It’s a big deal to decide on the things to do while high with friends or on your own. You take a hit and go with the flow, but what’s next? Should you meditate? Probably. Clean the room? Go ahead. Head off to your favorite store and add weird clothes to your cart? If you feel good about it.
But what if we tell you there are more fun things to do while high? Pick any idea for the upcoming night, or try them all. It’s up to you!
1. Play a board or card game
Board games are surprisingly inclusive things to do while high. They are fun when you are a kid and entertaining enough when you are a teenager. And they are even more enjoyable if you are a grown-up who has just got buzzed with friends and is now ready to take out that Dune: Imperium box.
Choose simple board games that don’t require extra skills and don’t take hours to learn the rules unless you want to get involved in a group anxiety session. Try Uno, Monopoly (nothing’s better than a bit of friendly betrayal when you are high), Alias (if you are not too stoned to talk), or Jenga (it’s not going to work, but it will be hilarious).
2. Channel your inner Picasso
We know it may sound weird. But in reality, it is believed that weed is excellent for waking up the creative parts of your mind. In other words, you can experience the feeling of getting a superpower and make use of it while stoned alone or with friends. Prepare some paints, brushes, and painting paper, and see where your art takes you.
You can either think up a theme and arrange things for each group member to paint their own picture or put a huge piece of drawing paper on the floor and create your masterpiece together. It can be a real bonding experience that will likely end up with all of you covered with paint and laughing out loud.
3. Go to the movies
This might be one of the hardest activities to do while high. But if you are in the mood to go out without fiddling around across the block, going to a movie theater is an option.
Watching movies on the big screen while being blazed is an exciting experience as things get more immersive. You can share this experience with your buddies, which makes it fun for everyone. Some of you may get anxious about being in public or have goosebumps due to the loud sounds. Either scenario is better than being kicked out of a movie theater for laughing too hard.
4. Watch a movie at home
If going out to the movies is not an option, you can binge-watch it at home with friends. It’s fun to watch something together while eating a ton of popcorn (make sure you have prepared enough because you’ll eat a lot). You can go for some random stuff on Netflix or opt for one of the stoner movies recommended by Rotten Tomatoes:
-
Dazed and Confused
-
Superbad
-
This Is the End
-
Ted
-
Bad Trip
If you are in the “I don’t want to decide, I just want to laugh” mood, classic cartoons like Rick and Morty or Family Guy will do the trick.
5. Cook something
Smoking weed is bound up with eating. And it could be the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of the activities to do while high. Of course, you can always order pizza, but why not cook it up? It may be a sandwich, hearty pasta, or even a cake if you are ready to wait while it’s in the oven.
Brace yourself for the fastest cooking of your life. Knives are flashing when everyone’s high and hungry. With that in mind, be careful with your kitchen utensils to prevent them from becoming weapons.
6. Plan a group trip
During every party, there is a moment when someone says, “Let’s go there together.” This moment can be a blast when you are high. Organize a stoned trip-planning session and see how it plays out. Start with choosing a destination, comparing routes, listing possible en-route activities, calculating a budget, and so on.
This is one of the best things to do when high, as planning a journey is likely to be way less stressful than if you were sober. The only caveat is that this trip may never happen. But who cares if you are having fun?
7. Go on a hike
Instead of just planning a trip and thinking about what to do while high, you can actually head out into the wild. If there are many hiking places in your area, they can be turned into once-in-a-lifetime spots for stoned hikers.
Grab a blanket and watch a sunset, make a bonfire, sing your favorite songs, or tell scary stories. These things feel better when you are in the wild (and tripping).
8. Play a video game
This may sound like an activity for two people, but how about holding a video game competition? Choose a game, draw a leaderboard, team up, and plunge into high action.
Encourage the whole group to root for those who are playing and make sure there is a prize for the Stoned King\Queen of Games (preferably something they can eat).
9. Talk to your best friend
Hectic and entertaining activities are great, but nothing is more bonding than a meaningful conversation. Simply talking may not be the most exciting activity to do while high. But when weed unlocks hidden emotions, thoughts, and memories, you can’t help but release them.
Make yourself comfortable and start talking. You can say whatever is on your mind or prepare the questions in advance. Here are several examples of the best conversation starters:
-
“If you could choose any superpower, what would it be?”
-
“What was the craziest thing you’ve done in your life?“
-
“If you had $5 million, what would you do with the money?“
This list can be extended with any questions you can think of. Just make sure there are no sticking points. You are here to have a great time or bond, not argue.
10. Scroll through a social media app
Things to do while high don’t have to be useful, meaning that you and your friends can do just fine by sitting and staring at the screens. Watch Instagram videos, check out photos, find out what other people have been doing today, or just google prank videos to laugh at.
The best advice you could receive? Grab food. One hand will scroll the feed while another will feed you.
