i have two close groups of friends. my "druggie" friends and my goodie-goodie friends. i was checking my email today and recieved this from one of my best friends. she's not a smoker and has a very distorted view of marijuana. they (my nonsmoker best friends) even tell me that they dont want me to die because of my smoking! what a joke-read this

mellow out man, you need to be able to understand both sides of this. they might not be educated as well with drugs. and even if they are they care about you. you shouldnt be mad at people who acre about you.

if you think marijuana isnt bad for you, then you are living in some kind of fantasy world. You are breathing in smoke, of course it is bad for your lungs.
Personally, I would rather have friends who do not smoke weed. They are more dependable as friends, they arent the type to "forget" prior engagements or not answer the phone when you call.

dont judge people whether they smoke pot or not. judge your friends by their personality.

Marijuana is not bad for you! Smoke is, true, but I mostly vaporize my MJ.
I can't believe you make such a generalization about MJ smokers saying they are not dependable. There are plenty of non-stoners who are forgetful and don't anwser their phone. I always remember things I'm supposed to do with friends and I always anwser my phone.

If u THINK marijuana is harmful ur living in a world the gov't created for u, ur own little matrix...the only think about marijuana that is bad is the smoke....if u smoke a big turd on the side of the road ur still hurting ur lungs...big whoop..
also, dude...tell ur friends ur not going to die. Keep all your friends, if ur non smoking friends thinks its bad, thats their decision...not urs...u have the right to think whatever u want.

dont judge people whether they smoke pot or not. judge your friends by their personality.That's a good rule to live by. One of my closest friends doesn't smoke or drink anymore and imho is a much better person to be around. It sounds like you have friends that care about you. All that matters in the end is who has your back when the shit hits the fan.

I really don't think marijuana can affect how good you are at being a friend

^^ Agreed. And also marijuana gives you a way to.. bond with people. Once you've smoked with someone, you feel closer to them..

Definately! i smoked with my girlfriend this weekend and now we love eachother alittle bit more! lol
I love it, she loves it! we all love getting high! i just do it in moderation not like everyday because i have higher priorities than getting high...its just fun to do when the right time comes.

I hate when kids make fun of me because i smoke. First they dont know much about it and what am i doin to them when i smoke after school. Also what did i do to them to have them make fun of me.

Dude, how are people making fun of u because ur smoking pot? I put emphasis on when u said "they don't know much about it" thats why its illegal, because no one knows anything about it, we've banned all experimentations on the substance and then they( the gov't ) lies and says how it can kill u, etc. Or they pay off some moron to create these stupid experiments that isn't really science like Dr. ASSlinger...its all abunch of lies...next time these dudes are making fun of u, just be like 'yo, while im smoking weed and mellowing out u can smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol...where u have a much greater chance of dying' or something like that...im not much of a back talker, just get over it...remember the taoist philosophy:
"People who know don't talk and people who talk don't know"
its talking about the TAO, but same with everything else in the world...
Taoists unite! :)

I don't like to toke with people. I find that when I'm with people I can't really focus on my high, and basically, it's a waste of bud.
Peace

Isn't one of the main purposes of weed to get high with friends? I don't see how it is a waste if bud if you're helping someone out. That almost seems selfish. Just my thoughts

Diminished or extinguished sexual pleasure

Decrease in testosterone levels and lower sperm counts for men
Increase in testosterone levels for women and increased risk of infertility
Well, that certainly roffled my waffle.

Oh man, those statistics tell me how ignorant people are.
What do you consider to be the number one problem in America today?
Drugs : 34%
Crime : 19%
Education : 14%
Unemployment : 12%
Economy : 12%
Other : 9%
WTF? The "Drug War" is bombing the economy down...
Does marijuana use increase the potential to use stronger drugs such as cocaine, heroin, ecstasy etc.
yes : 49%
no : 51%
Nothing needs to be said...

MJ is bad for you? Have your friends ever read studies about how bad breathing in pollution your whole life is bad for you?
But someone did make the point....you should know as much as you can about a substance before using it. And then you can tell your friends the facts before they can send some crap to you in email :P

Yeah, that article was hilarious... it was so much BS. I laughed my butt off reading that. I remember when I used to think those things were true though, that is the sad part.

Unless you are a girl... then you grow a beard. I love how they try to convince you it will turn you into the opposite sex.
Not sure if the beard thing is mentioned in that article but I have read it before.
