For me personally I don't see it as people being snooty or pretending to be something they are not. I have been smoking weed regularly since 83 first smoked in early 81. I have smoked a lot of good and bad weed over the years.
I like the fact that there is a lot more information available to us now than there has been for many years. Thank goodness for the online MoM forums and other online sources. I have learned more about weed in the last couple of years than I have in all of the other years combined since I have started smoking weed.
The more we know about weed the better people can elaborate and share on their experiences with differing strains from different sources. For me I would rather have a more detailed review than a one word review. I believe it helps a lot of people make better decisions when purchasing their next strain increasing their level of satisfaction.
The one thing that makes me cringe is when someone gets a seed or even a couple seeds in their bag and they flip shit.
I sit back like, bitch, you have no idea how shit was back in the day. The struggle was real back in the 80's and 90's seeds were just a part of everyday life. Most of the time seeds made up a considerable part of the weight of your bag and that was just the way it was.
The run of the mill weed back then would have been considered absolute crap by today's standards. It was mostly Mexican brick weed occasionally non compressed weed that was referred to as red haired sinse, green bud or skunk bud if it smelled skunky. We very rarely had named weed and when we did you paid 3 to 4 hundred an oz.
The younger crowd has no idea just how good they have it nowadays.
Sorry if it sounds like I am ranting.
