MFW someone even slightly suggests that weed is healthy/ good for you/ cures cancer (i'm not saying i don't smoke weed i do once a week or so)

the smoking part is not good for you, but it is just the smoke, the properties of smoke in general are not good for you, if you eat or vaporize cannabis is a whole other ballpark, true, it is not healthy, but it does have many significant medicinal benefits

and it does not cure cancer, but it has been proven in many cases where it has shrunken the size of a malignant tumor and caused it to stabilize and not be as big of a threat to the body

Actually, the National Cancer Institution performed studies that proved that Cannabis has anti-cancer and anti-tumor effects. www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/cam/cannabis/healthprofessional/page4
Also, there was a study proving that cannabis smoke has anti-inflammatory effects on the lungs, but I can't remember who it was that did it off of the top of my head.

Idc if people do it, but youre wrong, theres the effect the makes you sit on the couch for hours being completely unproductive

that my friend is known as couchlock, it is mostly experienced by newcomers to cannabis, but those who have smoked before and are familiar to it and have built up a little tolerance can overcome the effects of couchlock, and couchlock is only felt by people who have smoked too much weed, and that is a very negative and untrue stereotype, there are many people who can fully function and go to work while high, i personally use cannabis medically to help with an eating disorder and high blood pressure, when i wake up i have absolutely no appetite and no energy, sometimes i cannot even get out of bed, but if i take a few hits of a strong sativa when i wake up, i get that energetic, upbeat high i am almost fully energized, i can actually eat, and during the day i hardly ever eat if im not medicated, i smoke a bowl or two, i go to work, i come home, go to class, and come home and try to relax, what im saying is, its not good to make generalizations, because almost all of the time, they are negative and untrue

That is only if you smoke Indica that makes you sit around. Sativa on the other hand, gives you energy and makes you want to get up and move. Also, for the record, you're currently sitting at the computer being unproductive right now.

Thats a common stereotype, when i'm sober all I do is sit on the computer playing games. When i'm high I want to go outdoors and do things, meet new people, etc/

Stereotypes exist for a reason.
But nobody who fits the stereotype likes to admit it's true.
Maybe a few people go out when they're high, most don't.
Also, shame on you for wasting your sober time.

People need to learn how to go do things and meet people sober.

There is little chance for sober social gatherings for people in this day and age that aren't complete garbage.

I play gigs around my city in bands, and I bike at my local skate park, and i dont mean to sound cocky but i have a lot of friends..
