Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, and other brilliant scientists regularly use(d)

Just because some were brilliant enough to still be smart and productive despite engaging in stupid behavior doesn't mean it makes sense for anyone else to do so.

I smoke pot pretty often, and I bet I'm much more accomplished than you are. Mostly because I'm more accomplished than most people.

I'd bet you are wrong, but hey, it's the internet, you can be whatever you like. Think of how much more accomplished you could be if you didn't waste your time/money/energy on something stupid.

Ha, so by your logic I must try stupidity before judging something to be stupid? Clearly all that dope smoking has done wonders for your brain already.

You realize that marijuana use and abuse by adults has no long term physical affects on the human brain? It's actually good for the brain.

Funny how all the dopers get so indignant when called what they are. If the shoe fits, wear it. Why get so mad and indignant? Is it because deep down inside you know how screwed up your habit is?

Yes, but only some of those 'fixes' involve getting high and impairing cognitive function. Eating a burger can be bad for your health, but it doesn't get you high, and doesn't make you a danger on the road etc. Drinking and/or doping do.

you sound like a gambler.

:hmm:

Feynman and Sagan both said that it helped them. I'm going to take their word for it over some fucking loser projecting his frustration on people about a substance of which he is completely ignorant.

Funny how you keep on repeating the same passive aggressive line, almost as if you don't actually have an argument :hmm:

Again, tell us what makes you so great.

I've never said that I was great. I don't need to get high to relax though, and I don't do illegal drugs, so that puts me a notch above the stoners already.

Would you carry the "illegal drugs" stigma against pot if it was legal? I personally have a disdain for tobacco smokers, and since I've done the research and seen through the propaganda against pot, I actually think cig smokers and beer drinkers are more dangerous drug users than 'stoners'.

By calling someone a loser you imply that you are better than them. I submit that you are the loser and you're just projecting your frustrations about your inadequacy onto a group you don't understand. It's pretty clear that you know nothing about drugs. I'm just interested in how big a loser you are.

No, if it wasn't illegal I would put it on the same level as alcohol, a dumb thing to do but not illegal.

so are you one of those circular logic types?

drugs are illegal so they are bad. But why are they bad? because they're illegal. But why are they illegal? Because they're bad.

your just digging your hole deeper and deeper. You really proved how much of a loser you truly are. You probably fall into the snitch category as well. Don't do drugs fine thats your choice, bull dont hit us with the 5th grade DARE program and say how your better then us, when your just proving how low you IQ truly is.:awe:
