The last Final Fantasy game published for the Playstation 1, it was released around 2000/2001, after the overall failure of Final Fantasy 8. As a result, Squaresoft didn't market it as much as it had the previous two games.
The game is a return to earlier games, where each of the 8 characters have one class they stick to for the entire game. The characters weren't as customizable as those in the previous two games and the limit break system was replaced by a "Trance" system which had its own advantages and disadvantages (hitting Trance gives each character different special powers but you couldn't "save" it up between battles like you could with Limit Breaks).
The story itself is reasonably engaging, involving an over-dramatic villain of indeterminate gender (seriously, it's hard to tell whether Kuja is male or female, despite all the characters referring to Kuja as a he), a plausible love story and ultimately a fight for the souls of everyone on the planet.
Final Fantasy IX has many of the staples of the series with a few improvements. For example, the game actually encourages you to steal from creatures (there are about 4 or 5 creatures in the entire game that don't have something to steal, and one of the main character's attacks does damage based on how much you've stolen throughout the game), the Chocobo sidequest is useful for obtaining all sorts of items and it's actually possible to do well in the card game (Tetra Master) without a huge amount of effort. The major sticking point as far as the game system is concerned is the frustration that can be gained when trying to learn new Blue Magic - in this game, you have to beat down enemies to 1/8 of their health before the Blue Mage can eat them and gain their abilities (if the Blue Mage has Tranced, they only need to be down to 1/4 of their health)
Overall, while it's not as popular as Final Fantasy VII, it's still a good game in its own right, and a reasonably popular one among those that know it.

A drink combing 4-Loko and 5-Hour Energy. (5+4=9). Heart failure is almost guaranteed following consumption two servings.
#1: What happened to Alex last night?
#2: Well after he and that girl each drank a 9-hour-loko, they proceeded to get naked and skinny dip in the lake.
#1: It's January...
#2: Exactly.

Every day, from here on out, is post 9/11. Referring to it usually implies that something was to be learned on 9/11 and has not been, usually security driven.

Year 9 girls are mostly orange asf and they think they’re sexy because they probably sucked someone off in a park.The year 9 boys think they’re hard but in reality they all get laughed at by the year 10’s and 11’s.Some of them are alright tho especially the one nice kid that’s the plug🔌Year 9 is a year of trashy development to sum shit up
Oh look at that orange chav you can tell she’s from year 9
Oh yeah you can
Year 9’s when you think you can become hobby with everyone

When smoking medical marijuana, the amount of the cannabanoid delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in it will determine the psychoactive effect or head "high" the patient experiences. Cannabidiol or 'CBD' is the other cannabanoid found in marijuana and interacts with THC. CBD is known for providing positive effects to the body without the psychoactive (heady) effects.
