It takes away the money that could go towards GAMES! That's why I stay away from the stuff (and cigarettes... hoo boy, THAT'S an expensive "hobby") and also why I rarely drink...Quote:

Please elaborate how casually getting high is beneficial.Quote:

It lets people who have no right to be there be a part of the cool crowd. It also expands your mind, thus giving you the perspective to write long, shitty reviews of video games.Quote:

How is it not? Whats the difference. Its a preference. I have had the same stash for one month, only about 2 grams. When i feel like smoking it, I will. Maybe today when i get home from work, maybe next month on a Saturday night. Its not a big dal if you dont make it one.Quote:

I rather be a quiet and sensitive stoner when i get home than a beligerent drunk who beats up his girlfriend.
As far as the benefits of casually smoking, some of my best insights on life and my artwork have come when i was high, some when sober. Sometimes when i get high i am a creative genius (i have a mini Pro Tools Studio in my room), sometimes i sit there and watch TV or worse, play games (getting high actually makese me realize how lame modern video games are).
Do you get my point?
=)
Does it really matter if someone thinks any behavior is bad?
I don't mind what people think of me, if it works for me, then it's good.
I do think that pot should be legalized, but that would not cause me to smoke it anymore than I do right now.
You can still smoke once in a while and not have to pay for it. I've never had to actually buy pot in my life. I just smoke it when it's there and people are sharing.Quote:

Pay for your pot dammit! :lol:
It's a built-in way to keep the habit in check. If people don't want me to pay for it, I'm probably not smoking that much ;)Quote:

I've met plenty like that, doesn't change that once they get high they also get stupid. There are plenty of my friends that I don't hang out with if they're getting drunk or high because it's not fun to be around if you prefer your thoughts untainted. Although I've seen both alcohol and weed get fat chicks laid, so I can where the appeal for them comes from...Quote:

Yeah, because I've been known to snicker and giggle for minutes on end at nothing at all while playing videogames. And I've come to plenty of deep, insightful thoughts about the stupidest shit possible while ripping through pixellated creatures on-screen.Quote:

Ahhh........the redundacy of these statements coming from a VIDEO GAME MESSAGE BOARD ADMIN...you could plug in "plays video games" for "smokes pot" and have exactly the same results. Gimme a break.
Funny... I've never noticed people get dumber as they sit there and play guitar. Maybe I'm watching the wrong people.Quote:
What about the pot smokers who make love while high, paint, play guitar, etc...the problem lies with the individual not the substance, they would do the same things if they didnt smoke weed.
However, I will say this: Pot smokers are about to become a great money-making opportunity for me. I love how I'm about to screw over a bunch of them out of cash, and they don't care. Beautiful.
:lol: That's actually a good system... I will now applaud your ingenuity!Quote:
