My mom used to tell me how she freaked out the one time she tried it... warning me off the stuff... looking right at me as I'm super stoned...

Mom: "Why are your eyes so red..?"
Me: "I'm just tired mom... it's been a long day.."
Mom: "Oh...OK.. you better get some sleep.."
Me: "Thanks mom... Love you..!!"
