how many times have you realised how much weed suck's but keep smoking it

[S. Fourteen]

Very insightful. It makes me wonder how insightful posts like that got you to that level or "rep" points.

Here is an insight. You claim that weed is overrated and that it smells like shit - that leads me to believe that you've never actually had the right experience with the right weed, if so, you're really not in the position to give a fair judgment... it's like newbs in Street Hop hating on Eminem, calling him wack and overrated but they've only heard My Name Is and Real Slim Shady.

I had this bud that smelled like New shoes before. And it wasnt sprayed with anything.

I highly doubt it. I feel the high, and I know I'm high. I just don't see the big deal. I mean, everything sort of slows down for me, and I blurt out stuff that doesn't make sense and laugh a lot. But, that can be because I'm a beginner, so to speak, I'm not really a smoker. Other times, I get really paranoid and can't sit still. I get that feeling like when you lay in bed and sort of fall asleep and suddenly wake up as if you're falling down from a building. It scares me. Then, there's when I feel like throwing up. I don't know about others, but when the high is going away, it's never a good feeling. You feel like shit. This could be personality-related. I prefer alcohol, that's just me. It gives me a better time.

anyone has a different high u know so it's hard to say it's overrated.
Ok, I will retract my statement when everybody truthfully explains to me why they like weed.


Ok.


I am merely expressing my opinion. I am not talking about anyone, where did you get that? Now, I can't help it if potheads catch feelings because of that.

i guess you havnt had a real good high, i personally have had just 1 good high, well iv had a fair few but there was once i smoked some joint filled with bush and it was the greatest feeling ever, i was just laying back listening to music and eating chips and gravy, it was heaven, i guess u just have to experience it. i reckon you'v been smokin hydro, i personally dont like it either, most times its quite boring and you just sit there wishing you were straight, especially with friends. id much rarther smoke by myself. and as for the smell i had this weed the other week which i have only smelt 1 other time when my friend had it, its actualy quite interesting how i remember the smell so powerfully, just a smell you cant forget, its so fruity, possibly the best scent iv ever encounted.
.. wait a min, i was the one that created this topic saying how much weed sucks.

Fair enough. That's one part of life where I don't want to be more than newb. My point is, like I stated before, I'll retract my statement when everybody truthfully explains to me why they like to smoke weed. Only TheMenace explained his reason, and basically, he thinks he writes better poetry when he's high. I know I haven't smoked enough to judge weed, but....I just hate weed worshippers. Peace.

1) Because it helps you chill out and feel good.

2) It smells ooh soo good.

3) It's fun.

Well I'll come to Sofistik's "defense" and agree with him - weed is overrated. I have smoked my fair share of weed, both the dirtiest of the dirty and the best [/i]this[/i] country has to offer (as well as some good shit from a few others as well). Yeah, the smell was great, the taste was great, the feeling it gave me was great. I couldn't function better when I was high, but at the same time it rarely hindered my ability to function (unless I got really fucked up...at which point its pointless to do any drug to that extent). I thought my head/mind/thoughts were clearer when I was high. I thought I wrote better when I was high. Towards the end of my 7-year run I ever thought I was a better person when I was high, able to function better and just treat people better. However, after a few days of sobriety I quickly realized that I was wrong. I actually hadn't thought so clearly in a long time.

Granted, I had "quit" plenty of times before, but something always brought me back. And I believe it was because I didn't want to quit, other people did. But this time, after a few days of sobriety I threw out my remaining four pipes (my mom had already thrown out the other 2 last time she caught me) and decided to quit for good - whereas I started as only quitting long enough to get a new job and to see if weed was maybe even the reason for my discontent with my life and decisions. It turned out to be just that.

Weed fucked up my life, plain and simple. I wasn't a total lazy bastard, which is why I never thought weed was the problem. I still functioned fine (it even seemed like I drove better high...heh), was ambitious to a certain extent...did my studies to a certain extent. But it hindered me from my full potential. If I wasn't constantly high I would've done much better in school, wouldn't have put off registration and would be in the honors program, I would have a better job rather than just sitting @ the same shitty job cuz it was "stable," and I wouldn't have broken my girlfriend's heart several times. Without weed I would be in a much better position, most likely NOT in debt; and possibly even moved out of my parents house and still be able to go to school.

This is how weed fucked me over for almost 7 years, and has fucked many people over in a similar manner; and this is why the drug is overrated. People place it so high (no pun intended) up, defend it with their life because its a "herb," but it really is one of the most dangerous drugs out there. Granted, I am glad weed was the hardest drug I did - but its still a ruiner of lives. Luckily I was able to find my way out of its clutches and get my life back in order. My grades are being brought up to what they should be (at least close...since I only got out of my drug-induced haze a few weeks before semester's end, after much damage had already been done) and me and my girl got back together and are now actually engaged.

Yeah weed is fun for a while, but its very dangerous. So ya'll need to be careful. Sorry for the rant, just something I had to get off my chest.

Peace

Well, I think Limn story says it all........it all depens on the person. Some can handle weed, some don't. Few can handle coke and pills, many can't. It depens on the person.

defend it with their life because its a "herb," but it really is one of the most dangerous drugs out there.

I don't agree. Weed never killed noone and if your're soeber for a week, all the side effects are gone. Man, with other drugs that's different......that statement really hurts man.

[Quasimodo]

for awhile i was addicted.. but i been away from it a lot lately.. used to smoke like 8-9 blunts a day, lol. now i might only smoke 2-3 blunts a week, thats a big recession for me. things are getting better. i'm actually getting high now, lol, because i had gained such a high tolerance to the drug. weed is nothing special. i just smoke it to calm me down.

 

[AnarchistFunk]

weed is like anything else, you over do it , it loses its essence, been there slowed smoking down then went crazy again, but now im trying to smoke one blunt in the afternoon and maybe a joint at night, cuz i wanna smoke to get high, not just to smoke, it easily becomes ritual and loses its essence....

as for weed fucking up peoples lives, only YOU can fuck up your life, not weed, not drugs, not anything, you control your life not something you smoke, blaming weed on fucking up your life is just an excuse to not take blame or responsibility to what happened in your past

as for the smell, ooooowwweeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[Bigg Limn]

You're right only you can fuck up your life, but other factors can also attribute to it. And I didn't say its dangerous because its a killer, I know its never killed anybody. I said its dangerous because of the hold it has on your psyche, without you even knowing it.

 

[S O F I]

1) Because it helps you chill out and feel good.

2) It smells ooh soo good.

3) It's fun.

1)Listen to music or watch movies with friends, donate to a homeless, help out a friend.

2)Flowers

3)Basketball, girls, porn, etc.

Catch my drift?

My whole point is, people look to drugs such as weed for those things you listed. They don't understand that those three things are one of the easiest things you can achieve in life.

OK I understand your point. However weed gives me that goodtime feeling especially when smoking with friends therefore I'm going to continue doing it. You watch TV to chill out, I smoke, each to his own.

nice, I agree so much that I gotta rep you.

^The same can be said about weed "making you a better writer" or however you wanna put it. Weed isn't making you write those things, YOU have it in you to write them - you just haven't found out how to do it on your own.

yea thats true, however it is proven fact that marijuana and mushrooms do help open the artistic side of your brain

My way is much healthier. But, I ain't yo daddy, lol.

 

[xXHizzo.M40Xx]

Everytime i am stoned, i always say to myslef this is the last time.... thankfully i actually picked my ass up and quit ages ago now

 

[Chronic]

Weed is not physically addictive.
So the only thing it takes for people to quit weed is will power.
I smoke every day, I'm now going to quit for a while because my throat is fucking up, I'm physically too unfit to smoke (I'm always tired, so weed just makes me extra tired) and I don't get high anymore. I'm gonna get in the mood to smoke weed a lot but all it takes is some will power.
If you can't do that, you're too weak to deal with weed. Weed only fucks up the people that can't deal with it. And if you're too much of an idiot to let it get out of control, it's your own fault and not the weed.

Weed can be amazing. I'm depressed a lot and it helps. The experience of TV, food, music, sex are all heightened because of it. It can help (some) people do certain things better. Bad things happen only when people can't deal with it.
The whole weed 'worshipping' thing you won't understand until you start smoking every day.

"They don't understand that those three things are one of the easiest things you can achieve in life."

You don't understand that not everyone can achieve those things as easily as you. There are some people with problems.

And weed helps me with my problems, so fuck you

Also, if you really want to experience what weed has to offer, in my opinion you have to become a frequent user for a period of time. So you're familiar with the drug and know exactly what it does. Once you know that, you can create the perfect atmosphere for yourself when high.
That said, weed isn't for everybody. Some people are drinkers, some people don't want either.
