if someone caught you smoking, what would you excuse be? What would be the best explanation and best excuses or reasons on why you smoke? Many people smoke in secrecy, so what would your best excuse be if you wanted to tell someone that you smoke to someone that doesn't approve?
I would just say it like this__yea i smoke alittle what have ya __ then go to the kitchen and get some fruit loops...
sometimes being completely truthfull and keepin it real saves a lot of strange long drawn out situations.
when a cop pulls me over and im smoking --i just tell him yea im smoking and here it is ___3 times and just let go ...
The truth will set you free...:thumbsup:
I'm talking about in the sense of parents asking/catching you.
My all time favorite parent/stoner interaction would be my old roomate. After getting good and truly baked out of his gourd, he walks into his parents house with his bubbler still in his hand. Lets reiterate once more for good measure, with his bubbler still in his hand. He stops to pet his dogs, still holding the bubbler. He carries on a conversation with his mother, still holding that damn bubbler. Finally his mother decides to question him about his habits and what he's holding
"So, do you smoke a lot of pot?" she inquires. Clearly feeling more clever then he actually was at the moment, he responds with good, old fashioned stoner comedy:
"Occasionally...I smoke a lot."
It wasn't until he left that he realized the bubbler was still in his hand...
Haha funny story! I infact just bought a bubbler aswell. but still doesn't help me
EDIT: sorry that sounds kinds bitchy, it wasn't meant to
I'd give the same reason to everyone that I have always given and it isn't an excuse but simply my reason.
I LIKE IT !
if this person is big on religion or whatever I say "God says its okay"
Instant hush mode:D
I refuse to excuse myself for enjoying life by not harming anyone
*If you happen to be caught with a freshly lit joint*
Why? Why not? Just the tip. Just for a second. Just to see how it feels...
I go to school in Italy right now and it only consists of two buildings. There's a beautiful terrace on the third floor in Building B and it overlooks all of Rome. My 5 PM class was on the fourth floor, so a few minutes before class I decided to toke up on the terrace, not expecting anyone to come out. I only pack a three-hitter for this very reason.
Right when I get done smoking, someone comes out and instantly says "You smoking weed, man?" He had that long sideburn, glasses intellectual look so I wasn't sure if he was a student teacher of some sort, so I took the safe route by saying "What? uhh.. noo"
But then I figured out he was a student and was pretty cool, so I fessed up. So I guess my answer to the topic is I would deny deny deny until your credibility is built up, in which I then admit defeat.
If I was caught red handed I would say: "I'm smoking pot in order to cope with the 30 dead children in my basement..."
But seriously though it depends on how busted I was. If I was in the process of smoking a joint or something and my parents literally just walked in on me puffing it, then the only excuse I could come up with is that it helps with my art projects in school and is the reason why I have a 3.5 gpa.
But if I was caught because my eyes were red or because of the smell I would definitely deny deny deny by coming up with plausible excuses like "my eyes are red because I just cried and I'm going through a lot right now which I'd rather not discuss".
My parents never caught me, I straight out told them. My sister got caught, so I decided if I talked to them about it and what it is, they would understand.
Other then that, it depends on who is catching me. I would probably just tell them I choose it because it is safer then alcohol and doesn't leave you hungover the next day. Not to mention it doesn't make you do stupid shit, just forget shit.
If ever caught, I would simply say...Want a hit?:rasta:
I admit I smoke and im proud that im responsible and it helps my depression and if they are rational I try to explain my situation if they seem like the type that dislikes rational discourse, I don't bother explaining they are cut out of my life :PQuote:

My mind is a whirlwind of tangents, cross-references, random subjects, introspection, abstract conceptualization, and all around absurdity. Smoking weed is my coping skill that allows me to reach the meditative mindset I need to take control of the maelstrom. When Im in the zone I can break anything down to its smallest point and then break that in half; or adversely to zoom out of one perspective and visualize many different perspectives at once.. i.e. "the big picture." It calms me down and allows me to rationalize my thought process, as well as helps me to develop a peaceful and empathetic mindset that, with practice, I am able to transfer to my sober frame of mind. In other words, I can see all of my faults and work on them in an accellerated format to better myself when my time for smoking weed is past.
In actuality, although I wrote that last paragraph in the present tense, I have achieved those goals. I still smoke, but occassionally for pleasure and relaxation. I have found peace, and a better life. Although to be fair, most of my peace can be attributed to a very special female friend of mine.
Long story short, it helps you realize how to be a better person and to successfully apply those changes. Come up with several examples and have them well rehearsed though.. parents arent usually stupid, but they often want references :P
I don't think my parents ever figured it out and I never told them to this day. My son was pretty up front about it and although I would have preferred he wait until he was out of HS, I didn't make a big deal about it but just advised him to be careful and stay away from cops, chemicals and man made things. In other words, don't be stupid about it. His mother was not so pleased and still worries about it even though he's in his 20's and has since moved out and bought a house. All part of being a mom.
Yes, here:Quote:

Among Biblical verses Rastas quote as justifying the use of cannabis:
Genesis 1:11 "And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so."
Genesis 3:18 "... thou shalt eat the herb of the field."
Proverbs 15:17 "Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith."[2]
Psalms 104:14 "He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man."
