I will never do crack/herorin/any other hard drugs.
But I smoke weed.
People dont smoke because they NEED to, but rather it gives them a different reality for the time that the drug is working.
People smoke cancer sticks due to their brain needing it, and how they falsely belive that cigs will make them feel better.
You don't know why people smoke. Everyone has their reasons. I'll tell you now I didn't smoke cigs to think I was making myself feel better...in whatever way you were implying.
It's a personal choice. Why do people get so uptight about other peoples' personal choices? Because they're uneasy about their own. Stop yelling at each other. Make peace with yourself and you have made peace with your enemy.
In other words, worry about your own shit and not everybody elses; exactly what I've already been saying.
Maybe since the God of witticism has said it people will take the advice. SP.
Bake you're right about stoners generally being boring...only IMO for being so damn UNAMUSED and quiet about everything.
Every day when I come home from work there are different people at my house(my bro is only one year younger, we have lots of the same friends)...and they all smoke weed.
Every day when I come home I walk into his room, say 'whatup'...and am greeted with silence, and maybe a fist to pound. They're all sucked into the TV. Yet at the same time, once I sit down and start watching and laughing, I realise that they don't even seem to be entertained by what they're watching - I'm the only one laughing or talking about what's happening.
These are boring stoners. Oh, but they don't hit little girls on bikes while they're leaving McDonalds. Nor do they forget to pick up their little brother from baseball practice in a shady hood. Nor do they forget their dinner appointments with grandma. And the list goes on...all of those commercials are propoganda and exageration.
BTW for any weed smokers thinking it won't get you 'addicted', you're wrong. ANYTHING is habit forming. Including marijuana. Anything you do often is a habitual thing. If you smoke, it's a habit.
Also, weed is not HEALTHY for you. It may have healing and soothing properties in regards to different ailments - but then again, so does vikodin and ridilin and even aspirin. Yet these are all bad for you as well.
At no time in this thread have I said something like that, that weed is harmless yatta yatta yatta...I've merely been defending myself and my reasons for my habits against some kid who has no business nor reason to be butting in.
Peace.
