sacrifist Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 The decisions I make high have alway sbeen the ones I normally make, outside of giggling a little extra and buying food a little more impuslively. 586298499[/snapback] sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raum Posted July 30, 2005 Author Share Posted July 30, 2005 Yep, because of being high right now, I made the outrageous, anti-government, dangerous decisions to spend some time working out and hitting my punching bag, then cleaning my room for a while, doing the dishes, taking a shower, then going out to skate with some friends. All after I make a new wallpaper in Photoshop. I never would of thought to do these things sober, pfft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m!ke Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Salvia is hardcore! I thought it was cool at first but from being around too many people with bad trips it just kinda puts me off now. I think if anything alcohol is the gateway drug since its legal. Yeah pot should be legal. I view it on the same level as alcohol. you could say alcohol is addictive too.

STV Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 not sure what your trying to prove, but i work 40 hours a week, own three cars, a house, have a wife, and a 2 year old, and im 28.. Wasted 2 years of my life because of cocaine (years 22 - 24). And it wasnt a matter of not focusing, its called being addicted, i was able to go cold turkey when i realized how ****ty my life had become. Ya cocaine isnt pot, but since i didnt like that high i went to something else, which is what most people with friends that do drugs will do as well. I find it very amusing how you "yes voters" defend your bad habits, i remember when i acted that way too, defending it and praising it as if i was doing something good in my life lol. You need to realize, especially the ones doing more then just pot, that you dont think straight when your on drugs 586298470[/snapback] sure STV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted July 30, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 30, 2005 Abusing any drug is bad. Marijuana is bad. It changes a persons behaviour. I had a friend that tried it and then got addicted to it. The way he talked, walked, and even the way he looked at people changed. People who abuse it (potheads) love to say good things about weed when in reality there is nothing good about it, other than it's medical value for certain conditions. Weed is in fact an entry drug. Once you don't get "high" from it you move on to another drug, and another, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always get high from it, Mr. Misinformed, the duration of the high just goes down the more often you smoke it. You can't just use blanket descriptions like that, saying weed is an entry drug, when that doesn't hold true for even half it's users. At least in my experiences, the vast majority of people I know that smoke bud, only smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurë Veteran Posted July 30, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 30, 2005 (edited) I think it should be legalised, and so should mushrooms, which our a*sehole British government have just outlawed (they rushed it through as well, so that law is full of loop holes). Alcohol and tobacco smoking are just as bad for people, if not worse. Whether something is addictive is a poor way to decide whether it should be legal. Alcohol is very addictive, and physically as well as mentally. Tobacco is more addictive than heroin. Many medical drugs are addictive. Weed is only psychologically addictive and I think many cigarette smokers will find the tobacco in spliffs perhaps has the effect of easing that (nicotine) craving and confusing them. As for the negative effects on health and mental function, these are real and can be severe. I have seen people who have done too much weed and it ain't pretty. However, alcoholism is just as bad, if not worse, and many medical drugs are quite capable of killing you (unlike weed). Also, driving while stoned is an extremely arrogant, selfish and stupid thing to do. But so is driving drunk or under the influence of some medications. In moderation, ie no more than once a month, or a few times close together followed by a very long break, I think it does no more harm than a night out drinking and smoking. As for arguing it is an entry drug, it is only because if you are going to do drugs, it is likely to be the first drug you try. It is more readily available than most drugs. It's cheaper than drinking and the high isn't as heavy and long lasting as say ecstasy or a mushroom or LSD trip. Perfect for beginner druggies. Perfect for casual users who won't do other stuff. Also, I know someone who has done poppers, ketamine, ecstasy etc etc but not weed because he doesn't like smoking.

I clean my room of my own desire, not because osmeone tells me to. Do my laundry, pay for my food, pay for my clothes, etc. I break my skateboard or want a new waterpipe, it comes out of my pocket. I think being capable of washing dishes for 8 hours, then skating for 3 more, then doing the same thing next day, every week, disqualifies me for being a lazy person. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klevo Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Pot is great and should be legalized. But as with everything dont over-use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_skrilla Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 It should be legal if alcohol is legal... There are many many 1000's of people who die every year from alcohol overdose, liver disease from alcohol, accidents related to alcohol, and fights or whatnot related to alcohol.... It is not possible to OD and die on pot. The worst thing is that you pass the f--k out. The side effects are that there is short term memory loss ... well alcohol will give you some damn nice short term memory loss too. I don't see how it is rational to have pot illegal but alcohol legal. It's f--king rediculus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquid Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I have never tried it, and never will, but I don't see why would should make natural things illegal. Its just stupid. Its just some leaves crushed an wrapped up. I think cigarettes should be illegal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theyarecomingforyou Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 No. I've seen what it does to people and it's not good. :no: It's just the latest "trendy" thing to do... rather pathetic, imo.

fevoldj2 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Then ask yourself; would you be using these drugs if you were allowed to or do you want to do it just because you can't? I don't do drugs and I'm fine. I can also type better than most people on the board. I don't think you need drugs to be creative, that's just a lame excuse in my opinion. There are better things you can do in your free time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why must my liberty and pursuite of happiness be denied when it does it imbibe upon the lives or liberties of others. Does my smoking pot derail your pursuit of happiness?
