being a doped out addle brained zombie is not what America should be about. we need clear thinkers, people who can help us to become a greater nation, not wastoids laying on the couch getting the munchies! good grief!
Cite your source please. I would love to read a publication that clearly stated that smoking cannabis leads one to become a "doped out addle brained zombie". I'd also like to know why it is that you seem to believe that pot smokers are "wastoids" and that they "lay on the couch getting the munchies".
First of all, I smoke weed. I smoke a lot of weed. Most people I know who do not smoke marijuana, do not know I smoke marijuana. If I were to tell them that I do, they probably wouldn't believe me. I am a clear-thinker, probably much more-so than yourself. I guarantee I am more intelligent and open-minded than you, just from reading your post.
Second of all, I have never laid on a couch under the influence of marijuana. Now it may sound silly to say that in retort, however, it just goes to prove to you that not all pot smokers are lazy. The only time I lay on a couch is if I am going to take a nap. Most pot-smokers I know pride themselves on the fact that they do not follow the paradigm regarding marijuana. Many people I know who smoke marijuana are body builders, athletes and academic scholars.

You don't know what your talking about, so don't spew insults about people that could very well be potential and beneficial friends. I repeat, you do NOT know what your talking about. | |

Then change your profile to read that you do, in fact, use drugs.
Do as you wish, but don't misrepresent yourself to any potential girlfriend, she might not share your love of marijuana. | |

Posted: 5/20/2009 6:35:26 PM | | I would not date anyone that smokes pot. Not because I think that it is wrong because I do think that it should be legal, but because I am allergic to it for some reason. | |

Posted: 5/20/2009 7:16:34 PM | I don't really go on dates with girls from this website, I just network. I have found that dates acquired on this website are all too often undesirable.
Fact is, people choose to put what they want to put on their profile. I chose not to put myself down as a "drug user" because I have never in my life been labeled as a drug user by anyone, regardless of smoking marijuana or not. Maybe people are just too relaxed here, but if I called marijuana a drug, most people would say I am exaggerating, even though marijuana does technically contain a drug. | |

But you're quite open about using the DRUG marijuana? You don't really need for other people to say it for it to be the truth.
Maybe people are just too relaxed here, but if I called marijuana a drug, most people would say I am exaggerating, even though marijuana does technically contain a drug.
People are pretty relaxed here too, but every user I know would readily acknowledge that pot smoking is drug-use.
It's no different from an overweight person 'feeling' they aren't really overweight, or a short person 'feeling' they're not really short, it takes away your potential date's right of choice.
If you're really comfortable with your choice, put it out there for all to see. | |

Posted: 5/21/2009 2:46:35 PM | Done and done man. You know, to be honest, I just never really thought of putting it on my profile. Thanks for giving me the idea.
I am a drug user. Everyone who doesn't like drug users should stay away from me. I just might be a bad person  | |

Posted: 5/24/2009 12:00:19 PM | So then I would hope you'd never be with someone who drank alcohol, since it's much worse than marijuana.
I've never heard a valid argument for how weed is worse for you than drinking and/or smoking cigarettes. The only real difference is that weed is illegal. Does that mean you're gonna shun someone who speeds? I mean that's against the law too.
And to be honest, I've rarely met people who were violent or just plain douchebags because they were high, yet there's plenty of people who get drunk and just act like complete a**holes. | |

I avoid drunks and potheads in equal measure, both are just as tedious if you get cornered at a party by them. | |

Posted: 5/25/2009 6:03:45 AM | | johnny: I agree that alcohol is the worst drug of them all but that doesn't excuse the fact that weed is also bad. The fact remains that illegal is illegal no matter who doesn't agree. I don't think we're that far away from legalization but I still wouldn't want it around me anymore than any other kind of smoking. | |

Posted: 5/25/2009 11:04:54 AM | | Johnny: Actually, I have more tolerance and respect for pot smokers than people who get drunk constantly. I'm not a big fan of the violence, drama and homewrecking that goes along with drinking. I've never heard of these problems with pot smoking. I don't drink, smoke or use anything but I can definitely understand the frustration that pot smokers feel when something as damaging and dangerous as alcohol is legal and so accepted. | |

Posted: 5/25/2009 11:30:36 AM | After seeing this thread thrive with ignorance....I have come to the conclusion that, it is not so muc that me as a non-smoker who cannot handle pot smokers....it is quite simply I do not mesh with those who compare apples to oranges (pot versus alcohol/tobacco/prescribed drugs)...the thread is not asking you to compare such!
No one has the right to compare pot smoking to prescription drug usage, unless it is prescription drug ABUSE. Then I would say MOST DEFINITELY...you fall into the same category as one another.
And unless a drinker is having one drink per hit of weed...or spending the same on alcohol as on weed...I really do not see the comparison, either!
And the last "argument" when it is broached that pot is illegal...."so is speeding!" Pffft! So is anal sex, for that matter...but they do not have an agency put together to find offenders of such...and *I* can't go to jail if I am with YOU in the car, speeding...*I* won't get in any trouble if you speed to my house...Your speeding does not show up in MY piss test...etc. All pretty fvcking ignorant arguments that sound like they are coming from....yeah....a buncha potheads.
To me...you are not even considered a "pot smoker" if you take a hit on a rare occassion, and don't buy the sh1t. So...for those who DO smoke it daily, for those who smoke while working, for those who smoke it while caring for their children, for those who spend their money on it....Nope...want nothing to do with you. My choice.
Judging you on such? Damn fvcking right. | |

Posted: 5/25/2009 4:02:08 PM | While in highschool, I didn't associate with pot smokers or anyone who drank or smoked cigarettes. It wasn't something I did out of my way, most of these people only hung out with those that did it, so it was pretty divided in my school naturally.
In grad school, my bf was a pot smoker and most of my close friends. At first it was nerving for me and I was scared I would be influenced .
Now that I am single, I think I would highly prefer one that didn't do any drugs, or smoke. Drinking socially is okay by me, bc I also do it. I don't judge anyone who does do drugs, I just think it's hard for me to handle. Iknow some people can handle it and not let it consume their life, but for my social group it was different. They seemed to do it all the time, and if they were out of it, they were keen on getting some. It was very time consuiming.
I don't mind if my partner does it once in a while, in a social group. That's the most I would accept. However, if it was a daily --weekly habit, I don't think I would date the person. | |

Posted: 5/31/2009 7:59:00 AM | Old thread...but here it goes...
Pot smokers and non-pot smokers make poor couples,because serious marijuana users are like alcoholics.
They usually don't care that their personal behaviors are affecting the relationship and will rationalize any number of excuses as to why they won't quit using or alter their behavior.
And ,additionally,since weed is still ILLEGAL.... using marijuana,storing marijuana,buying marijuana,etc can cause unneeded hassles (legal and otherwise) for the non-using partner.
If you 420...then you should find a partner that does as well.
If you don't...then you should be prepared for being w/ somebody that cares more about getting high than you and your personal well-being. | |

Posted: 5/31/2009 5:28:32 PM | It's becoming pretty acceptable in some parts of the country. I was recently in Seattle and it seemed like everyone there did. Here in Colorado, it's legal medically and I have a license!  | |

Posted: 6/5/2009 7:23:05 PM | The new younger people that moved in next to me seem very decent. Joe has had a lot of really bad tenants. He trusts my judgement.
I talked to my landlord today, also. I am the encylopedia of my street.
I told him that next door is now occupied and they are really decent kids (sadly now that I am over 40, 20-ish becomes a kid). I hypothesized that they are most likely pot smokers, but also really nice kids.
We are all okay with that, so long as theyare good neighbors, quiet and respectful. Liking to smoke a little bit of pot does not make someone a bad person, and it is much safer than drinking and driving! | |
