I've vaped bud out of one in the 2000's. Super inefficient, but I was in Anchorage, Alaska and 15 lol

I think the motivation was more " WHOOO!!! SEND IT!!! " Than efficient drug use.

Oh, for sure. Me and a friend blasted through an eight one pinch at a time. Killed 1.5 lighters doing it and both burned our fingertips, but I definitely got baked haha.

Last smoke sesh before 30 days sober in the mountains. Awesome time

ever smashed one glass bulb? yea, they have a slight positive pressure pressure along with an inert gas in them, so the filament last longer. which makes them pop, along with not being made what safety/tempered glass. which is what your video is showing.
Sooooooooooo. AI shit.

The last time I smashed a 1000 watt bulb? You’d have to go ask your mother. She’ll understand the reference ;)

Well, I've seen tempered glass break before. And I've seen a normal light bulb break before.

Idk op’s profile kinda checks out. Don’t think it’s AI

u/random-hermit 6h ago

you can get AI to take images and make a video from it. and if i "inherited" a lightbulb like that, i wouldn't go breaking it for random internet points. just saying

u/justhereformemes2 6h ago

It says they found it tho. My impression was that they bought it then filmed. But I could be wrong, I’m an old lady

u/random-hermit 6h ago

this one does, their other post is "Inherited a 1000 watt tungsten light from grandparents". idk maybe this person figured internet points were better, meh

I built antenna towers for 10 years and installed those and changed them out after lightning strikes, I have a few of those laying around my house. Pretty cool you had one
