Jaggy, thanks for digging that info up. I knew I had seen that before somewhere....and the comment that second-hand smoke isn't harmful and can't cause cancer was so moronic I would've found fact to the contrary if you hadn't.

What REALLY pisses ME off is people like Sektor (nothing against ya personally, just your attitude) who adopt this "holier-than-thou" attitude against people. Like, "*I* don't smoke. *I* know it's bad for you. *You* smoke. *You're* a dumbass. *You* don't know anything. *You're* a weakling. *I* volunteer at hospitals. *I* see firsthand what will happen to you. Do as *I* say and as *I* do." That's all well and good, Sektor, but in my eyes, you're starting to sound like the stereotypical Jehova's Witness, with their in-your-face, never-accept-no type of "ministering". Lay off, because we all have our own lives to live, and I for one am not going to listen to you. Granted, I don't smoke anyways, but that's beside the point. I will do what I feel I should do, not what you think. ...blah blah blah....making TF's post shorter.... Look Sektor, I respect you and all, but I disagree with the way you are expressing yourself. Ultimately, we should all do what we feel is right, not what other people (namely you) feel is right. So.....why did you quote me if you have beef with Sektor? And Magicman, if you can't tell that I was being halfway sarcastic, maybe you should concentrate more on social skills instead of those "stupid, inane, moronic" commercials... You guys know what's really funny? Those anti-pot commercials! I think it's hilarious that the little kid gets left by the baseball field for hours...I know, I know, I'm a heartless monster, but it's still funny. That and when the swimmers can't participate because their gurl was smoking....ha ha, sucks to be in that group.....  |

Lay off, because we all have our own lives to live, and I for one am not going to listen to you. Granted, I don't smoke anyways, but that's beside the point. I will do what I feel I should do, not what you think. Almost the entirety of my dad's side of the family smokes. I've seen how cancer eats them up, how they're too weak to move, how they have lung problems so bad they can't even walk to the bathroom. Most of them knew the risks (I say most because they didn't actively campaign against smoking in the fifties), some didn't. Do they regret it? You ask them. Some will say yes, some will say hell no. Look Sektor, I respect you and all, but I disagree with the way you are expressing yourself. Ultimately, we should all do what we feel is right, not what other people (namely you) feel is right.
Back in 9th grade, I went after school with an ex-friend and we went downtown. Some of his friends aren't really the greatest of people so they were smoking. They offered him one and he agreed. Me? I asked them why they're smoking and called them dumbasses. NONE of them could give me a good explanation as to what good they got out of smoking. (Creed, it's Charlie) |

So.....why did you quote me if you have beef with Sektor? And Magicman, if you can't tell that I was being halfway sarcastic, maybe you should concentrate more on social skills instead of those "stupid, inane, moronic" commercials... I quoted you because your post was a fine catalyst for mine. And when did I ever refer to your post, besides quoting you? When did I ever say that? Never, that's when. I'm saying you adopt a holier than thou attitude. You *do* know what that is, right? It is different than me calling you Jesus. What? I never said they were better than you, but what makes you think you're better than them? If I could figure out what this means, I'd reply to it. Oh, here's something interesting I heard on NPR today. If trends continue, obesity will soon overtake smoking as the leading cause of death in the US. And no, that wasn't disagreeing with what you were saying, just pointing something out. |

Brodie, you know how idiotic you sound after saying something like that? You know how much time it probably takes to Google that and copy and paste? 5-7 min tops....just because you were proven wrong doesn't mean you have to lash out and get all pissed. Yes, because they found that info means they have no life. This coming from someone who is a self admitted habitual pot smoker.....who needs to get a life again now???

I admit I do smoke pot occasionally (and VERY occasionally...last time was 6 months ago), but I never smoke cigarettes. I have to say that I agree with most of what sektor is saying, smoking ciggarettes is pretty stupid, but I can also see why magicman was offended by what you said. And as for Brodie...well let me just say that because of people like you it's not hard to see why people frown upon pot dispite it not causing any actual problems. (I say actual because most the things you hear about in health is made up...The Lancet did a study showing that pot only causes problems in pregnancy, and it's probable that it lowers the immune system in heavy pot smokers...which I'm not.) I hope I didn't offend anyone in this post, I'm just speaking my mind  |

If you don't give a shit about what people here think, or you think we need to get lives cuz we made you look bad by proving you wrong on a message board ...maybe you need to put down the blunt for a minute and use some fucking logic. You're here just like us, are you not? You're posting here, are you not? Hopefully, there must have been some reason you came to particular message board as opposed to another. Cuz it's easy to act like an ass most message boards. It's nice you don't care what I think. I don't care what a 14 year old punk has thinks of me. Tell me to care when you join the real world, kid. |

You wrote: Ultimately, we should all do what we feel is right, not what other people (namely you [aka me]) feel is right.
You got that from me saying that I think people who smoke are stupid? So I assumed you ment smoking. I see no indication of it meaning something else, unless you went WAY out of topic.
You said: I'm saying you adopt a holier than thou attitude. You *do* know what that is, right? It is different than me calling you Jesus.
How do I adopt a profit-like attitude? Stop making wild assumptions from a single friggen sentence. All I said was that people who smoke are stupid.
I said: I said that smoking = stupid so what makes people who smoke any better?
What I ment was that since smoking is stupid, people who smoke are also stupid.
I said: Yup, I'm just preaching to the world the way of good by saying that. Wow, you sure have some problems.
You said: If I could figure out what this means, I'd reply to it.
You said I tell people what to do and expect them to do it. My response is called "satire"
How old are you? You dont seem to stay on topic, you're making wild assumptions, and you don't understand half the things I say

I really must have no life because I spent about 2-3 mins looking up some information on google. Just because you were proven wrong, you start bitching and say I have no life? Get a grip. I find it highly ironic how some kid who's a smoker is telling me to get a life. |

PEOPLE PEOPLE PEOPLE!!!!!
Why are we getting so worked up about this? You DO know that you're NOT supposed to drink the bong water, right? Just take some downers and chill......You people sound so mad....it makes me laugh...Oh, and if anybody wants to know, yes, there are keg parties out in the desert where I live...but that's unrelated.
Speaking of smoking: I saw some kid get arrested last year for smoking cigarettes. It was right across the street from my school. Some people are so stupid, the light up when they're not even near the other side of the road where it's legal to smoke (if you're 18...)
