You know absolutely nothing. My ex-roomate from college smokes about 4 or 5 joints a day. He is an accomplished musician, produces and arranges music for films, teaches music, reads, writes, produces intricate woodwork for restorations (dangerous work), waxes philosophical on a range of political topics, neither receives or asks for anything from his government or neighbors and leads a normal life in every way. How about you?

Oh, come on. As an old 'stoner,' I don't buy this story.

There are also some high-functioning alcoholics as well as high-functioning potheads. But I don't think you'd be bragging about a friend who drank a case of beer or two bottles of vodka a day and could still keep a job.
