Edibles — that is, tasty treats laced with marijuana — are not to be messed with. They get you higher than smoking a good old-fashioned joint, and if you’re Nick Jonas, they can have some seriously strange side effects.

Jonas learned that the, uh, hard way when he was scheduled to present at the Young Hollywood Awards in 2014. The singer was partying with some friends the night before his appearance when he tried his very first weed lollipop.

He didn’t notice too many side effects — that is, until the next morning, when he woke up and was somehow even higher than he’d been the night before.

Everything was suddenly in slow motion, and Jonas heard voices in his head in the shower. Then, just in time for his arrival on the red carpet, he experienced the weirdest side effect of them all: a dreaded NARB ("No Apparent Reason Boner”).

Jonas told Jimmy Fallon the whole embarrassing story on The Tonight Show last night (June 13). He also got to relive what happened when he actually got up on stage at the YHA.

Let this be a cautionary tale to anyone thinking about trying edibles for the first time the night before giving a big presentation in class (or on national television — whichever applies).
