Or has marijuana pretty much been a positive part of your life for the last 30 years?
Just a semi-joke observation here:

My mom (50+) has been smoking since, who knows, i'm going to say about 30-35 years, and she's going blind now. I mean her multitasking skills are immaculate. She can roll a joint, drive, and talk on the phone all at the same time without flinching, but cannot find the milk in the fridge when it's sitting in front of her. Other than that, I love her to death and she's pretty functional, law-abiding, God-fearing, human being that everyone knows her to be.

Now what I will say, and I understand that everyone bodies works in different ways, when she is on her smoking "kick", she gets a little touchy/attitudish. What can go from "plz vaccum the floor for me luv", can go to "wtf is wrong with you kids, vaccum the #@$# floor #$@##$..." without her daily intake.

So no, I haven't seen my mom brain fry like that egg on that commerical, or drown like the girl in the attic commerical. Besides her flucuations in her mood from not smoking (let's say 3 days-2 weeks@most), she's a beautiful, normal and functioning human being.

Unless it makes you go blind, but let's hope that just old age kicking in
MsStrawberrySwisher Reviewed by MsStrawberrySwisher on . every day smoker over 30 years :rolleyes: Ok, here we go. I have been an everyday smoker for over 30 years (not counting a couple of dry spells) hapily burning 3-6 joints a day, having been self employed for most of those years and not having to dwell on passing a drug test for employment. :smokin: I have only recently become aquainted with the prospects of having to pass one, as I have been offered a job oportunity doing something I might enjoy, if I do not have to alter the lifestyle I have grown to relish.:smokin: Rating: 5
