bbb Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (playing devil's advocate) but on the other hand, plenty of people do REALLY dumb things (or have emotional problems) the first time they drink, or when new to drinking, or even as regular drinkers. just giving another perspective I'm not suggesting to anybody that it would be a great idea to go out and get blasted.

ieatcrayonz Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I suggest you try it. Seriously. You will either like it or you won't. You will either handle it well, get a bit paranoid, weird, or perhaps you will feel nothing much at all. It won't hurt you. Just make sure you aren't driving, in a position where you need to be responsible for someone else, with someone you don't really trust, like, etc. If you are in a relaxed setting with an old and trusted friend, fire some up. Seriously. It's worth the shot, IMO. Great idea. I'd bet he's never thrown himself in front of a bus either. Should he try that? He will either like it or he won't. He will either handle it well, get a bit broken, splattered, or perhaps he will feel nothing much at all until he sees the light and walks toward it.

The Dean Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Great idea. I'd bet he's never thrown himself in front of a bus either. Should he try that? Only a crayon-eating sissy wouldn't try that, at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a crayon-eating sissy wouldn't try that, at least once. But, what if he likes it - he's going to be throwing himself at buses all the time.

Hey, a bus is big and it generally moves fairly slowly. If you can't get under the bus before it hits you, you really deserve to die. Dontcha think?

McBeane Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Good for you. I suggest you don't try it. Seriously. Those who suggest nothing bad can come of it are wrong. I, like many others, had their first panic attack after smoking it (not the first time smoking it by far, either). That is absurd. How can you even begin to justify blaming marijuana for someones panic attack? ESPECIALLY because it was not their first time smoking... On another note, the only reason that marijuana makes people paranoid is because it's illegal. If alcohol were illegal, people would be saying it had the same exact effect.

Just Jack Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I do not and have never smoked weed. Like jboy, I have never and have no intention of ever smoking weed. Like these two, I've never smoked. Not that I never had the opportunity, just never saw the appeal and had no interest. Alcohol is my drug of choice and I don't even use it that often either.

Booster4324 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) You cannot be serious? So you are against something you know little about? Link A lot depends upon the user's mental state before smoking, the environment and the user's expectations. Marijuana causes perceptual changes which make the user more aware of other peoples' feelings, enhance the enjoyment of music and give a general feeling of euphoria. It can also make the user feel agitated if they are in a situation which is not pleasant - if they are with strangers or trying to hide the fact that they are using - which is often referred to as a paranoia. Using marijuana with other drugs, such as alcohol, can make the user feel dizzy and disoriented. Edited November 20, 2010 by Booster4324 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ieatcrayonz Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 So you are against something you know little about? Link From the same page you linked at Ilovepotcuzimaloser.com: Panic Reactions The majority of all adverse responses to marijuana are panic reactions in which people begin to fear that they are dying or losing their minds. Panic reactions, or "bad trips", may become so severe as to be incapacitating. Smith (1981) reports that roughly 50% of marijuana smokers in the United States have on some occasion experienced this adverse reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you have to be pretty good at smoking pot to avoid it? Is that a marketable skill? Can it get people a job say, well, I don't know as a mannequin or maybe in a zombie movie after they beat out all the Canadians? And since when is being an animal lover bizzare? And I don't mean an animal lover in a "Big Cat" sort of way. Anyway I only have two hamsters and one comes and goes as she please because she is a mom. Plus Sammy is missing so right now I have none.

An unpublished study commissioned for Melissa and Doug revealed 80% of those who eat crayons experience severe stomach pains, and over 65% vomit after the experience. And yet this product is marketed to CHILDREN! While I wouldn't suggest children smoke pot, it probably would help the nausea caused by a stomach full of crayons.

BuffaloBill Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Way back when I was a kid, just didn't like it. Wine is fine. Ditto .... though I prefer Vodka or Bourbon to wine. The libertarian in me says legalize it and tax it like all of the other vices. As long as people are smoking in their own home and they are not our driving while high what's the harm? I tend to doubt the physical damage over the long term is much worse than sa someone who smokes cigs and drinks more than a couple every day.
