I already have all of that and I've never smoked 🙁
You have a higher chance of dying in a car accident than blaming weed for ruining your life as a low iq dyel. cope harder and blame yourself for once
Most weed smokers are unemployed or work dead end jobs
I'd say that's a higher chance of ruining your life than a car crash
Every corporate office job you've worked has had weed smokers and you just didn't know about it because adults keep that shit to themselves instead of adopting the "stoner" identity
That's some true schizo-level druggie delusion cope.
Every corporate office job you've worked also has had shape shifting lizard people and you just didn't know about it because they keep that shit to themselves.
You're the schizo here, cannabis use is widespread as frick. Equating the use of a substance that's exponentially less harmful than ethanol with the schizo repitilian conspiracy theory makes absolutely no sense, fool.
>cannabis use is widespread as frick
True, but to ignore the fact that a small, but sizable percentage of the population can develop psychosis from THC exposure is irresponsible. The population at large is playing Russian roulette. Weed is not a “safe drug” like many people on here try to argue. It’s safe for the majority, sure.
Only idiot deny it. Most people know this as a fact. I smoke weed myself but it annoys me how many frickin morons talk about how its safe
Same can be said about alcohol. Some people become irrationally angry and violent with even marginal exposure. And yet, alcohol is legal. And that existence of a double standard is prime real estate for dude weed bros to make a salient argument for legalization. People sometimes have allergic reactions to peanuts, should peanuts be made illegal? The same could be said about literally anything. There's very little to rationally justify alcohol being legal from a cost on society (utilitarian moral) standpoint, yet it is because the alternative of trying to enforce prohibition is ironically far more damaging. People gonna drink, people gonna smoke, some are gonna flip the frick out and there's nothing we can do about it, legal or not.
True it's not safe for everyone. I at some point realised it was beginning to affect me in bad ways after many years of using it; suddenly it was shit for me, im just lucky i havn't touched it again for several months now
Corporate jobs don't do drug tests and their employees are allowed to consume it because THC, Delta 8, and other analogues are legal pretty much in the whole US now. You're kidding yourself if you think nobody at your job does it
sounds like youre not very liked. aside from heavy drinking, most corporate workers smoke weed but not as much as stoners
Nah, the replies are right. A lot more people smoke weed than you'd think. Weed isn't some new zoomer shit, it's just more likely that zoomers are potheads because they have nothing to do and likely got hooked on that shit when they were a teen
You're right, but the cope rolls in each time.
my office was full of weed smokers and a lot of cocaine snorters you're just another shutin homosexual that still hasn't seen anything in his life
People have been going into work on all sorts of wienertails of drugs for decades. You wouldn't know about any of that from your vantage point next to your waifu pillow
I'm your boss and I hit a massive bong rip as soon as I clock out
The difference is that, unlike reptilian shape shifters, we all know for a fact that weed smokers actually fricking exist, and that they're relatively common. What a braindead comparison
And they are still a minority compared to the stoners flipping burgers or on welfare.
>and they are still a minority
Thats because there are more poor people than corporate workers you dumb frick. Dead end jobs also include kids in grade school.
UMMM ERON MUH SMOKE ERRYDAY
And Joe Rogan. If you name a billionaire who actually made their money and didn't inherit it, they 100% do THC.
Depends on where you live
>if you aren't working you should die
chaim pls
Recreational marijuana has never made someone's life better
It's not nearly as based as you make it sound, I earned a masters degree in a stem subject while smoking weed everyday, you've just gotta balance it with amphetamines and there's basically no drawbacks besides being expensive
Also makes bulking 1000x easier
>drug problem? use more drugs!
I hate israelites so much it's unreal.
I also have stem degree and studied high all the time.
Still, I don't recommend this green demon. All my willpower was needed to get rid of this smelly and destructive habit. I lost lot of time and someone dear to my heart because of cannabis. Not worth it
>makes life 3x more fun
>the first two days in
>earned a masters degree in a stem subject
Bullshit achievement. If you did it while also working full time and are now earning a significant income, it's a big achievement. If your daddy was paying for his little 20 year old boy to get baked or you got memed into loans, you're a moron.
This one is true
It's a phase. It's going to be over, after everyone's lost their minds from smoking shit.
>It's a phase. It's going to be over, after everyone's lost their minds from smoking shit.
Most of us choose weed over beer when we want to kick back. Most adults do one or the other.
I'm not american. Weed's been a thing were I'm from, the american trends of criminalizing it to then glorify it only affected us to a lesser extent.
If I want to really relax, I'll do some of both. I'm not a kid, I know both, it just never really happens anymore because I've got serious shit to do. I don't see why you'd need to choose, or belong to a group based on that choice. Not after 20 at least.
Beer is empty calories and kills brain cells. It makes you fat and stupid just by drinking it.
Beer and weed are both shit. Just keep them both far from your mouth, and if you want to enjoy either or both once in a while, don't give a frick.
>muh empty calories
>if you aren't getting a return on your investment in the form of a good career
>getting in debt to be a wagecuck
I have a good career without a degree. The shit you can achieve with effort and social skills is insane. A good career is only a means to sustaining and saving up until you're into business yourself.
Loans are an american trick to keep their population soft-enslaved. Then they get to post le funny millennial memes about the job market being fricked, too bad he wasted his shot studying arts and history of butt sex.
>I have a good career without a degree
Good for you and anyone else that can live a good life doing this. But most people can't, just take a look around you. Do you actually believe most people even have degrees?
That being said, degrees don't always mean a good career. Most students are dumb and never use uni's as a tool and take advantage of all the opportunities given.
If you are smart, degree or not, you will end up successful. Also with a student loans or not, just compare the lifestyle of a dentist to those who work in retail with no loans. Which would you rather take? Id rather live in a lake house, riding my boat on weekends while having student loans.
Solid points. Also despite the brainwashing I’m unironically grateful for having a grad school education. I get there are some people who are just born sharks and can be entrepreneurs without higher education, but there has definitely been a significant correlation in my experience between sophistication of thinking and level of education. I get the obvious reasoning- smarter people are more likely to go to grad school- but I still have consistently found that the more educated a person is the more interesting they are to talk to.
>most people can't, just take a look around you
True. And it definitely wasn't easy or fun so far.
>Do you actually believe most people even have degrees?
I obviously am not that fit to answer that. I believe I am, and I know lots of morons who managed to get theirs in time, because their parents were well off.
>If you are smart, degree or not, you will end up successful
I'm inclined to agree, but I think it's more about discipline. I'm not a genius or anything, I just forced myself to do the least pleasant things possible out of perceived need enough times that I started to apply economic-like thinking to my life choices instead of letting impulse decide.
And even then it's not because I was born moral or smart, if anyone is. There just wasn't anyone to guide me or decide for me as was the case for most people I know.
>compare the lifestyle of a dentist to those who work in retail with no loans
If I went back in time I'd do the same. Retail offers you a more standard shift, nearly humane work, and allows for some social life.
You can instead choose to relocate, do hard manual work, work like a slave, and work unhealthy and dangerous shifts, for more money, to materialize your next steps. Even if you're a complete moron, you can save up to join a cafe with another moron and as long as you're just disciplined about your work it's going to be alright.
Obviously, dentist. I'm just pointing out you have a very specific idea of what poor people do because that's the kind of shit most young poor people do out of misery and laziness.
>Retail offers you a more standard shift
i dont know about that man. i worked at walmart for 2 years and they cut hours around spring and summer times. fall and winter is when everyone gets the regular 40 hours
Have you seen what shifts working at a factory in Eastern Europe gets you?
>you got memed into loans
Its only a meme if you aren't getting a return on your investment in the form of a good career. Literally the only people that talk like this are the ones that aren't using their degrees or have a job that pays as much as a dead end job.
>Be me
>borderline giga autistic savant

sometimes you gotta drop a few points in IQ to stop the overthinking and be a normie
This was me but I took it too far and started smoking all day everyday and became a weirdo who couldnt hold a job for a year. Cut back 70% with the intention to drop it fully soon
I've turned in a pretty good upper middle class life while getting stoned almost every day for the past 25+ years (15 to early 40s). I have an MBA and an upper management job. Been married 15 years and have kids. I don't feel like I've been deficient in any of my responsabilities. You can definitely get by on it.
However, about once a quarter I feel reaply guilty about being a degenerate. Then I quit weed for a few weeks and the difference is night and day. I sleep better and longer, eat less, my workouts are better, I read more, and I'm waaaaaaay more clear headed.
However, I eventually get so bored I relapse. I'm not entrepreneurial enough to do something productive with my time like start a side business. In the end I'd rather get high and woodwork.
If you are fit weed is also the best sex drug there is. It makes your dick slightly numb so it takes way longer to cum. I habe to consciously will myself to bust.
Tldr, it's objectively more productive to not smoke weed, but smoking weed doesn't mean you will be a NEET
>get high and woodwork
Intredasting anon. What do you like to make?
Right now I'm working on projects with angular cuts. I'm finally at the point where I can cut pieces evenly and cleanly (i.e. I don't frick up every cut by the kerf). I built a picnic table and bench that took about 20 hours. I move slow though, measurely everything twice, set extra clamps, and cut more pieces than I need to make sure they are exact.
The first thing I ever built was a simple garage shelf using 2x4s and plywood. My first few projects were freestanding shelves. Once I got better about that I started replacing beams in my porches (5/4). Then I built a monitor stand with slots for cables and roll out shelving. Now I just rando projects.
The next thing I want to learn is to pour concrete. My dad who isn't much of a handyman can pour concrete perfectly. I guess every boomer can.
>pic related, me when I'm not wood working
Only with chronic usage. Man every once in a while it's a good time, or just helps me mellow out. I get what burnouts who do all kinds of drugs say when they take a hit once in a while, I immediately wanted to draw and paint (WHG genes) and do creative stuff.
only time I tried weed all that happened is I became paranoid and delusional
>brain damage
This is false
>memory loss
This is true, though you will recover your memory after a month or so of abstinence. It's a direct effect of accumulated cannabinoids, not a result of toxic damage like alcohol causes
>unable to do math/logic
Varies from person to person. In my experience it trashes my mathematical ability but my logical reasoning stays intact.
>makes life 3x more fun
Yeah pretty much lol. I haven't gotten high in months now though
3x0=0
everybody who smokes a lot of weed wishes they had never started smoking weed
>i should have never started with this shit
i think youre mistaking weed for coke. Everyone that smokes weed eventually just stops because their dealers all get arrested or they just dont have time to do it anymore
It's more like the intelligent people who benefit wont go around saying it is a magic cure. I know it works for me, but I also know it could frick some other person.
yep. i ruminate frequently on how much better life could have been had I not been a degen pot smoker.
t. weedgay that just quit because it was ruining my life
I literally don't understand people like will smif. I have a friend whose gf cheated on him and he places all of the blame on the other guy.

Hey liberals... u mad liberals?
i don't give a frick, cigarettes and vodka are my thing, life sucks and I'm gonna die drunk
The second I smoke weed all my psychic wounds are reopened. If I distract myself with YouTube quickly I can fall asleep. Otherwise it's hell, just replaying a lifetime of cringe
Same senpai
some people shouldn't smoke weed at all. Its really not for everyone
lmao, reminds me of high school. I want to smoke weed now
Okay but have you ever felt the calming sensation of working out, taking a shower, smoking a joint, jerking off and falling asleep on fresh sheets?
just finished math study while stoned. Got 90% on practice test. maybe you just suck!
There is nothing wrong with weed. But the amount of dumb fricks that smoke weed somehow makes people think these people would be smarter without it, which is ironically even dumber than the dumb fricks who smoke it
All I know is I spent $7200 a year smoking dank weed and now I get to keep that $7200.
>spending $600 a month on weed
How much were you frickin smokin dude? I literally spend $500 to cover me for like 8 months
How the frick did you even spend that much? I don't think I've spent that much on weed in ten years, collectively.
Nta, but I usually spend about 300/mo on weed. It's tax free in my state, but somewhere like Illinois, that $200 would only buy you a cart and some edibles.
>$300/mo
How? A decent ounce by me is ~$120. That lasts me like 3 or 4 months, if not more. Are you seriously smoking multiple ounces a month?
I spend like $75/week on it, trying out new carts and concentrates. I could literally just do Uber for an afternoon and get that, but I make really good money at my job
weed makes me feel kinda nice
weed didn't make my life more fun, it made jerking off and playing games for 6 hours straight more fun while my life around that was the same if not worse
Facts. Same experience with me
big facts.
Weed is fun for around 10 times, then go straight to addiction territory.
Memory loss is very real, specially if you are around 15 yo give or take a couple years... Say byebye to your adolescence memories
Also the fact you smoke it. It is inhaled smoke. In time it will scar your lungs and they lose elasticity. Do it long enough and you will start to feel all kinds of weird sharp pains
And these days are so much fake cannabinoids sprayed over week weed that it is very dangerous
Weed is the most overrated drug on the planet.
weed is funny
Does alcohol make you dumb too ?
alcohol is a lot worse than weed. alcohol is a neurotoxin, carcinogen, whatever else, weed isnt
look at this thread, the memes are true, just mention that weed is addictive or unhealthy and weed addicts instantly reply with 20 paragraphs about how they are not addicted etc
Most people can stop whenever, it's called a tolerance break. There's just no incentive to quit. I don't need to prove anything to a bunch of no-fun Puritans
And the cope continues
Is it cope that they can stop or is it cope that you wouldn't be able to if you started
>can stop whenever
>called a tolerance break
>break
so you aren't actually quitting.
is there a reason people should quit weed tho? Unless the person is a loser that can barely afford weed, i dont see much of a problem
It makes you dumber, triggers schizophrenia, and ruins your sleep. Also you'll probably binge on junk food.
With or without weed, if you dumb you dumb. Don't give people credit that they would be smart without it.
Well obviously if it triggers schizo dont use it, what a dumb argument.
Again, dont blame weed for your bad sleep schedule. Most people have terrible sleep even without weed. And if you a fatty, you are a fatty.
Holy frick, these are some of the laziest reasons to give. Why don't you try to keep people accountable for their dumbass decisions rather than trying to blame weed for all of it
Bro, don't bother with them. Weed is more popular than ever and the overwhelming majority wants it legal.
Let these wetblankets sulk in their pity and go hit a dab.
>go hit a dab
What the frick does that even mean?
It's the act of taking THC which has been converted either into a smooth, buttery substance or a hard, brittle glass like substance, breaking off a little, and smoking that in a device called an oil rig. This device superheats the THC concentrates and turns it into smoke which is the inhaled. This method removes a lot of the carbon and tar that comes with smoking flower, while also giving a more intense high.
If weed helped us do this, then it's a net positive. I'm glad I don't eat a lot of bullshit anymore. I feel better overall.
dabs will absolutely frick your world up, hallucinogenic "I think I need to just lay on the floor for a few hours" tier
Bullshit thing is no one considers themselves an alcoholic unless he is washing down his breakfast with Whisky at six in the morning. Pot heads are insufferable but so are beer bros and "sophisticated" wine addicts.

>>but makes life 3x more fun
Anon the only difference between my being stoned or not is the 3x more fun.
I already have ADD, I already have had multiple concussions, I already have ptsd and hyperarousal.

>Live the next half hour in Dyonesian revelry then go about your life
The chad option.
I hate that stoner culture celebrates the munchies, and encourages it. I also hate that stoner culture encourages you to be sedentary (“hey let’s get high and watch stuff/play video games”). These two things combined make you fat.
Nice trips. Yeah mainstream stoner culture sucks balls. I can't stand stoner types who fall into that category.
Yesterday after doing about four hours of yardwork and home maintenance I smoked a bong. It's far better to get high after accomplishing things because for me it's like a reward for getting my tasks done.
If you smoke weed, you should aspire to break the stoner stereotype with everything you do.
300 a month is quite a lot. I think I spend that much for myself and my wife for a month, maybe.
Trips of truth. Weed is awesome when doing active stuff because it enhances the brain to muscle pathway. Going on a run or working out while sauced after a blunt is super nice cause you can feel every muscle firing and it makes the sting more enjoyable. Broke off contact with a lot of my stoner friends after they started hitting it all day every day and turned into melted couch blobs that played vidya constantly.
Just like literally everything else in life, it can be beneficial to a point as long as you exercise discipline and self control.
The frick are you expecting people to do, fast and jog while high?
nta, but that's literally exactly what I do, yeah.
Not that anon but I don't get the munchies anymore. Haven't in over a decade. I have zero problem smoking and not eating for several hours afterwards. Unsure if this is normal but at least I'm not gaining weight from excessive snacking.
That's my experience too. Weed got me to give up junk food.
Yes.
If you can’t you’re ngmi and don’t deserve to puff from the champions plant.
doing any form of cardio while high is amazing
I hop on the rower myself.
I dunno. Weed mellows me up and helps me with my back pain. It makes me lazy as frick tho. So I use only when I finnish all my work and can afford being lazy for a while
I smoke weed everyday.
I don’t function normally without it.
When I was on probation I couldn’t smoke and I was flipping burgers.
I’ve been back on the pot for a few years now. I’m in sales, making a decent living, working out 4-6 times a week, getting big.
Turns out depression and anxiety nerfed me WAY more than weed ever could begin to.
If I get super stoned I’m slower ( that’s the point,) but i usually just hit a bong or vape some live resin and go about my business.
If I do it right it makes me more conversational, and empathetic, which can directly equal money in my field.
I don’t really hide it much either. My boss and a lot of my clients smoke.
I also live in the Florida panhandle. EVERYONE smokes, and if they don’t they still support it.
What area of sales, bro?
I have fun on weed like 1/5th of the time. I usually just feel anxious. It’s a shit drug
It might be the type of weed you're smoking. Strains heavy on sativa produce an energetic feeling that I can definitely see someone having anxiety on. Maybe try a strain that's indica heavy.
Then again, weed might not be for you. Which is fine.
It's weird isn't it? I got stoned out of my mind once and ate two pounds of various berries. But if I have a soda while high my mouth feels slick and slimy, really unpleasant. Don't know how that works but I like it.
When I first started, I was still a fatty, but now I'm in the same boat. I can barely finish a cookie or even get halfway through a soda. I think we just conditioned ourselves like that
Way better than alcohol but I would treat the drug with respect. Also only consume good plants from a grower who keeps it organic... all the doped up shit mutants won't be good no matter how small the amount.
You have fun in the moment but remember nothing. I’ve been to 100+ metal, punk, and hardcore shows and I only remember like three of them. If I could take it all back and keep the memories of my youth I would have
personally i believe that weed doesn't make you lazy etc. it just shows if you are lazy or can be productive. its just being a fricking moron problem. I used to smoke weed to see if i could fight my laziness in stone age mood and i cleant my whole room. It's possible, but you need WILL and be capable of doing "impossible things" in down-state, without it you will be Black person iq tier stoner.
I literally did all my physics research stoned in grad school, frick you talking about, homie?
My state legalized a few years back, so I decided to grow 2 seeds in the back yard, in ground. I wound up growing 2 pounds (dry) of some really good weed. My usage has always been occasional, every 4-7 months. If you think of weed as a "drug" like it'll cripple you, you're mistaken. It's literally a plant. Also you should look into dry herb vaping, it's awesome, decarbs the weed and can be sprinkled into food making anything an edible
>makes life 3x more meaningless
Gay sex is my weed
