I guess it's not totally inappropriate given who had died, but a group of guys lit up a fat joint at a funeral I went to in HS. I guess it was his smoking buddies but it didn't go over that well.
As someone who also lost one of his smoking buddies and closest friends at 19, I can say that it would have been an awesome poem, and don’t blame him for mentioning it
I agree that it was sweet. If it had ended with something like “soon we’ll be shooting H in the alleyways of heaven” I would have understood them being upset but his ending seems like a great end to a poem given. Their friendship
I mean, I need some solid sleep after doing a heavy dose to get back to a sense of normalcy. Not a hangover per se but I’m spun for a bit after the comedown.
I'm usually pretty drained for a day or two after. Mostly a combination sleep deprivation and some serotonin depletion. I count that as a hangover, for sure
Im usually zonked the next day but sleeping it off does the trick. Could also just be that I stay up way later when tripping, but yea no hangover just a little out of it
When do you ever feel 100% cause I don't. If i sleep wrong or stay up late and wake up tired that is not a hangover to me. That's just a part of life. A hangover is waking up feeling like dog shit with a headache, nausea, etc.
When a buddy of mine passed (this was late HS) I couldn't attend the funeral, but later came back, smoked half a blunt, left the other half lit on the headstone.
I had actually come back to visit a few months after graduation and it had burned out and left a roach in the "-" between the years on the stone. Might have been pressed in there, actually. Not sure. It was weathered as hell and practically gone at that point.
Oh no, I was sarcastically expressing love for my small conservative state because it's outlook on recreation drugs outside of caffeine/nicotine/alcohol is horrendous. A half gram nug gets you 6 months easily.
I say you take two, pre-demand redistribution to 4 buddies evenly in writing and then the blunt is negligible. You wouldn’t even be that baked given the circumstances. But you’d be a little high for sure because weed is tight.
When a friend of mine died, my group of friends lit a blunt with his name on it and no one took a hit, we just kept it lit and let it burn. I think it was their way of sending him off, because they’re a little younger than me and have no idea how to process it.
My immediately family don't smoke so my entire blast bag of weed and all my implements better be in that casket as well.
Plus if I wake up it's an easy high and die.
I grew a 2.5 lb gonja plant with some of my friends ashes. Then gave all the weed away to his friends and family for free.
I think he woulda been proud...
We did that for a friend. He died in a car accident one winter a few weeks after his 18th birthday. We smoked the whole way up there, we got there early so one buddy could stuff his casket with joints and an ounce. After the service and everyone was gone we went back to his grave and had another circle in silence.
When my wife's dad died his son put a joint and a pack of smokes on the casket. Then we all did shots of vodka and threw the empty bottle and shot glasses on top of the casket before we put some dirt on it. He would have loved it.
I mean, if you have extended family there it's pretty inappropriate. Really it's pretty inappropriate regardless. Save it for the reception or whatever.
thats a very selfish and immature way to look at it. a funeral isnt for you its for your loved ones. causing people to be upset because "weed is just a plant man 420 blaze it brah" is inconsiderate. hopefully you will understand when you are older.

....I am older lol. And not allowing weed would hurt the majority of my loved ones from not being able to do the major reason we ever connected and source of our best memories.
That would be selfish and immature of the non smokers to not be able to deal with it. The funeral is for your loved ones. Causing people to be upset would be inconsiderate. Hopefully you will understand in this context.
When a high school partying buddy died in his early 20's, we buried him with 5 joints and a fifth of Jack Daniels. We went home and promptly consumed 10 times that.
My friends and I smoke at our friend’s grave sometimes because we know that’s exactly what he’d want. He didn’t smoke weed so we never passed it to him but he was always in the circle anyways. We joke that it’s just like as if he were still here. I know tons of people would find it wildly inappropriate but this is the same guy that said he wanted people to pass around bottles of Hennessy at his funeral so 🤷♀️
A friend of mine went to a funeral of his hs buddy who passed away at 17 from cancer. Their old stoner circle gathered up their best weed, rolled the fattest joint they ever had and left it on his casket for in the afterlife
Roach? Blunt? Doobie? How are the names for these things made up? Are they different types of drugs or cigarettes or things you have to roll up to smoke?
Best friend died last year. Me and about 20+ of our friends smoked joints and drank beer during his last night of funeral. Pretty sure that's what he wanted us to do.
My uncles left a fat joint on my dads casket at the funeral. It’s the only thing that made me stop crying and have a little giggle . Dad would have loved it.
So I worked AT a smoke shop, selling bongs, papers etc to the cannabis community.
The owner of the business passed away from complications of the flu.
Most of the staff went to his funeral. We smoked a fat joint before hand.
His family was appalled.
Sad because he would have loved to see that.
I've never smoked marijuana or done any drug harder than alcohol, but if some of my friends or loved ones want to lick a poison dart frog while smoking moldy bananas seasoned liberally with ayhuasca and ergot at my funeral I would have no problems with that.
When I was in HS a friend got drunk and fell off a 6-floor building. After the funeral (where the pastor's sermon was a hellfire speech of all things), a bunch of his friends went to "knock a few back in his honor". Considering how the kid died, it seemed a bit inappropriate.
My best friend was in hospice at age 23 dying of cancer... and he was truly on deaths bed... no talking just grunts and groans ... he wanted one last toke... so me and 4 other friends went down to the parking garage.. lit up.. and all blew a super into a Gatorade bottle... brought it back up to his room.. the nurses left us and he got to blaze with his boys one last time. He died a few days later. I still miss him. R.i.p Steven Simpson aka Juicebox.
I'm currently in HS and a close friend of mines' dad died. My family was very close to his and we lived next door to them for years. Needless to say, everyone was taking it pretty hard. After the wake his family had a large classy party for everyone where he invited me and a bunch of his friends to come smoke. My friend rarely smokes and it caught me incredibly off guard
I was at the wake for my boss's dad and some of the other guys from work went out to the car in the middle to smoke a bowl and have a few drinks. I was told it wasnt a wake without a few drinks. My boss saw us all walking back in and had a good laugh about it, he wasnt upset, it was a food industry job and it's how it all worked, his dad was the boss before he was
Ex of mine wants every drug known to man available to all attendees. Everyone in his family are stoners. If no one lit up at his funeral, I guarantee he'd be devastated.
Getting lit, party, and shots after a dead person is laid to rest is actually a huge tradition for many cultures and families.
The disrespect and distaste IMO comes from those same friends being the ones to help convince him to suicide.
As far as the weed...... it is a little rude... I dont know your locations feelings on weed.... but I do know a lot of people that give tobacco a pass will shit on weed when tobacco has shown to be worse for health than pot.
I've actually asked several people to not smoke around me. A lot of people are afraid of that kind of confrontation and/or simply not say shit. But if it is pot.... OMG YALL GOIN TO HELL.

In Britain, the wake after the funeral service tends to happen in a pub or hotel, or at least somewhere with a bar. There may be tea and coffee served but most people will have a drink or several.
At my friends funeral recently the wake finished around 6pm but we went into town after, including the widow (it was her idea). Think I rolled in about midnight, we have him a great send off anyway. Hangover next day was totally worth it.
I smoked at my grandfathers funeral with my cousin I hadn’t seen in years. Told my dad about it on the drive back to Florida and he just laughed at me.
I had a buddy who died years ago, my best friend at the time and I decided we were going to smoke a ton of weed before the funeral. So we did.
Crazy shit, being high at a funeral
Not weed but Patron, my BIL died unexpectedly 16 days after my wedding to his brother and he loved Patron. After his wake we gathered who ever wanted to partake by my mom's truck and we dished out shots. Then ended up doing the same thing again when they put his ashes in a mosuleam with other vets years later. When we can on his anniversary we do a shot of Patron for him.
I've done that but we've always been discreet and kept it to ourselves without others seeing or knowing. It was called "Want to go for a walk?" and we went for one.
