Well that is just you pillz, but you're not the only weed smoker.
As far as I learned, weed just give you a boost.

For instance, you smoke it when you're mad. You get more angry.
You smoke weed when you're horny, you're more horny.

Some people may drive while they are driving back home. Le tired, You get more tired.

lolwut weed has never made me angry sure it can make you tired it all rly depends on the kind of weed and the person.

They have weed to make you specifically tired or hungry or relieve pain or make you hyper.

Weed is universal as shit guys scientists could go in and change weed to specifically fight cancer if it was legalized and they had the research money to. there are many possibilities!

[Finniespin]

I know, I trust you on that. But other people are different from you. Just let us end this conversation. And hoop weed is legalized everywhere.

PS: My dad bought 3 weed plants, umad 
Maybe postin a picture of it :p

Also,by the way, congrats to you guys who say you can get addicted to it. If you consume enough chocolate, strawberries, or ice cream they release enough endorphins to cause the same feelings... wait, RAUNKY SAID THAT AND YOU SHOT IT DOWN WITH NO RESEARCH TO BACK  IT UP?

I just said it wasn't the same. I never once said you couldn't get addicted to eating something. You get awfully emotional over something that isn't important... but to be fair, you can be addicted to a lot of things outside of medication/drugs...

Ok, let me use an example from my personal life. I gave up chocolate for a month and a half(something that doesn't cause medical addiction like, hmm, maybe marijuana?) => I wanted it but I never got it which just increased my want. I gave up caffeine for a month and a half => Headaches, tired, felt terrible.
TL;DR = The true addiction isn't the fucking same. Also, just because it's a drug doesn't make it addicting.

Incorrect, though YES, it does differ from person to person, I believe your chances on getting angry never increase after smoking. So many many times I've smoked while angry and have been relieved of that anger.

Girls I've noticed always get horny and more flirty after smoking weed. I usually become less.. likely to become horny.. lol

to bad chocolate is actually considered addictive and a drug

and caffeine is a drug one cup of coffee qualifies you to be medically stoned (although affects are different and not as noticable)

weed is also a drug but comparing all drugs to each other on a completely general term and no providing any distinction between them is not the best way to move forward with this conversation

Also, I suppose I'll speak on behalf of Cadaver and say let's keep our personal experiences out of this more.

THIS.

Oh, and as a former Risk Manager from a Transportation Company, who had to deal with Hiring and Firing... a few things you all need to be aware of:

1. Anyone who has a drug charge of any kind on their records, in general, do not get hired for jobs...

2. Anyone attempting to get into College needs to realize all internet social forums, such as here, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, etc., are looked at by College Recruiters... Any issues considered "bad," such as drug use, can and will be, counted against you when you apply... And can get you "un"-accepted...

3. Anyone attempting to get a job, or career, the Human Resources Departments use your internet social forums for hiring decisions... and actively hire internet specialists to review internet information, and link said info to the applicant... Remember #2, above? Colleges are now starting to do this, too...

4. The internet is not as anonymous as you think.

5.The internet has a very long memory...

In addition: Do not toke and drive: DWI (Driving While Influenced) under the law, is just as bad as DUI, and stays on your record permanently... This can and will prevent your future employment.   I know, as I was one who researched people's MVR (Motor Vehicle Records) and did not hire anyone with a DWI or DUI.)

So, again, do not share personal experiences...

Oh, and yes, Human Resources was doing this with Minimum Wage level employment and higher...

[Pillz]

But like, I don't expect it to be anonymous. I expect nobody I know or meet to be able to find this.. they'd have to search pillz, something they would never know about.. and like.. yeah. It was hard enough to get Kelsey to read stuff I posted when we were dating, though once she did bring up something I posted and I was creeped out on the fact she actually read this shit..

[Cadaver]

LOL,
Girlfriends are a different thing... They are better at being the sleuth than any HR Department...

[Pillz]

Any page I am shown online she had a account for I put in my bookmarks bar.. Stalked her formspring for a while.. lol

[noxadante]

I do think that for medical use, defiantly, to legalize, would most defiantly  aid US's economy.

Defiantly? You want marijuana to DEFIANTLY aid the economy?

How defiant.

[Napoleon BonaPARTY]

I could care less.

If I ever use it, that is my choice, and people shouldn't bother with it.


Likewise, I don't care if other people use it, because that is their choice.

Well actually there is one thing I can think off that is sorta controversial, basically the shift of a economy, large sized companies have tried to stop weed from being legalised for a reason and if a mammoth company gets knocked off it's heels it could cause a very bad shift in euconomics that would probly not be good for your situation right now.
