Your history with weed

Indeed, I'm also curious.
Well ciggs had zero effect at all, but when you're piss drunk it's certainly a lot more debilitating than weed.
And never done anything else but shrooms, acid, ecstasy and all seem much harder. Could've been just his personal tolerance and all

Yeah that was pretty much it, spot on.


Has been years, cliche I know but feel too old now
Could agree, deff not a group thing and while it was enjoyable was never that great.

Not anymore. It's enjoyable, but it's not a group activity and it hinders research unlike something like alcohol which enhances it in an acceptable range. 

I write papers stoned all the time but I avoid being too high when studying for tests. I think it's possible to handle a weed habit during school if you have enough of a tolerance and react well to weed in general.

I really don't feel like there's any way to consider weed a hard drug. It's so much milder than anything else that one can think of as a 'hard drug'

Used to be avid many moons ago, until most of my group of 'friends' migrated to whacking up speed (and beyond) - sh*t went seriously pear-shaped after that..........weed doesn't cause problems on its own, nasty people who dick with the weed do..... lucky I've survived until now.......and clean (and a bit 'loopy' ).  Prog is my preferred 'drug' of choice these days, with a bit of alcohol now and then, but I don't wanna fumble and damage an LP or something while pissed......... 

Sweets - best drug ever.
