Am I the only Forumosan who's ever smoked pot?

[sandman]

...in my experience it was always the cooler people who were out havingn fun and confident enough in themselves that they didnt need drugs to

1. talk
2. meet people
3. have fun
4. talk to girls
...

"cooler people"...hee hee, you know, we had a completely different term for you guys...

Sure, but when youy were in school this guy [ozzy osborne] was cool.. now look at him

Well, just look at Ozzie Osbourne, for Christ's sake.'

Damn tootin! Exremely wealthy and having a fucking BALL!

Anyways, because someone mentioned that a scientist was sacked in the UK for speaking out against the government policy, here is a comment from 'another advisor', who won the argument to form British gov.

Well, that's never going to work as a deterrent for me -- I simply don't have the bazongas, the teeth or the bubble butt. Plus, I'm more than twice her age, have a boring-ass desk-jockey job, still have my kid, and still have fun with chemicals when I've a mind, as well as pursuing a wide variety of extra-curricular amusements in the great outdoors. Moderation in all things is a great maxim. You can do pretty much anything in moderation, even, GASP! Butter!

and don't forget "including moderation".

Whoever stated that they were going to put vending machines in schools filled with joints so kids could have access to them? Do not distort the facts.

What does legalizationmean??? To be dispensed by pharmacists on written prescription basis only??? Ciggies and wine are avaailable at kiosks and 7-11s.......

By continuing to condone alcohol and tobacco you are handing your support to big alcohol and tobacco companies which kills thousands of people every year.If you don't think marijuana should be legalized than you can't condone alcohol and tobacco without being a hypocrit.

If you are calling me a hypocrite, READ my posts. I don't condone either. I am just wondering aloud if Marijuana is really as harmless or as harmful as coffee.

I am just wondering aloud if Marijuana is really as harmless or as harmful as coffee.

In my personal experience -- almost 40 years of both -- I'd say absolutely not.

You didn't start smoking until you were 35? Shiiit.

Personally I have also eaten and drank pot. Had a glass of ice cold smoke once too. Best pint ever.

[occhimarroni]

If the argument is that pot is harmful because there are carcinogens in the smoke, then people will just eat it. If your argument is that it makes you fat and lazy and then as Sandman said everything in moderation. Certainly doesn't seem reason to me to ban it from consenting adults. Then again it's for the children so we should ban everything from consenting adults - including sex.

Don't be sad, at least you made it to wear a skirt, thats more than most of us can say about ourself.

To the topic, well never did anything illegal, like ever, of course. Growing up in a beer culture country didn't help much in avoiding that, so yes I had a beer once I think.
Never started smoking, or injecting or something like that, but I tried some of this funny leaves (of course just in the areas of the world where they are legal, just in case you wondered).

Oh, and yesterday I had a coffee, guess that makes me a real bad guy now.

It seems to me this poll is deeply flawed. It excludes the drug that affects me most. Women.
They make me feel so good one night, and leave me with such big head aches the next day.
They cause me to do all sorts of stupid and dangerous things when I crave them.
They have made me waste an incredible ammount of money.
Once you have started, you probably will not be able to stop (well me at least).
Clearly showing all the symptoms of a dangerous drug.
Somehow between knowing the damage and pleasure I derive from women and alcohol I never needed to want to start on a third drug.
