Alright. I've been waiting for this so I suppose I should make it more than a load of bullshyat. First of all, for the record, I'd like to state that abusing anything, weed, alcohol, friends, love, neighbors, is normally unhealthy in the first place. Having placed my caution sign, I'll continue. I'm not quite sure if this is personal preference but maybe someone can decide for me when I'm done. I guess its the way people act when their high, and because of it, how they act when they aren't. The stoner tradition is glorified by those who do it, and most don't tend to realize how moronic they look. Listening to "stoner music" because you like to get high is bullshit. Get a life. It's not a lifestyle, it's a mental addiction. People who smoke tend to fiend. Honestly, I never get that "urge" to get smashed. I'm sorry, I just don't. But when someone reeeeally wants to get high, you'll drive all across the beach looking for that dealer. C'mon, if its that much trouble, there's probably something better you can do. Oh right, and marijuana gives you cancer by the way. Don't give me that "it's all natural" bull. Yeah, its all natural until you burn it moron, combustion creates carbon and other gasses that give you cancer. When you're breathing through an iron lung at 42 for a "quick fix," call me and tell me that smoking is better. Alright so all those probably haven't convinced you at all. Well I really just don't like how people act when they're high. Driving around in circles because you're stoned and its amazing... that's not a quality saturday night, that's you being a dipshit and wasting gas. I get tired of my friends smoking and sitting around laughing at nothing. It's lame. Watching you cheese isn't entertaining, watching Jimmy fall of his roof is entertaining. Maybe I'm biased because I know a lot of potheads... I don't know too many people who smoke and aren't potheads. My brother, yeah, dipshit. ET, sorry bro, you're on the same list. You couldn't hold down a job because of drug testing man. Not cool. You can't let that shit run your life. You don't see too many of us 18 year olds with alcoholism problems. I can trust my friends to drink responisbly. When they start smoking, all that goes out the window. How do I know? Because I've tried, and it made me feel stupid around people. I felt ashamed for being high, for acting like a tool, and for screwing up my priorities... smoking weed almost got me killed. I guess I can't really explain to you, in words, what I mean, but feel free to tell me off and how wrong I am. But I ask you this, could you go a month without getting high? Two? I drink when I feel like it, not because I need to.

the only real argument i have here is that it's not the substance that gets people addicted. it's people that get addicted to feelings. some people get just as attached to their computers or video games. we just don't consider this as much of a problem. there are, however, people that live with their parents their entire lives and rarely leave the comfort of their computer chairs. it's things that make us feel good or not at all.
you see, i'm not afraid to admit that i like to smoke and/or drink because i feel good when i do. if you asked me not to smoke or drink for a month, my routine wouldn't change much. i'd just enjoy myself less in certain social situations. i could, however, do it. i just wouldn't enjoy it, and as i said before... "if you're not enjoying yourself, what's the point?"
and again, anything regarding the health of the user will be disregarded as my own health is not of concern to me, and other people can make that decision for themselves.
p.s. daniel-san, if i ever don't get a job, my little brother, or anything else because i'd rather be getting high / if i ever fiend and smoke resin or waste time/money driving all over the city when the night is essentially over because i need a fix, you can feel free to punch me in the face and explain to me that i'm fucking up my life... but not in that order.

Dan man...this isnt just my mancrush talkin but you're absolutely. right. And as for achilles "if im not enjoying it whats the point?" Don't you think thats a little selfish? What about "If im not making other people uncomfortable whats the point?" cuz thats exactly the same thign with smoking weed. Or why not drop out of school, buy a gun, a bullet, and all the cocaine you can afford. Then just get krunked until you run out then shoot yourself. Thats a great way to look at life.

no, i don't think that's a little selfish. i think it's a lot selfish. essentially, though, i don't care. i'm not going out of my way to please other people if it's not making me happy anymore. a lot of the time it makes me unhappy to bend over backwards for people. and my smoking weed does not make everyone uncomfortable. it makes some people uncomfortable, but that isn't my problem. it's theirs. you see, life is really selfish. i'm only nice to most people when they're upset because i'd feel bad about myself if i didn't. that's pretty selfish if you look at it right. just like everything else. i may not enjoy school all the time, but i enjoy parts of it and am willing to take the good with the bad. oh and i said i'm not taking my health into consideration. that's not entirely true. i'm not trying to kill myself so i'm not about to try coke, but i'm also not going to be all health conscientious. you make more people uncomfortable with your vehement but baseless disapproval for something they enjoy than i do by smoking. don't go there. end.
p.s. that wasn't really cohesive, but you get the point.

that's not true. i care about them too, but i'm not trying to let them run my life. i'm sorry if you can't accept that by specifically asking me not to smoke, that's what you're doing. trying to control what i do with my life. it's not causing a problem in my life beyond your dislike. if i were not working BECAUSE i'd rather get high, then you'd be being my friend by asking me not to smoke. that's not what you're doing. you're asking me not to because you don't like it, and that's not my problem.

sure smoking weed isnt good but alcohol is just as bad and just as addictive. people drink and smoke to use as scapegoats in personal problems in their lives at the time."it was the beer" bullshit, alcohol makes your inhabitions go away so you can do the things you really want to do in the first place, but are juss to timid to do without being intoxicated. People never use weed as their excuse to take advantage of so and so. they are both bad because people allow themselves to go crazy. yes i could go a month or two without smoking and drinking, i choose to do it. but i also no how to take care of myself and not let it get out of hand, but i dunno i personally think both are bad but its the people who abuse it that makes it seem like its worse than it is. -tiffany-
