Well put, Res

And MJM, LOL!!!!! Hey, when's the next episode!?! Same Bat-time, same Bat-channel? Oh hey, i'm in it! Look I can see me on TV!! Wait.. I just flipped me off.. GHoSToKeR, you bastard, i'ma get you for that!! **shakes fist** If it wasn't for those pesky kids!

Aaaaaaaanyway... notanovice, here is why I think you see these boards as a "Soap opera"

When we're out with our friends, in public or not, alo of us have to hide our true selves.. We conform (consciously or not) to rules of ettiquette etc, we try to impress certain people, we try and seem funny or cool or whatever.. So when we're out we rarely act how we really are.. I mean, some people do, but most people act differently when they're around people they don't know at all or too well.. In other words, we put up a facade..

When I was younger and was at the point in my life (the time alot of guys go through as theyre growing up) where I was always trying to seem cool, to fit in, and at the same time trying to show off and be the funny one, I could rarely be myself..

But maturing (and smoking weed, to be honest) has changed that.. I'm of the mentality now where I think "if they dont like me/it, then its their loss, fuck 'em".. i'm more outspoken.. i care less about what people think

But, i dont always think like that.. in public or with other people i still occasionally have to stop myself saying or doing something that other people will frown upon... But, posting here i've met alot of like-minded, interesting people, so I can be as stupid as i want to be, as silly as i want, but i can also be as serious as i want.. i can go from posting about geese in one thread to posting about theology or physics in another thread..

also, pot-smokers tend to be 'from the same mould'.. i dont mean we all look/think/dress/talk the same, but we share a common ground.. similarly, alot of people act how they want to act here, and dont bite their tongue in case someone disapproves

now, you get a group of 10000 stoners from all walks of life, who are just being themselves and sayin what the fuck they want, in one 'place' and theres bound to be conflicts.. its as simple as that

sorry for the long winded post, lol

peace
