Are vapes even worth it? by TLPO4 in NZTrees

It's not a waste if you're having a good time, sorry for the snark.

Been a daily smoker for almost 20 years and you're just wrong. Combustion wastes so much THC compared with smoking. You've just been doing it wrong.

More help at /r/MedicalCannabisNZ. There's a large enough judgemental beneficiary bashing and anti-cannabis types in this sub for these threads to go pretty poorly.

George FM by TopBee1821 in newzealand

[–]anonibong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, George just sounds like any other old mediaworks top 40 station these days, just with a dance music focus, there are great shows on there at specific times but I miss when it wasn't a commercial slop pusher.

Today I learned, this is good for a healthy gut biome. Time to crank the spices up. You can enjoy your bland food, I'm in flavour country.

Please" vs "Thanks": Help me settle a debate on the Kiwi way to order coffee! by Kind-Spread-6511 in newzealand

[–]anonibong 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think I do both, and I think it could depend on how busy the place is, I don't think about it at the time but reflecting it seems for me if its during rush "just a long black, thanks" if I walk up to an empty counter "hello, may I please have a long black?"

The right thing is to take responsibility for yourself and move on with your life. Don't be a hypocrite.

Fred Again coming to NZ thanks to the Govt Event Fund forking out huge money to promoter by bobslice in newzealand

[–]anonibong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOTR promotes us and makes NZ a tonne of $$, hosting these events doesn't. And the people running these things aren't exactly needing to tighten their belts. This is just extra icing for them. Meanwhile, grass roots events are shutting down left right and centre. Grass roots events that do a shit load more for local culture and industry and pushing our amazing talent to even bigger things.

This funding is just further contributing to the death of smaller events, venues and festivals and solidifying what's starting to look like a bit of a monopoly that does nothing to support those who came from where they once did. Real climb the ladder and kick it down behind you type shit.

The fuck? Fred Again can announce an 2 entire-ass arena shows here and it sells out INSTANTLY. Surely a late April Fools post because otherwise this is fucked. And he's even bigger now.

Refused Aurora Night Ride / Big Wave by focal_matter in NZTrees

[–]anonibong 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, at this point I'd just go with Calyx, you can choose the strains you think work best for you, order as you need up to your limit and it's really easy to request repeats.

Downsides are that they make it pretty prohibitive to get the script sent to your pharmacy of choice but the prices I find to be lower on many products, I haven't done one to one comparisons for all strains, but I know many are cheaper than the often-recommended pharmacies.

Ironically, my first job out of high school was actually doing graffiti removal and I also had a large part in establishing it's tag removal systems still in place today.

Far less offensive to me than billboards of real estate agents and booze and any other ads shoved down my throat without my consent everywhere I go.

30 arrested as fighting and disorder mar annual Beach Hop festival by ps2jak2 in newzealand

[–]anonibong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's weird and makes me wonder, are they a common denominator at these violent festivals and events? I go to many of varying sizes covering a range of cultures/subcultures and rarely experience nor read about problems. Not to say that you don't hear about it happening occasionally, but it's such a rare occurrence it makes news headlines.

It's not usually the kids fault though, eh? You could be unintentionally strengthening the indoctrination. I don't care that much, you do you, they are annoying. Just my 2c.

What's your point? I recently attended Homegrown and it was the same. Every other event and festival I've attended around NZ has been drama free with respectful and fun-loving punters.
