Three easy ways to use the questions

Pick a number

Take turns choosing a number from 1 to 50. One person reads, and anyone can answer. Keep a note of your favorites if you want to return to them another evening.

Make a case, then switch sides

Choose a harmless debate. Explain your position, then try defending the opposite answer. Keep it about snacks, objects, or fictional situations. If it starts feeling personal, choose something else.

Give a short answer, then tell the story

Let everyone who wants to participate give a quick first answer. Then return to the story someone wants to explain. This gives quieter friends an opening without turning the evening into a timed competition.

The useful follow-up: Ask what made someone choose their answer. You do not need to move to the next number while the current one is still interesting.

Keep the conversation comfortable

Make passing normal. Skip surprise confessions, relationship tests, financial questions, and prompts designed to embarrass someone. Ask before recording or posting anyone's answers. A quiet friend does not need to be made the center of attention.

If cannabis is involved, arrange a sober ride or stay put. Cannabis can affect coordination and judgment, and combining it with alcohol can increase impairment, as explained in the CDC's guidance on cannabis and driving. Answering questions easily does not establish that someone is safe to drive.

If someone is using a hemp-derived edible

Read the THC amount per piece and per serving. For example, Green Nursery's Microdose THC Gummies are listed as containing 2 mg of hemp-derived Delta-9 THC per gummy. That is a label example, not a recommended serving for this activity or a promise about how someone will feel.

The CDC warns that edible effects can be delayed, creating a risk of taking too much before the effects become apparent. Do not tie another serving to a skipped question or a new round. Store THC products locked away from children and pets, separate from the evening's ordinary snacks.

Our guide to how long edibles take to kick in explains the difference between the first effects and the full experience.

If someone stops enjoying the evening

Pause the activity rather than searching for a question that will fix it. Ask whether they want quiet or support from a trusted sober person. If they feel too high, stop further consumption and read our guide to what to do when cannabis feels overwhelming.

For a suspected poisoning in the United States, call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222. Call 911 if someone collapses, has a seizure, has trouble breathing, or cannot be awakened.

Frequently asked questions

What are good questions to ask while high with friends?

Choose questions with a clear setup and plenty of possible answers. Imaginary situations, harmless preferences, and funny trade-offs work well for this format. Start with the first two categories, then move toward personal stories only if everyone wants to.

What are some deep questions to ask while high?

Try the thoughtful section for questions about creativity, traditions, comfort, and friendship. Give people room to disagree, and treat any big conclusion as something they can reconsider later. A conversation does not need to end with a decision.

Can two people use this list?

Yes. Alternate choosing questions, and both answer the same one before moving on. For would-you-rathers, explain your choice before hearing the other person's reasoning. Skip scoring unless both of you want a purely for-fun system.

Can I use these questions alone or while sober?

Yes. Use them as journal prompts, drawing ideas, or ordinary conversation starters. For a solo version, choose one question and write a short answer rather than trying to complete all 50. Cannabis is not required.

What should I avoid asking someone who is high?

Avoid pushing for secrets, confronting them about a relationship, testing their loyalty, or requesting important commitments. Do not use a person's answers to judge whether they are sober enough to drive. Respect a pass immediately, without asking them to explain it.

What if everyone disagrees about an answer?

With harmless opinions, disagreement is part of the activity. Let each person explain, then leave the result unresolved if necessary. If you stumble into a factual claim, check a reliable source instead of deciding it by majority vote.

Do I need a particular strain or hemp product for these questions?

No. This list does not require a product, strain, or THC serving. Do not take more in an attempt to become funnier, more talkative, or more interested in the conversation. Change the activity or take a break if it is not enjoyable.
