ugh..what is with all the moohes lately

[blastfrompast]

So I am getting so sick of people trying to mooch meds off me. I have no problem donating material to people who need it.
But I am really fucking sick of people who can afford to smoke, but figure since I am blessed with an abundance they should leave their stash at home when we meet or ask for "samples"..

Worse yet these same people promise to help when trimming time rolls around, but always fail to make it out to help.

What gives, are people just lazy now.

What are you thoughts on it....Do you eventually draw a line in the sand like I have.?

My wife was the one who opened my eyes and in some ways I wish she hadn't. It makes you look at people a bit different..

 

[fabvariousk]

I save all my shake in mooch bags and have a long chore list.
Noone ever asks me for freebies but i get alot of work done.
Sometimes when you hold the abundance and you enjoy helping people you have to create a way to be generous and not have resentment on either end.

If ur doing business with them, it comes with the territory to a degree. If they are just so called acquaintance/friends that regularly smoke and leave their stash at home, it sounds like u need to surround urself with better friends.

Is the quality of ur smoke considerably better than theirs and it makes them feel like theirs is not worthy of bringing over since urs is better? If u truly value their friendship, just tell them how u feel.

sounds reasonable to me

I know general policy is and should be to avoid "rocking the boat" and keeping the number of enemies you have to the bare minimum is ideal, but if these are indeed friends and not customers you should be able to have an adult discussion with them.

I will say my stuff is top notch, tho with a limited # of strains being my problem. So I really enjoy trying other strains and other peoples gear. T

If someone does break out something new, I ALWAYS make sure they leave with more than they came with..

I just don't get people sometimes... Would you show up at a persons house for a PARTY with no booze...expecting the host to cover your drinks...I doubt it...so why is herb considered any different.

Worse yet are those guys who ask for joints for home...shit the last guy I asked "Do I ask for a couple beers outta your 6-pack if you go to the vendor on the way home".....

On the other hand, my tollerance for BS is next to NIL now. I can only stand most people for a few hours...eventually the BS starts coming out.

Dont let yourself get played, seems like you know they are abusing. Im sure they know also, so i would be careful in letting them know. If it was me, i would cut them out slowly. You dont want them to get angry or resentful. Not answering calls, not calling them..

Im happy for you that you got a wife that sees these things and cares about you.

Good for you man

 

[blastfrompast]

LEF:

Yeah... Gradually cutting off people, excuses for getting together etc. over the last year...

Another friend of mine is having the same issues with the same types of people..so it seems pretty universal...Except with him it is more $$$ than herb as he is very well off...

And YES I AM VERY HAPPY to have met my wife....She stuck by me thru my LEO "issues", gave me my son, and since she is a non-mj type of gal....she don't smoke my stash

 

[stoned-trout]

friends indeed will try an smoke all your weed......yeehaw

 

[LEF]

I dont have a lot of friends, but the friends i do have, we help each other out and when no one has any, we deal with it. For me, its sort of a communial thing at times. Sure i smoke a lot by myself but i enjoy to swing by some buddys and smoke up, sometimes i will chill, sometimes i will be on my way. If im with people, i am passing the joint and not gonna keep it to myself. I find its a selfish thing to do. I imagine if the people are dirty, shady or anything like that, then its understandable.

I just thought about the germ thing, and its understandable about that.

I really dont have a lot of friends. People are busy. Some have to give all their time and energy to their wives. Also when you have a friend that deals weed, you cant expect him to give it away, friends is friends but business is business.

I always smoke with friends..

I always smoke with friends..

There are always people who expect a handout.

For them I keep some Larf from my summer grows.

Don't say I never gave you anything

is that the crap I was blazin' when I got home last night???

 

[KONY]

Sounds like they know or have seen to much. IME only people that know, will act like this.

 

[Lester Beans]

I always roll the doobs, load the tube, pack the bowls. My friends have to buy weed so I make sure that I smoke them all up always. Plus whenever I allow them to pack one it is usually garbage. I just give my family and friends pot so everyone can smoke the best. Greedy results in lonely. That being said I do have a ton of work that gets done free

 

[Stoner4Life]

if you've got a steady supply of weed you're gonna have mooches, one local here I nicknamed 'sad sack' because that's quality of bud he carries. anyway 'ss' stops by more often than I'd like him to to catch a buzz, nobody uses my bong except me and I don't allow joints to be toked because of long lingering smoke and the havoc it wreaks on my clothing.


so, 'ss' comes by with a pipe or borrows a big one hitter from me to mooch his buzz, and that's just fine. one day he swings by & hands me a pipe w/a triple X sized party bowl, it could hold 3gs of manicured bud. so I pack that fucker like it's a one hitter, leaving it about 85-90% empty.


shoulda seen the look on his face, he actually thought I'd top that fucker off for him, "what's up?" I asked him, "don't worry, I'll load another bump in there for you later......." I thought he was gonna cry, how could he think I'd fall for that shit trick.

 

[blastfrompast]

So I tried something new today.... I pre-rolled a joint of the worst trim I had......next time I get asked for one for the road, or to see if I wanna go for a hoot(and supply)....they are gonna get that one..

While I smoke something decent..

 

[chefbudz]

i will always smoke every one up or give a nug for the road, But WTF show up to trim when you say your going to!

 

[huligun]

This is a funny thread because it is centered around greed.

I must be fortunate because I take care of my people and they take care of me. It seems to all come out in the wash.

I had left my medicine bottle of special homemade hash in my friends smoking room last week. It was about 5 grams of good stuff (give or take). I always take care of these guys because they don't have as much as I do. But still, they always do offer to me as well, even when running low....

So anyway, I leave my primo stash there and was a tiny bit worried about it. I seen one of them and asked if I left my stash up there. He said yes and a couple days later he returned the bottle to me. Now it was not weighed or anything, but to the best of my knowledge they didn't smoke any of it. I mean they could have said no, you didn't leave it here, or smoked a bunch of it. I wouldn't have tripped, because I know they don't have much and it is hard to go without when there is a bottle of hash there. But... it was returned to me intact. It made me really feel good and these two boys have worked their way up a notch in my circle of trust.

 

[stonedwarrior]

goin through the same shit

seems like friends arent really friends anymore without something to gain from it

 

[Snype]

I give out countless amounts of trees for free. Even to strangers. Weather it's on the ski slopes or on the street, if someone seems nice and starts talking about weed, I give them a sack. Plenty of weed to go around.

 

[blastfrompast]

I have no problem giving away meds.... But when it is EXPECTED is when I start to have a problem..

For the record I get a kick out of giving strangers trees... They are always greatfull, big smiles all around... Only issue with strangers is sometimes I hate the awkwardness when I won't give them my phone# for more tho. Seems giving away meds half the time could get me a customer if I was into that.

Honestly it isn't about greed... I have plenty of meds, extract, etc. etc. and donate RSO, edibles, and trim to a few people who are sick...

It is about peoples GIMME GIMME GIMME attitude... So sick of this POOR ME shit.
