The myth: Weed makes you lazy

[puddlemonkey]

damn lazy potheads!

weed makes you awesome at rockband and beach volleyball

Agreed.

People still make generalize statements about its use though

Well think of it this way, if weed makes 8/10 people incredibly lazy, and the other 2/10 are still motivated and can do whatever they want.

Then wouldn't the statement that weed makes people lazy be pretty freaking accurate?

cause that's sort of what it seems like.

-laugh hysterically
-be insanely funny
-be completely socially awkward and paranoid
-make me want to eat all the cookies
-tired and worthless

I can't even count the number of times I seen some random people come up to my old college room during parities, rip a bong and have hilarious panic attacks... especially when we had bomb hydro, some basketball players would come in and be like "lets roll it up pimpin".. I laugh, bust out a gravity bong, show him how to use it, then watch him literally puke his brains out because he can't breathe.. 5 min later dude needs help down the steps

^^^^ I love the gravity bong.....havent used one in a long time though......

Not at all. Everything I purcashe is produced locally and some of it legally (in california you can grow legally for medicinal purposes).

#1 You don't know its all produced locally. Short of going to the guy's farm and cutting it right off the plant -- or is that what you do?

#2 The sellers/distributors surely don't carry pot exclusively. Aren't you helping firm-up other illicit drug trade by buying one of the "less harmful" drugs?

And yeah, I'm sure you can conjure-up in your mind that home-grown, exclusive dealer that you've purchased from before. But now conjure-up the sleeziest, most questionable scumbag you've ever bought from before -- even if it was a one-time deal (and you know it's happened).

I'm not anti-pot -- as a matter of fact I think other drugs (i.e. E) should probably be legal under controlled circumstances. But when I did purchase anything, I wondered if I was funding a shiny new AK-47 for some columbian guy to use on his local judge.
