demise of High Times magazine
Forums:
Essential reading in high school when it came out, dorm room staple inthe late 70s, outgrew it in the 80s, surprised when I saw it in airports in the 90s, occasionally ran across it in my stoner-godchild's room in the 2000s, forgot about it over the past 10 years.
Some dickhead entrepreneur bought it and ran it into the ground.

Note to young business owners
Note to young business owners: When you hear the words "lifestyle," "strategic optimization" and "market capitalization" mentioned by a "branding consultant" at a "retreat" -- run the other way (first make sure you still have your wallet).

I always liked the "price guide" showing what weed and hash was going for in different parts of the country.
But yeah, with much of the country legal these days and cannabis going all Wall Street, things like High Times and the whole weed "counterculture" are pretty much a relic these days. Not a good time for print journalism in general either.

It's been ages since I read High Times, but I'll miss knowing it's out there all the same.
> I always liked the "price guide"
That was usually one of the first things I looked at. The Trans-High Market Quotations.

this country is fucked up my latest email from the traitor it's right dumpers;
"The Radical Left hates you, long_live_the_dead
FOUR YEARS AGO, Hillary called you DEPLORABLE.
Then, Joe Biden said we aren’t good people.
NOW, Nancy is calling you a DOMESTIC ENEMY.
That’s what the Liberal Elites think of us. They hate everything we stand for and they’ll do whatever it takes to BRING US DOWN.
You proved them all wrong in 2016, and now I need you to do it again on November 3rd.
I’m turning to my strongest defenders, like YOU, to step up and FIGHT BACK against the Radical Left.
TRAITORist ASSHOLE IDIOTS. (YES you TOO U KNOW WHO) with the several weeks vacation

I only bought it for the articles......
Seriously though, I thought the Price Guide was one of the best things it had going for it.
It was funny when Rochester made it in there.
