Admiral Ray posted:LD50 for THC isn't really known since it's a loving lot. As an example, we've fed dogs and monkeys 3 grams/kilogram THC/bodyweight and they didn't die. This is comparable to a 150 lb person eating 46 lbs of pot. Thanks!

Alcohol is completely different as it does not occur commonly in nature, the plant has to undergo deliberate fermentation etc and it can be distilled and made exponentially more dangerous which is also not possible with THC. Sure, whatever dad.

I wouldn't say having a lovely time is an overdose. Hell if I have a couple puffs I'm anxious as gently caress and it's terrible. Barring insane circumstances a person can't really get enough THC in their system to cause bodily harm.

AITA for going to see a concert with sexist lyrics against GF's wishes?quote:I bought a concert ticket for a band I've always wanted to see since this may be their very last tour. Their music has some fairly sexist lyrics which GF of 1 month strongly objects to and she absolutely does not want me to go. The ticket was bought before i met her and i don't want to give them up as it's a good seat and somewhat expensive so i've offered to take her out to a concert or donate an equivalent amount to a charitable cause of her choice but she's not budging. AITA for deciding to go anyways?

PostNouveau posted:I dunno if anyone's studied it, but in my personal experience, edibles last a lot longer and you can't turn it off. Like you're just gonna be high for 6 hours whereas if you're smoking you can just stop smoking and not be high in an hour. Usually when you hear about someone having a freakout their first time on weed, they ate something. Back in '98, I went over to friends at christmas and found a plate with brownies in the kitchen with a note "free for all", had 2, they were slightly burned but otherwise ok. Placed myself on the couch and hit the bong a couple of times, and the girl who made them came in. "Hi Power Khan, did you see the spacebrownies yet?" "Uhhhh..." What followed wasn't pleasant. I don't like ingesting stuff, and on top of the bong hits, that was way too much for comfort. The place was too crowded and loud. Paranoia creeping up, it's cold and dark outside, you can't walk it off. A friend lived close, so I called her and she had me over. We watched a docu about rutting deer and listened to jazz, she made some tea for me and took care. Man, that was really nice of her. I was completely wheeled. No idea how I got home, but that stuff lasted throughout the next day. Unintentionally getting high af isn't pleasant.

Power Khan posted:Ingesting it increases the potency by a margin, but the LD50 for a kid of that weight is somewhere around 15-21g pure THC The LD50 for THC is only theoretical AFAIK, and has never been seen in tests. Like it would essentially kill you because you crowded out your blood, not because of any specific reaction, and there’s not really a way for that to feasibly happen.

Alternatively, donate money to Steven Tyler's charity for girls in her name. I'd observe the real crime here is spending hundreds of dollars to go see a band that's well past its prime.

Placed myself on the couch and hit the bong a couple of times, and the girl who made them came in. "Hi Power Khan, did you see the spacebrownies yet?" The only time I ever had more than secondhand weed smoke was when a friend made a batch of brownies. She swears she told me to only eat a corner, I swear she told me to eat the whole thing. Either way, I ingested about 4 times as much pot as the experienced stoners in the room. I basically felt like my body was ahead of my brain. I'd be catching things thrown to me and eating and talking, and then not acknowledging it consciously until up to 30 seconds later that I had just done it. Then I had nausea that slowly got worse until I threw up in her bathroom. I was still kinda high all next day.

There is a reason we don't typically leave 9 year olds at home for hours by themselves. The fact that the kid needs supervision should be a clue that you should not leave drugs disguised as candy laying out. Kids are curious. I have a 9 year old and while I hear from acquaintances that they think I am too strict with my kids, and frequently hear from strangers in public how well behaved my kids are, I wouldn't trust even a well behaved 9 year old to resist candy that is left out. Kids love candy. What would you all think if the kid found a gun and shot a wall? Qould you all say no harm came to anyone so what's the big deal!? That kid should have known better than to touch the gun. It's not negligent to leave a gun on your nightstand when a kid is around, it wasn't in the living room. The kid shouldn't have been snooping!

therobit posted:In that they both fall into the category of things that only a colossal loving moron would leave laying around for children to find, yes. There's a really, really, really deep gulf between a kid getting high and a kid playing with something that can instantly kill them as soon as they pull a trigger. And again, it's no more dangerous (and actually less dangerous) than alcohol. Nobody would ever think that when they get told that a 9-year-old (who, again, is of the age where they should know not to be stealing stuff) is going to be spending a few hours in their house that they need to pull all of their beer and wine coolers out of the fridge and hide them in a locked closet just in case, especially if they're an adult who spends years at a time without children even entering the house. And they wouldn't think that they can't even step away for 10 or 20 minutes to take a shower without risking that kid going through their bedroom for cool stuff to take. I would hope any parent would squarely put the blame on their kid for thinking it's okay to start rummaging through someone's bedroom and stealing food and drinks once they're unsupervised. I don't consider this any different than a kid sneaking a Bacardi Breezer out of the fridge.

Weed candy can't be compared a gun. Guns are actually dangerous. A wine cooler in a fridge is much more comparable-- pretty colors, nice fruity flavor, easy to open... kid could easily think it's a soda. No one would be mad at this woman about the kid getting ahold of a wine cooler in her fridge. The blame would be on the parents and the kid.

We’ve already had a poster in this thread who said their boyfriend mixed them with regular gummy bears. I mean come on, a kid who eats one could seriously get hurt if their judgment is impaired, even setting aside how damaging and scary it must be to a kid who has no idea what’s happening. Those need to be banned yesterday.
