For the potheads....

how much would u say you smoke on average? me? i go through(by myself) at least a couple ounces a week and that doesn't include what i smoke with friends. Also do u prefer smoking with friends or alone. i'm not greedy and don't MIND smokin my friends out at all, but i do prefer when it's just me chillin and enjoyin my buzz.

You sound like a case of lung cancer looking for a place to happen. You must have a really good job or trust fund to be able to afford that. If you insist on smoking that much, you'd probably be better off with hashish, either smoked or ingested.In answer to your question, none for a really long time, not that I have anything against it. But if I smoked 2+ ounces a week, the whole time I'd be rocking in the corner of my room, wondering if the bad people were coming to get me. And I'd be eating a lot of Devil Dogs.

lung cancer...yeah, i wouldn't be too surprised. if the weed don't do it the cigs probably will!!! but as for how much money i SPEND on weed...i didn't say anything about PAYIN for it. It kinda helps when the guy you get it from actually smokes more than you do...he's kinda in the habit of fronting me my smoke and forgetting all about it. i don't take it advantage of it TOO much, but hey....

I smoke between 1/2 a gram - Eighth a week. Just depends on whats going on that week.

You sure have a stronger constitution than I have. If I smoked that much I wouldn't be able to find the keyboard, much less type on it. Do you lead a relatively normal life while smoking that amount?I remember in college going to the bank, trying to fix an account problem when I was high. The problem is that I was so agreeable...I'd have signed my account over to the teller if she'd asked. Needless to say, I was unable to get the problem fixed. That's pretty much how I functioned when stoned.

That sucks! I can do everything 100% normal. Im just a bit more relaxed and not as nervous. I can do my banking... schooling.. driving... family functions... Serious discussion.. Questioning... Working on cars... Figuring out why a car is fucked... etc.... I can do just about anything while high. If the activity takes a lot, I just put my high 'aside' in my head and do it. Its kind of cool to finish something and as you set there and think "great job" you reliaze you still have a buzz going But I also think ever few months a heavy smoker should take a week - month break from it. Just to clear their head. But, thats just me.

Driving????? That's a bit scary.

Nah... Its all good. Its a hell a lot easier then driving drunk. Like I said before, I can put my high aside. When I do, I have to be relaxed for it to come back, unless its been awhile, then its probably gone. Only time I wont drive high is night. I hate only being able to see as far as my headlights allow me. Actually, I hate driving at night all the way around

Not only lung cancer, but also schizophrenia is a possible consequence. Schizophrenia-like pyschosis is a well-known consequence of regular long-term use of cocaine or amphetamines, but it can occur from regular long-term heavy marijuana use too. It's caused by the release of dopamine that gives the high.

In reply to:I can put my high aside.Not sure how you can objectively measure this (as the stoned person), but if you cause an auto accident, even if it has nothing to do with your being high, and the police figure it out (smell it on you clothes, whatever), you're in pretty deep shit.I know people who insist they drive just fine when they're drunk, even when they're not able to walk in a straight line. I told them that I'd rip their head off if they smashed their car into someone I knew.But if you drive during the day you have more opportunity to run over kids. Happy motoring.

I don't smoke that much. I mostly buy dimes, just once or twice a month, and each dime lasts me for like 2 weeks. I usually just smoke on the weekends. And if I smoke on a weekday, I make sure it's not that much, enough to keep me satisfied, not completely gone. Heh.And I usually like to smoke alone, though I have friends who I somewhat regularly smoke with.

yesterday i smoked an ounce but before that i hadnt smoked in a while. im more into LSD now.

That's deep man.

I smoke a few grams each day... I have cut back A LOT from what I did in the past... I realized I cant socialize when Im stoned, but I need to smoke a nice splif every day before I go to bed... I will misson for miles to find weed late at night... Just thought I would add this shitty comment

Shit max I have smoked is a oz. a week.i hear snoop dogg smokes a QP a day though so it can be done

I was afraid to drive stoned at first but then I got used to hitting weed while driving in a car full of people and I got good at it, just like regular driving. Actually the first time I drove drunk, completely shitfaced and reeking of vodka I used all my practice for driving stoned, did great, better than most elderly people who are sober.

Do you think you were in a good position to know how well you drove?

A lot of people think they drive as well as or better than they do when they're sober, even if they're weaving all over the place. I doubt that you were in any situations where reaction time was critical. Suppose there was a scenario where hitting your brakes half a second sooner would prevent an accident?

1:00 AM, no other cars on the road, I took the back roads to my house a couple miles away. I'm positive I wasn't swerving. The only problem I've ever had driving on weed though is sometimes late at night I can see what appear to be objects on the road but they're just mirages, sometimes I panic but I'm in no danger whatsoever, I think it's cause I have bad nightvision.

OK, but if you find yourself wrapped around a tree (or a minivan full of children), you'll know that you perception was flawed.

I've driven drunk and/or stoned. I've had people who wern't wasted with me. They began to question if I was really intoxicated. But why take the risk? Last thing I want to do is drive. Its a buzz kill. I'd rather chill with some tunes or go on a little nature hike
