Did you go back to it for social reasons or was it mildly addictive physically or psychologically?I quit to pass drug tests. (Actually I've never had to take one...I just quit IN CASE I had to take one during the process of changing jobs.)
And it might be a bit addictive psychologically. Definately not physically, though.

Damn I remember those days in spite of myself & man that was some really raspby dirt so help me . Actually getting stationed in Hawaii @ 17 years young was the beginning of my digression of consumption .
The superior quality required MUCH less to achieve the desired level and then of course the responsibilities had kicked in at the same time . It was a win ~ win . I've burned 2-3 fatties in the last 21 years .
It is for me a nice reminder why I quit .

You are SOO busted ;) . Not really ... I have some close friends up in B.C. and no matter what time of the year I call them it always seem's to be 20 below or 30 degrees .
That grade must be that hypo stuff that was mentioned in an earlier reply . I know that there has been some rather creative innovations over the years to avoid the FedGov .

"Is it easier to quit than smoking?" YES! YES!! YES!!! NO comparison!
I agree. I've quit both. Pot was easy, cigarettes weren't. And, I have quit cigarettes a few times just to make sure it was hard to do. :^)

I was speaking of prison not pot. For the record, although I'm anti-objectitivist, I don't think folks should go to jail for pot...in fact my own experience has demonstrated to me that pot is a lesser evil than alcohol.

Some of the Mexican I've observed recently reminds me of early jamaican low grade semi-sense from the 70s.

Huh? I mean this is like so BS, because like... what were talking about? Oh, just give me another hit so I can finish my calculus project.

It's much easier to quit than cigarettes. They say the reason is it stores up in your fat cells, so it gets out of your system very gradually. Some people feel mildly irritated for a week or so, but generally it's not nearly as bad as stopping smoking cigarettes. It does seem to take a couple of months for the head to totally clear out.

Thanx for posting this thread. This always serves to make my point that some conservatives need the government to protect themselves from their own stupidity; while those who believe so try to ridicule those who believe in individual resposnibility.
Why keep providing evidence of your ignorance?

I agree. I don't think people should go to prison for pot. I think they have the wrong drug legalized as alcohol is so much more destructive, physically, mentally, and socially. Marijuana doesn't make people go crazy like alcohol often does. And it's not nearly as toxic.
