community college welding classes.
Of course I'm screwed if they get underwater robot welders before his term.

Seabees is where he may find welding work in the navy. They also have divers who do bridge work and such. I hated my time in the navy, but my wife loved it and became a lifer..

Gas is bad but I'm not sure it was worse then the pepper spray dose they hit me with.

I'm laying carpet in an navy ROTC center if you want me to ask any questions, just let me know.
