This girl who I am friends with asked me to smoke marijuana with her. I didn't say no.... but I didn't say yes. Because I don't know if I really should or not. Getting caught won't happen cause her parents don't care at all. But I don't know if it is worth harming my body to try it once.....what do you guys think? Any experiences?

i smoked for 5 years, was pretty much stoned for a whole 5 years

its nothing amazing mate, its just makes you ok with being bored. So basicly it stops you gettin up off your ass and doing something.

it took me 5 years to relise it sucks, everyone to their own tho

Posted by: fufu

Sure have. I have had no consistancy in my "habit" in the past 5 years. Sometimes I would go 1 month, 5 months, 10 months, a week, a fews days between using it.

Now how much do you really think it harms you? Think about it in total relativity. Look at everything you eat and drink, your sleeping habits, your mental habits, your physical activity - alot of factors in those things can harm you alot worse than smoking a bowl now and then.

People just blow it up to be bigger IMO because of all the bad media on it. Honestly, alot of people give two shits about smoking cigarettes but won't smoke pot.

btw, do it if you want to do it, if you don't - don't

Some people can be responsible with it and maintain their priorities. I for one cannot. When I smoke I don't want to do shit.

Yep don't like, won't touch it again.

W00T W00T good 4 you jodi, I got in a bad crash on the 31st but of 1999 n of course your gonna remember the date since it was "devil's night" aka Halloween right... But anyways yeah I smoked it for about 7years straight and its not true that it makes you stoopid lol it does how ever kill they Y chromosomes in your sperm cells, and while you are under the influence of Tetrahydrocannabinol aka THC they may experience that they say "huh" alot and or just have slow reaction time

No, I have never ever tried marijuana! Dope is for losers.

Posted by: Gemini_4ur_eyes

ohhh and to fully answer your question with my opinion and views.... GO WITH YOUR FIRST GUT FEELING....if you aren't ready to dabble with drugs then don't! But on the other side of my constantly disagreeing Geminian self I say what the hell you only live once....just don't let it get outta hand and lead to harder drugs like freebase some black tar heroin or meth! meth will take you addict you and you'll never fully come back from her ride cause you will constantly want her even if you haven't done it for 3 years you'll still get the cravings!

Personally I am gonna disagree with you on that KelJu! I think that most losers haven't lived a little... Some of the most down to earth, caring, giving, and faithful people I have met are or have been hooked on drugs in there time! If nothing else it boils down to experience whether bad ones or good ones you still have learned something from trying things out!
Where some of the loser, pompous, to good for everyone, self centered, egotistical pricks that I know, who act like people are lesser of a person then they are because of the fact that they have used a drug or drugs... are some of the worst I've ever met!!! Personally I can't tolerate alcoholics... alcohol KILLS way more then any disease, drug, virus, or cancer ever has!

Tried it once, absolutely hated the effects.. didn't do it again.

Posted by: dnich

I smoked for like 5 yrs and the whole 5 yrs i was a lazy pile of shit i didnt want to do anything other than smoke and smoke some more one day i was like this lazy shit sux so i quit cold turkey and im damn glad i did other wise id still be in the same spot smokin...never again

Posted by: goob

Smoked it for about 7 years. Could'nt really go without it for most of it.
Never what I'd call an overly social drug, made me feel a bit withdrawn.

The main problem is the fact that to some people it can trigger psychological problems, personally i was fine for years, but towards the end it made me quite paranoid and distrustful.

Still, the experience of having used it has made me a much more open minded person.

Posted by: KelJu

Just so you know, I was just kidding.

I have smoked weed off and on since I was 12. I never felt addicted, and I could set it down for a while anytime I had to. As I have gotten older, I have found myself needed it to help balance me out. I have type I bipolar disorder. I don't even consider it a disorder anymore, but rather just a personality trait. Doctors have pumped me full of so much shit to try and get my mood to stabilize, but I hate the way the medication makes me feel, and the side effects are hellish.

Since I don't take my medication, I have to have something to keep me centered, and pot does that perfectly with no side effects. I can smoke a blunt, then go workout like a machine, then smoke again on the way home from the gym then eat and go to bed.

Just remember, that drugs are tools whether it be illegal or prescription. You have to have the will power and common since to know when you are helping yourself or hurting yourself. If you have a strong mind, go for it. Drugs have done an infinite amount of good for me in my life, while at the same time I have seen drugs ruin others.

If you are happy with your life, why risk it. Pot truly is a Pandora's Box. Approach with caution.

To the original poster.

If you do end up doing it, make sure you are in a very safe and relaxed environment or else the whole experience may end up being one big anxiety attack.

Posted by: Nate K

Try it. See how you like it. Your opinion may change if you get accustomed to the feeling; that is if you choose to continue to try it.

Yeah, just remember that it's temporary if you feel uncomfortable.

Alcohol makes me feel dirty, spinny, fake and my body wants to throw up the substance.

I hate alcohol with a passion. I refuse to drink anymore, because I love my body too much, and alcohol is just too bad on my body.

Funny how you say that about alcohol. I was just thinking about the effects weed has on people and those very same effects are what people like. Those effects they desire, I hate. Anyway, I was thinking about that and then thought "well, someone will say how they dont like the way alcohol makes them feel..yadda yadda.." Then bam, you post shows up!

No I dont smoke, but its just cuz I dont like the effects. I normally dont care when people smoke either, but I do when girls smoke it.

Ill also disagree 100% about how weed is an "entry drug."

Yeah right, just like any sort of steroids is bad for you too huh.. Fucking media.

I don't believe in the notion of gateway drugs. It is just another way t omake pot look bad, when it is not.

If there were such a thing as a gateway drug, ephedrine would have been more so than pot. Someone told me meth was like Ephedrine x 100, so I did meth for about a year while I was working 2 jobs and going to college. One of the worst mistakes I have ever made, because it destroyed my body and my mind to some degree.

good thing you have been able to work your body back into shape

Thank you. I am lucky to have seen the dark side, and return back to the light unscaved. Many other friends I knew weren't so lucky. Some are in jail, some are in bad health, and others just completely ruined their lives. It hurts to see an old friend who use to be a beautiful girl, but now weighs 90lbs and looks horrible.

I have always defended the right for people to chose what they put in their bodies. Its our life to ruin was the way I saw it. I still believe that, but now I also believe it is our life to cherish, embrace, and respect. As you can see, I am a big believer in self responsibility. Still, I have seen drugs be used to harm people more than help.

Comedian Bill Hicks said it best.

Of course, it's best not to smoke anything.

I disagree 100%. You had me disagreeing by the word "proven."

How can that theory be tested? It cant. Youd have to deliberatley control a set of lives, give them weed, then watch to see if they want something 'better.'

Ive done weed...and Ive drank. Ive also tried a cigarette when I was 12. I have caffeine almost every day. Thats not much of an entry considering people use all those substances without ever being introduced to weed.

it depends on what your defininition of is is....

fine ill concede the point. pot can be a gateway drug

Posted by: AKIRA

Even still, I cant imagine how it could be branded that way. If you can for that, you can for a variety of other substances, like fatty foods will lead to worse fatty foods.

That expression just seems to split hairs.

ALMOST WITHOUT EXCEPTION, tobacco and alcohol are used BEFORE marijuana. The meme of marijuana as a "gateway drug" is just that. It has no basis in fact.

sure. and i have no problem considering these 2 as gateway drugs for minors. they would not however be considered gateway drugs for adults

Posted by: StanUk

I smoked it for a couple years whilst at a college and for the most part it made me quite a lazy s.o.b. It got to the point where most of what i would think about was when i would be smoking next etc etc. I've stopped it for the most part now and feel 10 times better, but i guess each to their own.

Posted by: BoneCrusher

Pot is the gateway of gateways because it's the first drug used by most.

SO you're a kid hanging out and you have a good buz. You've burned a few and now you have that kid kinda buz where EVERYTHING is fuggin hilarious. "Hey I got some shrooms ... " there ya are ... a bunch of kids doin shrooms. Did you do it because of the pot? Some will so no you still had free will and all that. But the situation led you to the opportunity that would not have existed had you been with kids that didn't smoke pot at all.

The kid that wants to explore pot will do so regardless of what mom and dad do. Where it goes from there will be a matter of opportunity though. Speed freaks tend to not hang with people that don't do speed. Same with other drug subcultures. If you have no priors of even smoking pot and try to hang with speed freaks you're like as not to just get an ass kicking as anything close to a bump.

It's the social situations you get into while hanging out with pot smokers that results in escalated drug use. I'm not even going to post the bazillion studies that have confirmed this. Google it yourself.

As far as how this theory can be tested use your head. If you have used drugs then ask yourself what the person doing the research would ask you. Did you smoke pot first or do hard drugs first? Did you decide while sober to go find and use your first hard drug? Were you stoned and in a social situation when you were first offered hard drugs? Now figure you're some kind of edumacated clinical research type person that has the priors to design a serious study. Add a few more well designed questions and multiply the test group by a really high number of people. You will wind up with an accurate look at "is or is not pot the gateway drug".

I wonder how many people decided no further drug use after using marijuana. Maybe it is good for people. What if drugs like cocaine, MDMA, shrooms and lsd were the norm? With pot, people can see how they react to altered perceptions. I'm sure some people stopped using drugs all together after having pot. Could be a good option for people to have.

Not even LSD would make that happen.

When I was 12, a friend and I went up to the mountains east of Burbank. We got up a 5 AM (a feat for 12 year olds) and headed out on a great Saturday morning. There was no real reason for going, other than the idea of simply doing it.

It was still dark when we got there. We went hiking until the sun came up. As the sun came up we sat on the pitchers mound of a baseball field and watched the sun crest the mountains (which has since sadly been replaced with a three-hole golf course).

My friend pulled out some bud and paper. About three ounces. We sat there, back to back, and smoked it all away. The next thing we knew, we were chasing quail through the brush, laughing hysterically the entire time. We must have stayed at it for over an hour.

Good times.

No, the gun laws in NYC are strict and Lee is anti gun.

2' piece of 3/8ths rigid conduit.
Post-it notes.
Scotch tape.
8 penny nail OR a large sewing needle.

If you have a file or a bench grinder then taper the tip of the nail into a smooth fine point. Roll the post-its into cones and slide the nails in to make a dart then tape them up so they hold their shape.

Slide the newly made dart into the conduit and trim the cone down so there is a smooth sliding action as the dart makes its way down the conduit.

Wallah. You have a home made blow gun that will shoot with great accuracy and WILL STICK INTO CINDER BLOCK WALLS AND METAL SIGNS.
