Re 'hyperbole' I can assure you the seniors where we live cannot be without their 'stimulants' spend quite a bit of cash pursuing it, grow it, etc. Totally amazes me - if you give a dinner party here be prepared and provide lots of outdoor seating and ashtrays as most of your guests will spend more time outside than at the dinner table - same at restaurants go in a group and DH and I are generally the only 2 sitting full time at the table. Just their choices and we all need to make our own - nothing against their enjoyment, most of them nice people when not stoned - but sometimes very boring if you do not partake. Just my viewpoint however.

Excuse me..have to get the fire hose and rid the lawn of potheads. They’re everywhere you know, and no laws apply to them so police will be able to do nothing. Muahaha!
I know...I keep seeing weather reports of the freezing temps in so many places. Saw lots of people here, wearing shorts today!

I didn’t go out today, but my orthotic flip-flops have arrived so I can get a pedi tomorrow or - ? It’s been chilly enough that I’ve wanted to only wear closed shoes but needed to have something to put on until the paint is thoroughly dry

Well, onionsoup was unbelievably negative, but @HLP....you're just hilarious!!!!
The “work” of the former is ongoing in multiple other threads on various topics. Must be basement fever.

I split time between two 55-plus communities but have never noticed stoned seniors. Too much alcohol, yes.

I still want to know what part of the valley this is.
I've lived here over 42 years and never have seen a community of elder stoners!
Eta
Wait a minute!
They are smoking weed at restaurants too? Where the heck is this????

Those that I know who partake recreationally almost invariably use at home. Those I know who use medicinally (including myself) always do it at home. If there’s social, with-others use it’s at home.
As far as restaurants, I’m assuming Dulwich meant people get up and leave the table, go to the parking lot, come back, etc just like people do with tobacco. I’d be very surprised if public consumption was legal. It is not in CA.

@Ms tyrion2 Did not say smoking in restaurants read what I said please - DH and I left sitting at table would indicate others outside of restaurant smoking yes? Get it!
I am not getting into this anymore they were examples of OUR experiences - not imaginations - in reply to threads of so called horrors we should expect in CA.

@dulwich, I keep seeing FB ads for Parker’s. Maybe we could do a joint order sometime. I couldn’t eat $100 worth of food on my own, and/but the s&h if you order less is pretty much doubling the order cost :-(

Public consumption is not legal in AZ. I go out to dinner a lot. I've yet to smell weed smoke in a restaurant parking lot here. I meant to say restaurant parking lot in my post, BTW.
I really don't know where Dulwich lives, but public consumption here is certainly not as common as she stated in her first post on the subject. Maybe just a bit of exaggeration for effect.
