I would think it would be pretty obvious to anyone with a little intelligence that if you have never used it you are certainly not going to be able to speak with any authority on how it effects someone.
Thank you. I am by no means advocating marijuana use, however, in any situation nothing pisses me off more than someone who is completely ignorant of the subject making baseless statements. Especially when they're trying to gain some sort of moral high ground over me.

That could be, It's also kinda a time release effect, cause you don't digest everything at once. Eating it is a lot different than smoking it. Eating it reminds me a lot of alcohol, while smoking it.. well.. it's more in your head.. lol
I will be the first to admit it... I smoke multiple times a day everyday. It has been this way for a few years now. I can think and respond like I was sober when I am ripped now. Being high is just normal. I am used to it. It's like how you have an appetite for food, I have a daily apetite for nugg. Now some people are going to say I am the devil incarnate and that I am horribly addicted. Whatever. Sometimes when I feel like being clear headed I just go for a few weeks without smoking. Now why do so many people hate me because I live like this? I am a normal functioning member of society. I go to college and pass my classes. I have had some sort of job for several years now. I am just always high. So what? I think anti-drug people are just scared because they think that you have to work hard or whatever to be happy and they see drug users as being happy all the time without working hard and therfore breaking the rules they think society should follow. And if you have never smoked you are in no position to say what it's effects are.
Yep, I've tried it.
Yep, I do it occasionally.
No, I don't see anything wrong with it as long as I'm in a controlled environment.

Ah, good old mary j. I remember when i was a young lad, i used to think i'd never smoke, drink, or smoke weed. well times have changed haha. college has opened to me up massive drinking, constant pressure which leads to ciggarette smoking, and boredom that leads to weed smoking.
haha anyways, as the year passed on, i eventually grew out of smoking weed. I realized that it did make me stupid, and i lost too much control of normality when i was high. I just didn't feel right being out of it. I only smoke every couple weeks now, even though i tried to quit. but when most of my friends are doing it i just say what the hell.
I love getting drunk much more than getting high. Getting drunk lets me control my level and gives me a lot of game haha. weed just knocks me on my ass and makes me want to talk slow about nothing.

good point.
...he wasen't admitting that he is addicted.
for some people, smoking actually helps them, almost like ridalin (sp) and people with ADD. I know for the first 2 or 2.5 years of hs i was always having problems concentrating, poor at taking tests, not very social, tended to keep things bottled up. half way into my jr. year i started to smoke a few times a week, more than the usual once a month or something like that. i started to notice that i could concentrate, not just in school, but at work and with other matters, my test grades started to improve as well. I also became more outgoing and open with friends and people in general. needless to say this past spring i graduated with a 3.5 gpa, the highest gpa that i've ever had. (it was usually around a 2.0)
now i'm not sitting here trying to tell you that its the greatest thing in the world, for some people pot can be bad, especially when they abuse it... but for most, it's an enjoyable experience. of the few negatives that weed has, they arn't bad... dry eyes, dry mouth,coughing, at the very worst nausea.... i can't remember where i saw it but marijuana has the lowest mortality rate when compared to other drugs, including alcohol and nicotine. this drug is not habit forming, and the bi products of it can be very useful. imo, people need to stop being so close minded, sit down and indulge one night, who knows, you might like it.
you can fill yourself with alcohol till the verge of alcohol poisoning... or you can smoke a bowl and enlighten yourself, and not have to worrie about having your stomach pumped, getting into a accident because you were driving drunk or even worse getting into an accident with someone that isn't drunk, and killing them (not saying you do these sort of things, just trying to get the point across)

Puff, Puff, Pass..... Doing it once in a while with friends isn't bad, its actually a great way to relax and have fun. Hell its nice doing it with complete strangers too 
I can't see myself smoking after college though just doesn't seem right unless you get into that Lester Burnham from American Beauty midlife crisis thing
By the way i thought pot didn't really get you hooked. Wasn't that like a big news story not long ago, that tobacco and alcohol are far worse?

I smoke it here and there. When one of my heavy weed smoking friends gets a big bag in, I'll buy a small bag to last me a month or so. Then I'll go months without smoking it unless someone offers it to me, which has been rare lately
I prefer smoking a bowl alone and not dealing with people when I'm stoned. If I smoke with someone, it's gotta be a close friend who won't annoy the piss outta me. Uusually I'll just smoke late at night a few hours before I hit the sack and play some games or watch a movie. I've found that I always see a different meaning in a movie when I watch it stoned and I analyze everything to extremes. If the movie has any kind of crappy acting I instantly notice it and become frickin' Roger Ebert I also tend to be very active when I'm stoned. I can exercise constantly and enjoy it (which I normally hate exercising) and I'll clean up my hell of a room for hours. Organizing every object in the room to perfection. Then when I run outta weed, it goes back to a mess. LOL
Seriously, pot actually motivates me to do stuff and be active, but I definately prefer to be alone when I smoke it. I just get more done. Moderation is key though folks, anything can hurt you if done too much. Be it sitting on the computer posting on AT all day and night, exercising until you rip a muscle, or drinking all night long and come down with alcohol poisoning. Variety is the spice of life, but moderation is the rule.

valinos, you sound like the recreational pot smoker much like myself, i can't stand n00bs that sit there and giggle all the time... smoking before bed is always nice. playing games you ever notice how you seem to zone into the game so much?
very true.

Stev0, that's me. I'm kinda an off and on recreational smoker. When I get a half ounce from a friend I'll make it last a month or a little more smoking just a bowl or two a night. Then I'll go months without smoking more than a couple times I happen to run into it. I'm in that phase right now, although I've been actively searching out for some lately. It's been hella dry where I live though :/
I totally understand about spacing out in games. Back when I played Return to Castle Wolfenstein with my clan there were a few pot smokers in there with me. We'd get on Roger Wilco and toke up together at 2 AM and talk for a bit. Then after we were done smoking we'd get on some public servers and wreak havoc on the newbies We'd just dick around and laugh our asses off on RW. I remember pulling off some crazy stunts in that game while after getting hella blown LOL! Good times!
Ah sh!t, those wonderful memories bring a tear to my eye...good times indeed
PM me sometime if you play any SoF2, Warcraft 3 or anything else. We'll get on Roger Wilco and toke up and go kick ass! Haha!

I wouldn't exactly say I'm anti-drug because I do think it has its uses, but thats beside the point. You're talking about people being "scared" because you're happy without working hard and "breaking the rules." I've gotta' ask though are you really happy? I understand the drug may create the illusion of happiness for you, but you're just as content with using it all the time to get your fake happiness versus the real thing. I really don't care what someone does as long as it doesn't affect me physically or economically, but I just question if your really satisfied with your drug induced happiness. Personally I want the real thing.
I also like all the comments of "you don't understand unless you try it." What did you all turn into 14 year old kids where no one understands anything but you or something? I've made many well informed decisions without having to have first hand experience. I've decided against corrective eye surgery because I feel its an unproven science. I'd certainly not want to have to try it to decide. I've decided that I'm really not much of a believer in any of the big religions. I just decided that by reading though, no real life experience. New drugs usually are tested on animals before humans and we draw conclusions from that, but no first hand experience. Hell I don't touch the burner on the stove because from seeing what happens to things that do touch it and all my reading, I know its probably hot.
You may not like all the studies or reports out, I certainly don't feel they're all valid myself. But you also cannot tell me that a person cannot make a reasonable decision as to what they feel the effects of pot are by reading, and even watching others use it. Three possibilities:
(1) You're some kind of weirdo who decided to join AT for the sole purpose of telling everyone what a stoner you are.
(2) You're already a member who decided to create a new account and post some bs hoping to get a rise out of people.
(3) You're already a member who decided to create a new account because everything you posted is true but you don't want anyone to know what a stoner you are.
My first time getting high.....well i was gone for 12 hours straight. 2 j's to myself, and the stuff was orange for some reason. (oopsy lol)
Well, i do it for recreation, i'm not addicted like some of my friends are. They have to smoke like 2 j's b4 they even start feeling it. I'm gone with 1. I go to a friends house, party, etc, everynow and then and toke up. I've had some weird experience though.
1st time i ever smoked pot - didn't fell a thing
2nd - felt like crap
3rd - couldn't see straight for about an hour (i think it was laced), but it was one hellofa great hour
4th - kept smiling, it was great

LaSt

The single most ignorant statement in this thread. What a shame to see it slowly devolve into crap now.
