If you don't think pot is a hindrance...

[RastaKaze]

You are an idiot. Yes, there are many plausable medical uses for marijuana, but in the end, when it comes down to you and your usage, you realize it's an inhibitor, right?

[flamingskullballs]

i like to smoke pot, and in the end, it gets me stoned

[RastaKaze]

Dude this is a serious post I don't mean no disrespect but can you please keep the useless comments to yourself?

[flamingskullballs]

and that was a serious answer!!!

i didnt say anything stupid like "pot is going to cure my broken leg", or "smoking bud will fix everything"

i blatantly said that i smoke pot to get stoned, because i enjoy the feeling

[RastaKaze]

Ok, I'm sorry, but, have you come to terms with any of the problems it is causing in your life? I just see alot of people saying that weed is spiritual and can help you bring closer to god and I just think That's just retarded I mean I think we all started smoking for the same reason more or less... To help us space out from all the problems in our life. Am I right?

[flamingskullballs]

well i do smoke because i believe in the seperation of body from mind...and i think that being stoned is just that, the conciousness and sub-concious seperating into two beings, and pulling away from the body (though not fully, unless you have an out of body experience)...but yes, i have seen the problems it has caused...i have lost friends, angered family, and spent too much of my life in lockup...

[RastaKaze]

I hear that. It's just funny how no one every talks of the negative aspects. Don't get me wrong, I love to smoke, but I think we can all agree bein' stoned can make it pretty easy to screw off...

[RastaKaze]

Interesting take on the seperation of body and soul BTW...

[beachguy in thongs]

I don't see it hindering anything.

[ADaisyChain]

It hinders you if you let it. -shrugs-

If you're in a position in life where smoking pot won't mess stuff up for you and you use moderation appropriate to your regular life, tolerance, and budget, than I don't see it hindering anything.

Pot's no different then anything else people enjoy.

well man guess what? i think everything in life that we like is an sort of escape from the cruel reality, from our porbs, etc

just take music for example. weed, yes. it may help with some problems. but it must not be an escape to your problems to FORGET em. it can be an escape to a problem your are working on to SOLVE.

i think this is the big difference it makes, in any drugs or thing u enjoy

[flamingskullballs]

Interesting take on the seperation of body and soul BTW...thanks, i try to think on that a lot

good point...but i dont think EVERYTHING is to get away...some things, like food and water, are to keep those problems...unless the problem is no food and contaminated water, then your just solving it ;)

[Caruso329]

Anything we do that is not absolutely 100% necessary for survival is a want, not a need. A want is something we do because we enjoy it. ANYTHING, want or need, can be abused, thus becoming a drug, and used as a means to escape or hide from reality. People are addicted to alcohol, nicotine, marijuana (psychologically, not physcially), food, religion, exercise, careers, relationships, sex, leadership, etc. and EVERY HUMAN uses at least one thing as a drug. I would bet my life that there is no human being who does not have at least one want and uses that want to be happy. Its human nature to try and be happy. So I think that marijuana can be used to be happy, and thus escape reality, but as long as its not hurting the user's reality (they don't feel negative effects in school, work, relationships, etc.) then it is okay to have that escape and use it as often as possible.

[drboots13]

I smoked weed because i was curious not to free myself from problems. Stop assuming that you can speak for everyone because its rediculous. EVen though i wasnt looking for it i realized a lot of things that were wrong with me. I realized how to be myself and i did gain a deeper understanding of who i actually am.

[wes dawg]

Personally, I find that when I smoke weed it makes me think about my problems alot more, and this can ruin the high for me, so when I'm not stoned I remember what the problems in my life are that I realized when I was stoned, and try and fix 'em. That way the next time I get stoned, I have nothing to worry about.

[flamingskullballs]

when i get stoned, i feel as if the marijuana is affecting me

[Shelbay]

It's a part of my life and will be until I die,I enjoy it and I need it..so what? I stopped caring what anyone had to say about it a long time ago...And as far as forgetting when I smoke..heck yes..some things you don't want to remember and I like feeling good. I really hope the younger generation can do a better job than we have about legalization.

[Reefer Rogue]

Smoking weed is the devil.

[smokincajun]

If you're looking to get ahead, he's right - smoking isn't going to get you there. The only thing that is pretty much guaranteed is that if you get caught by the fuzz, you're going to pay (literally - fines, court costs, whatever).

Whenever I do things I enjoy doing (fishing, mountain biking, hiking, etc), I enjoy getting high. The good thing is that I can enjoy doing these things WITHOUT getting high too; I think that's the important thing. If you can't enjoy doing things without being high, then thats when you're heading down the wrong road and you're depending on weed to make you content or happy.

[daves19]

Gees! Really interesting input here! This is what i like about pot, if you are in control of yourself, it won't harm you...And the greatest thing of all (and i am not talking for everybody but for me more specifically) pot made me learn how to be in control of things...so it's really who you are that will define if pot is good, neutral or bad for you...

It also depend on what are your priority in life...if you don't care about being a lazy bastard pot won't get you more motivated, but you will still be a good person...The only thing that brings negative to pot is it's illegality...People will judge you because you smoke, so smoking is not the problem, but the people that cannot accept it...

People being close minded is the real problem, but we cannot blame them.

-Peace out

[UnViaje]

pot made me learn how to be in control of things...so it's really who you are that will define if pot is good, neutral or bad for you...
same opinion here, thats on point man :thumbsup:

[beachguy in thongs]

Anything we do that is not absolutely 100% necessary for survival is a want, not a need.
So my wanting proper vision and deafening of foot pain, is not needed. I'm gonna mark it down as 100% necessary to survive, because without it, my life can't even compare to before the Brain Injury, at least with it, I'm painless.

Is it necessary to live every second of your day without pain? No.
With pain? No.

I want to not live with pain. Pot is 100% necessary for survival if I want to live under those conditions.

[ArtRollins]

You are an idiot. Yes, there are many plausable medical uses for marijuana, but in the end, when it comes down to you and your usage, you realize it's an inhibitor, right?

Ya man! You got it. Chew on it tight man. Yah. It inhibi me too. Ya man! Now man it hold me back man. Yah man, I smoke and I dont move. Ya man, I stole from my mother to buy a joint man. Yah man, I smoked it, and I went out and killed everyone I saw cause it inhibied my nice bone. Without my nicebone I just a joker, so I jokin boy. Yah man. Music dun it, music n pot ya know, sycosis.

was a inihibotori anywayz? I use an inhibitor when my nose gets plugged. I smoke that skunk inhibiterz. You knoz the onz that is 20 billion times more potent that Anslingers crap that they killed dem monkeys - shootin em in da brain. You dune dat, shoot pot in da brain? Yah man, fact! Read his book! You know? Ok, sorry. Ja live!

Yah man, it inhibit my to rise up. I smoke 2 joints in the morning, well den I smoking 2 more for that. Well, now it time to smoke 2 joints, and then I smoke 2 more. Time to get up, get out side, and now to smoke 2 joints. Well once I dun dat, time to smoke two more, and I still aint inhibited yet. So's I walkz on down to old Park streets and gets me two more joints, but da boys dont let go, we smoke two more, and then I smoke two joints. But dat aint all about inhibitin that smoke, cause I smoked up two more joints, I headed back home where I smoked two more, and then, hell, I smoked two joints fer dat. Well, I den smokin 2 joints and you gotta smoke two too, and den lets smoke two joints for dat inhibitin too and den come back with 2.

So, believe me, I know inhibitin! What you mean?

[psychopixi]

I didn't start smoking pot to escape any problems, I started because it looked like a fun experience. And so far that's still right. It's still something I enjoy doing, and the experience is still a pleasant one.

I think that it would start to become a bad thing if I couldn't enjoy doing things without being high while doing them, or if it got to the point where I felt like I needed to get stoned.

At the moment it's not a big deal if I can't pick up, cause I can do other things to amuse myself, and while I may think "it'd be nice to have a joint now", it's not a problem when I can't.

I don't see any negative effects in my life. I'm still doing well academically, and I don't turn up to work stoned. I go out less now, but that's more a result of living in the city center and having all my friends come to me.

I smoke cigarettes anyway, so I'm not even sure that I could pin any health problems on marijuana alone, and I'm feeling perfectly healthy apart from a slight cold!

So, no; I don't think pot is a hinderance in my life, and if it's not a problem for me then I reckon that's enough to prove that the drug itself isn't a problem, it's the people who abuse it that have the problem - it's them, and not the drug.

[daves19]

Like frank zappa said : it's not the drug itself the problem, it's when people taking it start to act like assholes..." -Amen

Yah, big daddy. You get those THC receptors going with that great "natural high". Cool.

I love that buzz from the fuzz on the plant. You Gestapo daddy type DEA paid buggers should go to your own forums. These are really for stoners and if you need information read, if you are here to spread the disease of propaganda, YUK! You will get pissed on - consider this the first of urination.

At least get in touch with Torog, he had a better come on. You are like someoneâ??s nightmare of a father coming into a smokerâ??s den telling every stoned freak how high you get on your sport. Cool, sit down and smoke? What? Only want to tell me you get high on sport. Well, go sport then, what are you doing here?

Weed smoking is beyond cool, you obviously are a drone, and never tried it. You could actually break with the program; take the right pill this time? No, you cant, your boss is watching. Sorry dude, you are an open target in a Cannabis forum. So enjoy your shift, and look forward to when you can go back to the lockers and snap towels at your naked buds in the showers. Manly stuff, I know.

Hey, I did a great review of a vaporizer you can take and use with your bike up in the mountains. It was great to be on top of the mountain and pull out that vapriryes unit. Watching that sunset could not be beat, and the great feeling, smooth sweet taste of Marleys Collie - like bubble gum ya know - just remembering gets me going.

Anyway, just did a great smoke two joints thing your other buds probably read, go enjoy. I am off for two more joints too!

[Savage Nature]

I find when I toke I can focus on my schoolwork alot better. If I have a test and I end up being high for it and on said test there is a question that I did in a previous class while high I have a flashback and know the answer.

I love weed, it sooths me and makes me just... happy with life! If I have a major problem I accept it for what it is and acknowledge the fact that there might not be anything I can do about it and to just let it go... weed has only helped me for the better and until it starts affecting me negatively I am going to keep doing it.

[smokincajun]

I never said I got high from doing other things, just that I can enjoy them without getting high. I actually like doing them more high most of the time. Unfortunately, I'm dry or I'd be high. And please smoke two for me. I'll have some this weekend and we can burn if you'd like...I promise I won't wig since I've never smoked before. Just giving my input like you. It's all good though...keeps it interesting!

[robert42]

i dont see no hinderance,

it can if you let it rule you life, you shouldnt really smoke in the morning if you got shit to do cos that CAN be bad, but trust me pots saved more peoples lives then ruined it

[Fengzi]

You are an idiot. Yes, there are many plausable medical uses for marijuana, but in the end, when it comes down to you and your usage, you realize it's an inhibitor, right?


If you're looking to get ahead, he's right - smoking isn't going to get you there. The only thing that is pretty much guaranteed is that if you get caught by the fuzz, you're going to pay (literally - fines, court costs, whatever). .

I'm not sure what weed is supposed to inhibit. It never prevented me from doing anything. As far as getting ahead is concerned, yes, smoking isn't going to get you there. It also isn't going to prevent you from getting there, however. It all depends on the person.

I've been smoking weed since I was 12 or 13 years old. I'm 36 now so you do the math. Since I've started smoking I've learned to scuba dive. I've learned to speak, read and write Chinese. I graduated college with a double major and with honors. I've travelled the world. I did some pretty serious rock climbing and mountaineering. I've become a father and purchased my own home. I'm currently an executive in the High Tech industry, bringing home a pretty decent paycheck. I did all this while smoking weed reguarly, doing a lot of acid, and eating large quantities of shrooms. Now I'm not trying to claim that I'm hot shit or anything. I really don't think I'm any better than anyone else. I just wanted to point out that smoking weed, and using other drugs, never inhibited me from doing anything.



Whenever I do things I enjoy doing (fishing, mountain biking, hiking, etc), I enjoy getting high. The good thing is that I can enjoy doing these things WITHOUT getting high too; I think that's the important thing. If you can't enjoy doing things without being high, then thats when you're heading down the wrong road and you're depending on weed to make you content or happy. Now this is one of the smartest comments I've read on this board in a long time. This right here is the key. Weed should be used to enhance things that you already do. Weed shouldn't become the thing that you do. It's kind of like putting salt on your food. A little bit here and there makes things a whole lot tastier. If you just start eating spoonfuls of it though, you're gonna fuck yourself up.

So, believe me, I know inhibitin! What you mean?

You have it all wrong. It's spelled "inhabiting" or "inhabit", not "inhibiting", Pot doesn't inhibit, it exhibits.

[beachguy in thongs]

HERE'S YOUR QUOTE, REWORDED...Art.

Ya man! You got it. Chew on it tight man. Yah. It inhabit me too. Ya man! Now man it hold me back man. Yah man, I smoke and I dont move. Ya man, I stole from my mother to buy a joint man. Yah man, I smoked it, and I went out and killed everyone I saw cause it inhabited my nice bone. Without my nicebone I just a joker, so I jokin boy. Yah man.

[ArtRollins]

It's like the salt of life.

Hey, I agree, great things can be enjoyed with and without. Yet in this persons experience everything goes better with cali.

Hey, I thought I did a nice diddy for you all and I have smoked at least 10 grams of the finest already today. I could have edited the end, but it is pretty good for a couple minutes.

[Reefer Rogue]

Being perfectly honest here, i don't see cannabis as a hindrance. For some, maybe. For me, no.

[Caruso329]

So my wanting proper vision and deafening of foot pain, is not needed. I'm gonna mark it down as 100% necessary to survive, because without it, my life can't even compare to before the Brain Injury, at least with it, I'm painless.

Is it necessary to live every second of your day without pain? No.
With pain? No.

I want to not live with pain. Pot is 100% necessary for survival if I want to live under those conditions.

You wanting proper vision is a want.
Because it is possible to live a full life with vision that is below normal.
Relief of pain, as long as the pain is not overly decapcitating, is a want.
Because you can live a full life with pain as long as it is not inhibiting your normal behavior.
Is it necessary to live every second of your day withuot pain? No, as long as the pain isn't overly inhibiting.
Is it necessary to live every second of your day with pain? No, but you can as long as the pain isn't.. what class? Overly inhibiting.
You WANT to not live with pain. Pot is 100% necessary not for survival, but only necessary to fulfill a HUMAN DESIRE you have.
So I still support my original statement: "Anything we do that is not absolutely 100% necessary for survival is a want, not a need."

[beachguy in thongs]

"Anything we do that is not absolutely 100% necessary for survival is a want, not a need."
Your analogy, down to a tee, is like:

If you want to live, then survival is needed.

It is absolutely 100% necessary for me to live, as God intended me to live, or as I was born, or as I lived the first nineteen years of my life, and smoke Weed.

I lived 19 years without chronic pain.
I shouldn't have to live the rest of my life with it and Marijuana, not only suppresses the pain, but gives me a restoration feeling.

No one is gonna say that I "want" Pot. I need Pot.

My choices:

Herb
Chronic Pain
Epileptic Medication

Make a choice for me, please Caruso.

I want you to make a choice. Because, I don't want to have, only, those three choices, but I do.

So, if I don't want Herb, then you are telling me that I want Chronic Pain or Epileptic Medication.

I know you didn't ask me, but I'd stick with the weed.

All Art's talk about vaporizing and his site has me thinking about it out. I'm going to attempt to fab up a homemade job before shelling out any serious dough on a real one. Had some health issues myself in the past, so I'm into getting high the "healthy way"!

[radioned]

i think smoking pot actually opens up your eyes to alot of things people dont want you to know or see goverments like people just to follow on on the zombie 9-5 life and not get ideas etc and have us by the balls by calling us drug users etc one day the truth will out

beachguy, your pain to you is overly debilitating, you can't survive with chronic pain. So, you do need herb. I was just a little confused as to your situation. I think I told you as long as the pain was uncontrollable then herb, or something to control it, is necessary, but maybe you missed that. Anyways, cheers.

[beachguy in thongs]

CARUSO329 (I used your proper name, do you like that?), well, I guess it's kind of pointless, now, but I just wanted to show that we all have different needs.

People with Brain Injuries have different chemistry going on. Every Trauma case is different. Where the Brain is injured, another part steps up.

This is gonna sound funny, but POT may have saved my life. I was so close to death (last day on life support) that the Neuroprotective actions of the Herb I'd smoked the previous month, especially those on the hippocampus and it's release of Anandamides and Glucose-something after Brain-trauma, may have been the slightest difference between Life and Death.

Post-Injury was the shock. I'm gonna write a little poem.

The crack smoked like nothing.
The coke was not the same.
The acid, lamer than aspirin.
Now, everyone says I'm insane.

But, because of my head
Thank you skull, I'm not dead
The pot affects me twenty-six times more than a non-head injured person.

[Euphoric]

Wow, I'm offended people are talking smack about the herb.

Cannabis helps open doors. For me, it is in no way a hindrance. I will have to bitchslap u now.
