hey so i want to start getting back into it but i want to know what you guys think about
Is America really the land of the free? or the home of the brave even for that matter?
What do you mean by good or bad?
Im about to go smoke a bowl, i will report back my opinion.
@NCDS: When are we going to smoke together?
Wouldn't it be cool if everyone here got together and smoked.
I have concluded that it is good for you if you are in pain or stressed out from your daily lifestyle,.
fun fact: From the member map, me and NCDS like like 15 mins away from eachother.
For the grammar nazis: NCDS and I.
Where do I find this member map at because I have never seen it.
even tho im a weekly smoker i voted bad because as does everything these days it affects your health!

Honestly, I see way to many of my friends addicted (yes it's an addiction) to the stuff and slipping in school and their personal lives because they would rather smoke than do anything else. I guess the high that you get from smoking is "good", but there are other ways to go about relaxing and de-stressing -can't see any other reason to smoke- than wasting money on burning grass and THC.
If you're worried about weather or not cannabis is bad for you, maybe you should do some research yourself in order to determine that. A poll is not always going to give you objective answers. You should seek facts, not opinions.
But if you wanted my opinion, here it is:
When you see people who can say that weed ruined their life, you can classify them as stupid. This was best said by Joe Rogan: If weed ruined your life, it's because weed was there first. If you didn't have weed, then it would be something else to ruin your life. It could be cheeseburgers, scratch tickets or video games. Just because you're an idiot doesn't mean you should blame it on the weed.
I've once had a guy who's in his 40's tell me that he used to smoke week when he was young. He told me to never smoke it because it's a waste of life. He was in the hospital for some time and the "friends" he used to smoke with, gave him the back and he says that weed is only something which is not worth doing. If you want to stick out of reality for a second, grab a book and imagine yourself there.
But I hate when I spend the whole day reading a book and then finish, because then I still have stuff to do and I wasted my day..... :(Quote:

Smoking anything is harmful for your body.
The carbon/ash/whatever that goes into your lung will be stuck to the lung lining. This will cause less area for oxygen to diffuse into your blood stream, and for carbon dioxide to diffuse out.
Basically it makes it harder for you to breathe. And it also damages the lung lining, which can cause cancer and lots of other bad shit.
If you are talking about good or bad...kinda vague. I think its amazing lol. In that sense it is good. Health wise, it does, literally, nothing harmful to your body. marijuana only gets you high, if you get hurt because of that...then is drinking bad?
Hope this helps :P
Directly, it isn't. Indirectly, it is. So my answer is yes.
Health wise it's bad. Even though there's no physical addiction it is a cause of lung cancer. (You're breathing in smoke and it does get right into your lungs!)
Also, I wouldn't smoke regularly. I personally enjoy it more when it's on a rare occasion. Used to smoke daily, but it made my grades drop by quite a bit since I couldn't focus in class even days after when I wasn't even high anymore!
As with all drugs - use in moderation! That's all I can say.
In my opinion, it's silly that it's illegal in most countries, but I'm not the type of person who would say no to smoking a joint once in a while.
Again, moderation is the key here my friend.
You really don't want to be weeded up all the time - it's not a nice feeling. You want to take breaks.
As with any drug - use it to celebrate an occasion, but don't celebrate your life with it. There's people who smoke up every time they go to the movies or go out for lunch. If you start doing that then you'll quickly lose sight of how to naturally have fun.
Having fun on a natural basis is the most important. If you can do that you won't find the need to make every aspect in your life be about the weed.
Trust me I've been there.
Hope this helps,

PS: If you stick to weed, moderate alcohol (no spirits *yuck*) and don't start with things like heroin, exstacy or coke - you should be fine :P. Again, moderation is the key here!
It causes erectile dysfunction.
Haha. Nope, it makes sex feel even better ;) your thinking of alcohol. Good 'ol whiskey-dick.Quote:

Some people shouldn't do drugs because they are stupid and get the rest of the sane drug users lumped into the same boat. I smoke weed, get good grades at my university, play sports, have lots of friends, and haven't "ruined" my life... so I know for a fact it at least works for me and isn't "bad", but I cannot speak for others' ways of life.
It does make you a bit slower if used a lot. Your ability to learn will lower a bit. But it will quickly restore when you stop it for a day or three.
It is better then alcohol, but not healthy.
If it's a comparison between weed and other more harmful drugs etc then the answer is obvious, but comparing smoking weed and staying clean the latter is again, obviously better, physically at least.
It may be mentally healthier to consume moderately if you can't manage stress well, (eg. through healthier alternatives such as sports, or even music).
I voted no, not 1-2 times a week. The only thing dangerous about smoking it 1-2 times a week, in my personal opinion, is the chance of becoming more addicted and doing it daily.
yes, everything is bad for you except coconut, almonds / almond milk & grade B maple syrup
unless you allergic then you gon die
In my opinion weed got boring. I am smoking since 4 years now and it´s not that much fun anymore.
The "bad" things by weed are
- in your mind it gets like chilling #1 and school #2
- after smoking a few years like 1-2gram per day ( + lots of tabak) you will get some annoying slime into your lung which keeps a long time in there.
- also you can get astma from smoking (weed to XD )
- expensive which mean if your addicted you have to get like 10-20$ per day
I prefer taking "Tilidin". Thats my favourite drug.
Normal weed, not the Sherm (or whatever) is fine. It doesn't do anything but make you "High" people find it morally wrong in America because it's against the law. I don't smoke weed, because it's not legal, but if it were, I SURE AS HELL would. Alcohol does WAY more damage to you then Cigarettes. And, it of course does more then Weed, because weed doesn't to anything but stay in your bloodstream longer. I'd say don't do it, because it's not legal. If it ever gets legalized, then by golly, do it. I don't care. My 2 cents
I just died a little inside.Quote:

I smoke every day. Weed and cigarettes. Is it good or bad for me? I could care less.
In my opinion, any form of addiction is unhealthy towards your daily lifestyle. Though it is not the time consuming addiction like gaming, it does affect your health in the long run by smoking weed. Going out and doing some sports could be a stress-reliever for you ( Works for me ). And to get high, I'd just gather a group of friends and go clubbing or something. But I ain't of clubbing age :P. Get high naturally.
Everyone in my school who has every smoked weed never graduated.. Thats what I have seen lol.
^ Not true. My best friend, Alex, smoked 3-4 times a day, and he was in the top 20 in a 700 kid school.
Edit: Just re-read, you said your school. Sorry.
The results of this poll are quite saddening. The true fact is that cannabis has many health benefts. There are several scientific studies that show even when smoked, there is little threat posed to the lungs and respiratory system. In fact, the benefits greatly outweigh any ill effects.
It is amazing to see the lack of knowledge and negative stigma that still surrounds this plant. I just hope that one day everyone can open up their minds and refuse to swallow the misinformation force-fed by popular media.
Living is bad...
That being said, I think smoking is bad for your lungs, no mater the substance. now making special brownies...cant think of any bad as long as you dont eat too many...
Edit:
I graduated college, but I partook only a couple times a month...and I had a 3.6 GPA, and 4.0 out of "high" school.Quote:

Also, if it makes you high and gets you to do stupid things...does that mean my GF is dangerous... :)
This is classic "closed-mindedness", I voted out of personal experience and watching my friends lives get mangled (all starting with weed).Quote:

With this happening, just like an animal gets taught new tricks, our mind starts to perceive that marijuana is essential to get the feeling of reward, thus there is continued use. Some may even bump it up to harder drugs such as crack, meth, or heroin to get a higher rewarding feeling. (My brother had these types of things happen to him, and he started with "harmless" weed, too)
If you cant do it without getting in trouble then I believe it is bad for you.
:P
