Don't you just love it when this day of the week comes?

In a couple of hours from now... I'll be heading home thinking about how many things I'll be doing this weekend (or how many thing I WON'T be doing this weekend ).

NOTE: I don't tend to have all weekends to expand my laziness so.... It's ok for me to be happy today ;7

mmm... no, I haven't even touched any illegal drug so far (as far as I know).

EDIT: and very few of the legal ones.

i wonder if anyone ever refers to marijuana as an "illegal drug" without intending to be ironic.

It's not a legal drug as I see it.

Meh, it IS illegal.  Doesn't stop me from using it. . .but it's illegal.

I still cringe everytime it's thrown in the same basket as drugs like heroine though.

  • A one hit wonder, you still want to touch this.

Anti drug advocates got to have a hand or 3 up there asses twiddling fingers in the good times to place marijuana in the same classification as heroine.

Most of my friends do marijuana. And some things can be told, non addictive, non habit forming, no withdrawal symptoms, and it doesn't negatively harm you.
Every pilot's goal is to rise up in the ranks and go beyond their purpose to a place of command on a very big ship. Like the colossus; to baseball bat everyone.

Well, inhaling the smoke from anything that is burning isn't exactly healthy, but yeah, Cannabis is very much lumped into a category it doesn't deserve to be in, it is considerably less life-threatening than the two 'legal' drugs, tobacco and alcohol.

Yes, it does ;)

Seriously though, Marijuana doesn't do nearly as much damage to the body as drinking alcohol or smoking tobacco does, though it's never good to set light to anything and breathe in the smoke as I said.

There's been a lot of argument about cannabis in the UK, with several drug advisors quitting because they are tired of the government using political measures to rate drugs, rather than scientific ones. It should be noted that there is evidence that smoking pot will affect memory ability in those who start before puberty, though it should be noted, this was through tests being done on mice, but the evidence was pretty convincing, but there have been no long-term damage implied in its effect for people who start smoking it afterwards, the bigger risk is the method most people use, either a pipe, or mixed with tobacco, which opens you up to the risk of lung-problems, but, at least the pipe method is much lower risk with regards to heart disease.

It should also be noted there are several 'kinds' of Cannabis, things like 'Skunk' are slightly different from the natural breeds, they contain far, far higher quantities of THC, and, as such, have a more profound effect. The real risk is concentration, particularly when on a 'hangover', whilst I don't have a problem with someone smoking it, I do have a problem with someone, for example, attempting to operate heavy machinery whilst stoned.

I love it, because I'm now engaged in a ritual of making sure that Goob doesn't.

...

Now I need to look up more obnoxious facts about five-year spans of time....  ;)

the long-term health effects are not what i'm concerned about.  for all i care, you can destroy your own body if you want to.  it's the danger you pose while you are tripping that is the problem. 

but for the record i've been told by doctors that there ARE nasty long-term effects of pot, namely a buildup of some kind of sludgy residue on nerve cells that hampers brain signals.

'Tripping' is nothing whatsoever to do with being stoned for a start, that's the effect of an hallucinogen, which Cannabis isn't.

As for 'sludgy residue', I've not heard anything of the sort, the closest effect to that I have heard is in the case of extreme Methamphetamine users, where dopamine levels are so high that the person is borderline phsychotic. Methamphetamine is a somewhat different animal from Cannabis. Do you have any links to these studies that claim Cannabis leaves a residue on nerve-endings in the brain?
