Combinations - Mixing alcohol and cannabis

[blahaha]

my dog was wondering if he should drink or smoke first. someone once told him that one before the other was better, but he can't remember which one. any suggestions?

[fnord]

Its all a personal preference. either one should work fine. Experimnet and fingure ouyt which you like better. SWIM prefers getting drunk first.

[Joe Duffy]

As mentioned already it doesn’t really matter, but if your dog is a novice to combining these two drugs there is a good chance your dog may experience nausea the first few times.

Did this the other day.

Not really worth it. Swim drank perhaps 3-4 80 proof shots, and then smoked a bowl or so.

Very strange, heavy feeling, less pyschedelic/visual from the alcohol, but more physically sedating.

Swim felt the alcohol in his stomach the entire time, it felt horrible. Swim very much disliked it.

Swim experienced the combo for about 4-5 hours. It was very neutral- slightly negtive overall.

The alcohol overwhelms much of the weed. Perhaps coming weed to alcohol would be better for Swim.

swim likes to be blazing a bowl and drinkin on a 40 for the cotton mouth. swim loves the combo but yes naseau becomes very real when the two are combined.

Swim doesn't advise that swiy goes any further than a comfortable buzz on the alcohol front. Otherwise, prepare to be unable to move easily and to just feel heavy. Truly awful in swim's taste.

Yes, it seems a small amount of one and larger of the other is the way to go. Stomach pains and nausea can be much worse than normal due to the alcohol.

The way SWIM looks at is that drinking first is fine as long as SWIY doesn't get too smashed, otherwise there's the risk of a whitey (the horror, the horror).

Smoking first is good for limiting the amount SWIY drinks (SWIM just doesn't feel like it after a smoke), but worse for social situations.

So, night in = smoke first. Night out = drink first.

My monkey said, "It's alright as long as you don't go overboard with the alcohol. I get the spins so bad I can't even stand up when I mix the two, not to mention the associated nausea. Fun when you don't go to far with it, though!"

[elpatto]

SWIM knows of a genral saying roun' his neck'o'the woods.

"Beer before grass, you're on your ass, grass before beer, you're in the clear".

SWIM thinks smoke a bowl before drinking hevily, then bottoms up!!. Sometimes after drinking alot, a big bong rip just makes SWIM feel a little unclear in his tummy.

It all comes down to experience my freind, not saying that SWIY is not experienced, but this is something that SWIyou should play with to see what is better for SWIYourself.

Best of luck.

[tryptamaster]

yea smoking first prolly eliminates alot of the naseua associated with drinkin. but swim also thinks if u drink too much it jsut straaaaaight ruins it all. swim has puked on this combo before. swim also thinks on a side note that this combo really makes u look fucked up......red glassy, eyes, flushed up face and u aint walking straight. haha

Swim does them in both orders,sometimes weed then alcohol,then sometimes alcohol weed.its really your preference.

As with any drug combination, it can vary greatly between individuals. In SWIM's own experience it can be enjoyable, although staying awake to enjoy it becomes a serious issue. SWIM's preferred method is to roll 2-3 joints before consuming anything. SWIM always includes more tobacco in joints he expects to smoke whilst drunk, as he finds it more pleasurable - tobacco is vile when sober but holds an almost irresistable attraction to SWIM's drunken mind. These joints are then set aside in a hard case so they cannot be bent by accident. He will then choose his alcohol for the night - usually triple distiled vodka mixed with orange juice or squash as this means he stays hydrated and doesn't have to worry too much about alcohols other than ethanol being present which may cause a hangover. As with any heavy alcohol consumption, some salty food (usually peanuts in SWIM's case) is supposedly useful, although he is not entirely sure of this. He then proceedes to get drunk - it is difficult to catagorise stages of drunkeness, but usually until the ability to sense pressure on finger tips and skin is noticably reduced. When he reaches that stage he will smoke his first tobacco heavy joint, and proceed from there as he feels best, sometimes drinking more, sometimes smoking more - he allows the whimsey of the night to direct him. He has done this on a regular basis for around a year and has never felt particularly negatively after doing it - indeed it quashes some of the minor fears and paranoias that rarely occur when smoking. The only real problem comes if he tries to stave off sleep for too long, as then he starts to feel washed out and weak, but after a night of sleep he usually feels pretty good the next day, if a little slow.

getting PISSED as a fart then smokin one or two Jays with mates tends to be a BAD idea in swig's opinion. the slight edgy-ness/mindfuck of the weed, probably the hallucinogenic property, tends to set the drunken mind and guts on a spin. Swig's been pretty much immobilised at otherwise decent parties from doing this.

However, if you go easy on the alcohol, you can get the balance right.

lots of alc (ie 'properly' but not overly drunk) and little weed = very pronounced sedation and heaviness.

lots of weed and decent amount of alc (ie. tipsy/buzzing/giggly) = Intense giggling, very dumb intoxication. Very fun when done right.

Hope that helps. But it may not; your body may act differently to swig's.

Oh, and don't attempt to drive: you'll most certainly die.

The only time swim whitie'd was one time he smoked when drunk. He said it was great for about 15 minutes then he felt very cold, very nauseous and puked a while later. Not a good feeling afterwards. He never did it again, he knows his limits now. It's obviously different for everyone but he feels great with a 1lt (40oz) of beer, maybe 1.5lt and then a joint.
As for the other way around (smoking then drinking) he doesn't feel the high as much, and feels full with only a couple of glasses of beer, but it works sometimes.
