      It’s more so that there were already studies about this, I think. I had also heard about this years ago.

      I think it’s the kind of thing people don’t retain because they don’t like it. Cars and the “freedom” they give are still very romanticized.

      and just go off of what seems right then. That’ll make everything better.

      I don’t want to freak anyone out but if you mix beer before grass, well you’re gonna end up on your ass.

        After years of conducting research and many regrets, my theory is that the sedative effect of the alcohol makes it easier to take a much bigger hit than you realize.

        And something about the blood chemistry with the sudden rush of THC when your BAC is already elevated likely has something to do with it too. Versus the other way around, where getting stoned doesn’t really make you take bigger gulps, and the THC level is already stable when your BAC gradually increases, so it doesn’t knock you on your ass the same way.
