Does it make you feel intelligent to say that? That really was a nauseatingly flailing flaccid attempt to claw your way above the fray and proclaim superiority. ***.

Not surprised though, there will always be more massive sweeping generalizations from the uninformed and/or afraid who want to validate their assumptions with their own empty superficial commentary.

Really though, if it makes you feel any better--all of you out there--just feel free to cling to your cliche stoner stereotypes. Rest assured they are incorrect. Period.

Oh nice, its one of those people who is so terribly insecure that they attempt to glean some semblance of self esteem from the fact that "drugs are bad" and they would never lower themselves to the realms of psychological impairment from their use. Bet that doesn't stop you from getting wasted.
Drug use has been a part of the human experience since before recorded history, and as long as one maintains balance, responsible drug use is a valuable and enriching activity.

Keep funding D.A.R.E. Keep supporting Bush. Keep yourself ignorant, closed minded, and uninformed.

Keep yourself dumb, but most of all, keep yourself arrogant you backwards *** cliche.

word.

Madame Joy. Good read.

i think your one word away from using more big words than prowler. good job. how long did it take you to come up with all of them.

and btw, stating that abusing drugs is not intelligent doesnt make me feel any more intelligent, not doing so, however, does.

How many kids at your school have died from smoking pot?
Do you know how many marijuana overdoses there have been?

Zero.

Stay in school, kid. You have a lot to learn about life and if you know what's good for you you will think twice about the absolute drivel you seem to be chugging down. How old are you? 15? 16? And you say you support Bush? Do you understand the geopolitical sphere enough to back that up? I doubt it.

And you are here preaching about the evils of drugs (which, by the way, you encapsulate into a broad term of "drugs", which is already a massive fallacy) on the basis of the kid at your school who got hooked on Oxycontin and died of a heroin overdose when he couldn't afford the pharmacudical equivilent anymore, right?

Guess who helps the pharmacudical companys make lots of those Oxycontins that millions of kids get hooked on? The government.

The point is, you have absolutely, postively ZERO basis to preach to anyone about ANYTHING. You are barely coherent in your explainations, and your information is all stemming from propaganda and the casualties of your suburban school.

Shit is a lot more complex than "Drugs are bad and people who do drugs are doomed to failure."

I think people who barely think about anything beyond what they are told are doomed to failure, and you bet your barely-pubescent *** I could make a better argument for that than you have about drug use leading inevitably to ruin.

In closing, please die, or in lieu of this, PLEASE do not reproduce.

ahahahaha you're hilarious, I love it.

Finally a new member with a brain and the ability to form cohesive, coherent thoughts. Uncanny as it is, there's more ignorance on here regarding said subject matter than there tends to be in personal confrontations. Misinformed armchair theorists hiding behind computers and cognitive dissonance.

Mark endorses elementxero as ca.com's member of the week. And my endorsement, as we all realize, means a dåmn spot more than anyone elses around here because I'm old.

Yeah great grounds for criticism big guy, attack my vocabulary and compare me to a random other boardmember. Ouch.

However, you make an excellent point..........that I've been making this whole time.

ABUSING drugs is not intelligent. I agree wholeheartedly, and also feel intelligent for not ABUSING them.

My whole point throughout all of this is that it is ENTIRELY possible to be a RESPONSIBLE USER of drugs. Of course there will be people who can't handle that, and will base every waking moment of their lives around getting and using drugs, but in almost 100% of those cases there is other shit going on with those people.

I smoke pot around three to five times a week. I drink a few times a month. I do mushrooms every couple of years or so, and coccaine maybe once a year.

I have a good job with lots of upward mobility in IT at a software company. I'm going to be MCSE certified by the end of the summer and start doing some freelance network engineering/consulting. I live comfortably and I have an active and healthy family and social life.

I don't see the downside, frankly. Occaisional RESPONSIBLE drug use keeps me thinking. It stirs the pot. It keeps me from becoming too steeped in routines or ideas that would otherwise limit my potential to discover new things or look at something a different way.

It keeps me from being just another sweaty schmuck in a rut with no idea how they got there over the years and no clue how to pull themselves out.

Bet that above sweaty schmuck in a rut is how you view drug users though, isn't it?

Funny how character, judgement, and confidence tend to define a man more significantly than his indulgences, isn't it?

If using drugs that frequently works for you and your able to maintain a good life, good for you. Most people that I know and have talked to that use drugs on a regular basis are the ones that tend to abuse them and have no impulse or self control. So for the most part I have a lack of respect for "most" people that use drugs. Since I have seen what drug use can lead to, I personally refuse to let myself be put in any type of situation that could cause me to go down that particular path. I also feel it necessary to inform the above mentioned people of thier less than intelligent decsions. Anyways, im off work see you guys later.

I can definitely accept that. I just don't like your original sweeping generalization that only the unintelligent would smoke pot.

I don't think everyone should do drugs just to do drugs. For some people its a valuable tool, for others its an unshakable vice.

The same could be said for existence itself, really. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

Someone one this forum made a good point one time I wish I could remember who said it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif But their point was this : Smoking pot to enhance social activities while hanging out with freinds was great but when smoking pot became the only social activity his friends and him did while hanging out together, then it started to ****. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif This is so true and unfortuanatly it happens a lot.

i think all you people who think EVERYONE who smokes marijuana is absolutely doomed are entirlely wrong. for example, i'm a frequent potsmoker, but i'm in my second year of college, have a good job fora college kid, and handle my business when need handled.

i'm not on the curb beggin for change? yes i experimented w/ other drugs wen i was younger, but was merely 'experimenting' w/ no intentions of becoming a hardcore meth addict or crack feind what have u. but to say that for someone who does drugs is not going to succeed is a little farfetched imo. the way i see it, as long as you get you're shit done, then pot smoking is no worse then alcoholism but only by law.

Jesus i couldnt have said it better myself. I saw a show on how cavemen used to put the plants over a bonfire then put a tent over the bonfire and sit inside the tent rofl. But yeah in switzerland they actually sell it in shops (ive been there) and they treat it just like having a drink at dinner. Its very widely excepted over there so why not here?P.S. crack cocaine fries your brain
