Here is a guide on how to be Super kind in every situation:
Be Generous: Generosity is the key to gaining friends and maintaining a positive reputation. Accommodate your friends by organizing drinks and snacks when hosting, and bring a fair amount of weed when it's your turn. The Golden Rule of life applies to weed as well: Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Choose your company well: If your smoke circle lacks kindness or takes advantage of your generosity, it's simple to find new smoke buddies at local dispensaries or cannabis clubs. There's no need to tolerate bad company or negative influences. Surround yourself with positive people who uplift you.
Don’t pressure anyone: Respecting others' choices is crucial when it comes to cannabis. Pressuring anyone to participate is uncool. Create an inclusive space where people can choose to join voluntarily. Don't waste good cannabis on someone who isn't interested yet.
Be Responsible: Contribute your fair share to the group by covering weed, food, or hosting expenses. If you can't afford it, communicate and offer non-financial assistance instead. Consider meeting at outdoor locations or cannabis-friendly venues like recreational cannabis coffee shops for enjoyable smoke sessions.

Say Exactly What You Brought: Being honest about your preference for mixing bud with tobacco, hashish, chamomile, or anything else is crucial. Before doing so, it's best to ask the group if they are comfortable with it to ensure a safe and respectful environment.
Treat Other’s Belongings Better Than Your Own: Indeed, it's better to value those who handle everything with care and caution, rather than individuals who recklessly wave their hands around with fire, leading to broken glass incidents. Once you experience the frustration of a broken item caused by a careless friend, you develop an appreciation for careful handling.
If you break something, it's important to replace it. If you cannot afford a direct replacement, offer compensation to the owner for their loss. Everyone has their own skills and abilities, so you can find other ways to make it up to them. Whether it's helping with tasks like moving, repainting their kitchen, or even pet-sitting (although breaking their glass may affect their trust in you with their pets), there are ways to contribute and show your willingness to make amends.
Pass around the packaging: Legitimately obtained and properly packaged weed reassures everyone about its safety. With various reputable companies competing for our legal purchases, the packaging becomes a way to reward good products and relax new smokers.
