I'll be interested if they can take away the component of pot that makes potheads want to talk more about pot. Strange that in all their musing about stuff they never think "Hey, when I get high I don't get smarter, I just talk about inane bullshiat".

It sucks when you're about to go to your dealer, and your dealer texts you "Hey, do you know where I can pick up more bud?"

I suppose I shouldn't be too cynical. It's always good to have supporting data.

If you don't like potheads why are you hanging out with them?

The people I know who smoke pot don't talk about it half as much as the people I know who drink (or even just used to) talk about alcohol.

Why do you even care what he thinks? On the rare occasions I smoke, it's for my own pleasure, not to favorably impress some shiathead juicer on Fark.
Do what pleases you, without regard as to whether it pleases others - anybody who wants to criticize your personal habits is an asshole anyway.

You're missing the point. Half the joy of pot is that it makes us dumb enough to put up with blathering idiots like you on a daily basis. We don't want to be smarter when we're stoned. Being more intelligent than 98% of the people you encounter on a daily basis isn't really as fun as it sounds. It's farking tedious. Being stoned out of my gourd is the safe, enjoyable alternative to just farking strangling all of the 80 IQ mouthbreathers I'm surrounded by.

I'd agree.

Pretty much all my friends in various quarters are both stoners and drinkers, and it's the alcohol and alcohol induced activities that are the cause for more conversation. The weed is more like some passive background constant for them these days, which doesn't really warrant mentioning.

I used to smoke pot in my student days, but it farks me up too much. I'm already a space cadet; if I smoke I just sit in the corner in what must look like a catatonic state.

If only sitting on a bus wondering was the truth of it. Instead, most folks insist on speaking and ruining the illusion that there is anything resembling a thought process running through their little brains. The world is simply chock full of people that are very seriously lacking when it comes to critical thinking skills. If you have made it to adulthood without realizing this, i have bad news for you.

Don't you have some sexism or copyright infringement thread to be trolling or have you been laughed out of all of those already today?

Besides, you shouldn't be so mad that you are likely well below the 98% line. Be thankful. You have no idea what sort of gift that really is.

Notice how when disturbed he puffs up to appear larger to predators? We'll let him settle down for a few minutes and see if he starts to preen. Unfortunately, it is very rare that one of these creatures ever mates, so his efforts will likely be in vain.

Funny how you came in here immediately swinging for the fences and yet the most clever thing you stumbled upon thus far was a pot joke about SpongeBob. How painfully clever you must find yourself. Emphasis on painful. You've made my point better than I could ever hope to, however.

I think I described discussions with folks like you aptly in my very Boobies. "It's farking tedious." You've delivered in full.

I rest my case, your honor.

Actually, I get so high to the point whre im like

"Hey man, was that actually intelligent, or incredibly stupid because im high."

Friend - "says something, but im unsure what he said because im high, so I have to clarify it...which leads me to clarifying that."

it becomes a spiraling pattern of doubt

Cool study and article. Hopefully more will be done for this and other chemicals!

Note that it was British scientists who made the study.
I'm pretty sure it is still illegal to study MJ in the US, please correct me if I am wrong.

That point alone is full of questions.
Typically, if you consider something the enemy like our government does, you want to know as much as possible about it.
You cannot even compare weed to the Devil because Preachers seem to know a hell of a lot about the Devil.

So why is it forbidden to even study this horribly evil substance? It is the elephant in the room. Literally, and he is standing on my foot.

I might be wrong too, but I think you can - as long as you get approval from the DEA which seems to refuse all requests for any legitimate studies.

That point alone is full of questions.

Now, isn't this thread a response to an article about a study done on the active ingredients in marijuana? I may be mistaken, but I thought it was. Yet, rev dave asks: So why is it forbidden to even study this horribly evil substance? It is the elephant in the room. Literally, and he is standing on my foot.

And he asks it in a thread discussing an article about a marijuana (active ingredient) study. Is this an example of stoner thinking?

I am so-o-o-o-o thankful I quit smoking pot years ago. Being around both the stoned and the drunk is quite annoying unless you are joining them.
 
2012-01-09 11:27:58 AM
Not be like them, but tolerate them. It is not an ideal solution, but it is rather effective and saves me from being on some severe narcotic from the pharmacy.

Frankly, you are probably around stoned people every day and do not realize it. What you despise are stereotypical stoners, which I haven't seen or heard of since my college days. The vast majority of smokers are regular people, not your Half Baked stereotypical burnouts. You work with them, you game with them. I know guys working for the Defense Dept and major multi-national tech firms that, were I not a direct witness to it, I'd never believe could take a blunt to the dome and still be so incredibly capable.

Pot is a rather mild drug, especially in moderation. People who have been using it for years can appear as normal as a sober person, in say, a fast paced professional work environment.
