People, People. I'm done argueing the cannabis thing. Some people don't like it, there totaly against it. Great! But don't call the people who do it idiots.. or stupid.. or so on and so fourth. State your views on this issue WITHOUT calling anyone stupid or whatever. Don't call the people who disagree with your drug usage names either. We all have differn't views on things, no need for the name calling. Sitting here calling eachother morons isn't doing a damned thing! Is it changing anyones views by calling eachother morons? Is it? NOPE! I smoke it. I have and will for the time being. Does it rule my life? No. Does it waste money? Yes. Am I going to become some homeless bum? No. Am I addicted? No. I just went a week or two without any. I needed money for other things for that time. Some people, yes, It totaly screws up there lives, but there the type of people who touch anything and will screw up. There are people who can maintain without a problem and become sucessful while they smoked pot. Same thing happens with alcohol, cocain, herion, money. Can happen with anything(You know what I mean) We can sit here all day and go.. My cousin smoked pot for 50 years and he is rich now! or my cousin smoked a joint and is now in prison for theft. You see what I mean? So... People of A2A, Calm down. Please.Plain and Simple: I smoke weed, not changing my views. You don't like weed, I'm not changing your views. -FaBMX

Top 5 Things To Do When Stoned
-
First off, this kind of bugged me. Daimon, have you ever gotten stoned before? I would think not because you do not seem to understand that when you smoke pot you get a "little" more than just a buzz. Usually they are intense joyous experiences that usually change/heal me mentally every time. This is similar to mushroom experiences however marijuana is the subject at hand.Do you think that the only thing I am doing is deciding to hurt my body? If you do, then you aren't very smart. I am simply choosing to take minor bodily harm (nothing serious I might add) in exchange for heightened mood, better personality, and better overall person. Believe me I am a MUCH better person ever since I started smoking weed.You people who want people to die because they smoke are so funny. Ironically you need to smoke a bowl to calm your frustration, however that is all your frustration is, so you will simply always be frustrated your whole life believing weed is something so bad for you.Funny how the angry ones who want to bite everyones heads off are the ones opposed to weed.Hmm.

Yes, I have tried marijuana before. Not because it was a choice I made, but because of peer pressure, and I admit that it was a poor choice. Marijuana did not give me an "intense" pleasurable experience, and it didn't heighten my mood, personality, etc. The harmful effects of marijuana are plenty. Its effects are similar to that of smoking. Now when I say this, I am not saying that it does the same thing, but that it happens gradually. You may not notice detrimental effects now, but in the future there is a high possibility that you can. You may never have any side effects, but then again even if you smoke there is always the chance that you'll never get and smoke related diseases either.In reply to:You people who want people to die because they smoke are so funny.I would never wish for anyone to die, regardless of the poor choices they make. However, I would like to educate as many people as possible that marijuana is a very dangerous substance, which you yourself cannot acknowledge. You say it isn't bad for you, but you don't realize, or should I say you don't want to come to that realization that marijuana is bad for you.I'm not frustrated in the least bit. As a matter of fact, if you want to ruin your life by smoking marijuana and believing that it has rejuvenating effects, by all means do so. I just would like to educate those other people that visit this thread all of a sudden thinking marijuana is ok because they've seen a thread about it on the afraidtoask.com bulletin board.And lastly, of course the angry ones in this thread oppose weed, considering the topic is about things to do when high. If you honestly believe that marjiuana has all these powerful effects on your body, fine. But I can guarantee that marijuana is a dangerous drug, and there are MANY other ways to heighten your personality, better your mood, better your mental/physical state other than marijuana. This is why my former question wasn't answered. I ask this to any marijuana smoker, who do they know that has become successful and been a marijuana user? And no, rock stars don't count, as their profession isn't the same as other job fields. In reply to:FUCK you Amanda, you are a stupid BITCHAfraid to ask, Amanda is a well respected member of this community, and I would appreciate it if you wouldn't use foul language and present a decent reason to why you would say something like that.EDITAlthough I myself am not a moderator, I think this argument needs to be squashed. Therefore, this is my final post within this thread. Any posts in reply to this will be disregarded as the bottom line is that marijuana is bad for a healthy person.

your right, im sorry

How do really know its bad? You have read things that tell you its bad. I have read both. I believe its a good thing for some people. I have seen people who are totaly screwed up and they smoke weed. I've also seen Honors students with straight A's who smoke. So it just depends on the person. As for me, I'm responsible about it. I hardly ever go out in public while under the influence.

Okay, I know that I said I won't reply, but this question must be answered. How do I know marijuana is bad? Number one, the studies. Many studies have shown harmful effects due to marijuana usage. Secondly, I have known several people who use marijuana, and I've seen many problems in them. Marijuna used medically has been refined and tested for that purpose. Lastly, I too know a few people who are Honors students that smoke marijuana. It doesn't matter if they are honors students, as I never once said that marijuana makes you stupid. It harms your body, and that doesn't only pertain to your brain. Stop trying to argue guys, because you all know the risks of smoking marijuana.

In reply to: Number one, the studies How do you know these studies arn't total BS? How do you? You don't!
-
Maybe these people you know had problems/were lazy before they started smoking? maybe these problems could have indirectly led to them trying marijuana?I don't smoke pot now, but smoking has helped me get through tough times in the past, and i think it's wrong to show so little respect to other people simply because they CHOOSE to smoke weed.
-
What studies, Sir, are you talking about? Because I also have read studies, in my favor actually. Do you think I believe weed isn't bad for you just because I want it to be so? I think weed isn't bad for you because of the countless studies and articles I have read that show the actual danger of marijuana.Are you even kidding? Your whole argument was everyone who smokes pot becomes unsuccessful and then you just refuted it. The small non-permanent bodily harm it does to my longs far outweighs the immense mental building weed has brought me.You people are so funny. Heres how you argue...ITS BAD FOR YOU. I KNOW IT. THERE HAVE BEEN STUDIES! IT IS BAD FOR YOU SO IT MUST BE BANNED BECAUSE DOING ANYTHING BAD TO YOURSELF MUST BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY EVEN IF ONE CHOOSES TO. RAAAAH I AM BEING IRRATIONAL AND STUBBORN. I AM MR. STUBBORN. JAMES BOND MR. STUBBORN. WAAAAH.

Not really. I've presented quite a few good reasons, and the truth is, you guys just dont want to listen. Secondly, in retaliation to people saying that what if the studies are BS? Well, if thats the case then I can assume myself that the research that chibishmoo has read is false too. I'd love to sit here and argue for another twenty pages, but seeing as no one listens and I don't have the time or energy to continue this topic, people squash it. Bottom line is, take responsibility for your actions. If you think smoking marijuana isn't bad, then whatever. Just remember, if something were to happen to you, it not only affects you, but those around you and close to you. That is a fact.
