The main reason is that they choose not to properly handle their emotions derived from stressors in life. There are a lot of nasty habits in this world, being a kid it's definately better to hold off on dabbling on any of em til you're not only an adult, but have a firm grip on knowing who you are and what you want in life. Otherwise for some people they choose to take that choice away by falling into an addictive lifestyle that not only hurts them but those they love as well.
You'll see alot of people in life screw up, just keep on doing your thing, hopefully you can see em come out on the other side without getting hurt.

I smoke weed 'cause I appreciate having alternate ways of thinking about the world. I count myself fairly lucky though because i didn't start until I was old enough to know that my personality wasn't very addictive, allowing me to control my drug use without addiction taking over. Knoledge of one's limitations and motivations are important however, as using drugs to cope will only lead to coping poorly. This may be why you see people ruining their lives on weed in school - you don't know who you are or your limitations and motivations at that age. I sure didn't anyway.
Damn poor for your lungs though.

Why are you worried what other people choose to do? If it doesnt hurt you, why do you care? If you choose not to "do" weed, that's great. I Just hope you don't prejudge others who do. D.A.R.E to THINK for yourself!

UHM....NO...actually, people smoke weed to GET HIGH! Leave the psycho babble U learned at the local community college out of this.
Also, What does smoking pot have to do with leading an addicitive lifestyle? It is widely accepted in the medical community that A) marijuana is NOT addictive. B) marijuana does NOT cause lung cancer!
If you want to encourage kids refrain from using an addictive, deadly substance, suggest they dont drink alcohol. You know, that LEGAL beverage sold on every other city street corner. Or perhaps they should stop using one of the other most addictive substances known to man....CAFFEINE!
So, smoke two joints in the morning, smoke two joints at night, dont forget to smoke two joints in the afternoon, They'll make you feel alright!!!!

Word. Not everyone smoking weed is a maladjusted, messed up kid on the road to ruin. Everyone needs a way to unwind and relax, and if thats what you are gonna do, thats fine with me. Drugs, (at least not weed) aren't going to magicly change you into a jd. P.S Whats wrong with riding high? For alot of people, they know how it will affect their motor skills and judegement, and will make a call based on themselves. Everyone handles it differently, and its pretty common word on the street that alot of pros smoke/get high before racing. Whatever floats your boat.

I speak from personal experience. Perhaps like you i spout off things i know to be true from experience, which is true for 90% of what i spout off about. I do not, however spout off that of which i WANT to be true, like it appears you do. If that was the case i'd be smokin a big ole fattie right now, but i don't kid myself. But hey everyone knows smoking weed makes you mellow and a nice guy, can't you just tell from your post? So toke up pal, i'll save my dough for mt. bike parts.

There are many forms of drugs in this world, just because our gubment is shallow minded and make "the kind" illegal, doesnt necessarily make it bad. I work for a Dutch company and their culture has a totally different approach on what real drugs are. But again, all things aside, an addiction, whether it be smoking "the sticky icky" or having to wash your hands 35 times a day, is a problem and help should be looked for. For those who are adults and can handle their "vices" go for it, if it helps you relax and reflect on a gnarly trail you just rode, then fine. I have to agree that it does not have its place in children's lives at all.

I used to be anti-drug... then I tried all the drugs lol. Seriously, I've tried so much stuff, some you wouldn't even know what it is. salvia? 5-meo-dmt anyone? Anyways...
Weed is not "done", it is smoked. People's reaction to weed is completely different. I have friends who smoke it every day, and they are not retarded, and did not get more stupid. They started doing it because they enjoyed the experience, and so have I. The difference is that they continued smoking, but for me it is a rarity. Blazing is a habit for them, and they enjoy it. I didn't like the feeling of being slow while I'm high, so I chose to do it only when I wanted to relax. I have no worries while I'm blazed, but I cannot go about my day being high. I've tried several things while I was high, and most were not succeful, including riding, homework, school and even having sex. My reaction is completely different from others, because my friends do everything high, and sometimes it just helps them.
I used to be very anti-drug, and wouldn't even talk to people who did drugs or smoked substances. Then I tried smoking, and slowly progressed to other things. I was never addicted to anything, even though I've done some things that are said to be addictive. I don't want to list all the things on the forum, but let's just say it's all the common drugs you hear about, and some prescriptions you never heard of.
My point to this is that, people shouldn't judge things until they experience them for themselves. Unless you know you're weak and prone to being addicted to drugs, don't try it, but even though I thought I was an easy addict, I've managed to never "fiend" for anything.
P.S.- I haven't smoked in 6 months, and haven't done any other drug since New Year
s. Very different from a year ago when I used to smoke every weekend, and try a new thing or two every other weekend.

One big misconception. Pot smoke actually contains ALOT of cancer causing agents. In fact, burn pretty much ANYTHING and carcinogens will be given off. Creasote is a cancer causing agent and the pelical skin on foods after they are smoked should be trimmed to remove cancer causing agents. Anyone that says **** like smoking pot doesn't cause cancer is just plain wrong and should learn the truth about the stuff they put in their body. There is also 4 times the tar in weed as there is in tobacco and that eqauals way more lung damage per puff, the difference is people don't smoke 2 packs of joints a day so the risk of getting ill isn't as high. Also, while weed is not chemically addictive, it can be behaviorally addictive and that can be a strong habit to try and break.
I smoke pot. not everyday, but more then weekly. I does affect your motivation and can become a crutch to deal. Life in moderation.

The only time I've been offered weed is on rides - both occasions by older riders about twice my age (ie 40-50 range). Only accepted once but didn't seem that great to me but I don't really like smoking of any kind...
There is an easy way around carcinogens - baked goods. Just make sure the person making them knows how to cook - I was offered some "brownies" once and they tasted like **** - not enough chocolate in them so I didn't eat them...

Oi, some of you should really try and loosen up a bit. A bit of weed every now and than won't kill you, won't make you an addict, junkee, rethard or anything even close. I'm dutch and getting weed is as easy as going for a cup of coffee, and I love coffee...
I've tried weed and enjoyd it, I know a lot of people who can say the same (some will argue the enjoy bit) and only one dude who is seriously messed up, I'm pretty damn sure he isn't just doing weed though...
Ok, I surely wouldn't advice you to do it on a daily basis or so, my last puff was half a year ago i guess (oi!), But if it helps you unwind then it's a good thing isn't it?

"Everything they tell you about pot is a lie. You can do anything you can do straight that you can do while high. You just realize, it's not worth the ****ing effort. Sure, I could wake every morning at dawn, sit in traffic, go to a job I hate that doesn't fufill me creatively or spiritually....
OR.....
I could wake up at noon and learn how to play the sitar."

my old man is a lawyer (prosecutor) and he always says we should focus on alcohol as the main destructive force when it comes to substance abuse. he's convicted his fair share of drunk drivers but he's never put a smoker in jail for getting into a fight or killing someone in a car or shooting up someone's house. everyone has something they use to escape - weed, prescription drugs (Xanax anyone?), Knob Creek, Pabst, cigarettes...

well I used to smoke a lot (for about 10 years) back in the days in Europe, lots of hash and weed. Since I came to the Land of Hydro, I kinda slow down for some reason then now it's one spliff every 3 months.
I don't think pot is addictive but I do think that getting high could be, cuz it's damn good and one of the best feeling I ever felt (along with sex and riding).
Ever wander in the toilet paper section of a supermarket, and think about the packaging colors and how the marketing dept did a good job for half-an-hour? (well, dont try this at home kids ;)). I know it sounds retarded but it was fun.
In todays society where your own vital space is reduced day after day and there's a lot of stress on your shoulder at school, at work, at home, I don't see why an amazingly high number of peeps are allowed to get drunk (and able to get their "drug" in every street), and pot smokers should be outlawed.
If you like to smoke pot, you should be able to do so without any legal consequences.
Don't worry I drink too...
ps: I do think that pot should be illegal under the age of 18 but it's my own opinion.

I remember I did the pot once and I blacked out and I think I might have even had sex with a mailbox, Im not sure. Still to this day I get all anxious when I get my mail :( ANyway, the next day I craved the pot so bad that I had to tie myself down to stop myself from doing it again... the cold sweats and puking on myself was enough for me to hate hard drugs like pot forever, now I just stick to clean legal substances like tobacco and alcohol.

:rolleyes: Pot smoke is a carcinogen. However, most people smoke much smaller amounts of grass... that is unless they use their Sublime song role models and smoke 10 joints a day like a moron. Thats just as bad as smoking a pack a day.
If you have to smoke that much grass to get high then you need to find a new hook up (reall grass will stick to the wall).

I have a jar full of very similar in my fridge,
came off a bud about half that size though.
I don't know what kind of pot you were smoking but it had to have something in it. I smoked in college. I guess because it was there, and I liked the feeling. Although, it never gave me what it gave you. I smoked good sh!t too. I never liked joints. When you have a good pipe why roll? Anyway, I smoked for about a year, and just quit for some reason. I guess it was because some of my friends wanted to try something harder. I wasn't into that so I quit all together. I think that is the one thing it has the capability of doing. Making you want to try something harder. Of course it doesn't make everyone, because I didn't. I smoke cigs. a few years before, and probably 5 year later. I eventually stopped those too. I think they are the most addictive than any alcohol. I'm now 31, married, successful, two kids, and I don't think the pot turned me into a loser. I probably have a little lung damage though.

Hey kid. Stay away from alcohol. Way more dangerous than pot. I can say this. I've had days and nights where I was driving home high or stoned, depends on the quality, and had no problem getting home. Then there's those nights that i'd been drinking and could'nt even get my keys in the lock of the car door. Just stay on your bike.

THC: over 20%
Buzz: Very potent, very uplifting
Taste/Smell: Extremely resinous smells like bubblegum!
The Bubble Gum originated in Indiana in the 70's.The genetics where brought to Holland during the 90's, where a stable interbred variety was developed. This quickly acquired a reputation for it's sweetness, so much so that the name Bubble Gum has been borrowed for all sorts of seeds and weed.
There are 2 typical plant structures: a pole plant with a main branch and minimal side branching, and a more natural evergreen shape with more branching from the main stem. Plants with almost no side branching a should be forced to flower early and clipped to control height.
Needless to say, these branchless beauties lend themselves perfectly to a sea of green system. Plants that exhibit branching are happy left with multiple branches. Although this means fewer plant per square meter and a longer maturation time, the plants will thank you with a higher yield.
A slow starter with less initial vigor than an F1 hybrid, Bubble Gum needs extra germination time. But don't vegetate to long, she tends to stretch during flowering. Serious Seeds recommends indoor soil methods for a healthier harvest. Sporting beefy colas and stems strong enough to support them, Bubble Gum gains red hues at maturation. You may be surprised by how much scent reminds you of genuine bubblegum.
Bubble Gum - Legendary for its sweet smell and euphoric high.
Bubble Gum is a medium tall, usually not too branchy (sometimes stretchy) plant, producing compact, crystal covered buds. It took many generations to finally produce this stable Bubble Gum, with the characteristic, sweet smell (truly resembling a typical bubble gum taste) and euphoric high; the original trademarks of this famous strain. The only inbred strain (no F1 hybrid) in the Serious menu.
Winner of two awards in the High Times Cannabis Cup of 1994, a 2nd place in 1995 and again a 2nd prize in 1999, 3rd place 94' for best coffee shop product , 2nd place for best bio product , giving Bubble Gum a total of 4 awards from the judges.

Think about it...

I smoke weed because I can.
I smoke weed because it's the perfect stress-releaser.
I smoke weed because I have A.D.H.D. and that's a damn good excuse to smoke a lot.
I smoke weed because my zombie-act is so much better when I'm stoned.

Sack of BB a FEW times a week :eek: Thats pretty hard core.
Well, I must say my idea of a "sack" is usually around a half-eighth to an eighth, I suppose I should buy in higher quantities but whatever.

No lie! If it's the REAL, I have trouble putting down a single 1/4oz sack in a week, and I'm no lightweight!
Even that is pretty core... I get mine in 7-8 gram chunks, usually lasts me over 2 weeks. I could probably buckle down and puff the whole thing away in a week but, that would be a real feat. A dab will do ya, any more is just building tolerance to ridiculous levels and ends up just being wastefull IMHO. If its really good chit I tend to pack 1 good sized chillum in the AM and it will last me till later that night (little puffy on the way to work, little puffy after lunch, little puffy on the way home, finish her off when I get home).

I see this thread has 70ish replies and 2000+ views, whereas the Iran Missile thread has 100+ replies and only just over 1000 views.
Given the context (this being a political debate (haha) forum), is this an indication of the short-term memory loss experienced by habitual 'do-ers' of the evil weed?
I had a point when I started this post, but it's gone now...
Oh yeah, boredom.

If your gonna smoke dope I would wait until your in college or trade school or what ever... (college would be the place to party, get away from home, chase girls, and generally expand your view of life)... I started getting high when I was 13 and for me I really liked being high... for that mattter I discovered that I like being drunk... when I was 18 I got into psychedelics then later had to see what hard drugs were like (coke, crack, crank, MDA, opioum, heroin, and some benozodiazapenes as in Valium and others that I can't remember)...
I'm not the type to tell people what what do w/there lives but I just want to say that I believe starting getting loaded so young really effected my life... IF THE STARTER OF THIS THREAD IS FOR REAL I just want him to know that a life of starting to get loaded really young can lead you down the wrong path... I found out later that there is allot of cognitive developement that takes place in the human brain in the teen years...
Also if you like to get high I hope that either you do it infrequently, wait until your out of high school, or just get your kicks else where... like through riding, right?...
Seriously I started getting loaded when I was 13 ended when I was 23... I worked on Fishing Boats in the Berring Sea until I transfered to a College at 27 and didn't graduate until I was 30 or 31... I say that because working on fishing boats is for people that for one reason or another can't or won't fit into society, and it's an easy way to get killed...
I didn't get into a carrer job until 3 1/2 years ago... that's when I could afford to get back into biking, snowboarding, and other fun stuff... If this post is for real I just hope you don't have to go through all I went through because I started getting faded in Middle School...
Anyway got to load up my gear and head out to the trails... I've learned in my 35yrs of life that being true to myself is where it's at and life is too short, so have a good time while your here and try and stay as long as you can... gotta ride... godspeed.
