cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome

Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) is when you smoke weed every week to everyday for several years and end up vomiting a lot.

What causes cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome?
Marijuana has very complex effects on the body. Experts are still trying to learn exactly how it causes CHS in some people.

In the brain, marijuana often has the opposite effect of CHS. It helps prevent nausea and vomiting. The drug is also good at stopping such symptoms in people having chemotherapy.

But in the digestive tract, marijuana seems to have the opposite effect. It actually makes you more likely to have nausea and vomiting. With the first use of marijuana, the signals from the brain may be more important. That may lead to anti-nausea effects at first. But with repeated use of marijuana, certain receptors in the brain may stop responding to the drug in the same way. That may cause the repeated bouts of vomiting found in people with CHS.

Since CHS was discovered pretty recently, some doctors might not know about it. Also, CHS is often confused with cyclical vomiting.

Doctor: Steve! You have cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. I thought it was cyclical vomiting but you tested positive for THC and have a history of smoking marijuana everyday. You have to quit cannabis, or weed. You can never smoke weed again! You should have used moderation.
Steve: Nooooooo!

Steve: *Quits weed for 3 months
Steve: Hey! The nausea is gone.

Andre: Cool! Wanna chug Kratom?

Church of Cannabinology 

This is a church in which the belief system revolves around the practical and sometimes impractical use of cannabis sativa and indica. Much like the church of scientology, there is the use of stress tests at kiosks in malls, (they actually escort you outside to their 1974 Ford conversion van with the wolf howling at the moon paint job, and the stress test is just you hitting a vaporizer,) there are massive amounts of cash rolling into the church, and the church was founded by an egotistical writer by the name of B. Sam Verbeck. The differences lie in that the church of cannabinology is not anti-homosexual, it is not a cult, it's basically just a front for copious amounts of weed being dealt to the public with a tax free status. If you are to join the Church of Cannabinology, you'll see that many of life's problems go away when you get blazed and played Super Mario Allstars all day long.
Stoned dude: Oh my ganj! You gotta check out the stress test that the guys from the Church of Cannabinology are giving out!

Not stoned dude: You mean Scientology?

Stoned dude: No man, Cannabinology! Check out the kiosk, they blaze you out with a volcano vaporizer and some real heady nugs!

Not stoned dude: Cannabis H. Sativa! I'm there bro!

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
