    Default Pot Noob

    I've never done drugs in my life and I was to try some pot for the fuck of it. What do I expect? Does it burn going down? How long does it take to get high, etc. Yeah, I'm a noob.

    Coughing like your lungs are going to jump out and die in front of you type of coughing. To minimize put ice in a bong helps alot with that and having something to drink right after. Takes like less than 5 min. to start feeling it. Be prepared for immense hunger (ie munchies) and cotton mouth. Also, youll probably feel a bit dumbed down and really giggly. Oh yea and you might get really paranoid. Sometimes the experience is different for everyone.

    Um yea... I saw this all on TV. It has corrupted my fragile little mind.

    It makes me cough. I think it's different for regular smokers though. My friends never seem to have the problem but I don't do it much.

    Sorry to be a buzz kill, but....If you've made it into adulthood w/o smoking pot (for the most part illegal in most states) or doing any other illicit drugs, why start now?

    My best tip- don't eat it. I made the dumb dumb mistake of eating a mouthful of hydroponic pot. (Man.....DON'T ask.) My brain was frying & paranoid for three days. I had the equivalent experience of a bad acid trip from the overload....
    Luckily, long-term....the experience made me calmer & more openminded but it was a "NO Vaseline!" intro to pot.

    Pot in small doses is medicinal.

    Please don't make this a long term thing. I used to smoke, and the friends I had back then are still smoking, and they have kids, no jobs/ bad jobs, no education, will to go out and do anything. It really does make MOST people lazy and stupid, and in my opinion, that shit stinks horribly. Please please please don't let yourself walk around with red eyes, food crumbs on your moth and smelling like skunk ass.

    Why ever drink? Why ever tan? Etc. For the fun of it! Trying pot once or twice isn't going to ruin me.

    I've tried it twice. First time was fine. Second time i was on the train home the next day thinking it was out of my system when i started hearing all of these voices talking in the carriage, and they kept getting louder. There was noone else in the carriage.
    never did it again

    Meh I smoke weed once n awhile and I like to think im not a loser who does fairly well for themselves. I hate the sterotypes that go with pot heads... I know so many people who smoke weed and you would never guess it.

    Weed is a great way to relax.. I used to be a regular pot head but I couldnt handle it so now i'll smoke a joint or two a week at the most. I dont smoke a lot of it, maybe one or two pulls but its just enough to take the edge off and I think its better then alcohol or ciggies(and im a smoker).

    Ya you'll feel lazy, ya you'll cough a bit and yea it makes you feel slow but its not bad.

    you are obviously making good money if you are looking for new hobbies.

    Might as well pick a productive one. I don't do drugs because I'm anti-drugs. I can just find so many better things to waste money on.

    That is why I said MOST people becaome lazy and stupid, not all. I know a couple of people who have phd's and smoke, but most of the people I klnow who smoke never made it more than a few semesters in college at most, or didn't even go past highschool at all. It's a waste of money and a bad idea. Sleep or meditation are also great relaxers, and they don't have any weird side effects.

    Heh im a mooch I never buy my own weed... I cant be bothered to buy it as I dont smoke nearly enough, it would be nasty before I finished it.

    As I said once n awhile is fine but dont become a regular smoker as it is a waste of money.

    Uh no offense but maybe it's just the people you knew had a propensity towards being lazy and stupid.

    Most of my friends/family are regular pot smokers and all of them are active healthy people with jobs.

    I'm not promoting it to anyone, to each thier own. I just hate the blanket statement about pot smokers all being lazy and stupid.

    So, the reason they have kids, no jobs, and will go out and do "anything" is because of marijuana? Sounds like someone's passing the buck to me. Stereotypes are really very narrow-minded and often incorrect....strippers of all people should know this. Now excuse me as I go cry over being molested as a child while I hit my crack pipe...

    Sugar, that is why I said MOST, not ALL. And that was "will NOT go out and do anything" because they are too busy smoking pot all day. Stereo type or not, this is what I in my own experience, and even while I was in HS and a smoker myself, have foound to be true MOST of the time, not ALL. So before you go running your mouth get my words right. Damn I must be about to get my period. Didn't mean to be so rude.

    I'm just saying...you make it sound like pot is the reason people are making all of these bad choices. I think low self esteem, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, or other mental issues would be the root cause for people like your friends. Marijuana, or any other kind of drug, ABUSE (key word) is almost always the symptom of a larger problem.

    *EDIT* and please don't call me sugar. I get that enough from guys at work and it annoys the crap outta me

    While everybody seems engrossed in a re-tread of the ol' drug/anti-drug debate, nobody noticed this? 30 freezer pops?

    I smoked in college, but only at the start of the weekends. I was a good student.

    Shortly thereafter, the stuff made me feel aches in my muscles, and so I quit. Never missed it, nor the irrational munchies.

    These days, it's mucho rare that I'll have a joint. But if you're going to do it, do it with top-quality stuff. Just like booze, you might as well go top shelf when and if you partake.

    sc101, sometimes the 1st time with pot isn't good because your body doesn't "recognize" the THC (or so I was told when I complained about trying it for the 1st time & being underwhelmed....)
    The opposite problem is that today's pot is much stronger than the pot from the 1960's and 70's....."Not your parent's pot" LOL ....Which is why some people can actually die from a THC overdose now from reduction in breathing rate or a related reaction....
    Pot in small doses is a cheap and preferrable way to treat depression, anxiety, pain, and lack of appetite. Pharmecutical companies don't want you to know that. They want you to spend your money on their pills, not on pot.

    Hmmm, interesting views towards weed. My parents are from the islands, therefore I always had a healthy view concerning weed. My parents sat me down and explained the uses, the importance of using it as a healing herb, and told me that to smoke for "the hell of it" was foolish. Because weed was never taboo in my household, I didn't try it until I was in college. I always viewed it as a medicinal plant, and I think the reason people tend to get lazy, stupid, and foolish while using it is because they abuse it. Some things taken in moderation and with purpose is okay. Note, the operative words are SOME, and MODERATION. When weed is used as an activity, something to do, or as a crowd pleaser the end result is usually undesirable. Don't get me wrong, I am not a pot head havent had a joint in months, but I can appreciate the mellow affect it produces. My parents stressed the purposes ( according to their religion background and upbringing) of this plant, and sure when I first tried it I fell into the smokingbecauseitscool category. I soon grew to realize that I was misusing it. I see the harms in teens smoking, and I believe that it shouldn't be used in abusive settings by young adults. But I also believe that it can be used within absolute reason and not create a stinky, raging, redeye munchie monster. My parents are successful, loving, and spiritual, yet they didn't deny and sugarcoat weed. So I guess it's a case of to each your own. I do not support druggie weed heads, but I guess you can call me a Rasta in the making, b/c I do see the possible spiritual, physical, and mental healing that it can bring mature open minded adults.
