    Well, the jist is, some stoners are like your father, and some are the opposite. Those who are the latter make a bad image of us.

    IMO, the media only focuses on the latter. Mainly because the media is owned by rightwingers who don't want the Good Word of Ganja to get out.

    Haha, same kinda deal here, man.

    If I smoke for awhile and don't smoke for awhile, I can tell that it's just me... and that it isn't just making me lazy.

    Tonight, I didn't feel like looking for my car key/remote deal (it's one of those $230 laser cut VW Jetta keys... fucking keys, they're a bit annoying), yet I haven't really smoked in awhile. I'm thinking about not smoking anything (free, rotations and all) and just toking once I hit up Bonnaroo, on the 16th.

    Yet, I've worked all day in people's flower gardens 90something degrees, 80 percent humidity, planting things and pulling weeds--toking a J or a bowl when nobody is around or I'm on a water/bathroom break.

    haha, people will just do what they want as always and thats fine with me. i do what i feel like and if it takes me places then so be it... but i dont care if someones lazy. i think theres too much emphasis on 'not being lazy'... just fuckin do what you want. if that's total laziness, then be lazy... for me its laziness mixed with interesting shit, and thats how i like it

    haha stoned

    i know what your trying to say somewhat..

    the "kids that wear marijuana shirts" are the ones who make stoners look bad, by labeling themselves a user of the drug, im not saying their burnouts or anything, but society as a whole is not prepared for that type of advertisement, and the kids/adults are shunned apon.

    thats one point i had to make, correct me if you feel like it

    I smoke a lot of pot.

    But I manage time for my family, my schoolwork, my friends and myself. I've brought my marks up dramatically in the last year (ironically, ever since I started smoking my grades have gone up). I'm proudly able to say I have a great, loving relationship with both of my parents, most of my family, my close friends and of course with my boyfriend. I have a strong and positive self-image and would like to get a summer job once I've finished with my summer school course (which I opted for to bring up my grade 12 English mark -- a credit I've already earned). :)

    Sure, I have a couple of Bob Marley shirts. I like bright colours, tie-dye, textured fabrics, loose clothing, flowers... and feel most comfortable in this style. I've always taken after my mom, who dresses much like I do. I choose to wear shoes as minimally as possible in the summertime because I am a sensory whore. I savour the feel of anything beneath my feet, be it soft earth or hard gravel. And you know what? I'm happy with where I am in life. People may look at me and think I represent a failing youth.

    I look in the mirror and see myself as a valuable and beautiful person, full of potential, which I refuse to waste.

    like the others, your all wise and educated posts are always welcomed into mature discussion such as this.

    Haha!

    This thread has turned into exactly what I had expected- a bunch of teenage stoners trying desperately to defend a pathetic lifestyle and their drug of choice, while only managing to muster up the intelligence of somebody maybe 12 years old. You guys do realize, that by posting some of these (blatantly stupid) things, you are only proving his point?

    I gotta hand it to you digitalldj.... this was a good one!

    For the record; I agree with you whole-heartedly. I can't say I dont see why marijuana is frowned upon so much in the modern world- hell, I see why everyday when I visit these (or any other) forums. I see why it is illegal here, and probably will ALWAYS be illegal here, each and every single day when I see a group of stoners on the street. I see why it is illegal when I turn on the news and see a couple individuals arrested for acts of vandalism with posession of marijuana...

    Why is our sweet mary-jane illegal in the states, you ask? FUCKING TAKE A LOOK AROUND. Goddamn, people are always in this fucking mindset of 'fuck you, ill smoke the shit where i want, when i want, and ill do whatever the fuck i want!' Well, motherfuckers, THANK YOU for promoting the illegalization of perhaps one of the most beneficial plants on this planet. Job well-fucking-done.

    You're absolutely right, digitalldj. Its just too bad that the fucking idiotic choices of a few have lasting implications on the rest of us. But, I suppose thats the way its always been, and the way it will (probably) always be. I suppose this entire thread is a lost cause, considering the damage has already been done- whatever status marijuana has attained is going to stick- whether we like it or not.

    I would like to say "Hey guys, lets all make better lifestyle choices and not be so reckless in regards to drug use, lets reform marijuana's current negative rep by the majority of the world!" But I'm no fool. Some people are fucking idiots. And unfortunately, those idiots must always fuck the rest of us over.


    Mucho props on the thread digitalldj! Good to see there are some intelligent, responsible people lurking around on here :)

    how about you shut the fuck up instead of trying to provoke kids into argument only to show how fucken smart you are. who the fuck cares if someone wheres a shirt with a marijuan leaf on it? does it hurt you in any way? mind your own buisness and let kids live the way they want to live. you can laugh at all the mistakes and bad judgments they make, but dont go pmsing about it. doing good in school has nothing to do with if you poor decisions or not. i have many frineds who do great in school, and do stupid shit all the time that could get them in serious trouble. take your stereotypical bullshit out of here and worry about yourself before getting your pantys in a twist about the way other people like to live thier life. is it your life? dont tell poeple how to think and dont tell people how to act. do you really think what you just wrote will in any way change the way someone lives thier life? no one is gonna listen to some douche on a forum telling them to do better in school.

    Learn to formulate proper (or at least legible) English, then come back, perhaps a single person MAY give a fuck about what you have to say.

    But I still wouldn't count on it.

    hahah talk about setting yourself up to be knocked down

    you seem to have missed the entire point of this thread, like the majority of the idiots who've posted in the last 2 pages

    the thing is my good friend, kids wearing Marijuana T shirts IS what this whole thread is about, IT DOES effect me, because me, being a responsible marijuana user the people who wear the shirts, act innapropriatly, get caught with weed, are the people who hold back legalization, make the public form negative opinions on weed, and make the need for stricter laws to be formed and enforced

    and i dont know how bad im "pmsing" but are you really dumb enough to think that "poor descisions have nothing to do with doing good in school"

    OF COURSE THEY DO!

    if idiots made the desicion to study hard, put forward an ounce of effort, and pick the time and place to smoke weed, even the most braindead stoner could become at least a productive member of society, i'm not saying u need A's, i'm not saying you need to go to college, i'm saying finish fucking high school and plan for the future.

    and the only person with their "panties in a twist" seems to be you, I live for threads like this, i'm sitting back and laughing at people like you who get all uptight over somthing as simple as...ready for this?...AN OPINION!

    I could not care less if people take a single thing from this thread, educated people may read it and think "hmm he makes some valid points" or even "I understand his opinion but dont agree" but when people like you come, read my first post, then just attack me, what is that proving exactly?

    and Four Winds, i appreciate the props, this thread is nothing more then to stimulate some discussion other then topics which have been beaten to death on a daily basis
