LTX Loner Meetup!! (Traveling alone and looking for chill people to hang with at LTX)

DeBouncyBahl

I'll be going to LTX for the first time this year and id love to meet / talk with some of you before I get there. I'd hate to get there and go from booth to booth alone with no one to enjoy it with like the sad loner I am back home :D. So hit me up you want to meet up at LTX. This community seems super cool and I'd love to meet some of you. I'm also open to carpooling or just traveling together since my best option right now is a 27 hour train/bus ride cause I'm broke. As far as general age/location, I'm a freshman at Foothill Community College, in California.

Also, I know this is super early, but it's my best bet at meeting people as hyped for LTX as I am.

I'm trying to come in from NYC so can't carpool, but I'd be happy to have a walk around buddy! I won't know for sure if I'm going until tickets go on sale.

Is it plugged in? Is it turned on? Is it plugged in and turned on?

I'm hopefully traveling out of Riverside/Temecula area to go, I would most likely drive up thursday/friday and drive back monday/tuesday. I'm still waiting to hear back from work to hear if I can take those days off, but if you're looking for a carpool, I'd be down to drive up. Even if other people want to get in on this traveling along my route (through LA, through San Francisco, etc). 

Just waiting on work to give me the okay. :D

LTX first timer here as well, be driving up from the Seattle area. I'm planning on a day at LTX and then a day around Whistler as well. I'm one of the 3% (I think Linus said in this 10-year stream that only 3% women sub to the channel lol) I'll be recognizable because I'm considering making myself an "AMD Outside" t shirt lmao

Did he give an age breakdown? I'd bet 90% are under 21 ? At least if the forum's anything to go by.

Lol right I've been wanting to ask him about that statistic as well "how many are between the ages of 30-35? And how many of those are women?" I'm probably at 1% lol

My impression from last year was that women were more than 1% but less than 20%. No idea how many were enthusiasts or plus one's. You can get a bit of an idea from looking at the galley. Also, I'm in my 60's and there were enough over 21 that I didn't feel out of place. For me the tough part was being solo, since there were a lot of lines which would have been easier to deal with if I had someone to chat with.

Oh hell no. I'd say much lower than that! I'd be shocked if it were half a percent! Then again, I've been surprised before, so who knows.

If it's still illegal wherever you actually live then it's not really worth it.

As I said, sinc LTT 2019 is in Canada, while you are vacationing here, you would be legally allowed to consume.

 

now, if your home location has it's own laws that state "if you consume while abroad you still violate the law" thats one thing. And I can't speak for many states. But the legalization of Cannabis is Canada wide.

That's literally what I said..."where you actually live" meaning your local laws for everyone not from Canada.

Right, but the way you stated it makes it sound like if you do something in Canada, that is illegal in Florida, that Florida will bust you for it.

 

That's typically not the case, and depending on scale of the crime involved.

 

For example, while it might be illegal in Florida to consume Cannabis in Florida, florida cannot criminally prosecute you for smoking Cannabis while in Canada, since you performed an act that was legal in the location.

 

obviously there are other factors, depending on extradition treaties and scale of the criminal act. But it's generally not a concern. 

 

Though, just want to caveat, the TSA/FEds can be dicks about it.

Yeah, if you get high in Canada and then go back into the US and do something that makes you have to take a drug test you'll get busted for the consumption of the drug if it's still in your system. Same goes for getiing a new job that drug tests all new hires, they won't care that it was legal where you did it at the time.

Ah, I see what you're refering to now.

 

Yeah, Cannabis can stay in the blood system for up to 45 days (Depending on personal factors). if your employment can do random spot checks, that would be a concern.

 

I often forget how backwards some of those regulations are down south. Random drug tests just aren't a thing up here and can't be used as barrier fo employment.
