I have never smoked pot, though had the chance to in the past. I mainly avoided it because I was never in what seemed like a good place to start experimenting with drugs - at parties, with lots of people I did not know. I know pot is supposed to be pretty harmless but given that I am on somewhat strong medication, I did not want to tempt fate if it had a bad effect on me. I have no problem with people who smoke weed occasionally, and would not be adverse to trying it if I was around a bunch of people I knew and felt somewhat comfortable. I know this all makes me sound like a dork but there it is.

I smoke daily. I've recently got into the habit of doing a grav squat before i leave for work in the mornings. It's a terrible dependency I have but it does smooth out the day. I was sober for like 3 days last week which is the longest in a while.
I don't have any prejudices towards people who don't. Everybody is dependent on something whether it's reasonable or not. And over the years I've learned that circumstances have no bearing on my mood. so i continue to do it because music usually sounds better and hanging out with people is more bearable.
i hope this answers your question.

I rarely drink, because first you have to hang out with your friends to drink, which both my close friends have boyfriends and have basically deserted me. :(

I should probably get perscribed to them, but I just don't have the motivation to see a doctor about it.

I don't really think too much about people that don't smoke up...it's not my business what people do or don't do.

They have serious potential to become habit forming and withdrawing/detoxing from benzos is really, really awful.

Speaking of doctors mindlessly perscribing Xanax to anyone and everyone, my general family physician perscribed my father Xanax the week that my mother left him, knowing that he was suicidal and a manic depressive. My father downed the whole bottle and all other medications he was perscribed to, he had to be rushed to the ER to get his stomach pumped so he wouldn't OD.

Not at the moment, and I don't intend to smoke right now until my week off for the edinburgh festival in august. I used to be a really hardcore stoner at college and uni. Since I moved away from Glasgow I tend to have periods where I'll have a break from smoking for a few weeks/months at a time, then have the odd smoke here or there.
I smoke quite often when I'm back in glasgow though, and if you catch me indoors in amsterdam it would be hard to find me at a time when I'm not smoking. I used to enjoy sitting and having a smoke with mates and doing movie marathons, but I don't know many tokers down here, which I think is a good thing at times.
I haven't smoked the widely available uk hash in about 3 & 1/2 years though. Do a search on hash and soap bar and you'll see why. Whenever I do smoke nowadays, it's only from folk I know who homegrow, or decent hash on the occassion it appears on the scene.

Ol' Couch Ass
03-10-2008, 12:34 PM
I was an everyday stoner from my senior year of high school through my fourth year of college. I was compelled to quit for a job and think it was for the best. I had gotten to the point that smoking pot was a pretty joyless experience and more the norm in preparation for a big night of sitting on my ass playing video games or watching TV. I think my biggest problem with marijuana was that it sucked the desire to be social right out of me. Typically when stoned I always wanted to get back to my own home and not socialize with anyone but close friends.
I still have to submit to drug testing but could see being a sporadic indulger if it was without consequence. I miss getting high and just screwing around with my guitar or piano. As for other people I have no problem with them smoking themselves retarded if they want to. However, as a few others have said all of my friends who are still daily smokers are pretty useless and retarded.

I smoke 2-3 bowls per day. I don't see what the big deal is if you are responsible enough. I work two jobs and I go to school. Hell I smoked right before my Latin test last week and got the highest (lol) grade in the class. I think it's ok as long as you go out and do stuff and not just sit on the couch wasting your life.

Perhaps I should've been more specific.
I went on some dates with this guy, then that little tirade and saying "I can't not smoke pot.." made me end going on dates.
I have very little patience for addicts of any kind. Probably comes from a couple of years with the same person who "used to be" a meth addict who then replaced that addiction with his routine and would become hysterical if his routine were broken in the slightest. That's why that ended; he would never want me as much as he wanted his schedule (and measured out food, workout routine, sleep time, wake time, meds for the day...it was insane).
I have really met maybe 10-15 (out of hundreds of people in my life in Chicago) who aren't addicts of some kind or "recovering" in this dumbshit gay world here.
I find pot to be fairly harmless compared to most shit I see, but it takes an intelligent human of any kind to have restraint and discipline even with that.

Yeah I hate smoking before going out to parties. I refuse to do it anymore and get some shit for it from one of my friends but whatever. When I smoke, I smoke to chill. It compliments the end of the night after the parties are dieing down. And usually when I smoke now it'll be at the end of the night to just listen to some music, watch tv, play some cod4, or just chill with some friends.
Also 21 years old and I can't see myself ever quitting permanently. I could easily do so if needed but there's really no reason to do so.

I think everyone should try it a few times. Those who classify it along with dangerous drugs are just plain misguided. I smoke quite often. I used to binge in college, but now I just smoke a small amount after work. Have been for years. If I'm drinking on the weekends, I usually don't smoke.
I've heard it's good to give it up for a month or two at a time, as someone mentioned, but I just haven't decided to be apart from it for that long. It really is practically harmless, yet, at the same time it enhances your senses, music, food, appreciation for comedy, etc. Strangely it decreases your productivity, but it increases your creativity.
Some people will inherently disapprove, but even they should agree that it's harmless enough to be decriminalized/legalized.
P.S. I pity anyone who hasn't heard SP while stoned.

Marijuana is a beautiful thing. I quit smoking regularly ten months ago and I quit smoking at all six months ago. I can't because I drive ten passenger vans in the mountains of Colorado. However, I can say that I'm really looking forward to that first stress free toke in April. I really don't think that marijuana is a weakness of any kind.
It's an experience enhancer at best and an excuse at worst. I've known wildly successful people that smoke and some total losers that smoke. One group use it as an enhancement to what already is, the other use it as a falsified justification for not accomplishing anything. If you remove the active ingredient from the equation, the successful will still be successful and the losers will still be losers. Break it down and it will all be up to the individual - not to what the individual intakes chemically.

If you do, feel free to tell us why and what makes you want to.
I have trouble sleeping, pot helps.
I have trouble eating, pot helps.
I quit smoking cigarettes, pot helps.
Other than that, I just like to smoke pot to wind down or to get all my friends high so we can watch funny cartoons and laugh till we nearly pee ourselves. Being high doesn't have to be all goofy and silliness, but it is fun.
I also like to get high before I clean the house or do dishes, it helps me focus and ignore how shitty those chores are.
I could go on and on, but you guys know that. :)
If you do, what do you think about people who don't?
I think it's perfectly fine if you choose not to for whatever reason, just so long as you don't look down on me for my choice. I think my friends just kinda have to be okay with me smoking pot because I wouldn't want any awkward feelings between us. I can only think of 2 or 3 friends of mine that don't smoke pot regularly.
I do, however, think that everyone should at least try it and see for themselves. I really hate people who haven't ever smoked...or did once and had a bad experience because they were with stupid people...who turn around and say how horrible pot is and trash people who do it. If you're not up for the smoke, that's understandable. That's why there's other ways to experience it.

I hear you though, many people who feel the way I do about drinking and smoking are religious. I wish that would change. It annoys me.

One of my best friends is like you though. Not religious but he has never and will never drink, smoke, or do any sort of drug. Not the same as you since you do drink a beer every now and than. I really don't understand his mentality towards not trying anything.

I don't think that's it. He's just a different breed of human. His life story thus far has been very entertaining, I compare it to Forrest Gump but instead of good things happening to him, everything ends badly.
Dropped out of high school, I think eventually got his GED. Never got his drivers license, 21 years old now without one. Never went to college. Went homeless in Baltimore for about half a year for no real reason other than he hated living at home. Eventually moved into some hotel managers basement in New Jersey for a few months. Than he went and lived out in LA in an apartment with some paraplegic for about a year. Moved back here to move in with his sister. Got into an argument with her and she called the cops on him for assaulting her or something for pushing her. She tried to drop the charges but the cops wouldn't allow it, so he still lived with her while trying to get that sorted out. So while he was waiting for this to all sort out for some reason he worked at this local comic shop for free. Place was going under but he offered to manage the place thus becoming the only employee at the store working for no pay. Everyday having to open and close it and work the entire day for no fucking pay. The owner was apparently a douche too. Once his legal shit got cleared up he moved down to Florida to live with his aunt but that only lasted 10 days before he came back here. Now he's trying to find a job living with his sister again. He's really into horror movies and shit like that but you would never know it if you met him. Apparently when he was in high school he got some connections by going to those stupid conventions and meeting people thus why he moved out to LA. But years have passed and those connections have died. I have no idea where he is going in life but I hotly anticipate the next chapter. I'm trying to get him to move out to Vegas with me but he's being a bitch about me smoking in the apartment if we did so.

seems like he has some other kind of mental problem though, probably undiagnosed.

Forrest Gump wasn't supposed to be a huge loser who couldn't hold a job and never had his own place and got in trouble for beating women

He had his own place in LA, just had a roommate. I make the comparison because Gump constantly went on different adventures in his life, you never knew where he would end up next, but you just knew he wouldn't be in the same place doing the same thing for long. And that's what it's like with this kid. But where Gump lucks out in all of his situations, my friend always has things turn out badly. He's a good kid, a nice kid. Very hard working, just has awful luck. And he didn't beat his sister. Have you ever gotten into a fight with any of your siblings? You're easily the biggest faggot on netphoria.

"Very hard working"? More like a fucking idiot. He worked all day at a store for free.
He's not smart or unlucky... he's a leech and a loser and you'd be best to drop him.

How the fuck is he a leech? He's never asked for any sort of money. Ever since he was of working age he's always held a job. He worked insane hours ever since he left Baltimore. He worked really insane hours at this comic book shop, although for no other pay other than for meals. He isn't a leech in the slightest bit. He just has this goal in life that he will not let up to get out in LA and get into this horror movie production industry.

yeah I smoke. I haven't for a while, so I can get a job.
whatever, I like it and its less harmful than anything else. i could be getting stoned, or I could be shooting heroin in an alley.
i can stop whenever I want, but it is usually a bitch for the first day if i've been smoking regularly.
oh well, I still have a gram of some stuff somewhere in my room. I think I have a bunch of really old shitty weed hidden away in a harry potter lunch box as well.
