Nug Report ~ Chocolate Thai

4:17 PM PST on January 20, 2009

Chocolate Thai

It is truly a time of great change. This was "the kind" back in the day, and along with the unique and phenomenal Thai stick, was always a real exotic treat to find. I was pretty stoked to find some good chocolate thai in the valley. This looked like brownish dirt weed from certain angles, but its guts revealed a universe of frosty crystals. Its proliference of hairs were a dark red and some of the leaves looked purplish , as well as dark green. The smell definitely had chocolate notes, while the taste was darkly tuned with notes of black pepper and a touch of spice. The high still matches today's kind buds, I was tingly and spacy, and fully relaxed. It rocked me in head and corpse. Great for listening to music!

Why Are So Many Restaurants Using A.I. for Menus Now?

I already miss the era of gloriously sticky menus, coated with years of grease and who knows what else, and a menu behind the counter with pixelated photos, overexposed plates, low-quality clipart, and typos galore.
