Who knew that AOC was Canadian? Explains alot.
I hear the movie Refer Madness is playing again.
What a lot of nonsense that it causes any lasting problems. Millions of people out there are living proof that is bunk.
It’s okay to drink, kids!
Read the entire article - the only causality proved was in rats. As for humans: "Adolescent cannabis use is associated with behavioral changes related to reward and motivation in humans. [...] It is not known whether adolescent cannabis use causes either of these responses, or if cannabis use is rather a symptom of a pre-existing state that results in these behaviours."
Parents who use drugs have kids who use drugs!
My experience: Every kid in high school as well as myself smoked the stuff. By the time I got into college it was obvious that good grades and pot were not compatible so the pot took a back seat.
What gets me is the fact that I could never solve the simplest calculation after the smallest consumption but there are a few people that I’ve worked with that were brilliant at work as programmers and engineers and smoked amounts that would have made completely useless. The stuff has different effects on people but by far the most common effect is effecting an amotivational condition on the user so they are prone to basically being lazy.
For all those dope heads
I had a student that was out for a month from “scromiting.” Apparently, she smoked weed with such high THC that she started vomiting uncontrollably and the only thing that cured it was a hot bath. It’s apparently becoming common among people that smoke honey oil and so on.

Recreational Chemistry is for losers - bump for later....
Those of us who have lived long can see the damage in people all around us from both drugs and casual sex.
Oh oh.....
You’ll be hearing from the pot dealers union.
One of them threatened to sue me.
Sometimes I read comments on FR and think that I grew up in a bubble. As far as I know, even the wildest guys in my class didn’t do drugs. I heard rumors about a couple of girls, but alcohol and cigarettes were it as far as I knew for almost everyone from the football team captain to the biggest partier in the school.
Perhaps as Gen Xers Nancy Reagan’s “Just say no” campaign made a difference? Either way, articles like this make me grateful I never, ever messed with any kind of drugs.
Anyone of you ever get to know a fetal alcohol syndrome adult? Until you do and see the devastation drinking during causes during pregnancy , and it’s effect are life long and permanent why don’t you do us all a favor,(and I’m 29 years sober) and just cut out all the Cassandra like wailing about the weed.
I respect the honest comments here. Yes, THC corrupts “the prefrontal cortex” and damages a person’s brain. Yes, a person’s brain heals and generates new networks every day. Use it or lose it.
My senior citizen family member had 4.0 at top schools and presently has dementia. He cannot tie his shoes but he is fluent in French. Mysterious how the brain adapts.
MJ is for losers who cannot face trauma. Face it. Trauma sucks, everyone has it and healing is natural. MJ, drinks and promiscuity are not necessary.
Weed makes you retarded and gay...

>>The more cannabis you smoke, the more likely you are to be a loser, finds international study<<
= Persistent users likely to be lower paid and have relationship difficulties
= Research found abusers ended up in a lower social class than their parents
= Also more prone to be in less skilled, prestigious jobs and to run into debt
= Study [at University of California, and Duke University] followed children from birth up to age of 38
A highschool pal of mine who used to deal weed realized one day that he’d been high every single day for over a year. Him and his buddies used to smoke a joint upon waking. Smoke another at the bus stop. Smoke another upon arriving at school. Another at lunch. And then several more before the end of the day. He decided to go a full day without weed. Every single person he saw that day asked him in tones of alarm what was wrong. I’ll never forget how strangely unfamiliar his faced looked that day. Freaked him out.
