My problems with drugs have absolutely nothing to do with religious beliefs.

I've seen people throw away perfectly good opportunities in life because they just had to get high. Blown job interviews, ruined credit (yes, buying weed) and kicked out of University. When I was in school, a friend that I'd gone to school with for four years was even killed over a large bag of weed he was carrying in his jacket.

So yes, I have a problem with drugs. If you can't exercise the self-control to not use them, or you lack the mental fortitude to get through your problems and/or have fun without using drugs, alcohol, etc. then you are weak-minded and need to step aside in the name of the species.

And yes, I know I just pissed off 90% of the forum, but that's the way it is. Drugs and alcohol are for the weak.

Commence flaming, gentlemen. beer:

That's ok with me, you're entitled to your beliefs, it just annoys me immensely when people will drink like a fish but when you even mention weed they think of you as some burn out loser. There's no doubt that it can cause problems for people, but there are alot of smart, responsible people who use pot, some on a very regular basis. Pot doesnt make you lazy and dumb, just alot of lazy and dumb people smoke it.

An understandable source of frustration.. and it irritates me as well. Alcoholism is no better than being addicted to any other drug.

well when you're close to graduating from college its unadvisable to smoke weed if you're looking to get a job. i just hope they cant take a pubic hair test :P

yeah, and since they are hiring again in june, i'll resubmit my application and get my haircut before then, clearing my hair of the drug while detoxing my body.

[Madmartagen]

hope youre serious about quitting, prolly nothing more pathetic than a college grad who cant find a job because he smokes weed.

poor sob

we miss you in irc, get back in there

Piss test or blood test?

Blood test you're fucked, piss test you have a variety of options.

Cranberry juice is a start....Drink a lot of that. You should be fine if you haven't smoked in over a month.



.....On another note - anti-pot preachers fuck off, noone wants to hear that shit. You might as well come knock on our doors and preach the lords word right in our face. It's all opinion based on personal experiences.

All my close friends are potheads, and ALL of them contribute to society....There is a group of 8 of us and we all meet up in the evenings to have a session and talk about our days/weeks whatever....It's purely for relaxation, like a nice hot bath after a long day at work.
We all wake up the next morning fine, ready to contribute to society in the form of university, and steady jobs - Every single one of us.

I like to think I'm not a total moron, and I'm one of the top in my class at university and I've been smoking weed pretty much daily for almost two years, and before that at least weekly since I was 14...I had my first session when I was 13 and I'm 19. Only other drug I've tried was mesculine (cactus), and that was a one off.

....and based on all the other stoners I've met, I'm pretty much the typical, average of all of us combined. Stereotyping is where everyone goes wrong.

First off I'll admit, I smoke about once a month and drink about twice a week.

I do agree with most of your post, except the end as quoted.
Ethanol gets millions of guys laid that never would have if it didn't exist. Call it weak to want to get laid? Perhaps in your world, not mine, thats human nature. A better reply would have been: "alcohol is for the ugly and unsociable"... much better. I am neither, though alcohol does enhance events for me, much like food and shelter enhances life for you. I hope you enjoy your sober lifestlye, but just remember, food and shelter if for the weak.

Both are pretty lame. I dont drink like a fish ever. I might have some vodka before I go to bed, but its not like im getting wasted everyday. fuck the last time I got drunk was my wedding day, the time before that was y2k new years.... oOo: I think i might need AA
