You have to say the activation words: "Man, these edibles ain't shit".
Then you buckle up because the stoner gods will hear that shit and punish/reward you accordingly
You forgot the most important part. You have to utter those words while standing up from the couch.
No the most important part is saying they ain’t shit as you eat another one
Luckily, I was pretty cautious the first times trying them as I'm pretty new to all this, and I just sat on them for for a few hours. After the first hour or so I was indeed saying "these ain't shit!". Later I was indeed rewarded for the wait. lol
I wonder what effect it would have, to chew the edible for a long time rather than swallowing it? Like, would it not absorb the cannabinoids sublingually much quicker than going through the stomach?
I do this with shrooms and it always seems to bring the effects on quicker for me than my friends who just swallow it.
I definitely notice the oral absorption with edibles with just normal eating (not sure if everyone gets that? I have a pretty low tolerance), I've never thought to keep it in my mouth on purpose though. I'll be testing that out next time I have some.
I was planning to go on a trip later today so I'll be trying that trick with shrooms, thanks for the tip.
Edit - I'm mostly back to earth now; I really liked it. normally I feel kinda weird and tingly for the ~hour it takes for shrooms to kick in and sometimes that can put me in a bad headspace, but there was a nice and very noticeable immediate effect with chewing them for ages that helped me get into the right mood to appreciate the 'main event' more. I really needed it :)
No worries, happy tripping :)
