    Yeah, and that means you’re gonna have to have coupon day too, buddy. That price is going to drive everybody smoking it cheap instead of cheap sunglasses. It’s gonna be cheap buds.

    Gee whiz legalizing drugs in the US has done so much good for everybody. The only people who like that are the people who do them. Morons

    No what’s going to happen is I’m going to go sell my dispensary so I just sell from the house and put it into the bank. I would have mine even cheaper than anyone else’s and just pay the taxes.

    We’re about 50 years behind schedule in getting this plant reclassified. But the wheels are finally moving. Government moves slow sometimes.

    Got my favorite selection
    From a new dispensary in Hometown IL. called AYR Wellness.
    They have a good selection and good deals.
    But to see how this will affect the industry is going to be interesting

    KANSAS POT FARMER SONG – 2024 $$
    I got out my pipe stuffed it with pot
    You better believe it held a whole lot.
    I whipped out a lighter thumbed up a flame
    Sucked down that smoke which comforts my brain.

    I tried alcohol smoked cigarettes
    They did nothing but give me regrets.
    My mom had arthritis could not walk around
    I rolled her a joint she danced on the ground.

    I thought I was losing my lovemaking knack
    After I smoked some to me it came back.
    Soon I decided prices were high
    I searched for some ground I wouldn’t have to buy.

    I bargained for seeds from smokers all around
    Got in my truck and drove out of town.
    I walked through the woods where wild birds nest
    Found me the meadow I thought was the best.

    I dug up the ground sowed all my seeds
    Said a small prayer for strong, healthy weeds.
    I watered at night with a five-gallon pail
    Mosquitoes went hungry for I wore a veil.

    Seven months went by; I thought I would die
    Till the Halloween moon was high in the sky.
    At night I went out, in a camouflage suit
    Used my corn knife to chop down the loot.

    I hung it up to dry where it could not be found.
    Came back and got it, when it had turned brown.
    I trimmed off the buds, stuffed them in bags
    Called all my friends and passed out free drags.

    In less than a week my crop was gone
    I flew to St. Thomas with a love hungry blonde!!
