Waiting boy...
---------------------------------------------------------

well, first, boy doesnt apply.
boy is for people who do not know how to act like a man. IE, be responsible enough not to broadcast doing drugs as a normal occurance on a public forum where many under age viewers will certainly see it

.......boy.

second, i HAVE one of those 2 in 100 jobs now. and i earned it by studying my **** off in an acadamy where only 2 percent actually make it all the way through training from the initial office of personel management test. not by mixing stimulants with depresants, and pretending this is what every one does. did see alot of these types getting the "your not a looser" speach in the auditorium after the testing was over however, right before they were sent home WITHOUT a job.

here is a fact for you, drug users tend to hold lower paying jobs than non-drug users.

here is another fact for you, drug users see alot more jail time than non-drug users, employed or not.

here is something for you to think about, in a world where only the top 10 percent of your class stand any chance at all of landing one of those 2 in 100 jobs after graduation, drug users will be lucky to be 1 in 1000 of those top ten percent, and probably be 1 in 100,000 of those to actually land one of those 2 in 100 jobs.

life is hard. how stupid to you have to be to intentially make it harder by using mind altering drugs?

looser does apply.


News flash for ya:
EVERYBODY does drugs! Don't believe me? Go play in traffic for a while till you get run over and see what they pump into you through an I.V. (Not trying to say you should get hit by a car...just an example :) )

And there is a huge difference between a drug-user and a drug-addict. Everyone assumes that doing drugs is going to ruin your life or somehow turn an otherwise intelligent person into a ******* idiot. Used in moderation, drugs are a very valuable tool for self-discovery because they allow you to look at yourself from a 3rd person point of view.

The only thing that makes drugs so terrible is the fact that stupid people do them because they can't handle the things that are going on in thier life. It's the same with many other things...video games come to mind.

And yes I am a drug-user. I do drugs maybe 4 times a year, but I am still a user. Yet, I'm still able to hold a 3.5 GPA in college, still able to get jobs in Network Administration positions, and still able to put together a resume that has never failed to at least get me an interview.

Drugs don't make you a failure...you make yourself a failure.

What utter crap. I'll tell you what-- the next time you have an out-of-body experience, just keep heading towards the light. You'll save us a lot of trouble in the long run. How about this? A cheaper and more effective way to see yourself from a 3rd person POV, buy a video camera or a tri-fold mirror. Much more effective and stops infusing cash into criminal's hands.

A comment like this tells me how very misinformed you are about the subject. You don't see your own personality in a mirror. How ignorant would a person have to be to think that it was something special to see yourself just as you can by looking in the mirror. Sad that you assume the ignorance of others without looking first in the mirror before you.

Your stereotypes are ******* ********* and anyone that chooses to listen to such an ignorant, uninformed statement assuming that all drug-users are criminals would do just as well to join the KKK. Jesus, listening to stereotypes like that makes me remember all the BS that my grandparents tried to tell me about how the african-americans (they used a harsher word of course) were nothing but lazy pieces of **** that took jobs from the white people. Pure ******** plain and simple...

Speak with your brain instead of your mouth next time...

So in your drug addled state, you are able to have out of body experiences and still be thinking clearly enough to decipher the innermost secrets of your personality? Ok, even if you aren't looking down from the ceiling on yourself, but are just doing some chemically enhanced navel introspection, what makes you think that you are able to process anything coherent or valid that isn't the drug producing the "revelation of your soul?"

It is a contradictory set of states-- either you are sober and rational or you are high and are experiencing something which cannot be attained except by a drug which alters your reality.

Hey. Do all the drugs you want. Guys like you give me job security. But don't bullsh1t us with some hippy "I'm looking at myself with my Third Eye" crap, dipsh1t.

Totem, I am going to get you to post like that the next time I'm toked up, or drunk. It's almost as good as a tiedye shirt, or the Wall.

Ah well, thats a hollow thing to say really.. I've quit smoking pot, too much cash, plus most of my female friends as of late have been grossly against it. Kind of hard when you tell them to open the bedstand to politely ignore the bowl sitting there, along with the rolling papers.

being high on both a vicodin and an insane amount of pot as i type, im probably not the best person to be defending drug use. hehe

first off...

fact check:

Cannabis Sativa, pot, marjuana, whatever is a HALLUCINOGEN, not a depressant. pot isnt downing you like opiates or alcohol, its altering reality. pot actually SPEEDS UP your heart (although to a very slight degree. mixing caffiene of even large amounts in pot is not even remotely dangerous, or even stupid. both raise heart rate so little that it causes no damage or danger.

also... im really, REAAAAALLY high.

totem, until you've done a hallucinogen (be it pot or LSD) you cant describe the uses it has for altering your view on things. on a hallucinogen you do not neccesarily lose your control of concious "reasonable thought". my experience on LSA was amazing because even though i was experiencing changes in the way i thought, my thoughts were still lucid (to myself, and to my psychonaut co-pilot)

psychonaut - a traveler of the psyche and taking it into new worlds.

Well, I think this calls for a quote from my friend Ankor...

"Tell your PT you missed a heal because you were getting stoned, they'll understand."

In other words, Go ahead and smoke the herb if you know you aint going to be having some one depend on your sanity for the next
2-4 hours, otherwise,loco-grass is bad for you!

How very naive you are. I went to Cambridge University in the UK. One of the most difficult places to get a place at in the world. I would say about 80% of the people I knew there have tried drugs, and around 30% have taken them regularly. Everyone I know from Cambridge now have 6 figure salary's as Lawyers, Consultants, Bankers, Fund Managers etc etc. In other words, jobs that are well out of your league judging by your command of the English language. Many of these people still take drugs occasionally. Non are addicts. In fact, within very high powered city careers cocaine use is practically part of the culture.

So where do these facts fit in with your misinformed views?

Now I am not saying drugs are cool, they are dangerous, particularly for the very poor, depressed, and Angry Hippo. Obviously if one was to let taking drugs become habit forming, one would develop a problem. However the stuff you are spewing here you read in a leaflet.

While I'm certainly not anti-drug, I do want to say a couple things:

Hippo. Marijuana is both a mild hallucinogen *and* depressant. It is certainly not a stimulant.

Um. Someone using drugs in the privacy of their own home is certainly not something to be overly concerned about, nor condemn them for. And casual use isn't going to prevent someone from being sucessful in life. The problem is that most drug statistics are collected via rehab and emergency room statisics, which kinda includes an inherent bias towards those who abuse them. The biggest danger to the vast majority of drug users isn't the drugs themselves but the risk due to the illegality of the drugs.

Which is a shame...

What are you talking about? Are you mentally retarded? Taken a few too many punches to the head? Voting for a party does not require a person to adopt all of the beliefs of the leader of that party. Only a very very stupid person (you) would think it does.

Rather it simply means that on the issues that are important to you, you prefer the approach of one party over another.

Wow, Varus, you got some nerve criticizing someone for their lack of comprehension skills.

This is all bullshi[b][/b]t. There's a simple reason for smoking weed: it can be fun. And it's not even that dangerous. Smoking a little weed after work is going to affect your personality and job performance as much as having a few beers after work. True, some people can get caught up in it and waste their lives away on pot - but the same is true of alcohol. There really are no legitimate reasons left for one to be legal and the other one not.
