Did you just smoke a bowl? You quoted me, after i already discounted that stupid weed overdose comment. I'l type it again for the slow people. You....can....overdose....on....water....also! I guess that makes weed safer than water according too you? Your parents must be proud. *rofl*

And you go ahead and prove my point. You are a better man than JoinT because you don't smoke weed .. so you can attack his (criminal and stupid) character by making childish comments like, "Did you just smoke a bowl?" .. go fvck yourself you square and keep convincing yourself that you're way, is the right way.

Beyond good and evil .. there are no such things. They are constructs of language, nothing else ... black and white is for simpletons.
Whoa...pretty deep dude. Don't agree...but it's still pretty deep. ;)


Just wondering...are there any non pot smokers here who don't think smoking it is harmful, bad, or just stupid. On the flip side, are there any pot smokers here who think smoking it is harmful, bad, or just stupid...do any of you ever think to yourselves while smoking it "I shouldn't be doing this." ?

Smoking is bad for you, nobody is arguing that one. Smoke in the lungs, any kind, can't be good for your lungs.

Yes, you'd be a healthier person if you never smoked anything (cleaner lungs) .. but not indulging in anything all your life cause you wanna live longer is a defeatist thing, because you're gonna die one day anyways. Who knows, you could die tomorrow, so why the fvck not have some fun and risk your body while your at it? I suppose you don't drive a car then either? Cause you know, a lot of people die in car accidents.

So far your posts have been nothing but inflammatory blanket statements, I think you're the idiot. Do you ever sit down, have a drink and think, "Gee, this is real bad for me, I'm stupid for drinking this." ... or how bout, "Gee, sitting at my computer all day and talking to teenagers is really making me a big fat loser, I must be fvcking stupid wasting my life like this." ???

I have an excuse .. I get paid to post on ATOT, and not only that, but I lick no one's ass, or pat anyone's back on this forum to have "internet friends".

edit: ^ beat me to it ^

Please read the posts before making these types of comments. Anyone who reads the entire thread will realize you didn't.

As i pointed out already.... (Man this gets old repeating myself)
I had ALREADY countered the silly "can't O/D on weed, so it's good for you argument" and then joinT said it again, making him look silly.

It's clear who the biggots are in this thread, for anyone that reads the entire thread.

Almost ALL my posts are simply counter arguments to baseless "pot is good for you posts". Nowhere have i mentioned locking these people up and throwing away the key, as a matter of FACT i did mention the penalties are higher than they should be. So once again a pot supporter makes an a^^ out of himself assuming things about me. :sigh:

You read the whole thread little one, nobody is claiming that pot is good for you. JoinT was not the one making himself and ass, you were. How bout I spell it out for you .. S-P-E-L-L-I-N-G S-H-!-T O-U-T F-O-R P-E-O-P-L-E A-N-D C-A-L-L-I-N-G T-H-E-M S-L-O-W I-S P-R-E-T-ENTIOUS ARROGANCE AT IT'S BEST ... so get off your high horse you goddamn nerd and get out for once, and I don't mean church goody-goody.

The question was, Which is worse: Weed or Alcohol?"

You can undeniably OD on alcohol as opposed to weed by a WIDE margin. You haven't ALREADY countered anything dipsh!t.

Answer the simple question posed by erikiksaz, which is WORSE?

As the smarter posters to this thread-(both sides of the debate) have ALREADY agreed overdosing is "using the substance to an EXTREME". As such that example can't be used when studying the effects of which is worse.

EXAMPLE: (again)
You CAN overdose on water also, so does that make pot safer than water? No, to think that way is being ignorant.

I'd love to hear you say on national TV that pot is safer than water cause you can't O/D on it. You'd be a laughing stock for the rest of your life.

but not indulging in anything all your life cause you wanna live longer is a defeatist thing, because you're gonna die one day anyways.
Are you assuming that the reason I don't smoke pot is because i want to live longer?


Who knows, you could die tomorrow, so why the fvck not have some fun and risk your body while your at it?
I don't not smoke pot to live longer. Why would I smoke it if I knew I was dying tomorrow?


I suppose you don't drive a car then either? Cause you know, a lot of people die in car accidents.
What's the point you're trying to make? Of course I drive a car. I know people die in accidents. However, the reason I don't smoke pot isn't because I think it kills people. What's with you people? First smoking pot is compared to freeing the slaves. Now it's compared to driving cars.

Do you ever sit down, have a drink and think, "Gee, this is real bad for me, I'm stupid for drinking this."
Never.


or how bout, "Gee, sitting at my computer all day and talking to teenagers is really making me a big fat loser, I must be fvcking stupid wasting my life like this." ???
Actually, I often think I'm spending too much time on the internet. Of course, I never think of myself as a big, fat, loser...unlike a good percentage of the membership here, I'm not overweight. I still get a smile when I think of all the people who got all riled up when SW Airlines announced the 2nd seat thing. :D

Neither do I.

BreakApart trying to maintain his feigned superiority with every belittling post, condemning something he's never tried. Certainly this man more than any could use some mind expanding substances.

weed is legal in Amsterdam, where I'll be going in two months :)

marijuana IS habit forming, plus its a gateway drug, to make things worse. On the other hand, alcoholism is a disease... so pick your poison, i guess. In small quantities, I really doubt either will affect you too much.

The original question:

Which is worse, weed or alcohol?

Was answered by, weed can't kill you, booze can.

Water is not a part of this equation. What do you think is so bad about weed? Why don't you smoke it? I'm just curious I know this is OT.

i'd say alcohol is worse. i've done both. i kinda gave up proper drinking 7 months ago, after i was really sick at a party for the first time. it wasn't that i thought 'ok look what what happens when u drink', but i just can't face the taste of strong drinks any more. of course i'll still drink a beer or lite drink with a meal, but i no longer go out to intenionally get drunk, which looking back was very stupid and immature.
about a month ago i tried weed. still do it (today even), and it's alot more relaxing then alcohol, and alot easier to take, and doesn't make u stupid and falling over and bein sick (not saying that everyone that driks does, just that i do)
a friend says to me today 'hey you wanna come get drunk tonight to celebrate school being out?' . no way, i'll go smoke a J

Cannabis is better for you health wise (in my most humble opinion).
Which is not to take anything away from alcohol which is also most enjoyable, but definitley more harmful.

If you've never had a point in your life where you toked up regularly (or drank like a camel)...
Well then your weed bashing is unjustified...
And I'd rather hear from your anus than put up with more garbage off your keyboard :Q

If you think weed should remain illegal... read up!!
http://www.angelfire.com/vt/VlarDracul/hemp.html
or watch the marijuana news at cannabisculture.com.
keeping in mind that the internet is in no way a reliable source of anything... even porn is forged

And if you're one of those who honestly believes that weed is illegal because your government is looking after your best interests... (before they've finished weighing out their own) Then God help you because no one else can save your unevolved simplistic sheep's brian.

I wasn't aware that this was a discussion of whether or not pot should be made legal. My opinion is invalid if I've never gotten high on a regular basis? Do you really believe this? So you're saying nobody should offer an opinion on Herion usage unless they've been a junkie? Nobody has a valid reason to talk of the repercusions of overeating unless they used to be a fat pig from eating too much?

Yes it is my personal belief that when you have don't have experience or knowledge on a topic, your opinion is useless. By regular basis I mean If you toked once or twice and didn't like it... then you cant convince me of anything other than your own inexperience. As for Heroin-users and lard-asses... I'm neither so I'll speak for neither. Why you would bring those two topics up to refute me is besides the point. I suggest you to follow your own advise and mind the topic of the forum yourself... backing yourself up with unrelated 'what if scenarios' and sarcastic assumptions that dont prove anything just makes you look like a fool in the eyes of the intelligent stoner audience (still almost 10% of the CANADIAN population, and rising)

Smoke and Ounce and then let me know whats your beef with Mary-Jane...
