Im 21 and yeah tried it ... well can't use the term "try" I use to smoke it and the most that ever had happened to me wat I as getting freaked out because I couldn't function because I smoked way too much ... oh and the tim that I smoked it not knowing it was laced and thought the lagoon creatures were comming to eat me ... but hey as my uncle told me from a young age almost every one tires it and there is nothing "addictive" in it unless you blend with tobacco and the nicotine would be the only addictive thing...

This long story short : I did smoke it, I don't smoke it now, I will prob never smoke it again, and your not missing anything if you don't smoke it, if you you will miss more in your life if you do smoke it!

Well, technically, they are missing something. It may not be worth it, but not trying something is eternal ignorance.

People told me that shit too, but you definitely can get high the first time. I smoked a bit less than a nickel bag's worth my first time and I was pretty blazed. It was definitely less potent than my later times though. I guess because I smoked a lot of hookah/cigarettes/cigars before, I knew how to take in correctly, which probably helped (although.. you're not supposed to inhale hookah/cigars )

And yes, it's illegal, big fucking whoop. Just don't be dumb and smoke in public and don't carry it around, and you won't get caught. I've only ever heard of two times when people I knew got caught. 1) they broke into a building and smoked 2) they were carrying an ounce in the front seat, were high, and were speeding. And the funny thing is, those kids barely got anything on their records because they fought the case in court. My point is, you have to try to get caught.

Honestly, I don't think smoking ganja is that big of a deal. Most of these kids that are telling you not to haven't ever smoked or probably even had the chance, but once you've experienced it, you realize it's not that big as it's made out to be sometimes.

The euphoria is great and all, but make you sure you don't smoke too much. I made the mistake of smoking a wholeee lot of shit once. It's much easier to take in too much rather something like beer where it takes a while to ingest and is often more difficult to take in. I bugged out for like 3 hours. I had the memory span of about 7 seconds, and I kept forgetting everything. I had tunnel vision like crazy and I just kept blinking. I could barely walk and I was even hallucinating to a point. Could not have a conversation and I thought I was dreaming.

And make sure you know the person who hooks you up. I've gotten ripped off a few times by people idk.

One thing you should know, is that it's bullshit, half the stuff schools/government teach, or it's misleading.

In a book at school, NEW book, like, this year, or last year, produced... it says that "the dangers of marijuana not only stem from the plant itself, but because it is commonly laced with more dangerous drugs. It can be laced with crack, or even LSD."

LOL

One, they say or even LSD, as if it's worse for you than crack, and two, lacing it with acid (lsd) wouldn't do anything at all, cause you can't smoke acid... Besides, noone (at least where I live) laces their weed, it's a waste of money, and it's pointless.

Nothing wrong with smoking some once in a while. I have two friends that smoke it every day multiple times, I think that's stupid but I'm not their mother...
My english professor was a huge pothead (maybe still is, idk). I'm pretty sure he's a genius in literature, I've had two classes so far but just from these two classes it's evident he lead a much more interesting life than most people will...I'm not saying that's because of weed, I'm just saying, weed won't make you into a retarded person.

Pot is one of those things that gives me a bad impression of the person doing it from the moment they do it.

Never plan on doing it, ever.

Nothing like judging people, and being completely unreasonable. Judging people on things as minor as weed is one of those things that gives me an absolutely horrid impression of you, right now.

Yeah true I will give that to you ... Im not against it what so ever unless you are the ons saying "awe dude im so ******* stoned uhh yeah man" my boyfriend smokes it everyday and yes more then once and it only calms his nerves so to say....but you are not missing "much" buy not smoking it lol (can't say anything) lol

Edit: Fact smoking cigarettes will kill you faster then weed, and smoking cigarettes is addictive where weed isn't! .... speaking of cigarettes "smoke break"

Agreed
If you listen to any good music, chances are they smoke (just a correlation of course). Which probably makes you a hypocrite.

Eh. I don't smoke weed anymore (two years clean). But God, sometimes after working for 10~12 hours I just wanna come home and burn. Good thing my self control is a lot stronger than it was 2 years ago. xD

Um, acid will effect you if it touches your mouth. And my friend smoked laced weed once, so I don't think it's that uncommon.

[nox]

*shakes head* I'm sorry but every day if you actually do that is just like... messed up. That's as bad as drinking every day.

the severity of the effect is obviously dependent on how much you drink/smoke, my mom drinks a glass of red wine every night for who knows how long and the doctors and scientists say that can only help. it's essentially the same with marijuana, if you can control yourself and understand your limits then it's fine, there is a big difference between being a little buzzed and completely shitfaced.

I had quit for a while, but recently started smoking again.

amagius how you been man

[Grizzly]

But you can just have a glass of wine every day and you won't be looking to get drunk.

On the other hand, you could smoke marijuana everyday but you're probably looking to get high. Smoking enough weed to get you high every day will likely have long-term effects on you. I'm only saying this because I have a friend who gets high.. not even every day, but he does smoke a lot on a weekly basis. And he just looks and sounds.. dumb. I'm confident that it's altered his brain functioning because he doens't do any other drugs much.

[Amagius]

Ah, pretty good; good to see you to. I've just missed these forums, so after getting from a concert, I logged on and it seemed like little had changed, so I thought I'd just reinject myself and hit the ground running.

You?

^what he said. Mostly people do drink that glass of wine for health benefits even though... well... some studies prove a glass of grape juice is just as good for you if not better I was mostly meaning those who like do it to get drunk which there are a LOT of people who do drink like every day or pretty much every day just because. I don't think the majority of people who do it every day aren't looking for anything BUT getting high or feeding an addiction (yes, omg people are actually addicted to this). Which is why it's bad. Depending on any substance so much that you want to do it daily is kinda... I don't know. Weird and possibly problematic.

And maybe this is a stereotype but in high school you pretty much knew everyone who smoked (not relating it to stupidity but they were REALLY open about letting everyone know). The ones who did it in the morning and during lunch or after school like every day were really fucked up and kinda slow. Probably because they were high at school too. I have no respect for people who wish to be high at school as they need to get their priorities straight. Just like I have no love for alcoholics either. They need help.

i don't smoke everyday, but when i do smoke on the weekdays it's only a tiny bit, and i do it to unwind. i can concentrate a lot better when i'm relaxed, so one or two small hits through my bubbler can help quite a bit.

no idea what to say about your friend, the stupid smokers i know were stupid from the getgo.

to anyone who is honestly interested in smoking, my only suggestion is that you try it more than a couple times. it is not the kind of drug that you can take once and actually experience it, because it'll prolly take a bit before you get anything besides coughing out of it.

[Grizzly]

Oh, I never heard of people that smoke that little. I guess your a special case then.

[pyke]

Darn, So I never really got cool points for letting my friend light my back on fire?

Totally different, but you still don't get cool points.

LMAO!!!

And you know that your old prof still does . If he's anything like my friends parents anyway.

[philywilly]

I'm a regular smoker.. so I speak with experience when I say that it's better to not start, but if you do, it's not such a big deal. There's nothing wrong if you don't abuse.

By the not start part, I mean that it's much easier to try and not do a drug if you've never experienced it before.

I haven't read the whole thread, but if no one's posted this link before, I'd suggest you read up on erowid.com just so you know what you're smoking.

While alcohol is just as much a drug as mescaline or acetaminophen [--butchered that one!], the word "drug" has some evil connotation to that make most ignore the "better" instances of them.

Sorry when people misspell that word it kinda bugs me.

Did you know that coffee is a psychotropic substance? Therefore a 'drug'.

i didn't mean it that way, that would be dwelling on the word which is exactly what i was calling her out on. i wanted to know if alcohol was outlawed tomorrow and considered an "illicit drug", would she stop drinking and hold to her vow
