While I'm not anti weed. That's a bit much. Like getting drunk every day is a turn off. Save it for the weekend or even just occasionally.

I wouldn't mind smoking it once every few months. But have no idea where to get it. So, I don't bother.

I can't stand alcohol. So, I don't drink. Just one or two drinks gives me a ripping headache within an hour or two. I get a hangover before even going to sleep. Staying hydrated doesn't help. Plus I don't like having to pee every ten to fifteen minutes.

Could care less. It is sad to see that a large part of the population still believes in the racist propaganda associated with marijuana.

It was made illegal for so many nonsense reasons.
It was made illegal to Target minorities.
It was made illegal because the people behind the prohibition of alcohol needed jobs once prohibition was over.
It was made illegal because hemp was a better material for clothing and canvas. People in the lumber industry lobbied (bribed) government officials so they wouldn't have competition. Henry Ford even had prototype hemp fiber based car parts. Like body panels.
Then when the war on drugs ramped back up in the 70s various other propaganda was spewed.

Basically marijuana is illegal due to racism, greed of politicians, and the blind support of the public who believe in the propaganda.

As long as it doesn’t effect their ability to be good people and productive members of society. I could care less…. People who get Starbucks everyday though…. Got to watch you for those hoodlums.

I don't respect them. If they did it when young and then had kids with life long learning disabilities because their parents wanted to have "fun," then I think they should be in prison for child abuse.

"I" or "you?"

I don't really like weed smokers/potheads. They're equally as self-destructive as alcoholics, the porn addicted, or any other addicts.

[Surely]

As long as they take responsibility for their actions while under the influence. I don’t care.
But I won’t associate with anyone that uses weed

[boobliker]

what is weed? as all smokers smoke plants!!! SO what do you mean?

[Dchrls78104]

They cannot be among my intimate friends; they are drug abusers like all the rest.

[Slim57]

Scum of the earth, what they do in private affects me so much I have to let the whole world know I'm crying about it.

[Prettygurl12]

I think they're losers.

[TheSpaceGnome]

They're dumb. And the weed makes them even dumber.

[jahaims]

Many people with higher iqs than you and more success smoke weed.

[TheSpaceGnome]

@jahaims I disagree. I don't consider financial or career progress while also self harming to be success, nor is it intelligent.

[TheSpaceGnome]

@jahaims Also you don't know my IQ (not that it matters since IQ tests are bad at rating mental capability).

[jahaims]

Living in an area with a large population, like a city, has more negative health consequences than consuming marijuana. If it is so bad for you how are top of the food chain athletes able regular consume it and be healthy? And you decided to skirt by the IQ part? If it makes you less intelligent how come their are daily consumers that have a higher IQ than you?

[jahaims]

I was writing my reply before your IQ response showed up. Okay then, ignore the metric of an IQ. Pick your best intellectual quality. Their is someone who smokes marijuana regularly that can out perform you in literally any intellectual pursuit.

[TheSpaceGnome]

@jahaims 1. Again, IQ scores are useless, but mine is much higher than you think (again, not that it matters).

2. People with High IQs can be wrong. It doesn't make you all knowing, nothing does. (for example time is just objects moving in space, so any physics professor who thinks time is linear, or that it can bend or be traveled, is incorrect, and yet many of them thought exactly that, they even thought collapsed stars would create connecting tubes for traveling through "space time" faster, and thats fictional too, as are FTL vehicles, because light is only that fast because it's massless).

3. No, city air is not automatically worse than inhaling weed smoke or bong vapor (unless you are near deasel or other high concetrations of pollution without a filtering mask regularly and you are directly inhaling it, to which most people in cities are not). PPM is a thing.

4. In the case where a person is slightly smarter than me while stoned, then logic would follow that they would be much smarter than me when not stoned. This is because THC blocks neuron synapse receptors for memory, comprehension, and motor skills (as well as satiation), so a smart stoned person would be a genius when not stoned. it is also possible that some people are immune to having some or all of their receptors blocked, but that would be rare, and they are still filling their lungs with particulate filled vapor or tar, which is really stupid, regardless of how clever they were are other things.

I'm a genius at some things, but suck at others, it's still a bad idea to pollute my lungs and block brain receptors needed to think, no matter what I've accomplished.

5. If I wanted to, I could become very successful much faster than my current pace, but I'm not willing to do stupid health hazardous things or fuck people over just to reach financial sucess like most rich inventors do.

Slow and steady wins the race.

[TheSpaceGnome]

@jahaims My best qualities are creative thinking, art, and problem solving, others are indeed better than me at those. though most are worse.

However, as I said, those people would excel even more if not stoned.

[TheSpaceGnome]

They would also have a higher chance at living longer if not stoned (short of being doomed for some other reason)

[jahaims]

I appreciate the dialogue. Keep believing all the propaganda. It's easier that way.

[TheSpaceGnome]

@jahaims I don't buy into propaganda, I observed many stoners, and they all were dumber, more forgetful, more easily confused, and sucked at tasks more while stoned, when compared to when not stoned.

Also, with prolonged use, over time, they permanently had cognitive degradation that got worse throughout the years, whereas those who stopped using weed earlier, had that to a lesser degree. And non users retained cognition longer when no other intellect degrading factors were involved (like dementia)

[BobbyC65]

Nice people smoke weed. 💞

[oldermale]

Good people, I smoke weed daily.

[andy530]

It’s not my thing but to each their own

[noohair]
