I read everything, and I understand your reasoning, but you honestly are leading people into a trap. Really not smart.
Also consdering many people in tl are under 18, this is even worse.
Granted, if i was older, i wouldn't mind trying it once. but only once. no more. Different countries different laws, some ban alcohol and some legalize weed. If it was any moral issue to anyone you could just close the tab, so long as all the cannibus related things stay in their proper thread. High Thread Also, someone mentioned cons for vaping, in the post i made, i ment i wanna hear con's for vaping because i swear alot of the people i know just down right hate it.

Negative Effects: Can lead to flunking of drug tests that some businesses use prior to employment consideration. See Legality of Cannabis by Country.
Not that I really think a casual reader of this forum would be in the dark about the legality of cannabis in, say, the United States, but it does appear that the beneficial effects outweigh the negative effects from your post. Yet you are (assuming USA) de-facto engaged in criminal activity if you are not using it for medicinal purposes (or engaged in a dangerous habit if you aren't using for medicinal purposes AND in a state where it is decriminalized).
Eh deserves mention. Wish I could assume people reading the forum would know about the legal risks of using cannibis in countries where it is nominally illegal. Not even casual mention in OP though =(. Let me add that I choose to take caffeine and alcohol in legal fashion, but do not use cannibis for employment considerations (Do business with Fed Gov't and must be tested annually) and the risk of arrest/record. Just hope nobody here is uninformed as to other non-medical risks to using the drug.

Ah, I'm the type of person who'd love to at least try it sometime, but has no idea how to get any because I don't hang out in that sort of crowd.
Good 5k.

You've never answered your door and met a sort of zoned out pizza guy? =P

I smoke a ton, as you well know already orbycakes.
To anyone who complain about it, we realize it isn't for anyone. ANY drug effects people in different ways. We aren't all like those shady motherfuckers who will pressure you into trying ALL SORTS OF DRUGS!!111, like DARE would have you believe. Ganja can bring up things from your inner psyche that you would rather keep buried down. If even after quitting, you guys are still experience social anxiety or other issues... I'd highly recommend seeing a shrink, cause you could have something else going on in your head that the herb brought out.
I stress safe usage. Don't be stupid, get up to a [10] and start driving. That's just a terrible idea, and gives the rest of us a bad name. Use it after you're done with all sorts of work / obligations. After all, you wouldn't show up to work drunk... would you? (If you do, I apologize and power to you).
Also if you guys decide to try this or ANY other drug. www.erowid.org. Research it using that site. Don't trust lies from the government, and don't trust people on random pro-drug forums. Know your body, know your dosage, and have someone watching you the first few times you try psychs. If anyone wants to know my experiences with psychs, PM me or something, I'd be happy to share.
As for the negative effects on the lungs, the data is inconclusive. Both camps have research and studies with contrasting results. The general rule of thumb is that if you want to save your lungs, either vaporize or eat it. but now that I think about it... michael fucking phelps. bong rips and still got gold medals. I imagine if it messed your lungs too badly, he wouldn't be able to do it :p. Joints + blunts = most tar of any smoking method, I think. Blunts even more so because of the tobacco wrapper.
Also @ the guy who said he "doesn't hang with that crowd". Honestly dude, you'd be surprised who smokes. Plenty of people, from doctors to med students, to lawyers (lolol) to that kid bagging groceries.

I think a lot of tl staff wouldn't condone this type of post.

Outdoor activities -- Things like riding a bike, going canoeing on a lake, or going hiking can be great fun when high. There's something about cannabis that really makes you appreciate nature in all its glory, so I definitely recommend trying your favorite outdoor activity while under the influence.
Going hiking while zooted can be amazing I can vouch for this. Me and a friend recently tried it and we wound up running through the forest chasing squirrells or something and it ended with us being 5 miles out of the way in the middle of the forest and my friend having to climb a tree to get enough cell reception to power the compass in my iPhone.
Anyways you should add long time respiratory issues to your con's list because its definately a concern. Smoke is still smoke and will still fuck up your lungs. Not nearly as bad/as fast as tobacco, but my Uncle was a long term ent and wound up needing inhalers later in life because of it.

while i don't exactly condone what this post suggesting...
i did find the chemistry interesting and the "inhalation" part.

ahahahahahahahaha
kudos to you orb keep on smoking the good stuff

Orb, I muted the ESV Korean weekly to listen to Katy Perry instead

lmao
nice 5k post
you seem to enjoy your weed
oh hey for the complainers ill balance some of this shit out
1.) weed is bad for your lungs 2.) weed can make you care less about shit you might want to care about 3.) weed costs money 4.) weed can make you paranoid/dumb if u get rly high
.........yeah there arent really many negative side effects so complaining is kinda dumb
|
Oh by the way, you could add a section about using a vaporizer to smoke weed.
It tastes better, doesn't hurt lungs/throat, and gives a stronger high / require less doses because no THC is burnt like in the other methods.

Mmm the first spoilered pictures. Delicious. 5/5 on that alone. Rest was good too but those pictures just mmm.
|
LOL you really plugged this on your professional ESVTV Stream? :X
