There are a bunch of brands but I found Mary's Medicinals to work the best. 

I'm a skeptical dude. If something doesn't work, I won't lie about it. Like I had tried patches before for neck pain and such, and there wasn't a noticeable effect. But Holy shit they work for that foot problem.

The big question is: do they get you high? Depends. Weed is weird. I have a very low edible tolerance despite having a huge smoking tolerance. The patches never got me high. But I know a guy who could do more dabs than me and still go to work would buy the Sativa THC patches all the time because he was getting lit. So weird.

There are THC Sativa and THC Indica, which are most likely to get you high. THC:CBD worked best for my foot. There is CBD (still has a trace of THC in it for the entourage effect), CBN for sleep, CBG for pain and tumor/fungal reduction, and THC-A (which are the non-acfivated versions of THC. So those that are afraid to try them will almost positively NOT get high from these.) However some products that are mostly CBD, like certain tinctures, can eventually turn into THC after being activated by heat and time. 

Cannabinol, CBN, is actually "old" THC. It is only 10% as psychoactive but way more drowsy, so they work for insomnia. Last night I had a THC/CBD/CBN Blueberry Lemon drink. Worked well. 

Do they even acknowledge that he isn't there?

I wish people with big egos were better at making graceful exits from the entertainment industry.

Fuck...I don't know, man. I'm watching this Prom reunion deal, and it's so difficult to see them perform. Even normal things like Chicken Huntin' and Hokus Pokus...it's like J is forgetting EVERYTHING.

Yeah man I was expecting way more energy to be coming off the stage.

One thing die-hard ninjas have learned over the years is J just does not give a shit if it's a small crowd.

I attended a tour stop here in Canada where only around 150 people showed and ICP performed the shortest full-priced concert I've ever seen, it was maybe 40 minutes. They cut a bunch of songs and barely threw any Faygo.

Also, Shaggy has gotten almost as fat as J now which has lowered the energy level on stage even further.

Here's a few clips-

...Come back for GOTJ 2022 and freak that bitch 100%

-This ninja's opinion   

Word.

Let's say they average maybe 200 shows a year... whether they be concerts, Gathering obligations with seminars and such, wrestling, filming stuff for the internet etc... times 30 years... something like 6000 performances, where you have to at least somewhat be in character to entertain...

Man, that's a long time to be doing anything! Whether it's working in a factory or being a fucking port star, I'm sure the magic has faded a bit. The thrill. Or not, what the fuck do I know? I have a friend who owns his own fire alarm business and loves work more than anything. But I think it's safe to assume that J may be prescribed the wrong stuff, or battling the side effects of something, or simply going through changes. We all do. 

Agreed about the year off and GOTJ 2022. Back in Nelson Ledges.

Maybe give it a year and then make that choice if you even want to do this anymore. Shit they could just release little albums here and there and just do GOTJ and I'd be happy. They could make a living off their merch forever.

Here's the full show.  J totally forget the entire first verse of "The Neden Game." It's at 27:37.  He has no idea what the words are.

Being a fuck up might be cute when you are in your 20s, but Violent J is 50 now, and it's no longer cute.  It's sad.  You're charging people $66.50 for a livestream and he can't even show up to half of them, and the people in attendance for this show paid hundreds of bucks.  You need to give them their money's worth.  You need to rehearse and put in the effort.  Everybody cutting him slack is just enabling this behavior.  I've been down since 95 and while there has always been drama in some shape or form, I think performance wise they are definitely at their lowest.  I really hope he gets better.  Maybe it's not drugs, maybe it's a mental thing, but regardless, he shouldn't be performing until he's 100% and motivated to do it.  

I paid for the October and December livestreams. I really enjoyed October but December was a little lacking and J missed a few.  I didn't see the effort being put into it as much so I skipped February and April, and I'm glad I did.  They lost me.  I want to pay them, I want to give them my money, but they need to earn it now.  

Saying Violent J is just getting older doesn't fly with me.  Alice Cooper is 73 and still tours every year and puts on great shows (before Covid).  Kiss is still wearing big outfits and doing tours in their 70s.  Those are both huge productions.  Bob Seger was doing shows at 75.  None of those artists ever really stopped.  There's a ton of bands and singers that have 40+ year careers.  Metallica is in their 50s and before Covid, they were still performing every year and sounded amazing, and they put on a way more aggressive and complicated show musically than ICP, because they rehearse heavily.  They're pros.  Shaggy is in his late 40s and Violent J is 50.  If they're already this beat up and tired from just walking back and forth on a stage and throwing Faygo, then I don't see this lasting too much longer.
