Probably not. If I wanted to smoke it I'd be doing so right now.

IOU said:would you smoke it? or try it for the first time?

I have a question, and perhaps someone who partakes of the ocassional medicinal inhalation(s) can answer it:
Montana recognizes and legalized medicinal marijuana. As a work comp adjuster we sometimes see medical marijuana used for chronic back pain.
If it's true that marijuana causes "the munchies", and makes a person less likely to be active---how is sitting on the couch, eating Twinkies, Cheez Doodles and Ho-Hos, gaining weight and getting deconditioned going to be helpful to chronic low back pain????

That said, I don't necessarily have an issue w/ marijuana. I have yet to see someone who's used marijuana become violent (like w/ alcohol or other psychotropic drugs), and rarely drive faster than 20 MPH(again alcohol and other drugs). I think marijuana should be legalized and taxed just like cigarettes/tobacco and alcohol.

I've never smoked because it is illegal. I would try it if it was legal, just to see what the fuss is about.

 


I just screwed my presidential ambitions, didn't I?

I would upgrade to crack. It's just not as fun when you are allowed to do something.

No. Been there, done that, and I eventually realized that I don't like the myopic state it puts my brain in. It doesn't get me "high", it gets me "different", and it's really not all that exciting.

I think I originally tried it (at 15) looking for an enhanced state of mind, or a portal to something a bit more than mundane, day-to-day life. Maybe a mixture of that and a feeling that I belonged to a group that was getting away with something. For maybe seven years it was a big focus of my life. Scoring it. Smoking it. I hit about 23 and one day wondered why. Being unable to answer that question, and realizing that it had never really done anything for me bit make my brain slow down, my eyelids droop, and the corners of my mouth turn up in a dumb smile, I stopped.

Don't miss it. I like my mind better when it's uninhibited. I have nothing against it...pot is probably one of those things that's fine in moderation. I could never again be one of those people who've made it a lifestyle.

My mom use to have me go into the other room to smoke a joint between courses at her house so I would eat more. Nice Jewish mom

I've never tried it, and I don't know if I would even if it was legal. I don't even drink very much anymore - since I lost weight I became, quite literally a lightweight, and it just makes me sleepy/groggy, and I usually have too much stuff I want to get done to waste a night staggering around in a stupor.

That being said, if it was legal I would definitely look into some way of making money off it, either through production or distribution.

I am more likely to try it if it remained illegal.

Nope~ Not interested. I like my mind the way it functions au naturel!

If they weren't grandfathered in, tobacco and alcohol would never be legalized today. And for good reason.
