As I have found out during this dry spell which has lasted almost 2 weeks, no, I do not need weed to be happy. I was thinking about happiness last night, and decided that there are three kinds of happiness you can obtain.

The first is physiological happiness. You get this through intoxicating drugs, and fulfilling bodily desires like eating, sleeping, peeing, orgasming, being warm, etc. The second is social happiness. This includes things like love, hanging out with friends, humor, etc. The third is intellectual happiness. This is the joy you get from learning interesting information.

By no means does not having one kind of physiological happiness prevent me from achieving happiness in its other forms.
