Seems like there's gotta be at least one guy here who knows about marijuana.

Anyone mind helping me answer some questions?

What are the addictive properties of marijuana (physically, psychologically, or both?)
What is the damage to body (including the brain) caused by marijuana?
What are some illnesses caused/intensified by use of marijuana?

Hooray for online health.

Don't listen to what any stoner tells you about weed.

You can get addicted, but it isn't just one or two shot easy, more mentally than physically.

It pretty much kills brain cells every time, and stops neurons from extending while using it. Ontop of that, it stays in your body for about 40-50 days, so if you take a drugtest in that time you're fucked up because it's easily detectable.

Plus you'll smell like shit.

Weed only stays in your body for a day or two if you don't smoke it regularly. It does stay in your hair follicles for a longer time. Smoking seeds and stuff can lead to alzheimer's. Plus, it makes you think that Phish is a good band, and that Dane Cook is funny.

He obviously didn't read the rest of the post he quoted you from.

MJ is like video games. Video games aren't physically addicting. It's the person who's using it that makes up whether it is or not. So YES, MJ is addicting for some people, but no it's not chemically addictive.

What are the addictive properties of marijuana (physically, psychologically, or both?) Hardly any. Marijuana is nothing like cigarettes or even as addictive as alcohol, and alcohol isn't very addictive.

What is the damage to body (including the brain) caused by marijuana? It destroys a few brain cells, but then so does alcohol. It is said that marijuana has more cancer-causing chemicals than cigarettes, but that's a lie the school text books tell you because they don't want you to smoke weed. And even if it was true, you don't smoke marijuana all the time. It's an occasional thing.

What are some illnesses caused/intensified by use of marijuana? None, unless you smoke enough of it to get cancer, but you probably won't be able to afford enough weed to do that to you.

Weed's also really good for physical pain.

FYI, I don't smoke weed. Haven't even tried it before. But there's this girl I know who does and I ask her questions about it all the time. I'm no expert of course. You can find all kinds of information about weed on the internet as well, although a lot of it is probably biased, especially if it comes from people who are against it.

Animefan, you're the bigger idiot. You're talking as if you actually know the subject. >_> Instead, you're just spouting what your "girl" friend may have said.

I'm basically done with the project, but even I know a lot of that is dumb.

You make it sound like drinking tons of alcohol is better than smoking tons of marijuana (I don't really know, but either ain't good, I know that >_> )

Is this a rule for smoking marijuana?

Dying also happens to eliminate all physical pain, too.

Oh yeah, information not from people who do research but instead from people who take the drugs and enjoy them will probably be biased, too.

Actually, we were more like making fun of his friend and his naivety. Unless his friend is him.

-No, I was saying that smoking lots of marijuana is not as bad for the brain as drinking alcohol.
-Yes, it is a general rule that you don't smoke lots and lots of weed. Some people do but the casual users who have a desire to avoid addiction don't.
-What on earth does death have to do with weed's effects of eliminating pain? That's like saying  Are you saying that smoking weed will kill you? Dude, you have to smoke a fucking TON of weed to die from it, and weed isn't one of those things that can kill you in one sitting.
-Information from this particular friend isn't biased. I know her too well, and bias is above her.

I honestly don't care if you agree with me or not, or even if you flame me or not. I was just offering my help/2 cents and if you don't want it, that's fine by me.

I don't think this is an issue that everyone is going to agree on at all. People's view on this subject are different for every person. Plus, it's hard to say if it is even worth bring up. Look, guys, the jest of it is all drug can be differently and effectively. If people over use drugs, it gets them high. If marry jane gets you to sleep at night (ala moi), then I think that it is used effectively. Now, like animefuck, just lay down quotes from some stoner chick, it's pretty bullshit dude. Try it yourself. Sure, do research, but from both negative and positive points. If you haven't done it, I don't think its an issue for to not to discuss it because you haven't even bothered to try it. Going on a damn website, isn't going to let you experience Marijuana, doing it will. Because I'll tell you something, you can't die yet and you should try everything at least once.

But honestly, isn't it entertaining that the only bad thing some people can find to say about weed any more is that it's a gateway drug?

Anybody who is a lazy waste of space stoner was a lazy waste of space before they began smoking, or would have become a lazy waste of space no matter what substance they eventually chose.

I find it surprising that most "emos" prefer to be straightedge, while retaining the whole "you don't understand me nobody understands me" mindset that stoners adapt.
