Stoner Personas: Which One Are You Really?

We were four of us on the terrace, soft music in the background, someone had lit up a eucalyptus-scented candle for vibes, and the sky was doing its whole “infinite universe” thing.
The greens were going around, snacks were being raided, and somewhere between someone attempting to roll a joint on a flip-flop and another trying to explain how pigeons are actually
government drones, it hit me.

Every group has types. Stoner types.

One friend started deep-diving into how capitalism is the real drug. Another just lay flat on the bean bag, unmoving except for the occasional “mmm” when handed chips. Someone else was on the speaker, shuffling between jungle lo-fi and trap beats and making us listen to intros we didn't ask for. And me? I was checking if everyone had water, snacks, and good emotional footing.

It was like we had all slipped into character. Unplanned. Unapologetic. And kind of iconic. So here it is. A light-hearted roll call of the stoners I’ve known, loved, and occasionally become. You might spot yourself in one, or find flashes of you in all of them. Either way, consider this a little love letter to the sesh crew.

1. The Philosopher
One puff in and they’re suddenly quoting Rumi or wondering if dolphins have souls. Conversations go from “pass the lighter” to “do you think free will is a scam” in under five
minutes.

You’re not always sure where it’s headed, but it’s somehow soothing. Like a TED Talk, but with less capitalism and more Cheetos.

2. The Couchlock Zombie
This person becomes one with the chair, the cushion, the floor. Gravity wins. The only movement is a slow head turn if there’s a snack involved. Otherwise, statue mode.

You might poke them to check if they’re still alive. They’ll blink. You’re reassured.

3. The DJ / AUX Hogger
They take over the music and the mood. You’re mid-conversation and suddenly it’s “Wait, you need to hear this drop.” It’s always followed by a track that sounds like someone is vacuuming underwater.

They’ll make you listen to that long ambient intro from Prateek Kuhad’s unreleased SoundCloud demo, then switch to AP Dhillon at full volume, only to suddenly pause it and play Zinda from Bhaag Milkha Bhaag like it’s a spiritual awakening.

But they mean well. And when they hit the right groove, the whole sesh syncs.

4. The Mother Hen
They came prepared. Grinder, papers, filters, a backup lighter, tissues, and probably homemade snacks. They’ll check in mid-sesh like, “You okay? Need water? Emotional clarity?”

They’re the reason everyone has a good time and lives to tell the tale.

5. The Storyteller
Ask them how their day was and buckle up. You’re getting the full saga. There’s drama,suspense, flashbacks, and plot twists involving autorickshaw drivers and forgotten tiffins.

By the end, you’re emotionally invested in a stranger’s dog.

6. The Overthinker
You’ll spot them spiraling silently. One minute they’re vibing, next they’re squinting like, “Did I leave the gas on? Do my friends even like me?” You’ll find them sitting very still, questioning reality.

Offer a snack. It usually resets the system.(Speaking from personal experience.)

7. The “I’m Not High” High Person
They’ll swear they don’t feel it yet. Meanwhile, they’re eating dry cereal straight from the box and talking to the ceiling fan.
They’re not fooling anyone, but we let them have their little delusion. Repeat after me, “delulu is the…solulu”

8. The Functioning Pro
Fully high, yet somehow booking cabs, making playlists, cooking maggi, and remembering their laptop password. They’re running on leafy fuel and you’re lowkey impressed.

They’re the ones who’ll end the sesh and still go out and file their taxes. LOL, and look at us not being able to file taxes even sober!

9. The One Who Vanishes
One minute they’re laughing, next minute they’re gone. No warning. No text. They reappear with a popsicle and zero explanation, like nothing happened.

You learn to stop asking questions. It’s just part of the lore.

10. The Snack Summoner
You don’t know where it came from, but they’ve conjured a full feast. Someone says “I’m kinda hungry” and they produce nachos, brownies, banana chips, and a side of emotional support.

You start to wonder if they have a pantry in their backpack.

So… which one are you?

I mean, you already know, right? Maybe you’re the chill zombie with the snack magic. Or the storyteller who loops back three times and still forgets the ending. Maybe you start off as a DJ and slowly morph into the couch.

Me? I’m Mother Hen meets Overthinker. I’ll roll you the smoothest cone, hand you a drink, and then panic about whether I accidentally left the door unlocked. While also checking if everyone has socks, because cold feet ruin vibes.

So next time you’re passing it around and feeling yourself slip into your version of mother hen or Dj or snack-summoner mode, just smile and know you’re part of the greater stoner multiverse.
One joint, many selves.

If this post made you feel seen, confused, or slightly hungry… congrats. You’re in the club.
