I tried this yesterday, but I was drunk.
This regularly happens to me. I’m a 30 year old man who… I’m a phone addict.
I knew a kid that was trying to show off his new hookup to the group of us and in doing so we discovered he literally bought oregano because he didn’t know what he was doing. I honestly never thought it happened in real life and was just like a stoner movie trope, but he proved me wrong that day.
(Hilariously, many years later, he became pretty good at homegrown.)
I've had some pretty dumb thoughts while high. I've always been a lightweight with weed - The "Happy, Hungry, Sleepy" cycle of being high happened for me in the span of about 90 minutes, so while all my friends were having a hysterical time or went out after we smoked, I would already be passed out. Needless to say, dumb "things" never happened for me, because I literally couldn't stay awake long enough for them to happen.
The dumbest thought I ever had while high was that I convinced myself I had two brains, and that one brain could predict the thoughts of the other brain before it thought them. Yes, really. And that's why I haven't smoked in like 25 years.

That's hilarious! Honestly, I rather enjoy that sensation of temporarily being.... not stupid... but willing to uncritically entertain stupid ideas.
First time we made edibles we knew that you have to wait about 45-60 minutes (probably more actually, but that was what we knew back then) until the effect starts. We waited maybe half an hour and ate two before we noticed that we massively misjudged how much weed to put into them. And OF COURSE we also drank alcohol before.
That evening sucked so much.
The dumbest thing I think I ever heard of was prosecuting people for possession of cannabis.
I'm personally really good at drinking something with caffeine in it while high and having anxiety spikes and sometimes panic attacks. I occasionally do that and never learn.
Besides me, not much honestly. My friends and family are relatively well behaved while stoned.
Just the usual common mistakes with impatience with edibles, forgotten burnt pizza, and driving while high in a small town with very little traffic.
Don't drive high.
This may be dumb in and of itself, but I'm not even sure I know what it smells like let alone been certain I've been in the presence of anyone who's been actively using it.
That said, I do remember, on multiple occasions, walking to work past at least one group of schoolchildren who were smoking something that did not smell like plain tobacco. If that was weed or resin or something in their hand rolled cigarettes, then I have to say that that was a pretty dumb thing to be doing at their age.
Not my circus, not my monkeys. Just carried on to work.
In college, guy went to the bathroom, found a lighter in his pocket and started lighting toilet paper on fire while on the toilet. No idea how long he was in there but it was bad enough that the fire sprinklers went off and flooded the basement and first floor. The guy got kicked out of the dorm, but don’t know what else happened or how much it cost.
