#2 Did they hire former American National Forest Agency workers for the 'prescribed' burn?

#5 Recently in one of those Right to Smoke states, watching some youngsters try to hot box with vape pens was ridiculous.

#9 TW: airtight room or car where all the air gets filled with pot smoke and re-breathed, so none is wasted. Pretty efficient for a buzz.

#10 ^ Anybody see Predator 2, the scene where Danny Glover rides with the voodoo posse in their smoke filled car? 😁

Gem of a movie.

#11 In a certain contained area, in this case a car, smoking an amount so that visibility becomes nil.

Like in the movie scenes at a party when the closet door opens and dudes walk out with smoke rolling after them.

#12 Great movie; Bill Paxton even.

TW, the trick is the pens out nowadays are not only more potent, but do not put out near the smoke like a cigar would.

#13 Why in the hell would you need to hot box with a vape pen? The ones I get are 93% THC.

Kids. Just glad the engine was off when the driver looked like he was trying to park. It was one of those stop and watch moments, like when people try to pet elk or that dude at spring break who beer bonged a small bottle of tequila.

#16  airtight room or car

Thanks, guys. Nobody worries about running out of oxygen, I take it, or in the case of cars discovering an unexpected excess of carbon monoxide.
