ya!! puff puff give!
Blunts are good bongs are better!
Cypress Hill - Hits From The Bong Lyrics
Hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Pick it, pack it,
Fire it up, Come along,
And take a hit from the bong,
Put the blunt down just for a second,
Don't get me wrong it's not a new method,
Inhale, Exhale,
Just got a ounce in the mail,
I like a blunt or a big fat bowl,
But my double barrel bong is gettin' me stoned,
I'm skill it, There's water inside don't spill it,
It smells like shit on the carpet,
Still it, goes down smooth when I get a clean hit,
Of the skunky funky smelly green shit,
Sing my song, puff all night long,
As I take Hits from the bong...
Hits from the bong y'all
Gonna get high,
Hits from the bong
Gonna get high,
Hits from the bong
Gonna get high,
Hits from the bong
Let's smoke that bowl, hit the bong,
And then take that finger off of that hole,
Plug it, unplug it,
Don't straaaain, I love you Mary Jane,
She never complains, when I hit Mary,
With that flame, I light up the cherry,
She's so good to me, when I pack a fresh bowl I clean the screen,
Don't get me stirred up the smoke, through the bub-bling water,
Is Makin' it pure so I got ta', take my hit and hold it,
Just like Chong, I hit the bowl and I reload it,
Get my four-footer and bring it on...
As I take Hits from the bong,
Hits from the bong
Gonna get high
Hits from the bong
Gonna get high
Hits from the bong
Gonna get high
Hits from the bong
Gonna get high
Hits from the bong...
Gonna get high
Straighten your dick out...
Gonna get high...

Actually the st0neface is a nickname I got from friends since The Thing from Fantastic Four's name is Ben, and so is mine, and we watched an episode where the human torch called him stoneface, and they never stopped calling me that. It's stuck after almost 2 years now.

Yes, and you stating that it's opinion doesn't do anything to disprove it or even call it in to question. While it being opinion does present a bias, it doesn't prove that that particular bias is irrational or unfounded. Saying something is opinion isn't the swiss army knife of agrument defeat that so many think it is.
I do it sometimes and I find nothing wrong with it...its fun and makes things in life all the more enjoyable
That's really pathetic. When someone has that feeling about alcohol, they are technically an alcoholic.
...it doesnt control my life but I enjoy it
It doesn't control your life yet you feel compelled to post about how great it is. Right.
...And 420 means nothing...It was made up by a couple dumbass's that thought the cop code for smoking pot was 420 and they spread the word...Then they found out it wasnt and it was too late
Well, they're all potheads, what did you expect?

I did it once, I succumbed to peer pressure, and regretted it ever since, so I do have room to speak. It is addictive, no pothead ever thinks they're addictive, but if it was taken away from you permanantly, you would feel withdrawals, and you know it. Drinking to excess is bad and for losers also. Those who have a drink once in a while a just fine, but those who drink to get drunk are losers. Caffiene shouldn't be illegal, except in the case of hyperactive teenagers *looks in deadzones direction*. Oh, and people who get high to escape life are cowards, theres no other way to put it.

Umm...alcohol is legal...last time I checked pot wasnt...Something wrong with that picture...
Not really. Alcohol has strict guidelines for it's manufacture, distribution and use. On top of that, Alcoholics are mean, even after they dry out... that's why alcohol prohibition didn't work and marijuana prohibition does.
Plus, you have the Irish backing alcohol and the Dutch backing marijuna.. which would you rather have... a pissed off Irishman or mellow Dutchman fighting on your side?
Do you think drinking is bad?
Nope. Of course, I'm not running out to buy moonshine from the nearest still either.
is it for losers?
Nope, but they still seem to use it anyway.
I dont really think you do...When more deaths are reported because of drinking and not pot,
Right. I'd love to see the percentages on that. How can you compare the BILLIONS of people using alcohol to the small number of pot users? Of course there will be less deaths from marijuana.
and when those commercials come on about pot...someone can have pot in their system for UP TO FOUR WEEKS...So doing a drug test would only say that they had smoked in the past month...
Well, it's illegal, and the only time you're really compelled to take a drug test is when you want to compete in atheletics or want to get a job... in which case you are bound to the wants of your employer anyway.... why hire a drug user (along with all the issues that come along with them) when you can hire a non-drug user?
Im not a pothead and it isnt sad...Have you ever smoked?...Have you ever been high? Then you have no right to an opinion!
I've never killed myself. Does that mean I have no right to say that suicide is bad?
If you dont speak from experiance then you DONT KNOW
Scientific evidence is always more highly prized than anecdotal evidence. Of course a pothead is going to say that "if you've never tried it you don't know". Science has shown us how Marijuana alters brain chemistry... most other drugs that alter brain chemestry are carefully limited and not offered without perscription.
...just cuz a book or the paper tells you its bad and what to think doesnt mean it is...
A drug with no standards for quality, no guarentee it won't be spiked with insecticides, crack, or other harder drug (you are dealling with a criminal element to get it... they aren't exactly the most reputable people).
How in the world could that every be dangerous?
Pot has no addictive traits what so ever...
I'd love to see facts on that. Even the motions and practices associated with smoking help to feed into the addiction... I doubt the mannerisms related to marijuana are any less habit forming.
It is not an adictive drug...
I doubt it. Altering the brain chemistry and not causing addictive effects? That's highly dubious.
Potheads smoke pot either:
a) because family situations or life situations cause them to need an escape
1: They are pussies and whiners and can't deal with life.
b) they just enjoy it
Can't argue that.
or c) they have a medical condition
Having a medical condition and using a drug with no dosage limits and no saftey standards. That's brilliant. You're sure marijuana doesn't effect intelligence?
...No one smokes because they did it for a bit and got addicted.
Stating things as fact is very dangerous. I woudn't doubt that you could find a group of people that say marijuana is addictive or a doctor doing research into whether or not THC is addictive.
Alcohol is just as deadly and should be illegal if pot is
I doubt it. Alcohol is very closely watched and has strict standards.
Large corporations make billions of dollars off of alcohol. No politician in thier right mind would go after them. Of course, since not one of any real consiquence backs marijuana, it's easy prey.
...and caffiene should be illegal...your prolly gunna think im crazy for the last thing I said but its true...if caffiene wasnt around people would be much happier...
Caffine levels are also strictly limited and governed... marijuana doesn't have that going for it, and since no one with any real power will back it up, it probably never will.

I guess it's just me but I think your a loser if everytime you drink you have to get drunk, just like everytime you smoke pot you have to get high. Pot only stays in your system if you are a chronic user, if you only tried it once and have to do a drug test in 2 days your fine. That's one of the points of the test, if you are a pothead and smoke everyday then there's no way you can get it out of your system intime for the test. What kind of argument is "if you haven't done it you can't say it's wrong" I guess
I can't tell zforce317 stabbing old ladies in the park might not be such a good thing. Pot is an incredibly addictive drug, but of course you have to be an addict to get addicited to something, some people aren't addicts and can do it for a while and be fine if they never did it again, but if you are an addict and stop you will get profoundly depressed and sometime suicidal. I won't even comment on the caffine, if you're gonna use the arguement that alcohol kills more people then pot so it should be illegal, then caffine kills more people than pot too?

You're not exactly an eloquent debator either.
Medicinal Marijuana is nothing but a red herring that the pro-pot lobby pushes. In what world does it make sense to have the delivery method of a drug be something that must be lit on fire to smoke, and in turn creates cancer causing carcinogens. Everything they the medicinal marijuana lobby says that medicinal marijuana does, there are prescription drugs that do the same thing, and is most cases better.
If people don't get addicted to marijuana, than wouldn't that mean that all marijuana users are potheads?
Well?

Allright, one more post. Maybe I am splitting hairs. But I would say there is a difference. Who drinks any alcohol not to alter their state of mind somewhat? Is everyone who has a drink an alcoholic? When you say drinking to make things better it sounds like a sad person trying to escape the pain of something. Drinking occasionally to make things all the more enjoyable sounds more like a typical person at a bar having a drink. Have a couple of beers, loosen up, go dancing...that sort of thing.

JSweeney is officially the most pathetic loser on CAG. JSweeney you have nothing better to do than arguing with people on this forum day in and day out? I mean it's pretty ridiculous how you make it your life's goal to prove yourself right EVERY time someone disagrees with you, which happens often because you sound like a closed-minded little bitch. Anyway, all you people who come here and say "Pot's bad!", "You druggies!" and have probably never even smoked it in the first place, you're all idiots like that JSweeney. We don't knock you for being alcoholics and what not, just because alcohol is legal everyone thinks it's OK. Yet alcohol DOES cause death, when pot only causes the munchies, but since you're all brainwashed by what the government tells you is OK and NOT OK, you're a bunch of dolts for not being able to think for yourselves and instead adopting others' opinions.
I have nothing against the herb, I have smoked my fare share when I was younger. I always hated when I was hanging out with some people and they would say its 4:20 am/pm lets smoke a bowl. It is dumb and always will be dumb. If you want to smoke, smoke why make a big deal about a # that has no meaning. Do you think murders walk around saying 187 represent.

This post is funny. Are you saying that when someone disagrees with you, you shouldn't defend you position? What JSweeny is doing seems like the logical thing. And when someone disagrees with me I DO try to prove myself right. Also, you don't have to have smoked pot to think its wrong. I may not have killed people or raped your mom, but that doesn't mean I can't think it's wrong. Lastly, I highly doubt that anyone who takes such a strong stance against marijuana would only be doing so because the government told them so. It seems much more likely that they ARE thinking for themselves.

Do you think murders walk around saying 187 represent.
Actually, I do recall hearing a few Snoop Dogg songs saying something along those lines. And he was at one point on trial for murder...
That being said, don't take drugs, and please don't kill people.
Ah...I was just thinking to myself "man, the CAG boards don't have enough recurring stupid flame topics filled with retards flailing their pasty, flabby internet arms at each other in a vain attempt to feel superior to someone they'll likely never meet. Why can't it be more like Gamefaqs there?" and then this topic came along and restored my faith in internet society.

[b]I do it sometimes and I find nothing wrong with it...its fun and makes things in life all the more enjoyable
That's really pathetic. When someone has that feeling about alcohol, they are technically an alcoholic.
Drinking alcohol sometimes and enjoying it doesnt make you "technincally an alcoholic" Heck, it makes you about average. You are really pathetic.
When you "drink to make things better" you are an alcoholic.
I should know.
Drinking to make things better is different than doing it "sometimes to make things all the more enjoyable." Im sorry if you have gone to far down the path of alcoholism, but that doesnt mean drinking = alcoholism. Say it can lead to it if you want, but ah whatever, no need to write any more, as Im sure it wont matter. Straight edge forever.
I'm not an alcoholic, but I have a few loved ones that were. And that was exactly why they drank.
I really don't see the difference between...Drinking to make things better is different than doing it "sometimes to make things all the more enjoyable
It seems like you are splitting hairs.
Allright, one more post. Maybe I am splitting hairs. But I would say there is a difference. Who drinks any alcohol not to alter their state of mind somewhat? Is everyone who has a drink an alcoholic? When you say drinking to make things better it sounds like a sad person trying to escape the pain of something. Drinking occasionally to make things all the more enjoyable sounds more like a typical person at a bar having a drink. Have a couple of beers, loosen up, go dancing...that sort of thing.
I can see your point. You meant having fun and drinking, not having fun by drinking or having fun drinking. You're not ingesting alcohol to alter your mood, but rather you are drinking alcohol because drink alcohol is enjoyable. That makes sense... I'm just so used to drawing a very fine line between where normal use and the beginings of alcoholism starts.
I do see your point. Drinking alcohol because it is enjoyable is much different than doing it to alter your mood. (Mood alteration being a side effect rather than an aim.)

I have nothing against the herb, I have smoked my fare share when I was younger. I always hated when I was hanging out with some people and they would say its 4:20 am/pm lets smoke a bowl. It is dumb and always will be dumb. If you want to smoke, smoke why make a big deal about a # that has no meaning. Do you think murders walk around saying 187 represent.
For real, do like Miami Subs: "We Bake All Day."
To those who do, word. Those who don't, word.
I can't believe the people who are so adamant about seeing weed smokers go down. Why? Have you ever tried it? Have you ever gone to college, lived in a dorm, been a fulltime student and also held a part time job? I really doubt it. You are either yuppies or grade school students who were lead to believe by DARE that the minute you smoke the herb, you're automatically addicted to heroin.

Would I consider myself a yuppie? Probably not. I don't live in an urban area. Of course, the colloquial use of it doesn't refer to the orginal designation that Yuppie stood for, but rather has just been extended to included the young raised in a situation of wealth and/or privilage. While the earlier years of my life, I would consider my family to be dyed in the wool blue collar, I would probably say that the last ten years of my life have been lived in what would be considered a condition of at least modest wealth, and I do have a proffesional job, so I guess I could be considered a yuppie.
That may explain it... I don't detest that other people do it, but rather that they just assume that it is right because, dammit, they think it is.

Scientific evidence is always more highly prized than anecdotal evidence. Of course a pothead is going to say that "if you've never tried it you don't know". Science has shown us how Marijuana alters brain chemistry... most other drugs that alter brain chemestry are carefully limited and not offered without perscription.
Everything you do alters your brain chemistry. Going to sleep, eating different foods, skydiving, speaking in front of a croud. this "alteration" argument doesn't hold much water as there are scientists on both sides who can argure the merits, and detriments of marijuana, neither camp able to offer up inarguable proof of either position.
Alcohol is very closely watched and has strict standards.
Large corporations make billions of dollars off of alcohol. No politician in thier right mind would go after them. Of course, since not one of any real consiquence backs marijuana, it's easy prey.
Sorry Sweeny, you don't remember your american history classes in HIGH school. Remember that prohibition thing about 80 years ago? Politicians will go after the politically expedient issue on the public's mind, irregardless of that industry's power or capital base. And it's only closely watched because it is closely TAXED. They didn't repeal prohibition because some irishmen got pissed. They did it because the cultural masses began to outnumber and out power the cultural elite. And large portions of our economy depended on it, especially the revenue being lost from being unable to tax an illegal substance. When the Government realizes it's impossible to control and they're overwhealmed by popular opinion, they'll quickly jump on the bandwagon to regulate and tax the hell out of marijuana.
I smoked in my younger days and harbor no ill will towards anyone elses choice to exercise their own freedom. What you put or don't put into your own body is really none none of my business. You guys all sound like diehard fanboys arguing about PS2 vs. Xbox.
. Alcohol has strict guidelines for it's manufacture, distribution and use. On top of that, Alcoholics are mean, even after they dry out... that's why alcohol prohibition didn't work and marijuana prohibition does.
Plus, you have the Irish backing alcohol and the Dutch backing marijuna.. which would you rather have... a pissed off Irishman or mellow Dutchman fighting on your side?

It would be, if I were arguing soley from anecdotal evidence. I can qoute to you ever source from which I've gotten this information. I can present the briefs which I have written documenting both sides of the issue, and what the compelling arguments for criminalization/ decriminalization are.
Just because one uses doesn't mean they are informed. I am informed.
Arguing the safety and efficacy of marijuana is a losing battle, because both sides can present medical documentation that say the exact opposite things, and more often then not the anti-marijuana side with eventually win out in that regard due to the fact that more of the renoun and highly regarded doctors will adhere to the more moderate opinions on marijuana.
If anyone is every going to make a go of any pro-marijuana contention, it will haved to be based almost soley on personal liberty issues and not on personal opinion, anecdotal evidence or scientific fact (due to the highly conflict reports both sides can present).
I wouldn't even care if people used marijuana, provided it were safe, government mandated, and adhered to strict quality standards. But don't try to sneak around the issue and present red herrings like medicinal use or the use of hemp.. very few of the backers of these ideas can seperate themselves from the bias of thier pro-legalization stance.

C'mon Sweeny, you really think it's because of so-called 'evidence', or do you think that most doctors just don't feel like being investigated by the DEA and FBI and possibly have their license revoked? Why do you think most doctors are so moderate to begin with, prozac?

Yes, I do. I also remember it being a resounding failure and also one of the major genesis points of orginized crime in the united states. There is no one that is that enamoured with marijuana that they would go through the trouble.
Politicians will go after the politically expedient issue on the public's mind, irregardless of that industry's power or capital base. And it's only closely watched because it is closely TAXED.

Yes, but to effect social change on such a scale, you'd need an active base of people who actually worked in the system. Politicians were bought, Bootleggers and bootlegger friendly politicians made it into political office, and set about change the issue from the inside. Marijuana users aren't doing that.. probably since the marijuana use community is so closely tied in to the counterculture and the hippies... most of them weren't smart enough to realize that they would have effected greater change if they worked within the system an not against it.

well, I have to agree with you there. Most pot smokers I know are to lazy and would rather just sit around an smoke more pot than actually work on the 'inside'. However, It's very difficult to act as an insider while advocating an illegal behavior. You run the risk of losing your freedom, your career, your life.
But you're wrong about bootleggers. Those that were on the inside and bought their way into political office wanted prohibition. It's what gave them their power, and their monopolies. Without the restriction of supply by law, the tremendous profit motive would be nonexistant.

What you do in your own house is your own business. If you try to go out and sell it, I want it tested for safety by the FDA.
Safe marijuana would come from safe marijuana plants (not laced, reasonable THC levels, etc). If there were some place people could get safe plants containing reasonable levels of THC, I'd have no problem with them cultivating it. Of course, I would expect the same harsh standards if someone was trying to sell it as Tobacco and Alcohol have placed on them.
It should ALWAYS and ONLY be regulated by the government?
They are the only ones with the clout and power to get it done. If there were another body capable of doing what the FDA does, I'd be happy to let them regulate it.
I think you have too much faith in the wrong place. The government doesn't give a rats ass about you personally, only what you can give to the treasury.
That's a rather negative viewpoint. Of course, if you don't give a rats ass about it and don't get involved, why should you expect that it give a rats ass about you?

Anyone that knows about this wonderful city knows as well that it's a party town. This being true because of the fact that the UGA campus is located towards downtown. Now, this is pretty much a hippy and frat boy town. You should see our downtown, it's one of the best ones you'll find, meaning bars and such. Most ppl here like the Almon Brothers, Widespread Panic, Grateful Dead, etc. Tie-dye shirts, long hair, and hemp necklaces are seen alot. But this is a very nice, cozy city. It has a great enviroment and such, I've lived three places in my life and this is definitely the best. My brother's best friend is pretty much a drug dealer, he has a higher person who gives him his weed, has grandparents that willingly give him the money he needs to buy the weed and sell it for a profit (obviously though, they don't know what he's using the money for). He's honestly one of the nicest ppl I have ever met in my life. And I know as a fact that he doesn't sell weed with dangerous THC levels. So there can be friendly dealers and such. Especially in a town like this where by 15, you've probably smoked weed before. And on another subject, who would you rather have as a friend, an alchoholic or a pothead? I'd take the second one. Alchoholics are mean and physicly addicted. While most potheads are mellow, nice and if addicted at all, mentally addicted, because you can't get physicly addicted to weed.

Eh, I wanted to avoid this thread but i can't resist.
a) there's no distinction between physical addiction and mental addiction in terms of "addictive potency". Cocaine is considdered to be one of the most addictive drugs in the world, yet it's really only psychologically addictive.
b) Most of my friends don't drink OR do drugs, so that kind of makes your question dumb. It's like asking "what would you rather have? A shotgun blast to the face or a knife in the arm". Sucks either way bucko.
c) Does anybody remember those commercials that say "you think everybody's doing it, but you're wrong", and it shows like 20 chairs, and they're all empty except for 1 kid smoking pot? I think that applies to your arguement here. You say most people've smoked pot by their 15th birthday, are you basing this on anything but your personal expereince? And considdering you hang around with drug dealers, maybe you see more druggies than most people? Another way of saying it is this. You see a million people driving perfectly fine everyday, but it's the 2 people who cut you off that you remember. If you have 3 people driving crazy, you might think "man everyone is driving crazy today", yet only 3 out of thousands were. Kinda sorta like that.

You guys should lay off sweeny. He's already said that it's okay if you grow your own, or make your own beer. He's just against selling it on the open market. So, in effect, he's advocating growing pot!!! Now you're in trouble sweeny, get ready, the DEA may be at your door!

drugs are the foundation for popular culture so I have no problem with them as long as you do not bring it into public.
Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, the Beatles, Pink Floyd, etc. in music
and think of all the actors that are the same way.

Does anybody really admire the hollywood community? They aren't exactly a bastion of morality. They get paid to play make-believe for a living.

Umm...alcohol is legal...last time I checked pot wasnt...Something wrong with that picture...Do you think drinking is bad? is it for losers? I dont really think you do...When more deaths are reported because of drinking and not pot, and when those commercials come on about pot...someone can have pot in their system for UP TO FOUR WEEKS...So doing a drug test would only say that they had smoked in the past month...Im not a pothead and it isnt sad...Have you ever smoked?...Have you ever been high? Then you have no right to an opinion! If you dont speak from experiance then you DONT KNOW...just cuz a book or the paper tells you its bad and what to think doesnt mean it is...Pot has no addictive traits what so ever...It is not an adictive drug...Potheads smoke pot either a) because family situations or life situations cause them to need an escape b) they just enjoy it or c) they have a medical condition...No one smokes because they did it for a bit and got addicted...Alcohol is just as deadly and should be illegal if pot is...and caffiene should be illegal...your prolly gunna think im crazy for the last thing I said but its true...if caffiene wasnt around people would be much happier...
It's quite obvious that all the marijuana you've been smoking has permenantly impaired your ability to spell the words of the English language properly.

Damn, first we find out there's a white supremacist in our community, then XB Master reveals he's an accomplice to drug dealing...
Anybody else wondering what could possibly be next?

they get paid for making great art, not for being the pique of morality. Most creative people are not the most moral people (for example Mozart)

to jsweeney,
honestly i was jus about to flame you for arguing with everyone, cause seeing you debating everyone through out the forums... but i ran into a thread where some kid is trying to justify his white supremicist mentallity, and i've jus had enough...
a friendly debate is really "friendly" compared to this kid explaining his reasons for hating ppl... kudos to jsweeney, scrubking, and WSB. who takes our minds away from this world of hatred and corouptness, away from ppl with real issues, where they can "hate" some1 for the music they listen to...
(sarcastic meter 0%) in case you cant tell.

Hey, if it makes them feel better to rally around calling me a self-rightious hypocrite, and burn effigies of me for thier own amusement, more power to them.
Thier words don't define me, if they make outright displays of hatred, it shows weakness in themselves or in thier character and not much else.
I'm not about hate... I'm about knowledge. True knowledge, that which is free of bias, can only be found through logical discourses, and most of the time these will be of an adversarial nature.. that is, arguments.
Most of my arguments, while many times full of opinion, will often be mostly bereft of emotion... any malice or ill will one finds within my words was likely placed thier by themselves, through a misinterpretation or bias they themselves hold.
