It Suck's Moose C***, i've been without for 5 months because my job started testing, i lived stoned for 10 years before that, it was wonderful, if i wasn't at work i was stoned. I miss it SO much. If i ever get laid off the first thing i'm doing is buy like 3 ounces and sit home get hi and watch scifi movies and t.v. shows, i almost wana get laid off. If i could chose i would give up drinking and go back to getting hi any day of the week. I once took a week off work, played Grand Theft Auto 3 and watched all 7 seasons of Star Trek DS9, while smoking like 14 joint's a day, one an hour while being awake. It was the Greatists week EVER!!!

yep, weed and productivity go hand in hand. :?
whatever floats your boat...

i've actually been thinking about this. Looking back at things and trying to see if it's holdin me back somehow. I'm 23, work full time, little college under my belt and not a lot in the bank at the moment and smoke daily. However, when i look back at my paychecks and the past couple years it doesn't really feel like the herb is holding me back a lot. I probably have bought a little more than i should have over the years but when i don't buy, i usually wind up spending it on other stuff anyways. It really seems to come down to the individual. Almost all my friends my age have their college degrees (they come from more fortunate families so don't want to make it sound like i'm just lazy) and i know people who have kids and drink way too much...they all smoke a lot of bud and lead very different lives. To be dead honest, I really wish they'd do some sort of Kinsey type report on weed...

for ten years i bought around 100 a week, so 5,200 a year , so about 52,000 thousand in ten years. which i owe about 30 grand in debt, but have about 150,000 in my 401 k and in 2 years i get to take another loan out, so i plan to take about 50 grand out at that time to pay off all my debt, includes my wife school loan. but ya in honesty i would be doing much better without pot in my life. but i did bring me a lot of joy. as Drew Carey says why make the money if you can't enjoy spending it.

I sometimes forget that I get my weed pretty cheap. I spend about $100-120 a month and I'm high every weeknight and sometimes all weekend long. Granted, it's not high grade stuff, but it's working for me right now High grade (though I don't have any right now) is saved for concerts and whatnot... I might spend 3 times as much for that. I wouldn't smoke the good stuff every day anyway... unless I want to spend hours watching rabbits and birds out in the yard (guilty).

I know many successful people (won't name names) who are potheads... and I'm not talking about musicians... but people with normal jobs. I wish I didn't have a normal job, but I've been steadily employed in the financial services industry for about 10 years, earning above the median (although barely) and I've never had a break from pot during those 10 years.

When my generation takes over (I'm 34) it's gonna be legal. No doubt about it.

Here's my average day... go to work, be a productive citizen, come home from work, smoke a bowl, talk a 45 minute walk, eat a huge dinner, smoke another bowl, and I'm good for the night. I'm perfectly functional. I'm going food shopping in a few minutes... and yes, I will find something for the munchies, but it'll be apples, or granola, not Doritos. Perhaps some ice cream.... 8-)

I suppose weed is not for everyone, but some of us would be less than ourselves without it. Others are less than themselves with it... I don't dispute that. It's very strange...

Boy am I fucking hungry right now. See ya!

It keeps me from twisting heads and snapping necks. So, it's good for everyone (in my general vicinity), not just me.

Funny thing is that I used to think the same way when I was wasted 24/7, when I slowed down to once a day and then once a week people commented on how much more relaxed I was.

I don't "think" that way, I know that way. You are just going to have to trust me on this one. And how does one get "wasted" on marijuana anyway? I've been wasted drunk, I've been hopped to the gills on speed, coke, and acid. I've sat comotose in chairs from opiates, but I have never been wasted on weed. Pretty goddamn high, but never wasted.

My man gets this stuff he calls blue cheese, it brings a new dimension to getting stoned, also try a ground pipe, the local yardies thought they had been high until I made them one of those.

it is joy for me, not work at all.
i will find the book, the poem and type it out for us all.
in fact, if you smoke the words you will become the lethargic occupant.

sound fun?

now wish me luck in finding the book.

Ever use Bible paper, your not a real stoner until you do. there's those 3 empty pages in the back, but after that i recommend starting with the old testament.
