i live in reno, nevada and there is going to be a vote soon for legalizing marijuana. Im all for it, and so is most of this state. but, the "fedz" will probably step in and override our votes. shitty, but who knows, we might be the first state in america to have smoke bars. crazy.

I DO NOT think pot is ok.  two of my best friends became pot heads, and now they are assholes who think there shit does not stink and that everything they say is right.  If you ever correct them on something they say, then they will get verry pissed off. Now they do not like me at all, and I did nothing wrong to them to cause this.  I have smoked it before many times and never liked it.  I am not for legalizing Marijuana except medical purposes.

Why are you guys talking about this on this site anyway???

This is the lounge you know. You can talk about almost anything here, as long as you don't fuck with the board usage policies.

I have a few pot-head friends too, and they have come out with mixed results. None of them have become irritated assholes like you describe. One is actually very smart, and funny too. Most of the others are just more laid-back than usual.

I'm sort-of neutral on the issue. I don't think it should be illegal, only because it's not even as bad as alcohol, and alcohol is legal. And because I think you should be allowed to do whatever you please, as long as it doesn't do harm to others.

Lazygamer...where did you get that?!

Ok here's the thing about p0t. Pot is one of the most random chance drugs there is. It's not so much that you roll a die each time you smoke it, it's that the short and long-term effects it will always have on you are based on the genetics you were given at birth. So in a way, it's REALLY REALLY REALLY random.

However, it's ultra hard to overdose on it. Perhaps it's impossible even. I always assumed that you would pass out from tiredness before you could toke enough to overdose, but my brother(a major pothead) says that you would puke it up before you overdosed. See there you go right there, major randomness effect. Pot makes me tired eventually. So I would fall asleep involutarily before I puked it up, some of you however, woulden't fall asleep. Then there's also the fact that you would get so stoned, that you have an extremely hard time efficiently toking more pot(this happened one day when I got super stoned, it was only 4 fucking joints that did this, not 100. I had trouble getting the dube smoke in because I was so f0cked up). Once again, some of you woulden't. I get ub3r silly on pot, my brother doesn't. etc.

here are scientific facts about marijuana that i am aware of:
-there is not 1 death caused by marijuana in recorded history but THOUSANDS of deaths directly caused by alcohol
-it is almost impossible to overdose on marijuana, people can't smoke any more when their lungs will simply not let them (caughing)
-alcohol causes false assurance wheras marijuana causes extreme paranoia. i was in a car where the driver was stoned and he was the most alert driver i have ever seen, he was going UNDER the speed limit and complaining about how people going the limit "have a death wish" and when he saw a yellow light he would stop instead of speed up. we were on a residential road and my buddy yelled "look out for that kid" (even though there wasn't a kid) and the driver just SLAMMED on the brakes and came to screaching halt.
-drinking a beer kills more brain cells than smoking a joint
-marijuana is cheaper than alcohol, 1 joint costs like 3-4 dollars and it gets you goin pretty good but to get drunk you need to drink like 7 beers which costs you over 7 dollars
-alcohol makes you think you are invincible wheras marijuana makes you think that you can't risk anything
-marijuana has over 10x as much tar as a cigarette does (that's really bad)
-marijuana is 100% not addictive, habbit forming but not addictive

when i say habbit forming, it means you want more but you won't go nuts if you don't have it. if you pass by a steak house you'll go "oh man i want a steak" but you won't freak out if you don't get one, same thing with weed.
