i smoke to feel good and enjoy the occasion but it pisses me off when people say you dont need to get high to have fun. i then ask them what they do for fun. and no matter what it is you can say the same thing. you dont need to do that to have fun. i choose to smoke because i enjoy it. its my personal choice and im tired of people trying to shit on people that get high. i have good grades, graduated, on my way to college, work hard, very likable and charismatic but im less of a person because i smoke weed and the dumb bitch telling me this cant keep a job cause she cant show up on time. im high as fuck and never late for work or lazy when i work. wtf?
It all boils down to society being brainwashed all through the 20th century about Reefer Madness and the other horiffic consequences of injesting an herb that has been in use for 10,000 years or so.
I totally agree with you man. I hate the way people assume your a dumbshit just because you smoke, when I am infact smarter than any of them.
Are these "people" your friends or just general society? Either way they probably mean, 'they' don't need to smoke to have fun. Why do non-smokers always try to 'recrute' people...what is with that?
remember on fear and loathing at the police convention. its sad to think there are still to this day cops with that mentality!
when i say people i meen general society. all my friends, wether they smoke or not, let me make my own choices and i let them make theres. we do give each other insight and how we feel but there is no recruiting, unless someone gets addicted to something thats ruining their life
I quit smoking for a while after one of my friends and I got into a fight. He had been surfing on my computer while I played some game. When I looked up, my screen was blue, and covered with links to different porn sites. My friend had given me a virus. But it really wasn't a huge deal. So I talked to a computer guy. He said he would fix it for free and upgrade the graphics if I could dig some holes in his yard for a landscaping thing he was doing. The only thing was, he said the job required two people. So I thought my friend would be fine with helping, seeing as he did start this whole mess. But he whined and bitched about having to work with me on his day off, and it eventually escalated into a full-blown fight. He claimed I couldn't remember what had happened on account of the fact that I smoke weed. Now, I don't want to brag, but I pride myself on my memory. I remember EVERYTHING. And to have a friend saying I couldn't remember shit because I smoke weed on the occasion was just ridiculous. So in the end, he wouldn't help me, and I had to pay for his actions. But it taught me a powerful lesson. When you smoke pot, you are going to have to deal with stereotypes. Despite the fact that they are 99% untrue of most people. If it isn't worth it to you, then don't smoke. Otherwise, knowledgably inform people about pot. Try to change the stereotype, at least about yourself.
good way to look at it. i try real hard to be understanding but sometimes to many people push my buttons on the wrong day
