I'd like to know where you can find this highly potent - paralyzing weed on the streets.


I need to know for...ummm... research.

Do you see the benefit of seasonings on your food?
Yes. Assuming I've never tried seasoning my food, I must consider the pros and cons of doing so. Essentially, it will either enhance the flavor or detract from it. There is a possible benefit in using food seasoning.

However, I don't see a possible benefit in smoking marijuana that wouldn't be obtained from similar, less dangerous/illegal activities. Call me boring.

Ah, didn't realize you'd never tried it. That explains a little.

Part of the problem is the 'mystique' around weed... I remember in highschool it was like... Everyone knew who had smoked and who didn't and it was like this mini big deal of sorts. Like Ooooo he smokes weed!!! When I was like 16 I was the same way. I was like, i dont need drugs or booze to have fun! Then I pulled my head out of my ass and realized that though I don't NEED it, it's still something very fun.

Why not try it though? Ok, if you try it a few times and dislike it, then don't smoke it if there is no benefit. If it's an anti-smoking in general thing, then I understand that. But you know you can't get addicted or die from it, so why not give it a toke and see what it's all about instead of living with this weird mystique about it

Because trying things for the sake of trying things is terrible logic, in my opinion. Until I'm presented with a convincing and worthwhile reason to try pot, I will abstain from doing so.

It enhances everything you do. I look at weed just as the ultimate enhancer.

Go smoke a blunt then raid the fridge. Or listen to some music and really feel it. Or light up and then have sex and you'll see why millions of people smoke the herb.

There's nothing wrong with that. If you have no interest in it, there's no reason you should feel compelled to do it.

On the other hand, three friends of mine (one being very close) all tried weed for the first time last year. They all hated it. Anecdotal evidence for how awesome weed is doesn't cut it for me.

I'd recommend to nobody to try weed just once. You don't really know what to expect when you toke at first. The first like handful of times I was kinda confused as to what I was feeling. A lot of people don't really know what they are doing the first time or two either so I don't think they really get the full experience of a bud high.

Some people just don't want to smoke it (like you). That's cool, nothin wrong with that. But you have to ask yourself as to why millions of people smoke it if there is no benefit. I can't think of many things I would rather do sober than do stoned.

It's nothing personal against you or other people that smoke weed. There are two things that I've pretty much resolved to never try. One is weed, the other is slot-machine gambling.
