And we called people who were not hippies or freaks "straight". This did not refer to sexual preference, but meant someone you should not share your dope with.
"Dope" meant grass or ganja, which we might refer to as pot or cannabis today, or as young people call it, "weed".
Some straights used "hippie" or "freak" as derogatory terms, but we took them as a badge of pride.
Let your freak flag fly!
But someone could look straight and still be cool. Once you knew they were cool, pass them a joint!
Time to fill the Pax 3 vaporizer with some fresh Jack Herer flower. A lot better than the awful joints we used to roll. Remember roach clips?
The roach was the strongest part of the joint, so it was highly prized and we smoked it right down to the end. No matter that it tasted awful and burned your lips and fingers even with a clip.
I did see a few people roll little filters into their joints, but it was rare. You were wise to do that.
As for myself, I never smoked again after trying a flower vaporizer for the first time a dozen years ago. So much better than burning it!
