Med Card

A medical marijuana card. Often used to refer to a medical marijuana card that is obtained solely for the purpose of obtaining recreational marijuana if you are under 21 or live in a medical only state. A med card may be obtained by claiming to have anxiety, trouble sleeping, and similar conditions.

I told the doctor that I was getting anxious and he gave me a med card. Let's go smoke!

Stryka moln med fjäder

This expression describes the futile attempt to achieve something grand or ambitious with inadequate or unrealistic resources. The imagery of trying to "brush clouds," which represents a vast and lofty goal, with a "feather," an object too delicate and ineffective for such a task, highlights the impracticality and likely failure of the endeavor. It suggests that the tools or methods being used are far too weak or insufficient to accomplish the desired outcome, making the effort almost absurd in its lack of feasibility. The saying translated to english roughly means "brushing clouds with a feather"-Ulf Skönberg

Context: Two colleagues, Anna and Mark, are discussing Mark's plan to revamp the entire company's software system with a very limited budget.

Anna: "So, you really think you can overhaul the entire software system with just that small budget?"

Mark: "I know it’s tight, but I think we can manage if we cut a few corners."

Anna: "Mark, that sounds like trying to "brush clouds with a feather". The budget just isn’t enough for something this big."

Mark: sighs "You’re probably right. I guess I need to either scale back the project or push for more funding."

Anna: "Exactly. With the right tools and resources, you can achieve a lot more. But with what you have now, it’s going to be a struggle."

Sammanhang: Två kollegor, Anna och Mark, diskuterar Marks plan att förnya hela företagets mjukvarusystem med en mycket begränsad budget.

Anna: "Så, du tror verkligen att du kan se över hela mjukvarusystemet med bara den lilla budgeten?"

Mark: "Jag vet att det är tight, men jag tror att vi kan klara oss om vi skär några hörn."

Anna: "Mark, det låter som att försöka "stryka moln med fjäder". Budgeten räcker helt enkelt inte till något så här stort."

Mark: suckar "Du har förmodligen rätt. Jag antar att jag måste antingen minska projektet eller driva på för mer finansiering."

Anna: "Precis. Med rätt verktyg och resurser kan du uppnå mycket mer. Men med det du har nu kommer det att bli en kamp."
