Ha! I read that right after I posted. Luckily I don't really like any hallucinogenic drugs. I have a tendency to get a bit paranoid.
Dammit! Trumped by Buck! I smoked a little pot in college. I didn't like it. I got all paranoid and thought my friend was hitting on my girlfriend. We almost got in a fight. I'll stick to beer, thank you.
I grew up in a home that was troubled by the alcohol abuse of my mother. I chose to steer clear of it. I'll take a drink now and then but it is not part of "my" culture. The altar we build towards alcohol and recreational drugs really saddens me. I think it is destructive.
I'm 21 and I voted no. I hardly drink either, I find that I don't really enjoy most alcohol and I am really annoyed when I come accross drunken idiots who think it is so awesome to be sh*t faced and throwing up half the night. Yeah, that sounds like fun. I like to experience life as is thank you very much.
I don't drink, smoke, or use illegal drugs. Never really have. And I'm 28. I don't care what other people do, though I don't want them 1) going psycho on me or 2) putting me in a position where I could get arrested along with them. But these situations don't really happen, because people who get high only want to do it when in the presence of others who are getting high. (it probably would put a damper on the party if you knew there was a sober person watching you act stupid and gathering stories about you to tell the next day ) Hopefully I haven't missed out on much. At least I will have my health, and I haven't cut off any body parts.
Oh yeah, and I have done an illegal drug once. It was may or june or something of this year. I smoked mar1juana with a group of guys and girls. What was the worse part of it? I never got high off of it.
Doesn't pot give you man-boobs? I saw a film in high school that showed a kid running in super-slow motion and his boobs were bouncing all over the place. Then the narrarator came on and said something to the effect that smoking pot increases estrogen flow in males....or someting like that.
yep. very strong, and very addictive. like i said before, once i started to get a "craving" for it, i kicked it. see ya. later. adios. Isabel, when you say "never really have", that sounds like "oh, i did it once or twice." is that what you're saying? Kam, sorry. is "E" better? how 'bout "chiclets"? of course, the folks i ran with were type specific. blue dolphins, white diamonds, white doves, etc.
for those that did it... do you tend to be more forgiving of athletes that do it, or do you hold them to a higher standard since they're making millions of dollars for playing a game?
Yes, but only about alcohol. And even those were by accident (when you don't realize what you're drinking). Never smoked or did illegal drugs at all. So there is the sad truth - I am completely boring. (too much of a conscience, I'm afraid... and too much of a perfectionist about my lifestyle.)
Dope is the only drug I've tried (and continue to enjoy as often as possible), and I have no intentions of trying anything else (except maybe shrooms at some point). That's because dope is the only drug that hasn't killed anyone. I've had plenty of chances to try other sh*t (especially when I was in Sydney), but I simply have no desire to. Seattle voters just passed a law making mar1juana enforcement the lowest priority, so I'm thrilled. Hopefully this trend will continue, and prisons will no longer be filled with perfectly good people that just enjoy getting buzzed, listening to music, and munching on a few cookies.
I'm completely forgiving. In fact, I become a bigger fan of the athletes when I find out that they're smoking dope. As long as they're straight when they play the games, I have no problem.
I am 30 and I have never come close to doing an illegal drug and I never want to do one. I have drunk alcoholic beverages but it has been almost 3 years since I last had an alcoholic beverage. Personally, I could care less what others do to themselves as long as it does not endanger me or my family or anyone else I care about. So, go ahead and knock yourself out if you want to do this (talking to no one in particular here - just in general), just make sure that you lay off this new hallucinogenic drug or you might cut off your schlong and then have to spend the rest of your life in an asylum.
chavela, what do you mean "too much much of a perfectionist about my lifestyle"? do you mean "using" drugs would not allow you to do the things you want to do, or that getting caught using drugs would not allow you to do the things you want to do?
