i love the smell so very much.

even though i've only smoked up like, twice. *shrugs*

around here, cops will bust a grow op, but not care much for people smoking joints in the streets.

i honestly don't like people doping up in front of me, but then again, i despise it even more when people smoke tobacco within 10 miles of me.

hurray for contradiction.

</personal opinion>

i love the stuff....its pretty socially acceptable here....almost everyone i know, young and old indulges in the green stuff...there is actually a place in downtown hamilton called "up in smoke" that is a place to go and smoke pot and they sell all the paraphenalia there too....because it is technically a privately owned club and they dont actually sell pot there, the cops cant do much about it.....so to make a long story short., it is pretty common to smoke a joint around these parts

I know alot of teachers who toke. I know this because once in the summer me and my friend Cody were sitting in a park at night smoking and we met my grade ten science teacher, this old guy, and he said "rock on!" and laughed.

I still think its stinks, I'd rather smelly a fat man's sweaty underwear rather then smell pot. ugh. Plus I don't like the way the pot smell gets into one's clothing.

i love the smell of pot. it's relaxing. has good memory associations. reminds me of happiness and concerts and parks and nature and love and hope.

that being said, i've never smoked. i get high enough without the aid of drugs - and low enough too. i know i'd become addicted pretty quickly if i ever indulged.

Yeah, I'm the opposite. I have a completely not addictive personality. If I stopped today and never smoked up again, I would be a happy girl. I prefer the way I get my chemical alterations though.

OK, I have to say one thing... just because something's "socially acceptable" doesn't make it ok. That's not a solid argument for anything.

Alright, two things... I can't stand the smell of it, either.

Nikki has a point. I think Sonya and whoever mentioned it said it to just.. understand that here, the culture is very open about it. That has nothing to do with why I like it though. I do just cuz.. I do. I don't have a motive or anything

i smell like russian prince right now. it's beautiful.

who is russian prince?
boyfriend?
omg
russian boyfriends, best evarrr
max was russian
and even though we dont get along..
it was a beautiful relationship.

russian prince is a type of weed

although i do kinda smell like boy's aftershave too.

but it's only cuz it spilled in his car and his entire car reaked of it

i wish he were my boyfriend.

drugs are bad news!!

i want that bag

Where I’m at, drugs are entirely socially acceptable based upon the severity of the negative effects. Pot is consistent everywhere, & everyone seems to smoke it. (I do agree, though, that this is not an argument in favour of their usage.) More hardcore drugs are frowned upon my quite a few people in my area, but are just as often used by others.

I used to be really big on abstinence in the case of narcotics. I didn’t see much of a point. But, I was young & naïve … I’m finding myself very tightly bound to their consumption as of late. The fact that it’s no big deal around here certainly doesn’t offset my positive regard of them. Hell, the top five players on my school soccer team are a few of the biggest stoners in my high school. We have the best soccer team in our league. The five of them also play on a team together and are #1 in Ontario. They smoke before ninety percent of their games!

(I like the smell. But, I always have.)

Personally I think pot (and most/all drugs in general) are stupid if it isn't for medicinal purposes.

I don't want to offend anyone or anything, it's just that my school is full of stoners and they're all idiots and obessive about pot ("Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude I am soooooooooooo hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh right noooooow! Lets race shopping carts down the hallway") so I never associate it with anything but these morons. Hey buddy- learning may not be cool but I'm trying to get something done with my life!

I have a couple questions.... I assume people get high to make themselves feel good, is this why you guys do it? Also, I assume it helps people forget about the bad things in life or it acts as a stress relief... Is this another reason? or is it just because society is doing it, it is something you do as well? (That isn't meant to sound bad, it's just a fact of life that people do what society deems as normal)

Originally I did it because I was curious. Its fun.

I don't smoke up to make myself feel better, or relieve stress or anything though. I've always been of the belief that you should be able to deal with problems and stuff without any crutches in the way, or anything to make it easier possibly, because usually it will just make it worse.

Mostly I do it.. just because. I have no reason, I think its fun, things become so comical, etc.

I do it because I enjoy the sensation. I like just sitting there when I'm stoned and closing my eyes and being aware of how each part of my body feels. That being said, I like life when I'm not stoned, but everyone once in a while it feels good to be stoned too, just to feel different for an hour or two. I have this really bad habit of over thinking things waaaay too much, for instance if I'm really happy in a situation or having a good time, i have to analyze why it is I feel good, or what this means in terms of my relationships with others or myself etc. When I'm on pot, I just accept things. Things become simpler. I don't deal with crucial things when I'm on pot, I do it at times when I know I have nothing to worry about.

I love the smell of pot. Dont really know why. I dont like it at concerts though. Just the concerts that ive been to at least, like the ones where you already cant breathe (this goes for cigarettes though too) and the last thing i want to breathe in is second hand ANYTHING smoke. haha.

I smoked up quite a bit last summer. I never really got stoned, until one night...

Good lord. it was so bad. lmao. I was with my buddy chelsey... and we were under a dark bridge down the road from where i used to live. The place was a TINY town so theres like two cops driving around in circles all night when they arent playing video games at home... but anyway... i was all like, yeah, i want to see what it is like to get STONED.

I have anxiety problems. Not to say this was THE ONLY reason why but, i freaked out SOOOOOOOOOOo bad. My stomach hurt and i was convinced i was dead *lol* and I kept grabbing chelseys arm to make sure she was there, even when we got in the street light. We walked to her bf bens place *mutual friend and neighbor* and he was sober, but both of them had to hold my hand, and walk with me for about an hour before i would stop COMPLETELY WIGGING OUT. Lets jhust say it felt like an hour long mega mega mega fuckin panic attack. and i hate panic attacks, looking back on it it is humourus but i think that Chelsey, being a stoner, could have helped me out a bit more and said, easy there Sarah. Or something. I mean its my own damn fault but hey.

That said, even when i calmed down, i really did not enjoy the feeling. But oddly enough i smoked a little bit with them a few days ago, and i had such a good time. I was Spiderwoman. and I kept giggling abotu nothing... and i was playing with this toy ray gun thing, and i was aiming it at their ferret's cage, her name is Buddha, and she freakin bit one of the little light bulbs and BROKE IT! I thoughht it was pretty damn funny.

So yeah. I work at a chemical dependancy outpatient place. Im only an office assistant, but still. Just makes me nervous to do anything. Pot is the only thing i will ever try.... im scared to death of feeling really fucked up... besides being drunk.. cuz i have THOUGHTS when i am drunk. Like when i was super stoned that night, I had no thoughts in my head. and it scared the shit out of me cuz theres ALWAYS shit running through my head - cuz i tend to overthink and overworry about every little thing. So i think thats another reason why i flipped out. Anyhow, I think pot is OKAY if you arent getting into trouble and taking care of your business/life. I think its alright in moderation, etc. BUt it can also be horrible for some people, families, etc.
