I would love for folks who oppose medicinal marijuana to live with me for a while and see what I go through when the epilepsy randomly acts up. Most people have a good heart and would bend over backwards to help me if they saw how humiliating it is. I don't care about getting high, they can gimmie the non-psychoactive strand, it'd just be nice to have a life where I don't have to worry about seizing for 14 hours. That's not an exaggeration, I have to lay down the entire time and I can't eat or drink. It's not like you think of seeing a person drop and fully seize (that's called a tonic clonic seizure), it's more like a full body twitch/jerk every few seconds. I'm conscious the whole time. But if I get up I'll drop immediately and my hands won't instinctively catch myself, that's okay though because my face will.

That being said I'm actually not mad. I know how to handle my problems and I'm gonna lead by example. In the words of Kanye, who gon stop me?

Doesn't smoking cause lung cancer and heart disease?

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.

It's a 2 headed coin. Is it harmful? Of course. Will it speed up health problems? Yes. But depending on the person, is an extra 10 years or so really relaveant? That's Debatable.

I do admit there is no real good reason to explain why one smokes tobacco. But it's the choice people make. And regardless that it's not healthy, some people see it as an escape. 5 minutes of peace in the rush of life. Whether it be a work break or just an excuse to go outside, relax, and get away from a sticky situation.

I will say the Mary Jane is seemingly much less harmful to ones body then tobacco, seeing as most users don't smoke all day everyday like they do tobacco.

In fact, I really don't enjoy tobacco after smoking Mary, only when I get paranoid due to my surroundings(disguise the smell, or in some cases, getting "too high.")

I do wish I could stop smoking tobacco, but let me tell you, it is Hard. Hard hard hard.

Ah.. A struggle I may never know<_< saying smoking will cut off 10 years or so is a bit of a stretch.. More like all my years. Good news, if I wanna go out at least I can go with the buzz of my life, literally :roll:

I found out tonight that 4 classes stand between me and graduation. That is all. 4 classes. Provided I pass them all in the spring, you will be speaking to a scribbane with a Bachelors degree in English Literature. Thank any deity that you prefer because this is outstanding.

I quit cigs when I was 21 thank god. It was a becoming a problem for multiple reasons, the biggest being that it was taking a toll on my cardio. I would have to take deep breaths in conversations in order to 'get the words out' if that makes sense. Pretty damn ridiculous. I devised my own particular method for quitting which is a really long explanation but it worked. As kind of a side note, cigs are absurdly expensive nowadays. My buddy smokes L&M's and I tried one of those and good god almighty was it awful.

That being said I don't let it bother me when others' smoke, only if I'm at the bar and someones cig is sitting in an ashtray and the smoke is going in my face. In that event I just move it slightly but I'm cool about it. Nobody's had an issue with me doing that, if anything they apologize and completely relocate said cig.

Regarding MJ: I'm past the whole stoner thing. That's not to say I don't smoke anymore, I just don't make a big deal out of it. I don't have any pot leaf t-shirts or any stupid weed posters on my wall. I don't watch cheech and chong or anything like that...okay Pineapple Express was pretty damn funny so I guess I take that back. MJ is the McDonalds on the corner of the street. MJ is the bottle of wine you've been saving for that-one-occasion. MJ is what you make it.

It takes a few years for most people but after a while, you realize you don't have to announce it to the world. I can usually tell within 5 minutes of talking to someone if they're down or not. But I find it dumb to bring it up to people, especially strangers. I will say though, since I have dreads, I don't have to say a word to anyone, they already know. I've cut down a lot mainly due to my living situation and my lack of connections to it. I've really gotten over breaking my back to go out of my way to find it. But I do still indulge. Probably will for a long time too. But obviously, to each their own. Plus living in south Florida, virtually everyone smokes, or is cool with it at least.

I have a friend who's been smoking for like 10 years. He was coughing up blood recently and he said he was going to quit, but it kills me whenever I see him smoke, which he still does from time to time, sometimes more often than not.

I'm curious as to why you're opposed to medicinal marijuana, unless you're just hipstering or whatever people call it now.

Pretty sure it's time for a topic change.

Who'd win in a fist fight Darth Vader or the Red Ranger when he's in the ranger suit? Vader can't use the force to throw objects at him though that's cheating.

Got my new phone activated. Typing this on it now.

It's the same exact brand phone that I had before. A LG Optimus Fuel.

Hopefully I won't brick this one if that's what happened to my other one. I'm not gonna root this one for a good while. Like about a year. :P
