Smoking weed

[Manifesto]

*sigh* I have been driven to the point of where I have to smoke weed and be able to hang out with friends or not and do nothing. So which should I choose? Smoke some weed and give into peer pressure or not smoke and do nothing all day. Kinda conflicting but I really have no idea what to do...

[Glenn Beck]

If you don't like getting stoned, don't smoke weed. If you can't stand to be around your friends without being stoned, get new ones.

[Manifesto]

If you don't like getting stoned, don't smoke weed.More like I have never done it.

No they just are getting high constantly.

There isn't anything wrong with smoking weed. Laws against the use of marijuana are just another way in which the state oppresses the people. Try to get more dynamic friends..

[Pirate Utopian]

Atleast try it.

[No pasarán]

Do what you want. Smoking weed isn't always a bad thing, though it can consume yer life. Try it, but don't waste yer life stoned- most people who are constantly on it don't achive much.

[Jazzratt]

It might be worth tryin it, but I seriously doubt that trying it because of your asshole friends is the best idea.

Bring a friend. I can smoke your share. :D

[Il Medico]

Do what you want. Though, I would try it, it is quite nice.

[mykittyhasaboner]

Go hang out with those assholes, smoke their weed, then ditch em? That is if you don't like being with them.


Smoke some weed and give into peer pressure or not smoke and do nothing all day. There's not much of a decision here. :D If you end up smoking you might just do nothing all day anyways. Except it will be more fun.

[Manifesto]

...I suppose I could try it at least once. And I know its not bad or anything but it has just never really appealed to me and I feel like am I really being left with no option but to do it.

[RedStarOverChina]

Well, unfortunately that's the way things work in real life...I feel like I have a hard time maintaining my friendship with some of my best friends because they're all interested in either basketball or soccer or both.

Also I smoked my first joint partly due to peer pressure.

[Pirate Utopian]

I smoked my first because it was offered to me.

Seriously, don't do it if you don't want to. Smoking weed or cigarettes, drinking, etc., should be solely your choice, not anyone else's. If your friends aren't willing to hang out with you unless you smoke weed, then they're pretty fucked up, IMO. They should be willing to keep the weed to themselves and respect your right to not use it, just as you should respect their right to use it.

This; I hung out with my friends (who smoked) for quite a long time before I began smoking (and finding out what I missed out on all those years :thumbup1:).

There isn't much that bothers me more than this kind of thing, and people doing nothing but talking about the drugs they do.

I'm fine with people talking about it for awhile but not all the goddamn time.

[bcbm]

submit to peer pressure or no one will ever like you or want to be your friend ever again for the rest of your entire life.

[Scary Monster]

Theres absolutely nothin wrong with smokin weed. Its quite fun too. But if you dont wanna do it because you have certain prinicples, then dont do it. Though youll really be missin out ;)

[Rusty Shackleford]

id say try it. but on your terms. not on theirs.

if you dont want to, then dont.

[~Spectre]

Weed may have something to do with the marxist analysis of harry potter that I participated in (politics forum).

[scarletghoul]

Try it once or twice, then decide if you want to hang with them anymore.

I personally don't like weed as I find it boring

No they do not talk about it too much actually. They do however preoccupy themselves with it in their free time.

I do drink but that is because I love the taste of it. They are not saying they will not hang out with me if I do not do although they bring up the fact that they do it and I don't a bit. I think there may have a bit of a confusion here. They have never directly given me an ultimatum but they have said that I shouldn't be somewhere because I do not smoke that.

I thought about it but seeing as how if I was going to do it, it would be today for the irony (National Weed Day). So I guess I won't do it until I actually decide to.

Yeah. Everyone should do exciting drugs like crystal meth.

In all seriousness, though, weed is SUPPOSED to be a boring drug. It's a drug you take if you just want to relax...if you want to be up and about on drugs you should take Ecstasy or something.

I think that we've had this conversation before, though...

[bcbm]

weed boring? must be doin it wrong

[Mumbles]

Guys, we gotta remember though, if he's not feeling so great about doing it with this group of friends it might not be a great experience, I know I hate hanging out with certain people because they're just fucking weird normally but high they're scary weird, especially hands on people. haha Especially when you weren't prepared to be stuck with them.

My advice is ask them if you can borrow enough to try on your own terms, I know this sounds like you're bumming, but starting off in a calm environment will allow you to try it for yourself without them trying to influence your decision. Also, if it's your first time, don't get geeked out. :D

That last part almost sounds like they're concerned about your safety in case they get busted. If that's the case, then I can respect their concern.

I always put it in the microwave on "low" for like a minute. Don't see the big deal about it tbh

[dubaba]

If your going to smoke weed do it because you want too, not because of peer pressure. You can still hang around them and not smoke if you dont want too.

That being said marijuana is awesome:D

lol No more like a sober guy shouldn't be with us kind of thing.

[Tablo]

I tried it to begin with because I was curious. It can be fun, but my first time I was horrified. I took three hits from a 12 inch gravity bong. I was super paranoid. it wasn't pleasant... I have smoked since then and enjoyed it, but it really is overrated. I think you should try it atleast once at some point, but if you really don't want to then don't. It is your decision in the end.

'Common sense' as defined by someone with a photo presumably of his smiling hairy testicle as an avatar. Very trustworthy. :-P

[Sir Comradical]

It's a good idea to try SOME drugs (not pcp, ice or heroin) here and there. I've tried weed, ecstacy, acid, valium and ketamine, but I don't smoke cigarettes and I drink in moderation.

Moderation, that's the key.

Enjoy.

QFT. Moderation is always the key. The second you start doing anything regularly is the point you might have a problem.

[Die Rote Fahne]

Being a stoner only becomes a bad thing when weed goes outside of free time and into time that you are supposed to be spending on stuff like work, school and whatever.

Actually, my testicles aren't all that hairy as was pointed out in the thread where that picture first appeared!

That's fair enough. If people want to smoke weed, by all means. But regardless of a stoner being a bad thing, it's never a good thing. There's a refusal amongst smokers to admit that at best and at worst, there's an attempt to portray being a stoner as a positive thing.
