just smoke with him once

odds are you'll find it's no big deal OR you will like it and have a bf who can get you both crunk all the time

"I've always compared it to harder drugs like it's the same thing addiction wise"

this was the main goal of the just say no campaign
it was to make people think that cocaine was just as bad as pot

it was to make you think that any and every drug would carry serious addiction

i really enjoy smoking / like some people come home from work and have a beer
or a glass of wine to kick back and relax after a long day......i prefer to smoke a bowl

like ujswt said, it is really easy to stop smoking pot
but i cant get past 4 cigs a day to save my soul

7/25/2006 10:55:40 PM

You're absolutely right gunzz. I also grew up with hellfire and damnation parents on the subject. Pair that with not understanding what it is to begin with and having never been around it, and it's easy to assume.

7/25/2006 10:58:13 PM

Question: What if we were together and somehow he got busted for having it in his possession. Could I get busted too even if I have nothing to do with it?

7/25/2006 10:59:10 PM

I def agree that you should smoke with him, just make sure it isnt schwag..it should at least look like this


(Raleigh beast)

And just hang out and watch a movie...but good high sex is fun too...I just wish I didnt have to hide it from my X

Well unless your bf threw it all on you then he would soley take the charge that is unless you had a bag on you.

i guess one of the reasons i don't smoke anymore is that it seems so highschoolish

sitting around a circle with a bong, coughing, and getting all red-eyed doesn't have the same level of refinement as drinking a cocktail

i don't hate on anyone that does, but when i go to a party and people are sitting around and getting stoned i kinda wonder why they haven't moved on

7/25/2006 11:00:57 PM

I tried it twice, was told I was doing it right, and didn't feel a thing. Two separate cities and people. Is it possible it just doens't work on me? Ha. I feel like such a n00b!

7/25/2006 11:01:15 PM

G - that's exactly why I flipped out. I thought he was regressing and was making some statement about not wanting to grow up. I'm trying to get somewhere, not bring along some duders scared of life.

7/25/2006 11:02:10 PM

you probably weren't inhaling it correctly

try eating it brownies

naw, see the thing is in Cali everybody smokes and drinks. I kinda just gave up on the smoking thing, even though i like it, because of the stigma associated with being a stoner. i don't like to hide the fact that i drink, so hiding the fact that i smoked would make me feel like a hypocrite. once in a blue moon, i'll blaze it up with some friends to chill out and laugh, but i just don't feel comfortable going to parties and getting high with a bunch of strangers.

its not possible that it doesnt work on you, you were probably just smoking shitty weed.

and UjustWait I def see what you are talking about but most of the guys I know that smoke in Raleigh are 25+ and we dont even own a bong. Usually we just sat around hit the bub and listen to some tunes or go out.

is that there is always something danker around the corner

i take your word for it and am jealous

7/26/2006 12:05:18 AM

Don't be jealous. It's decent, but nothing to write home about.

When you've cut back as far as I have though, most anything will do the trick.

Weed is one of those things/drugs that can go either way. If you can handle your shit you can smoke, enjoy it, and really not be affected by it. If not then you become a stoner that is useless sitting around burnt out with no drive to do anything. Smoking is great to relax, and heightens certain experiences such as food. Food taste way better when high, movies are better, sex, etc...

and that is the problem with closed minded individuals like yourself
all drugs are not bad if used in moderation and the user respects the danges of using the drug.

quagmire, did you by chance read the recent study on mushrooms?
i think you will find it enlightening on the positive affects of using a hallucinogenic

7/26/2006 10:51:26 AM

i'm close-minded because i find pleasure in life instead of relying drugs that alter my state of mind? this makes me intelligent instead of stupid

it's not the act of using the drug (any drug) that makes me think you people are pathetic, it's the very fact that you feel the need and/or desire to use a mind-altering substance for pleasure...doesn't matter whether it's smoking pot or shooting up heroin or drinking until you can barely stand...these actions make a person pathetic

people who utilize drugs are nothing but lazy...instead of actually DOING something that requires physical and/or mental activity, they choose to let an external substance do it for them...in no way does this improve who you are...you do not learn anything, you do not mature, you do not accomplish anything of any significance...at least watching television i can LEARN something

I think it's interesting that you say "drinking until you can barely stand." So drinking a little is alright by you? I wonder where you got that idea... You've let society make your choice for you when it comes to what is okay and not okay; you're about the same as a middle-schooler, believing it's cool to smoke cigarettes because his peers tell him it is.

Also, people have been attempting to alter their consciousness since the start of humanity. This notion that those people cannot contribute to the world in a valuable way is silly and ultimately does the world a disservice--do you really wanna "take back" all the things drug users (casual and otherwise) have contributed to society?

after that experience....i had a greater appreciation for my life and my surroundings.
i learned to find beauty in the most unexpected places....as a matter of fact, everything was beautiful.

the first time i did E was almost the same soul changing experience......its not all about getting fucked it, its taking your mind to a higher state / i have learned things about myself that i would never had know if not for LSD, Mescaline and Shrooms.

i'm betting that there are probably one or two people that i know who i would be surprised at...that doesn't change the fact that doing a drug is pathetic and i would happily tell them that

additionally, i don't need commercials to make up my mind for me...i realize those commercials skew people's perceptions...i imagine they put them on there because the types of people who smoke in the first place are obviously too dumb to make mature decisions for themselves...the goal of the commercials is to make the decision for them by presenting the worst-case scenario and trying to scare them out of it

in response to these two statements, i refer you to this quote from the harvard website (http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/alcohol.html):

Quote :

" Moderate drinking seems to be good for the heart and circulatory system, and probably protects against type 2 diabetes and gallstones."

yes, drinking a little is alright by me because alcohol, by its very nature, is beneficial to your health...drinking in excess is just as dumb as smoking pot, as it negates any and all possible health benefits...society did not make this choice for me

additionally, let me point out that i have never been drunk and have no intention of ever doing so as i don't see the point...you're welcome to call me a hypocrite, but you'd be wrong

here are my views...

1- weed isnt a drug, i consider stuff like cocaine or heroin drugs, that hardcore shit
2- weed is ten thousand times better than alcohol
3- alcohol kills way more people than weed
4- weed could be a good way for the government to make some $$

7/26/2006 11:48:12 AM

I was always apprehensive about smoking for years. It scared me. Then I finally tried it. It was incredible. I don't consider myself a pothead, but I've met a lot of cool people throughout my years and the only thing we had in common was smoking. It relaxes me. My grades are better when I smoke more because I can settle down and relax and chill the fuck out in order o get some productive things done.

Hard drugs (i.e. coke) are fucking stupid, in my opinion, but I don't see anything wrong with smoking. I'd rather smoke than drink. My parents even told me they'd rather me smoke then drink because when you're high you can still at least function.

Don't knock it till you try it. If you've never been drunk or high, and if neither poses a huge health risk if only done once, then why don't you try it before you judge everyone who does?

i have SERIOUSLY debated this for many years...i've seen so many people i once called friends screw up their lives that it's kept me from even wanting to try it...i realize, though, that as i've never experienced it, my opinion is less valid (but my views on how pathetic drug use is are no less valid than anyone else's views on how useful it is)...only if i began to say that doing drugs wasn't fun would my viewpoint be invalid as i've never done them
