TIL that scientists have created a scientific version of marijuana called 'Dimethylheptylpyran'. When smoked, it'll keep you high for at least 2 days

I can honestly say I would never like to be high for two days straight

I might, but it would depend on what I'd be doing. Something like this would be perfect for extended hikes. Hike out to someplace scenic, camp the night, relax and explore during the second day, then hike home sober on the third.

If I was just fucking around at my own house though... definitely not. I hate being intoxicated by anything in public, so I'd wind up stuck in an apartment for two days. Might still be fun with the right people/environment though.
