    i think youll find most dumb people drink alchohol

    at any rate i think its stupid that this thread is coming from a guy whos shown of his own idiocity on the forums constantly. hes not gonna get anywhere. hes just another arrogant 'smarter' guy (than the majority) whos gonna get some job they think is respectable and live an unfullfilling life of arrogance, often (but not always) drinkning problems, and then lose their job because of some sort of politics and die sad.

    if the kids with potential actually fullfilled stuff in life do you think the world would still be so shit? the fact is that most smart kids just get jobs that pay high and dont end up actually achieving anything.

    so do the dumb people

    so does practically everyone in life, so the whole 'what are you gonna do with your future' is redundant for like 99.9 % of the population, since the only difference your life is gonna be from someone else who gets a career is the amount of money you get.

    but the world cant spin if everyone is achieving stuff, so its pretty sweet for those who do achieve stuff.

    and realistically the only people who achieve things on the -whole- are scientists (achieving truth), artists (leaving their mark and affecting society), and polititions [and civil activists] (90% of the time they achieve fucking everyone up so that they can gain more power and fuck more peoples lives up. all the good politions and activists are killed or fired/forced to resign ), the latter which you can certainly be a drug fucked moron and still get there ;)

    I agree with Luchador. So many kids I see with one or two kids are spending all their money on pot so they don't have to deal with their problems. It's a huge issue with lower class teens.

    yeah I agree with the sexy girl above me :D

    potheads a drain on society? whatever man but I think it's society that's a drain on a lot of people (or potheads if you prefer), like myself, and yes of course I smoke.
    so MJ should now be reserved for "members of the scientific community" like yourself and Isaac Asimov is it? well what can I say, keep being a pothead bud.
    the problem with people like you is that you think you're better than others (you're a part of that society, or at least try or wish to be). I dropped out of high-school. hated goin to class, and so basically I didn't. wow I'm such a loser, huh? :rolleyes:
    I'm one of those smokers that believes there is more than one way to smoke marijuana, in the sense that you can do it for the kicks and the high or you can use it (take that to mean whatever, but in my case it's more for enlightening reasons, almost even spiritual-and it is from this that I take happiness comes or success or...?).
    I really don't know of anyone who has ruined their lives because of weed. it's not a hard drug (and maybe you're one of few people to still have not realized that). however I will say that whoever said weed isn't a gateway drug was a fucking liar. it is a drug but it is all too commonly categorized with smack or coke etc...weed can lead to drug problems yes, but only if it is abandoned for harder drugs (hence the reason I call weed a gateway drug).
    now please lay off the pot smokers, at least until the crackheads have been busted.
    peace,
    Robi

    ha well i mean i think its just all sterotypes..of course theres that typical "pothead" sterotype....but hey its just a sterotype. it doesnt mean EVERYONE who smokes weed is like that, and even if they were..who kares, you know? and uh, everyone has their own lil lifestyle thing going on and so you cant really tell someone the way they are living or what they do is 'wrong'. well, maybe i may be naive, but you know everyone has their own opinons on everything and people's beilfs are very important to them..so of course there is bound to be some arguements. but i guess the way you live and think may work for you, but that doesnt mean it works for everyone else. i dont think this is really a matter of weed here its just...more just like a matter of different opinons and such. whats that quote from that buffalo springfield song?...nobodys right, if everybodys wrong!!! p.s blueeyedson..i dig yer quote from yer sig!

    I agree with your point-that it shouldn't interrupt with our everyday lives, but you should criticize other people on the forums. People should do what they want to do, don't be a dick about it.

    I refuse to adhere to a set of standards which I feel to be flawed.

    I'm sorry, maybe you really are a "highly intelligent pot smoker / philosopher / member of the scientific community", but you sure don't sound like one. After all, if you really are what you say you are, you wouldn't have to advertise yourself in so conceited a fashion, much less drop the names of those two in the same sentence - as if the act of placing their names next to yours will somehow increase your standing here. Piece of unsolicited advice: it doesn't hurt to show some humility no matter how highly intelligent you are. I don't mean that you should hide your greatness, but there are ways to let it shine naturally without having to blow a trumpet to call everyone's attention.
