Lol, you all think that. Buddy Hackett thought he was doing the best work of his life when he smoked pot every day in the early 50's. He got off it for 6 months and realized he was treading water and never touched it again. I really hate to use this cliche, but they call it 'dope' for a reason. It stalls your brain, it doesn't enhance it. Weed is a fooler, been there, done that. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| Beethoven Member since: Apr 27, 2014 Threads: 18 Posts: 640 | If marijuana is legalized nationwide, I say we go all out and legalize everything. Why not? I think it's comical whenever libs portray people who oppose legalization as being overly judgmental, yet they do the EXACT same thing to people who want to legalize other drugs. Freakin hypocrites.

In this guys case my thought is he was skinny because he was a major drinker as well. My guess, and it is a guess, is he got his caloric needs from the booze but no nutrition form it. If meth was around back then like now I have no doubt he would be hooked as he fit the stereotypical white male from smaller town profile of that.
A good point that some are productive and some are not. Another stoner I knew through my brother regularly worked 50-60 hour weeks, but he had the stoner thing going so he could never get a good job as he could never pass the dope test. He ran two businesses into the ground, losing six figures total. But that was because he was an idiot at retail not because of dope. He never progressed past the $10-12 an hour career level. His parents had cash and his mother still does. Hopefully they set cash aside for his special needs brother because the guy is going to be a guy who inherits a house he cannot support and slowly slide to being barely able to rent a trailer. The President is a fink. |

| Beethoven Member since: Apr 27, 2014 Threads: 18 Posts: 640 | I love it when potheads use alcohol to justify the legalization of marijuana. Yet if a meth head comes along and tries to use marijuana to justify the legalization of meth, I can GUARANTEE you that most potheads will reject that argument...............which is no different than their own. Gotta love the hypocrisy. *facepalm* Boron Boron Boron rhymes with moron, moron, moron |

Every pothead I've known will tell you it has no effect on their career or home life. It's the classic delusion the drug causes. The only careers that pot enhances are in the rock business, because that biz encourages drug use from everybody involved. You never hear a top CEO say he got where he is by smoking reefer every day. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

The former says Keith Richards taught him to skin-up. Just to say for every rule, there's an exception. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |

Ceo's that used mj? There was Bill, although he says he never inhaled And W, who I think never exhaled And, Obama also known as "Choom-boy" Not really profitable ceo's but did ok for themselves. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

You're living in a fantasy world if you think these guys spend part of every day taking hits off the bong. Pot use on a daily basis shuts down the creative part of the brain, it doesn't enhance it. Again, and I'm really sorry, it's called DOPE because it makes you dopey, not brilliant. Duh.. I smoked it almost every day for a year, and it was weak knee'd granny grass compared to what they smoke now. I quit because I got tired of turning my brain into creamed cheese for a few hours. It got boring and childish, time to move on. People who choose not to move on have serious issues, they have a major disconnect.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
