First \'pot\' is not an addictive substance.  The products that it is mixed with in order to be consumed is...(scientifically proven).
Or it is the euphoric feeling that people become addicted to.  
THC is also used in a lot of medicines and is undergoing research as a form of medicine which can be used by people who suffer from MS (Multiple Sclerosis), as well as eleviating the pain of Cancers and other physical problems.  
It has also been used throughout history as a multiple use item i.e. rope, clothes.  And it is on the increase as a manufacturers choice of fibre.  

Apart from that I am with you on the addictive substances.  

If people dont bother you and you have a laid back attitude how can pot smokers despise you?
Bit of a contradiction of terms there Monketh!

Under the moon, you\'re not that wierd. I like to go sledding with no coat(or even a shirt sometimes). <<; >>;. And I wrestle dogs. In the snow.
And when I was a kid I could only sleep if it was very dark. like. no light. I would take blankets and cover windows and stuff so no light could get in.

Yes Snow, I am a weirdo :D. I wanted to be Gonzo from the Muppets as a child.  A: The bully was a head and a half taller than I, a year older, but was all fat and no brain.  He thought he could throw he weight around, and I begged to differ.  It\'s funny to hear that you made a 300 lb bully cry.  Especially when you only have a third his bulk.

Bardialus, red hair, wow, where do I begin?  First off, I guess I have an Irish/ Russian redhead fixation.  Allways have, allways will.  Can you blame me?

I also find haunted houses (the \'fun house\' type, not the real ones, but they\'re funny too ;)) hilarious.  Three of my brothers and I once went to one.  The people before us, two girls and two guys, were screaming and yelling in fear.  We went in an found ourselves in a radiation dump with broken barrels.  As we passed a small grate in the wall, a guy screamed from behind the wall (in a scary way).  All four of us burst out laughing.  While my brothers where laughing, I crept arround the next corner and spotted another grate.  So, ever so quietly, I hid under the grate until I heard a small shuffle.  I jumped up and let out the most blood curdling scream/growl I could manage and pounded furiously on the grate.  I heard a satisfying thump on the other side of someone falling, and laughed until my sides hurt.  Suffice to say, the rest of the grates on the tour were silent and empty. :D

Another one?! I wanted to be gonzo too..I mean most kids I knew did, everyone wants to the weird one.

And no I cant blame you, but being a member of the redheads of the world I think its funny we draw attention by just having a different hair colour!!! LMAO to those who think we should be a \'normal\' hair colour.

Sorry, misinterpreted there.  I did mean to imply that pot isn\'t very addictive.  I hate them anyway.  I\'m sure you\'ve seen someone high on pot?  I can\'t stand every single pothead I\'ve seen.  They\'re annoying as hell, but that might just be the ones I know or the ones of my generation.  Especially when you have to sit next to one who\'s older than you and still can\'t understand basic algebra.  He also drove while both high and drunk...

I understand that hemp can be used for many things.
In fact, it\'s a lot more efficient for things like paper.  If there weren\'t people disguising marijuana as hemp....
I have a neo-hippie uncle who has trouble keeping jobs.   Used to sell the stuff until his store burnt down \'cuz he left the Christmas lights on and afterword we learned that he didn\'t have any insurance whatsoever.  He\'s done other fiscally stupid things before.
The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM

Ok \'POT\' is not addictive at all.  the chemicals it is made up of THC (tetrahydracannabinol) has no addictive properties at all.  

By hating all pot smokers that means you hate the following:
George Washington, Bill Clinton, Jack Nicholson, Friedrich Nietzsche, Winston Churchill, Francis Ford Coppola,  Michael Bloomberg (NY mayor), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, John F Kennedy, Steven King, Thomas Jefferson, Oliver Stone, Wesley Snipes....And to nail that whole \'basic understanding of Algebra\':.........
Richard Feynman (Nobel Prize Laureate physicist, founder of quantum electrodynamics).
I could keep listing here, but I think I have made my point about \'pot\' to the fullest.  

Oh and Dali also \'toked the weed\'  Hmm understandable now isnt it?

Really you should understand things a little better before making unsupported comments about them Monketh.

Im sorry if I have \'burst your bubble\' but thats the way of the world.  There are more famous and high calibre people that smoke pot and still provide the world with ideas that change the world than you realise...You hate all of them too?

I dont think its pot you hate, I think its those who allow pot to take over their lives that you hate.

Probably.  I\'ve had a very poor experience with all the potheads I know, so I base views on personal experience.

Perhaps I should chalk those users I know up to teenage stupidity.  Of course, for something to takeover a life it has to have the ability to do so in the first place.  Keeping it illegal is not something I will oppose.

How many times do you need people to spell it out to you?  Pot is not addictive in any form of the substance.  

Many things can take over someones life without it being detrimental, and from the amount of posts you\'ve put on this forum I can guess what\'s taking over yours!  (Not that this is a bad thing  ;) )

I would chalk it down simply to teenage stupidity too, or we\'d have to assume na?vety on your behalf.  Maybe the only stoners you know are of a certain mindset, or they have decided that that is all they want to do with their life...  

It\'s not the pot which is to blame, if it wasn\'t pot maybe it\'d be alcohol, or something worse.  

All of the people I have known who have smoked pot are the friendliest, most creative people I have ever met.  This is not to say that they are creative because they smoke pot, it just seems to awaken something in them which helps them comprehend things in ways that people who have never smoked the stuff will never understand.
Sometimes you\'ll never know why...

But thats ok.

Ouch.. If you feel you need to talk to someone I\'m willing to listen, may not be able to help much but atleast I can listen.

Rose, I had such, such, downtimes when I was around your age, but please don\'t think I\'m trying to patronise you when I say that.  Please read this it helped to change my life...  I hope it helps you too:

Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep and you weep alone,
For sad old earth must borrow it\'s mirth,
But has trouble enough of it\'s own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, and it\'s lost on the air,
The echoes are bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.

Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they will turn and go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure.
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink lifes gall.

Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and you give, and it helps you to live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure for a large and Lordly train,
But one by one, we must all file on,
Through the narrow aisles of pain.

I hope when you read this you realise that you will never be alone...  All you have to do is post...

We have a saying here in England, \'Keep your chin up\'...
Sometimes you\'ll never know why...

But thats ok.
