Smokin Pot

[Vipergrün]

I am more concerned about the special snowflakes that need to bring a friggen "emotional support" dog on the plane, which proceeds to take a crap.

Yeah, the guy was an idiot. Most airports have smoking areas outdoors, should have tried that....

Zactly... he could of got what he wanted in a cookie... I'm pretty sure you can get THC in vape (vap?) form...

Any form of smoking has been banned from flights for decades, correct?

But then I still get in the security line behind the guy who tries to go through with his keys in his pocket and full size toiletries in his carry on.

At LAX they have smoking areas inside security (little outdoor pavilions where you can go to get your nicotine fix) not sure how common that is though.

The passengers are waiting at our gate for another plane, which may or may not make our flight late.

Major expense for the airline and inconvenience for 100 people or so.

All because some jackass doesn't know how to behave.

I would so be tempted to punch that guy in the face.

Remember those days when we dressed up to fly on an airplane?
I would wear a sport jacket and tie.
Now days you see such sloppy dress...looking like pajamas, even. And their attendant BO.
American freedom, I guess.

I believe it is a federal offense so he should be facing some court time at least.

Per part 121 I think.

Too bad his parents didn't teach him to deal with reality.
Poor baby.

Update. On my second flight I overheard two guys talking who were on the first flight. After push-back the cabin became permeated with the smell of pot. No one actually saw anyone smoking, but a lot of people recognized the smell. They speculate someone toked up in the toilet, but no one really knows because no one was actually seen smoking. Turns out the pot plane had actually loaded at the same gate our plane was at. It returned to an adjacent gate to unload and there was mass confusion about which passengers belonged to which flight because some of the passengers on each flight were on the first leg of trips to the same final destination, but different initial destinations. It was a total cluster fuch.
That's all I know about it.

Selfish as hell, hope they serve a little time for being an a-hole. I would extend the same comment to a cigarette smoker btw, don't allow your habit or political statement to inconvenience me.

Maybe one of the airline staff was having a "quiet moment", before passenger boarding (replace the glue with a doobie):

But smoking pot doesn't make you stupid ......

Woman Calls Police to Report Her Drug Dealer For Hiking Prices
Home World
By Kieran Corcoran | 6:58 am, February 1, 2017

A woman called her local police department to complain that her drug dealer was ripping her off with an unexpected price hike.

The unnamed woman rang officers in the remote Northern Territory, Australia, in the hope they would intervene over the cost of marijuana.

The drug is illegal everywhere in Australia.

This fact appears to have occurred to the woman part way through her call, as she hung up when officers asked for more detail.

Bemused officers shared the news of the call in a Facebook post, adding that anybody else suffering similar problems should “give us a call” as they’d “love to help”.

The post said:

A woman called police to complain about the price of marijuana in her community, reporting that her local drug dealer had asked for more money than the usual.

Completely offended, the woman demanded that police investigate this ‘outrageous’ price hike. When asked for further details, the woman hung up.

If you know a drug dealer who is ripping you off, give us a call, we’d love to help.
Their message quickly went viral, racking up some 15,000 shares.
