Why is it cooler to be a stoner than an alco?

very true. pretty sad when your entire identity is based on a chemical you put in your body. I mean... wow! ok, i'm sure I am pissing half of you people off now. I will stop.

 

Many people willingly identify themselves as "stoners" and the like, because they want that image. It's become "cool" in many instances. Indeed associating yourself with any particular "image" because of the use of any single substance is absolutely ridiculous.

 

man, there's just too many bad arguments to rebut here; it's more than one man can handle...


i'll just go with the short answer and say that the thread premise is wrong.

 

.... Bran is the hard outer layer of grain and consists of combined aleurone and pericarp and it's good for you, so don't do harm to it ...

aw, you should know better.
you're just misinterpreting, i think. the marijuana user culture is extremely diverse and our identities are comprised of WAY more than our recreational use of mj.

i can't speak for all the people who hang around the stoner's lounge, but i see the word as just a friendly nickname or something that kind of connects us. we share something in common, we toke.

doesn't mean "my entire identity" revolves around an activity/substance i enjoy.. that's just part of what makes me me. i identify with "stoner," just as i identify with many other "names." but i don't see "stoner" as a unique identity or image. it's all good.

i feel you.
going through the research can be exhausting. there's a lot more to it than just reading the studies, as i'm sure you know.

 

My apologies. You are correct. besides, I made a generalization, which is never fair. My comment would and should be only directed at those who do do that and not the pot smoking community as a whole. I used to smoke pot, myself. I had to quit. It ended badly for me. I have recently stopped drinking beer. I would say that I was never defined by either substance.

 

Stoners share their weed. It's more communal. And if you touch my bottle of Midleton I'll hemp whip yer ass.

 

cheers mate

congrats on making healthy choices for you

 

Cheers!!

 

Well, you have to admit that smoking anything isn't exactly great for your lungs.

 

yes ture, but still better than drinking

 

I can't argue with that, but it's mostly because of personal preference. Pot doesn't make me puke. Some people it does, I know a few, but anyway, alcohol DOES make me puke. And I'm young and you're only young once, so I'm enjoying myself. I'll probably stop smoking when I have kids, especially if it's still illegal. I do not like it enough to risk losing my babies.

 

personally, i only puke if i smoke after drinking too much. neither one alone gets me, except maybe chugging beer on a full stomach.

 

why is it not cool to be neither?

 

cause your old. get over it.

 

well i doubt that can damage your babies, but maybe i am extremely wrong. the tobacco smoke yes but weed...i don`t know.
about the puking from weed i did it just once i i think it was not really from the weed...i had been drinking too so i guess the alchocol was responsible.

 

i'm cool and i do both

 

Well, as far as I've researched, it doesn't. Well, other than the adverse effects of smoking anything period, like I already said. But sadly, they will rip your kid away from you right after birth if you pop a dirty test while pregnant in Texas. Now I'm not sure they drug test if you're not on government aid, but I know they test your baby when you have him/her and if the baby has THC metabolites in its blood, you're fucked.

 

alcohol's physically addicting

 

CPS is all over my cousin for having a dirty test result the day she popped out her baby..and she is only 16 - or i believe she is 17 now

everyoen fucking told her...everyone
yet she still smoked a fuckign joint
