Weed!? wtf!?

[blindside666]

Right weed smokers may wish to ignore this. Time for me to rant.

I remember like a fucking year ago!! Weed was a bad thing =S
I still avoid it and most people who smoke it. We used to call them druggies, stay away from them. I'm a pure person, drink a little. Never smoke, NEVER EVER do weed.

So recently I got invited to a party, weed was on the menu, I turned it down. Then my best friend tells me he does it.
Half of my so called friends are pot-heads...

EDIT: I Have the most awesome girlfriend, before when I had this post saying she told me she smoked it. She was proper winding me up, shes good at that... Any ideas to get her back!?

What the hell is going on with the world?

What the hell is going on with you fella?

Get a grip and remember each to their own.

I used to smoke all the time, but stopped years and years ago. I dont drink that often but i am good mates with people who take all types of drugs and drink every weekend.

Doesn't mean they are bad people.

You dont have to agree with other peoples choices, but you should accept their right to choose their own lifestyle.......

Whats different about your "so called" friends now? i bet you were really good mates with them before u knew they smoked huge fattie bombatties and were junkies and shooting smak in ally-ways and killing granny to feed their habit.

As above, weed is much more commonplace in our society than the 'naives' would have you believe.

I used to smoke shed loads of it at school and for a couple of years after, but then my interest in it just fizzled out. I'll still have the odd toke if it's offered but don't go out of my way to get it.

I had a bit of a similar thing a few years ago when I found out that some of my friends do coke recreationally. For a while I thought it'd be best to avoid said people for a while, but came to realise that it really is their choice and they are still the people that I knew and respected before I found out.

I'd never have coke myself, but now I don't mind friends taking it. Out of respect they don't do it in front of me (that much! ) and they know I won't have any so don't bother offering. They know my thoughts, and I know it's up to them.

Think about it a little.

'Weed' has become common-place. I wouldn't be suprised if it eventually gets legalised in the U.K. Just like with alcohol, you get those who occassionally do it with their friends 'for a laugh' and their are others who do it all day and night to drown there sorrows. I've found that people who are bored with their lives / have a lack of hobbies do it more than others.

Also, last year 'weed' wasn't considered a bad thing by much of the youth generation. The usage of marijuana for recreational use is definitely increasing as it has been for a while (much longer than one year), especially with the 'council flat chav-types' who do it to be 'cool'.

To be honest I tend to see it as a wasters drug. No problem with those who have sorted careers out and such, or people who just smoke when they're out.

But the 16-21 year olds who smoke joints like an average smoker has cigs... well they tend to struggle academically. And I speak from my own personal experience and countless examples of wasted talent I've seen.

@ The OP - You mention you drink. Not to flog the dead horse again (for the millionth time on BCF) too much, but as a little thought experiment;
Which would you prefer to be in a room with?
1) 50 Stoned people
or
2) 50 drunk people

Admittedly you're more likely to get laid in scenario two, and bored in scenario one. But I've yet to see a fight kick off in a room of highly stoned buggers, even when someone has managed to surreptitiously eat all the jammy dodgers

Agree entirely with Bonny on this. Chronic use of the ganja is bad for motivation, mental dexterity, self worth and generally results in a lot of laziness. I smoked like chimney for 5 years or so, and it definitely was the cause of me failing and quitting uni, and a subsequently painful 2 or three years after that.

I stopped around the time I started to do some difficult professional exams, I doubt I would have got through them if I had been smoking.

Having said that, I do like the occasional smoke with my mates on special occasions - I guess once every three to four months or so. I really would like a nice session at the moment, has been about 8 months since I had some, but I don't see me getting any in the near future.

OP, I find it laughable that you think these are bad people just because they smoke, but yet you say drinking is OK. Why do you think this? If it is just because one is legal and the other isn't, that is a pretty fucking stupid reason IMO.

I'd suggest that you stop drinking that evil drug known as alcohol as its obviously fried your brain.

funny how the netherlands dont have any of these problems, and they've just concluded in a coffeeshop review that "a ban on cannabis does indeed have more disadvantages than advantages". in their country they don't have any problems with people claiming conditions like mental psychosis are caused by use of killer super ksunk yet anythin over there is far stronger than here.

[kitty kat]

I would rather be with a lot of stoned people than drunks. A drunk is more likely to get abusive & violent, weed smokers are just chilled. I personally don't drink or smoke weed, but both used by others, in moderation is fine with me. My best friend smokes a fair bit & drinks, but she is always there when the kids or I need a bit of help.

Each to their own, it is what makes the world go round.

I wouldnt want to be surrounded by anyone taking anything worse than weed or drunk,. You should maybe count yourself lucky they arnt E heads or worse.

So what if they smoke weed or smoke at all? its going into their body not yours! If you dont like the smell get out of the room. But thats a bit mental falling out with everyone just because t hey smoke it and calling them names.

Love to see how you would get on in Amsterdam in a hash bar!

As for whats happening to the world, where have you been if you are only noticing people are smoking weed now?

I used to smoke it years ago but havnt touched it in 5 years and the smell makes me sick and people areound me smoke it but i dont fall out with them and get angry over it. I just except it. rather than than a drunk person on pills around me.

[blindside666]

Its interesting seeing the different sides of it.
I guess I just posted because I was so damn shocked when I suddenly realized it was everywhere and as common as a pint at the pub.
Their choice not mine obviously, but I've had some pretty fucked up shit related to drugs in my past hence I was so sort of shocked.

Seriously, consider me uneducated and unaware of all this.
"bit mental falling out with everyone just because t hey smoke it and calling them names" Didn't =D I was just like wtf dude?

But yeah I'm coming to terms with it, I guess they all knew I'd had some shit so they didn't tell me or anything before.
LOL I really feel like I've been living under a rock Anything else I missed in the past five years?

If you've had such bad experiences, surely you should be a little more clued up on drugs in society?

Also, are they that good mates, if you didnt even know they smoked weed occasionally?

I used to smoke huge amounts, buckets, bongs, reef anything that would smoke really.
Now i occasionally puff but its just on nights i can chill out.
I used to love having a little pipe with the missus, whack on a film and really enjoy it. Weed is a wicked drug, but its not a great thing to have in huge amounts regularly, as you get older with more responsabilty etc it can make life difficult and its not because its sends you loopy is because you realise you probably run round like a dick head doing too much.lol
Anyways, getting pished is alright in town, id prefer a smoke at home though, its great in good company or on your own. I love getting kained and making stuff, doesnt matter what it is, electrical stuff, fixing things, all good fun when your wreaked.

Id soon be one friend down if they started harping on like Blindside, he'd do my nut in. I don't really like loud, arrogant drunk jocks, but i wont do anything about it or say a abd word about them if they aint causing me shi*. But yeah as Bonny said, lets say you're in a restaurant...would you rather be sat next to a stag do piss up, or some kainers out for a bit of grub. haha

I smoke every day mostly weed but occasionally hash when theres no weed
I have a good job and a happy family life, my 18 y.o. son recently started smoking weed as well
I have no objection as he's old enough to make up his own mind and is well clued up on the subject
given that I run the biggest cannabis site in the world and lived in Amsterdam for years
I have hundreds of friends that smoke (I can count on one hand the people I know that don't smoke

smoking weed is not the big taboo the government makes it out to be
prescription drugs are a Far bigger problem than a spliff or 3
and as for Alcohol its the biggest killer drug after ciggy's in the UK and yes Alcohol is a drug
and millions are addicted to it in the Uk alone

my suggestion to you is to go have a smoke with one of your "Druggie" friends and see for yourself and don't be a brainwashed pratt

Weed is a crapload better than most other drugs you could put in to your body, including 'legal' ones.
