Tribs and I get a valentines date?

Technically you don't get a date because you got trips and not tribs.

MFW

when you realize the b button is now where near the p button and realize they wrote trips on purpose. tha fuq.

I am pleased.

When I saw that, I was thinking of oasis- champagne supernova

Unluckily those don't count, you wanted tribs for a date, not trips.

Sorry.

good cause your getting a date with this guy.

fat john lennon?

Fuck you, that's Gabe Newell..

I know this is a few days old, but smoking isn't the only way to use cannabis. While smoking is the most popular way it is the most harmful, but you can also vaporize it, or cook it into brownies or other foods. There are no dangerous carcinogens in cannabis vapor or edibles

mfw stoners disregard any bad outcomes of smoking and over emphasize the very few benefits it has and try to make it sound like a miracle drug

Why has no one ever got cancer from weed?

it's difficult to do studies on weed because of it being illegal. certain groups have started long term studies just recently and conclusive findings have not been published yet. smoke is smoke and during an autopsy it will be labeled as smoking, which is of course grouped with cigarettes.

There's no proof that it does and with the recent legalization of weed in some states I'm pretty sure they can do research with it. Never once caused a human death ever. They tried so hard to prove that it would kill someone they locked 4 monkeys in a room pumping nothing but Marijuana smoke and yes they eventually did die. But who wouldn't?

You're failing to realize that it's been legalized by the state. It's still federally illegal.

Yeah but I have seen documentaries where on camera doctors do studies involving weed.

Well, there's your problem... On-camera doesn't chronicle the long-term effect of anything... But I would like a source to these videos nonetheless... you know, to educate myself...

Super High Me, The Union , A Normal Life, and How Weed Won the West.

... I mean a non-biased study by a reputable institution. Not by people who intentionally set out to prove how "great" weed is.

Show me a non-biased video about how weed isn't good for you.

I can't, because I wouldn't rely on a video to teach anyone about the long-term effects of any drug. (I was being sarcastic in post #399)

I've seen intervention where they have people snorting coke and shooting up heroine on camera...That still doesn't mean it's easy to legally test it.

I seen doctors do it on camera whether it was legal of them to do it or not. They can still test.

My point is just because the state legalizes it doesn't necessarily make it easy to do long term testing. There's all kinds of regulations and legal hoops you have to jump through to do that kind of shit without getting in trouble. And even when you're doing everything right it doesn't take much for the government to shut your shit down.

Your point is?

My point was clearly stated in sentence 1.

How is it not easy?

Here you go dumbass

the same outcome would be prevalent with cigarette smoke. and the legalization was what in january? its hard to do a case study of someone over a 20 year period in a month...

you know how you can look back at those crazy 1940's ads where doctors recommend cigarettes and think how crazy and stupid people were? thats going to be human's thoughts about weed in 50 years

But think People have died from lung cancer no need for a study there is actual proof .Death. But not once has a person EVER died from weed smoking.

lung cancer is caused by tar in the lungs. it is a proven fact that marijuana smoke has much more tar in it than cigarettes. i dont care if there hasnt been a credible study done on the long term effects of marijuana use yet, i can connect the dots and realize that it can cause lung cancer.

Can show me a credible website that states that it has more tar?Marijuana is natural how can it possibly have more tar than a cigarette.

Tobacco is "natural" too...

Although Nicotine is bred in tobacco plants to get plants with the highest nicotine which is also addictive. Also Nicotine is one of the most dangerous natural poisons in the world, so poisonous that it is even put on fields to kill insects. So it's not as natural as Marijuana.

Yes, but it's incredibly difficult to intake an immediately poisonous amount of Nicotine from smoking alone, and "natural" doesn't mean "healthy," dude... It means NATURE-al, which tobacco is...

No it might be Difficult on one cigarette but when you say 1-4 a day for 20 years that's pretty dangerous.I never said natural meant healthy it's just more healthy than chemicals.

Try more like 1-4 PACKS a day. The amount of nicotine in tobacco is actually very minimal. It takes about 35 mg of nicotine to be immediately dangerous. An average cigarette has about 1 mg of nicotine in it.

You're correct but you also have to remember that no pot smoker will smoke as much weed in a day as a cigarette smoker smokes in a day. Also vaporizers and water pipes help filter a lot of the tar and shit out. Not all of it but it certainly helps.

I asked someone how much pot they smoke. With a straight face, he told me a pound a week. A pound a week.

I know this is a few days old but that is fucking impossible. First of all a pound of mid grade weed would cost from 4-6 thousand dollars, I dont know about you, I don't know a single highschooler who could afford to buy a pound every week. Second, I've been smoking a while so my tolerance is somewhat high. I usually buy by the gram, and one gram of some decent weed will last me a few days if i smoke every day. Now i'm not high 24/7 like this kid is, but i'm assuming a gram or maybe two would last someone a whole day. Smoking a pound a week would require someone to smoke 64 grams of weed in a day. Either that guy was bullshitting you, or you're bullshitting us. But either way you know nothing about weed...

Impossible. That's like 27 blunts a day everyday nonstop. And that would cost so much money it's not even possible.

I've never met anyone that smokes that much weed. That's more than 2 ounces a day. To do that you would need to smoke nonstop all day. They're either lying to you or they seriously wake up every morning and smoke with absolutely no breaks until they go to sleep.

I have him in all of my academic classes. He sleeps through all of them, and when he's actually awake, he's in the bathroom smoking weed.

How many hours a day do you have school?

Eight, maybe nine if you include the five minutes between classes, lunch, and the few minutes before school (where everyone gathers at the lake and...smokes weed...).

That guy is a bullshitter dude. There aren't enough hours in the day to smoke more than two ounces to yourself if you actually do things like sleep and school and eat.

There's always after school.

Obviously but that's still only so many hours available.

Wake up at 5 AM, go to sleep at 9 PM. That's.......eh...tired...night, stranger...

You have school for 8 of those hours

How much money does he have because the kind of money it takes to buy 2 pounds of weed a week is expensive.

funny thing when no one has yet gotten cancer from weed!

Dude, he's right. Weed does have more tar in it than cigarettes.

it does but the cancer part is wrong, it actually slows tumor growth and cancer etc; etc;

Wrong... THC slows cancer. Marijuana doesn't just have THC in it, though...

But it does have THC in it. So your point is?

... Did you just read my comment and comment without reading the conversation...? Okay, I'll explain it to you: THC will slow the growth of cancer a little, but the fact that marijuana contains almost 3 times the amount of carcinogens as cigarettes probably more than compensates for that.

But it doesn't contain 3 times more. Where did you hear this?

Forgive me, I meant 3 times more tar and almost twice the carcinogens. Source:
NIDA Research Report on Marijuana Abuse

There have been studies that show that marijuana can possibly slow certain kinds of cancers but it's not all cancer in general and nothing has been proven yet.

The tar within the weed starts emphysema which is what most smokers die from. Smokers don't die from smoking weed, but they die because of smoking weed, fucking dumbasses. You men who supported that weed is still bad have my props. Respect broz.

Thanks but I don't think weed is bad. I think some people are just stupid when they smoke but they're usually the kind of people that are stupid either way. I believe weed is bad for you but I still think it should be legal because it doesn't hurt anyone other than the person smoking it. Almost everyone I know that smokes are responsible people that have jobs and lives and do what they need to do and just enjoy smoking a bowl every now and then. Personally I don't have a problem with that and I only have a problem with the retards that don't need a drug that makes them even dumber.

I completely agree with that, most of my friends are potheads anyways, and some of them are in IB, what matters is doing it a lot, as you said. As long as you control it, you're good.

Weed doesn't ruin lives. They ruined them when they lost control, I know plenty of people who smoke weed go to college,have wife and kids, live ordinary lives. It's the people who aren't smart enough to do it in moderate when they know they don't have enough discipline to stop when needed to. So people who don't have enough control make it seem worse than it is it doesn't cause any medical problems. People need to learn the facts if someones live is ruined because of weed it's there own fault.

Pot makes certain people extraordinarily lazy. Those are the people that need to not smoke...Ever

As I've heard Robin Williams say:
"With California weed, you'll be so fucking mellow even your cat will be like 'GET UP YOU ASSHOLE!'"

lol

his point is; things that don't cause you harm in rational and moderate use should be okay.
