I just want to walk into a store, buy weed and walk out. Same as alcohol or cigarettes.

This being Germany, I expect to have to spend weeks joining the waiting lists of overbooked clubs, hoping that one of them has a free slot. Then more forms, sent by post because email is evil, then finally I can buy weed 3 months down the road.

If you live in Germany for a while, you learn that you never get anything without a fight here. It's always tedious.
