This is a discussion thread about Marijuana, Cannabis, Weed, Dank, 420, Pot. It is currently legal in a few states, though they are regulating the usage of it.
contrary to popular belief, weed doesnt cause cancer, it's like alcohol, impairs your motor skills. that's about it.
I figure you young kids will be eventually come into contact with it once you hit your college/high school years, and it would be good to dispel some wrong and wayward thinking brought on by the government.
so please have fun, ask questions, keep it lighthearted.
For others who partake in god's choice smokes please give me some of your favorite dank
Weed is legal in a couple of states, cali, colorado. up in Canada, Vancouver has legalized weed. Amsterdam too.
It's a great experience really, not advocating you should try it, since it is also quite the expensive plant (prices are artificially inflated in legalized areas also for government control purposes)
come in contact meaning you'll see some people doing it/ or w/e or you'll see it online or something.
Ahh, I thought you were saying come in contact as in do the said drug. Sorry about the confusion. But yeah, no doing, most likely come in contact, yep. Might happen.
Eventually you'll come into some kind of contact with it. and I don't really understand why you say "no..."
Hmmm. I've never tried to smoke and don't intend to. My whole family smokes and my granny died because of it. I just don't like it. No matter how to try to make pot sound better than just a ciggarete I will never try it. Also I kinda hate the smell it puts off. Just makes me want to gag all the time when I see a buch of stoned high school kids or in the bathroom were there is always smoke.
My advice would be if you have never done don't start.

I think you are talking about cigarettes. Nobody has ever died from smoking marijuana, so I doubt it caused her death.

That's for smoking.
Marijuana isn't addictive. The only way you can become addicted to marijuana is if you use it as a crutch and smoke it all the time. This is similar to people who grow addicted to video games or eat when they are upset. The chances of becoming mentally addicted to marijuana, though, is slim to none.

yup, I'd have to say you nailed that one nemo
also question nemo, can we talk about favorite strains? or does that violate some legality issue? I also have some pictures taken in the Vancouver "Amsterdam" bar is it possible to post those? or no?
Ahh, Marijuana. I've personally never smoked it, but I really want to try, because I want to see what all the hype is about. The problem is, is that I'm not 18, and my parents are really uptight about alcohol and stuff. They say that pot is just a "gateway drug" that leads to drugs that are much much worse... Isn't pot better for you because there's not as much of the tar and stuff in it?
If smoking marijuana will upset your parents, then don't. If you absolutely must, don't get caught.

that is true, it also does not cause cancer like cigarettes do

I mean it is only a gateway drug, if you make it so. because personally I do not want to try other drugs to induce and even bigger stupor. Like I really do not see any point in that.
Recently I noticed, someone posted on my profile saying that because they didn't like cigarette smoke, they automatically assume that marijuana smoke is worse. Lemme clarify. Marijuana smoke contains no cancer causing agents like cigarette smoke does, as in Carcinogens. and medically speaking they're are really no ill side-effects of marijuana.
Cigarette smoke is so much worse because most tobacco companies add like 1,500 extra chemicals to the tobacco and the wrapper to make them more powerful and addictive.

They do that to Chicken Nuggets to, just so you know...

From what I've understood, marijuana causes the sensation of pleasure, although it's far from real.
THC acts upon specific sites in the brain, called cannabinoid receptors, kicking off a series of cellular reactions that ultimately lead to the âhighâ that users experience when they smoke marijuana. Some brain areas have many cannabinoid receptors; others have few or none. The highest density of cannabinoid receptors are found in parts of the brain that influence pleasure, memory, thoughts, concentration, sensory and time perception, and coordinated movement.1
Interesting... And it makes you stupid according to this quote:
Not surprisingly, marijuana intoxication can cause distorted perceptions, impaired coordination, difficulty in thinking and problem solving, and problems with learning and memory. Research has shown that marijuanaâs adverse impact on learning and memory can last for days or weeks after the acute effects of the drug wear off.2 As a result, someone who smokes marijuana every day may be functioning at a suboptimal intellectual level all of the time.
So if you smoke it, do it with caution and only a little bit.
They do that to Chicken Nuggets to, just so you know...
chicken nuggets are disgusting, I saw how they were made, from jaime oliver's food revolution
they grind up nasty chicken scraps into chicken muck then strain out the connective tissue and bone grindings. then they add some flavoring and some other chemicals, and shape it into the familiar shapes we see today, bread it and deep fry it. delicious.
So if you smoke it, do it with caution and only a little bit.
yea gives the new meaning to smoking yourself stupid lol
I also want to point out, that not all high people are extremely loud, MOst of the time they are really quiet if anything, I know I've stared at an apple for like 2 hours just thinking about what would happen if I had an apple house.
I personally, have never smoked marijuana. However, I fully advocate it being legalized, because, despite government lies, it isn't, in fact harmful. The war being waged against it is far more consequential than any THC rush.
I hate the crap that anti-drug sites, government, health classes try to fill your head with. Pot is one of the safest theraputical substances in existences, never-mind the fact that its both safer and more effective than a fair amount of legal drugs out there.
