Attitude to Bad Habits

I would rather be sober, but drinking with friends is quite fun. I would never get black-out drunk though and I usually only drink if I don't have to pay for it. Which is not very often. And I would prefer to not smoke 1. because I'm an athlete, and 2. because it's a waste of money in my opinion.

I should also mention that my attitude to smoking weed is a bit better. When people are high they are usually relaxed, they don't act agressively and unfriendly. But still it isn't a healthy thing to do.

I admit we may have some crosscultural differences and I can be using English lanuage not properly all the time, but THIS is clearly not something I deserve to be called a hater for =]
I mentioned it on a side note, by the way, I wasn't even considering that the main discussion will move towards talking about marihuana solely, so it were actually weed smokers who started to "care" about this too much.

And lol'd at the picture. It's a shame you can't see something like that on St. Petersburg streets.

Honestly, I don't care what you put into your body, but I can judge you by it if I want to. And I do. And I don't care if you get hammered at night and pass into a coma from alchohol poisoning, but I do care if you are driving on the interstate drunk, and you have a very good chance of killing yourself, me, the family in the minivan next to you, or the people in the house you run into as you roll your car over a street at seventy miles an hour, killing yourself.

I don't really like being fucked up I just don't see a point to weed and stuff. I like being mentally there better.

I don't like my throat getting fucked up from the smoke and anything besides oxygen in my lungs is not needed, I run, swim, and bike, among other things. I need my lungs to be in top shape, even if weed doesn't damage them like cigarettes do.

This is the closest post to my opinion, and it's exactly what I do.

After the first few times it stops hurting your throat everytime. And weed doesn't mess up your mental abilities. I smoke before school everyday because it helps me concentrate and im always just so much more curious about stuff while high.

I scoot, played football and lacrosse in high school, and now I play lacrosse for SDSU ... and back in middle school before I started smoking my mile times couldn't get below 9:00. But after 7 years of blazing I now have an average of around 7:00. So stop accusing weed for ruining peoples lives, they would have fucked it up regardless.

Stop believing government lies and actually do some research people!(general statement not directed towards anybody)

Smoking weed isn't about being popular or getting fucked up, its about exploring yourself.

nope, thats a common misconception. humans did not evolve to smoke pot. our brains produce endocannabinoids, which are found in the nervous system and immune system, these are natural and dont give you any "high" when released for various reasons. BECAUSE of these natural cannabinoids, the brain needs cannabinoid receptors to be able to use them. the cannabinoids in marijuana just happen to share a similar chemical structure as the cannabinoids in our bodies and therefore, the cannabinoid receptors are able to take them in. since the chemical structure is slightly different, they produce different effects than the natural cannabinoids our brain makes.

this could have been the case with an infinite number of chemicals, we're just fortunate enough to have receptors in our brains capable of using the ones in the marijuana plant. the cannabinoid receptors evolved with our bodies natural cannabinoids, and as a result most cannabinoids found in nature will effect the receptors in some way. thc just happens to have the funnest effect.

oh wow he said that...

the government spends billions telling kids its bad for you, if they wanted us to think its harmless, they wouldnt spend so much to tell us it isnt.

marijuana isnt harmless, but its not BAD for you. and this isnt the government that releases studies every month that keep on adding on the benefits and debunking the myths, these are independent research labs filled with people that have studied this stuff for years releasing all these studies. the government doesnt want us to think weed is good, they want us to think its bad. they want the alcohol and pharmaceutical companies to keep their monopoly on pleasure and medicine, but they're losing it.

i smoke for my bad insomnia. takes me 3 hours to get to sleep on a normal night.. takes me about 20-30 minutes with cannabis. cannabis works better than sleeping pills.
cannabis works better than a lot of pharmaceuticals actually. why do you think pharmaceutical companies lobbies to make thc a schedule 3 drug.. yet made sure they clarified that they wanted to keep the ACTUAL plant a schedule 1 drug? because they know the medicinal value of this drug, and they want to duplicate and patent it, but they dont want people to grow it themselves.

YES this kid actually knows whats up. ignore parrish and bennett because they just fuck around all the time to annoy people. which should result in a ban because i literally just got banned for 2 weeks for the same shit...

weed is already legal in a sense....MARINOL!!!!

its isolated THC in pill form. and get this, after millions of years of humans walking this Earth there obviously has never been a death attributed to marijuana. in not even 10 years (8 to be exact) Marinol has been directly linked by the FDA to cause 4 deaths...

Wow, I didn't even know that (which is no surprise though, cause of my healthy lifestyle it is OK to have no interest in such things I guess)

Well, thanks everybody who gave their well-argumented opinions on smoking marihuana but it seems a bit ironic to me how all these "cool and chill" weed smokers began to attack this thread aggressively after noticing a tiny note of mine towards the subject (in which I actually desribed my attitude pot in a rather positive way!). I wasn't even going to discuss it in the first place! Yet I had to read a couple of related articles to ensure myself I am not talking some complete bull$hit lol.
In my country weed isn't really popular comparing to alcohol and tobacco, so I'd like to know people's attitude to these kinds of substances in the first place.

i like to drink, but not very often because it makes me naseous the next day and im usually the DD.

i look at the two like this Alcohol is a poisen, and marijuana is medicine. its not as black and white as that obviously but thats just my main thought process.

as for ecstasy, coke, shrooms...etc recreational drugs like that, i think as long as you have self control and arent doing them every weekend its not a big deal. i used to roll like a tire after high school but i realzed after just 2 months of rolling balls almost every weekend i noticed a change in my personality and i just didnt feel right, and now i havnt done it in almost a year. shrooms i do every 2-3 months because it helps me explore the universe and is just fun as hell haha

but if you do heroin or meth your a worthless piece of shit...

Marijuana may be a medicine, I accept that.
But I only take medicine when I'm sick, and I'm not sick.

Also, my mile times were never below 8 minutes, but after working out and joining cross country, they dropped to 5:52. Without any drugs in my body.
