[Jon Miller]

That's not true...I go to the movies regularly. I don't go every day, but I go regularly.

Like I said...if I had the money and this town wasn't dry, I've smoked far more often.

[Jon Miller]

than you probably owe something to your lack of funds and inability of finding weed

Jon Miller
(from what I have seen, Weed is like Alcohol, once a week isn't too bad, 3 times or so is pressing it, everyday and you are trouble (not being able to go 4 hours without smoking up and you are deffinitely in trouble))

[Jon Miller]

by the way, from what I have observed, if you can't find weed, it is because you aren't looking enough

This ain't some rule about how you conduct yourself at work, this rule strikes at the heart of a person's autonomy. The employer is telling the employee what medicine he can or cannot use. Seriously, if you were on some medication you found effective and your employer told you to stop taking it because of politics, would you obey or tell him to stick it? Ricky can afford the latter...

I don't agree with that at all. Especially when he had alternatives that he could have tried. I'm also not convinced that he was using it soley in the context of it being "medicine."

I also don't agree that his retirement was all because he had a conflict of interests, that conflict being smoking pot vs. playing ball. Just as was metnioned earlier that we can't know his motivation before the pot, we don't know for sure that his only factor in quitting the team was choosing pot over playing.

I bet he'll be back next year, maybe with the Raiders.

Odd of that happening = 90%

He has tried alternatives, he was on Paxil and God only knows what else (flashback to the typical drug ad where the spokesman quickly and quietly runs down a list of nasty sounding side effects and pot doesn't sound bad at all )

He was going to play and decided not to shortly after being informed he failed a third test which carries a 4 game suspension. All I can go on is what he says...

Skip out all this **** on the NFL and let's get back to basics, ey?

@Diss: Go ahead and smoke regularly. Hell, smoke trice a day. One more dissident voiced silenced with any luck.

[Sikander]

I didn't read the whole thread, so forgive me if I'm being reptetive.

I wouldn't start smoking weed Diss. If you had a problem with drinking and it made you suicidal, then definitely don't start smoking weed. I don't think it's worse than alchohol, in fact the opposite. But it is easy to develop a dependency on marijuana (and likely if you've had a dependency on alchohol to prove a disposition for that sort of thing), I've had many many friends who have done so. It won't help you with your social anxiety, though it will make it easier to be content with avoiding social situations.

The most dangerous think about developing a dependency on marijuana is that if you later decide to quit or can't locate any marijuana you can suffer severe depression from the withdrawl. This isn't the physical sort of withdrawl one might see in an alchohol or heroine addict, but a withdrawl from the endorphin feedback that defines a dependency on marijuana. This could be enough to take you from being depressed to being suicidal. Anyone who decides to give up marijuana after a long period of daily use should consult a physician if they see any signs of depression. They will be able to help you directly or direct you to someone who can help you readjust to life without it.

All that said, it's funner than drinking AFAIC, and less dangerous on a per diem basis or used chronically. But it isn't harmless, and anyone with a history of depression, chemical dependency, bipolar disorders, or psychosis should at least think twice about getting involved with it.

[Traianvs]

weed's just a bit of fun. Who would want to smoke it all day; I wouldn't have any money left if I did. Besides smoking it regularly is way more unhealthy than smoking regular cigarettes iirc. If you smoke it casually now and then it's actually very healthy

ps only noobs with no character get addicted to weed, it's one of the least addictive things I've ever used. Even coca cola is more addictive, and cola costs you more than weed, and is a lot more unhealthy . So quit booze and cola and start smoking p0t!

Cola costs more than weed? The weed shops in Amsterdam must've tried and ripped us off.

So Ted,

I get all your arguments. But only poeple of your type can beleive in them. And by your type, I mean ‘’ A narrow minded tight ass that’s afraid of change or a new idea’’

Advice, loosen up, try stuuf, see things and don’t be so judge mental.


Oh and you say name it. Ok. I will. If you really want to compare.

What do you do?
What are your future plans?
What do you have?
And finally, how old are you.

Please Ted, compare yourself to a pot smoker such as me and tell how better you are than me. Tell me what kind of ‘’Champion’’ you are.

Spec.

I know plenty of conservatives who smoke.

Good reasons why to smoke marijuana:
- I want to get high.

Good reasons NOT to smoke marijuana:
- Not everyone thinks stoned young males are funny. If you're stoned, pointing at me and laughing, the fact that you're high won't save you. I will kill you where you stand. If you were sober, you would have 1% chance (God's miracle), but if you're stoned, you have 0% of survival (God hates stoners).

- If you come to my house and eat my food without asking permission because you have the munchies, I will kill you were you stand.

- If you are stoned and suddenly become a pacifist and say I'm stupid and you're so intelligent now that you are high, I will kill you on spot. Weren't so intelligent after all.

- If you commit any kind of crime against me or my property, and even if it didn't have anything to do with the fact that you smoke marijuana, I still kill you. You don't run so good stoned.

[Pekka]

IF you think my reasons, well I should say the rest of the peoples reasons why not to smoke are valid, well...

There are people who say that pen is mightier than sword. There are people who think, that they can get out of a situation using their intelligence and talk. WRONG. If I need to kill you, little words won't save you.

It's the logic that violence somehow is not so might than the word. That's the stoner logic too in parallel with other issues. Just not realistic. Like communism. Hey good idea, but doesn't work in the real world.

It's the arrogant nerd, that thinks he is superior because he knows the stargate episode guide in his sleep and in 4 different languages. Still, if we get into confronation, the stargate man is the one crying afterwards. I don't see how his intelligence saved his ass in that situation. Then they cope it by saying 'well he was a dumbass because it was the only way he could handle the situation'. That's like the worst excuse ever for being a skinny ***** that never stood up for themselves. The fact is, the stargate man was the one who wasn't able the handle the situation. The stargateman doesn't have a variety of weapons. He only has the word. The kickazz man has the weapon of the word AND violence. And the fact is, who the hell has the time or urges to listen the stargate man come up with his stupid ass arguments, when you can just stomp him. I ask you, who was the stupid one... if you're answer is not the stargate man, I'm sorry if the wedgies damaged your brain activity so much when you were younger.

Of course, the stargate man is the only one with the arrogance to say afterwards to himself, that he was smarter. How the hell does he know that? He got his ass stomped, and they never got to the 20 questions. The fact is, he lost the first event, and they never got to the second event. If stargate man can't impose his intelligence on the violence man, he is not very intelligent now is he? It's like having the worst card of the car deck, and then you claim your car still wins the other one because it's silver coloured, pathetic!

You say smoking marijuana has opened up your world? Yeah, and the shamans drinking pee in Lapland had open mind too. ANd they realized things. But none of them was smart enough to realize drinking pee is pretty ****ing stupid.

I'm not saying smoking weed is stupid. I'm saying, that if you think you shouldu do it because any other reasons than that you want to get high, then you're just fooling yourself. Want to get high? Smoke it! You'll get high. Nothing wrong getting high. But if you smoke it because it helps you think, or it helps about anything else than a medical condition where marijuana does not help, then you're just the pee drinking weirdo.
