Originally posted by Bosse de NageIt sounds like you're referring to the sativa subspecies. It supposedly gives you a 'head high' and I know (at least I believe) it smells stronger. Typical odors include cat urine (there's a strain called Cat Piss actually), beef top ramen, stinky cheese and citrus. I don't like it. If you're into getting stoned and going dancing, this is probably the strain for you.
People often don't understand that in the UK 'marijuana' usually means 'skunk' i.e. psycho-weed.
I usually smoke indicas myself. These smell more earthy, have more gooey and compact buds and hit your body. This is the kind that knocks you out and makes you lazy.
EDIT - It looks like 'skunk' is a fairly weak hybrid of the two strains.

It's much nicer, though I agree, it's like snorting battery acid, and after the two-three days that you're constantly jittering and twitching, your joints feel terrible.

My favourite intoxicant goes on two legs.
Otherwise, tequila and dope. The last time I did 'shrooms I had an incredibly nasty sense of cosmic tedium. Acid was a closer shave than I ever knew at the time. Cocaine is for off-duty clowns, the kind will cut you just for fun. As for crystal meth -- why not snort caustic soda as well.

"Skunk" cannabis is a potent strain of cannabis, grown through selective breeding and usually hydroponics, that is a cross-breed of Cannabis sativa and C. indica. Skunk cannabis potency ranges usually from 6% to 15% and rarely as high as 20%. The average THC level in coffeehouses in the Netherlands is about 18–19%."
No way is skunk weak. It'll rip the top off your skull.
I'm very fond of hashish, come to think of it, though it's a comparative rarity in my routine.

Indica would be the one I'm used to, then.

I have a gram of medium quality hash in front of me now. I've been sick so I haven't been smoking lately. I don't smoke it straight though; my friend used to do that and it would just melt down the neck of the bowl of his bong in his case. In a regular pipe I bet it would run down and mix with the tar in the innards of the pipe - what a waste!
EDIT - Poor form to quote Wiki without acknowledging it 😠

Has to be weed. Drink is too messy and other drugs take too much out of you physically and mentally.
I'm not a big fan of skunk and it's ilk, much preferring the more mellow "bush" variety. Best way of getting it into you? Requirements: 1 500ml soft drink bottle, with 2 small holes, 1 wide necked pipey thing from a bong-no gauze, 1 lighter, 1 thumb, 1 mouth and good set of lungs. Using 30% of you lung capacity, burn the weed + teeny bit of baccy mix until the ash falls into the bottle, then use the remaining 70% of lung capacity to quickly inhale everything, using a breathing motion as though you have just plunged into ice cold water.
No hit to the lungs and the most beautiful high you can imagine. The only thing that compares with it is a pop on Coyote bills vaporisor in the Cannabis museum in Amsterdam.
