My dad always used to say “beggars can’t be choosers” and although he wasn’t talking about weed, he was right! As a high school kid in a small midwestern town, I had very few options when it came to having fun.
Sneaking some beers, or some weed, and partying in a clearing in the woods was about the only fun thing we had to do.
No wonder so many small town kids end up alcoholics, because it is just so boring out there! Whenever I had a chance to score some cannabis, I always had to buy whatever was offered. Beggars can’t be choosers, remember? Back then there were no cannabis dispensaries, and finding anyone who had weed to sell was very rare, so I had to take what I could get. There were only a handful of occasions where I bought high quality marijuana, most of the time it was scrub weed grown in someone’s cornfield. “Scrub weed” was our slang term for locally grown, poor-quality cannabis, and most of what we had available was scrub weed. These days the whole world has changed, and I have legal access to a couple of different cannabis dispensaries. I am no longer a beggar, I am a chooser, and like to take my time and carefully select which strains of cannabis I want to smoke that week. I try to choose something new and interesting every time I visit the cannabis dispensary because I want to experience them all. After so many years of smoking scrub weed I am enjoying the variety of cannabis strains I have available.
