Oh and about motivation, among most of the kids I smoke with, I suppose we would be considered "unmotivated" by the vast majority of people.

But thats mostly because our idea of motivation doesnt have to do with joining the rat race to compete with who can gather as much stuff as they can before they die. Our motivation is internal, not external.

I cant speak for anyone else, but thats how it is around here.

You guys should see Half Baked, one of the funniest and stupidest movies ever.

Whether you partake in the herbs or not, it's hilarious.

No, I don't smoke. I hang out at my friends house all the time that they're always smokin' a bowl, but I don't ever do it.

That's funny. So on one hand you blame the person and not the means to his result when talking about pot, but then with regards to everything else, it's the "rat race" and not the person that's at fault?

Just more stoner logic. How dreadfully nostalgic.

tried it once back in high school but never felt the "sensation" others are feeling, so never did it again.

You have to do it more than once - it may take 2-3 times, depends on the person...

no those drug ads sure did the trick...
then again i tried smoking and drinking @ 12. lol.

I know plenty of potheads though... some of them are totally wasted and don't do anything productive while the others manage to get over 3.5GPA.
Maybe i should start ;-) Cause damn well nothing is helping my grades at school ;-)

depending on how much you smoke as well... if your first time out is with a group of seasoned smokers, the chances of you getting ripped out of your mind are very good :)

If you want to accomplish magical great things and change the world and all that hooplah, smoking before you have to do what you have to do isnt going to help. There is a difference between doing the amount of work necessary so you can comfortably tell the world to go screw itself, and climbing mount everest.

If you dont know where I'm coming from, you arent going to understand by my just telling you.

Much safer to drive than when you're drunk too...not that I would recommend it though...
