The moral here, as you've ultimately concluded is exactly correct: everything is harmful when abused/used in excess.

The fact that so few people acknowledge this is just sad.

I think OI is encouraging smoking. They're putting out the message that rich people smoke. Lawsuit!

Except that you have absolutely no proof to back up your idea that pot is the culprit. Why would you assume that pot was the source of your father's depression?

Right. I just jumped in here and mentioned my father not because of the medical testing done to him that proved his usage was the cause, but because I just like to be social and tell tales.

@ Pilot

I'm well aware of the medical use for marijuana. But thats exactly the point isn't it? Medical use, not pleasure.

Rich · #94 08-22-2009, 02:58 PM

I smoke lots. Weed too. I'm smoking right now actually.

Weed?

For me it's both. It kills the pain in my back when it rears itself AND gives me a huge boner as it works its magic. I can't help that.

Why do you assume that because if a person can accept the legal sale of smokes, they are therefore in agreement with every other health concern on the market?

A super-sized meal won't slip me into depression, an extra treat after dinner won't give me brain damage, and a smoke during lunch-break won't lower my job performance.

Use these products, don't abuse them. Thats the rule here.

I feel I'll be repeating what other people say if I reply in a full and detailed manner. All I'll say is that my point is not to condone pot smoking, but to suggest that if you're so concerned about it, you should be even more concerned about the other health-destroying products we ingest. After all, the link between pot smoking and brain damage is still being researched and is not as strong a link as the other ones I mentioned. Also, the cost to the public health system of pot-related brain disfunction is microscopic compared to the cost of cancer, obesity, heart disease and diabetes.

Look, even if I fry my brain and turn into Tommy Chong, that's my decision. Don't take away my ability to ruin my life. I enjoy and employ that ability.

Dixanadu · #99 08-23-2009, 09:09 PM

Currently trying to quit. Fucking gay.

Dude, I totally have rebel-cred. I'll show you sometime. I've totally got it.

Leto · #**102** 08-23-2009, 09:37 PM

My rebel-cred is located somewhere betwixt my rectum and my sphincter.

It's finding it that is the true magic.

Dixanadu · #**103** 08-23-2009, 10:41 PM

This is the third thread I've seen this damn rebel-cred.

I have tryied before, and if there is a chance I sometimes light up, but I don't smoke everyday or so. I actually do it when I'm desperate or really dissapoint into something. It helps get through the pain in my opinion.

Josh · #**106** 08-27-2009, 08:56 AM

I don't smoke. I don't plan to anytime soon. I like to breath normally.

shaman · #**107** 08-27-2009, 09:18 AM

You can still draw breath when you smoke ... its after a few years of it resperatory problems start to set in..

Yes weed. Right then.

Pilot · #**111** 08-29-2009, 01:33 PM

On that subject, last night a friend was up visiting from Las Vegas so we got together... I craved a mojito, so off to Carson we went to pick up some mint and rum. My friend made up some syrup on the fly for the drinks and the whole thing was mighty good. What we ended up making was a mojito that was basically mint, 4 shots of dark rum straight and syrup for sweetness.

We then had some pot and watched some tube. The Outback Steakhouse commercial came on which inspired a continuous half hour of laughing and speaking to one another in fake Australian accents.

Fun fun.

joshkrz · #**112** 08-29-2009, 02:14 PM

I smoke around about 10 a day (the last time I checked was about half a year ago I lost track now.), I usually smoke Marlboro Reds but I also have a bag of Golden Virginia hand rolling tobacco for emergency's.

Weed is rare, because I just don't have the money. I would rather buy cigs than weed because weed is a gamble, your going to have a good time or a really shit time.

An alternative to smoking spliff is to drink spliff, much less harmful, well in theory anyway.

I find that if I'm anxious or unsettled in any way when I use it then the anxiety is just amplified. Plus, it's always better with someone else there just because.

I never smoke bud alone, and yes, if you feel crap it will defiantly make it worse but sometimes you don't notice your that bit anxious, then when you smoke your fucked.

I have only ever had one time when it was really bad but that's probably because I was half drunk half high. Some guy offered me some pills that chill you out, I forgotten the name. I didn't take them though.

Has anyone made themselves faint? Like, bend over and breath really hard then get picked up? So like, you deprive your brain of oxygen? I used to do that.

That's what inhalants do.

My friends and I used to do that in high school. Good times, good times.
