LIES! It is one of the greatest smells known to man, and it doesn't linger like tobacco smoke.

Anyhoo, I used to smoke pretty regularly, now only occasionally. I'm not as sensitive as I used to be, and these days whenever I have access, it tends to be good for a little while, then over the next couple of days (if I smoke continually), it just doesn't do anything.

It's a good release, but too much just leads me to feeling lazy, short of breath, and sometimes paranoid.

Dude, lighten up. It's not crystal meth or heroin. You need to be more open-minded to things that are pretty harmless and which you might actually enjoy.

yes...he's made such an incredible example of how to win at life already. I think mr tridentboy needs to broaden his horizons a bit, try something new for a change so he stops hating life.

Hell, not trying it could be a good indicator of why he "hates life," as he proclaims far too often in these forums.

It's probably that teen angst that happens when kids turn 14

Me.

I don't think it should be illegal though. I've been around potheads...they're less dangerous high than they are otherwise.

many who push for legalization agree with that, i think they should tax it, they would make billions

Tax it heavily... very heavily. Put it all into public education. I am down with that idea... Billions going into our education system. I would make it illegal until 21 like alcohol though. Only make it 18 when alcohol is 18.

But see, that would never happen. So I prefer it to be illegal. At least those fines go somewhere. I doubt it'd be taxed heavily/if-at-all... and people would just grow it at their home tax free.

This is pretty much how it needs to be done, though your predictions are off. No reason people would be growing it for free. You either:

-set limits to how much you can grow for home, personal use (just as is currently done with booze, you have annual limits to how many gallons you can produce before taxes and penalties apply)

-I think the age should be 21 regardless of the alcohol age. There are responsible users of marijuana and irresponsible users, just like with booze. But it's also quite powerful, and I don't think that on average, a teenager should be considered to have the maturity to treat it responsibly. Yeah, I know this sounds stupid, but there are reasons for age limits. You make it 18, it will make it all that much easier for 16, 14 year-olds to obtain it. Studies have shown that the younger you use MJ, the more it can impact your development. And yeah, your body is still developing at that age. Your neurons are still creating new pathways and such.

Again, I'm all for it, so long as they tax the bejesus out of it and approach it responsibly.

One thing that is important is that if it is legalized, it must be legalized EVERYWHERE. This would limit the influx of the irresponsible, worthless types flooding the new legal zone.

example: Amsterdam. what a fucked-up experiment that is. The Dutch are great people, but Holland being isolated with their uniquely open laws has attracted a rather filthy element that shows up to simple get fucked up, and not to enjoy the more positive benefits. Sucks, b/c it's a gorgeous city.

Son, what exactly is your major malfunction?

I'm clueless on how to "pick-up" chicks. Let's get a few things out there to let you see why...

1. Don't drink, don't smoke, don't do recreational drugs. I will not budge on this; do not ask.... why do you think this thread is so long? Mainly because you guys keep saying, "LOOSEN UP!" I refuse; stop saying it.
2. Don't drive... If I need to get somewhere I ask for a ride from my parents who I live with.
3. I'm 18 and in college... (Community college, didn't apply to others)
4. Don't have a job...
5. I sit at home, if not at school, and just screw around on the computer. I have no friends. (Except for on the computer and they live 200-10,000 miles away)

Lulz. I'm sorry TridenTboy, but I think you have trouble making friends because you're so closed-minded. Really, it won't hurt you to try some of this stuff, and it will help you relate to others more and have some fun. Weed is far from the only thing in my life: I play guitar, I write stories, I'm working on becoming trilingual.

Start thinking for yourself. Can you think of any good, valid reason not to try smoking/drinking in a good environment with friends? If you can't, and just think to yourself, "I've been taught it's wrong," then you've been brainwashed by anti-drug programs in school. Anytime you ask a high school teacher, "Did you try any of this stuff?", they'll just respond, "We're not here to talk about what I've done."

Yes but everything is SOMEWHAT harmful. Cannabis is much less carcinogenic than car exhaust for example, and far less poinsonous than potatoes.

You substitute the word 'need' for 'want'. The human body experiences pleasure by releasing chemicals into the brain which then reacts to them - they might be released just by reading a book or maybe by skydiving or having sex. Recreational drugs simply allow you to release these chemicals at will. What, in principle, is wrong with that?

Why not read a book or skydive or have sex instead of using something that is more toxic than the other things you have listed? (Assuming your parachute works when you are skydiving and there are no other... influences)

try this:

-listen to your favorite CD/band

-get high

-now listen to your favorite CD/band

DId it a few times in high school....I think only twice in college. No desire to do it now. And the smell is horrible. Plus, on certain projects I do at work, I have to take a surprise pee test...testing positive for the reefer would not be good. Once you get past age 20, doing it for recreational use is kind of stupid.

What a good formula! The first time I listened to "House of the Rising Sun" while high with the lights off was amazing.

And I get too scared to play FEAR/Dead Space because it seems so real.

This just in. Stephen Hawking smokes 1oz of weed every week.

SERIOUSLY.

My advanced physics prof was such a burnout. He actually taught us how to blow smoke rings in class because it showed how fluid velocity at the interface is zero. Smart dude.

One day in Organic, our worthless professor was out so his post doc taught the class. The entire lecture that day consisted of how to manufacture LSD and the various properties of shrooms.

So true.
The best essays I've ever written in my life I wrote while blazed.
I did proofread sober though

that's important. I find that writing while high is impossible. It's great for ideas and general brainstorming, but the cognitive abilities required for good writing simply don't work quite right with weed on the brain.

alcohol, on the other hand...

failure to understand people = failure to socialize. It's a common thing between buds, not a requirement to join the club.

No, it's like the fact that you would play video games with your friends. They smoke and go get some food or something. My friends and I actually smoke and play games all the time - makes 'em more fun, although we become terrible at them ;

With real stoners, it's not about "what they have," since they all have some weed and just share it.

Ridiculous. It gets better as you get older, and after 20, you can actually afford the good stuff. And by good stuff, I mean the stuff that justifies smoking it in the first place.

Also, the smell is divine. Using a vaporizer, the smell is hardly noticeable but the TASTE is incredible.

I highly, highly recommend using a vape for those who partake. It's easily the best way, and the 'cleanest' high you can get.

They just wanted to get high, I guess. :roll: I don't play an instrument, and really don't care to at this point in my life... (I live with my parents FFS, and we don't have even remotely sound resistance walls) What makes me interesting is what I am not, and not what I am.

Nope, I have found good enough reasons. It wasn't anti-drug programs, because I was never really taught any of that stuff. I came to the decisions on my own. I rather not drink because of relaxed inhibitions. I rather not smoke marijuana because it is smoking. I talked my high school teachers and they honestly would tell us everything they had done. All of my teachers would give you an answer to almost any question.

So, for the most part, my teachers were open doors.
