I quit pot, roller-skating, and karaoke all because of horrendous experiences. I was never going to do any of them again, but then a friend who thinks cannabis has its own section on the food pyramid asked if I wanted to get really stoned and do Skate-A-Roake.

Skate-A-Roake is when you roller-skate and sing karaoke at the same time. On the second, third, and fourth Wednesdays of the month at 8:30 p.m., Southgate Roller Rink and Baby Ketten Karaoke team up to give everybody this chance to have fun and embarrass themselves. It costs $10, there is a bar, and you have to be 21+.

But we weren’t drinking. Before we went in, we had a three-course weed experience of smoking high-school-style closet-grown pot, followed by vaping, and finished off with a chocolate edible. It was great, and I couldn’t remember why I stopped smoking pot in the first place.
