I know lots of people who smoke pot regularly. Yes, some of them are pretty cool. However, I would say that about 75% of them are just dumb and lazy with crappy lives, so they smoke weed to temporarily get rid of their problems. Sure, it's "safer" than alcohol, and I get that. However, as previously stated,y'all don't REALLY want it legalized for medicinal reasons (something I would 100% support in a controlled sense), but 99% of people just want it legalized so that they can sit back and smoke it for the hell of it.

I don't smoke and never have smoked pot. I don't drink anymore. I just don't get how they are any different. I've asked but the only answer I get from CC is "y'all just want to get high" . How is that any different than those who just want to get drunk?

I don't know anyone over the age of 30 or so that smokes to get "stoned" and act a fool. Most smoke in social situations, tell old stories, and discuss topics from various angles that some people in a little life bubble have trouble grasping.
The idea that surgeons, CEO's, business owners, retirees at the age of 45, authors and others that I associate with are lazy potheads makes some of you look like bigger fools than you are.
That you think adults discussing this sit around in their underwear waiting on moms meatloaf and getting stoned all the time like a teenager proves how out of touch some of you are.

Everybody doesn't drink just to get sloppy drunk. Most responsible adults can go to dinner or whatever, have one or two drinks, & be perfectly fine to drive. Smoke a joint & try to drive. Sure most potheads have built up a bit of tolerance & may be more coherent than somebody that doesn't smoke everyday. Isn't that disparity enough in itself? Not saying alchohol tolerance isn't somewhat comparable but one or two drinks on occasion has nowhere near the affect as a joint on a occasion. If you do however drink to get drunk that's ok too as long as you're not hurting anybody else. Same with getting high.

Smoking in a social situation on occasion is ok by me but you're doing it to get high & cut up with friends or whatever. This hasn't been part of any discussion though.

And who cares if people are lazy when they smoke. It's none of our business.

In essence, it isn't different. However, and this may just be my own experiences, every pot smoker I know does it only to get high out of their mind. Most beer drinkers I know just have a few to loosen up and talk by a bonfire with some buds. Granted, I know a few who get wasted. Maybe it's because I'm young, but pretty much every pot smoker I know only does it to get high as a kite.

I haven't been high as a kite in 20 years. Things change as you get older. The thought of sitting around, smoking, eating ice cream and passing out like some college days makes my stomach turn.

Now, if high is defined by accessing parts of the brain and thought processes that others can't get to, don't want to get to, or don't actually have the capability to get to, I guess I have been high plenty of times. Amazing the conversations you can have with yourself when your mind is a little free.

and I also think some people are scared of weed because of what they might find out about themselves. You know. The dark hallways of the brain with locked doors. We all have them. Some people access the area. Some people stay far away from it. Popping pills or overindulgent drinking keeps a person from trying to see what is deep in the heart or brain. Weed brings it out, and some people are scared to death of what they might find.

"Dude", I'll take my life over your sorry, narrowminded, uneducated, day laborer job having ass any day, all day.

Now go on your bathroom break, and make sure you put that pile of crap over in the corner near the other crap in the warehouse before you go home today and drink yourself away from the pain you have from realizing you have amounted to squat, after peaking as a good student in highschool. If that was my life, I would have searched for some help years ago.
