Actually, it does contribute to lung cancer - after inhaling a substance like smoke, the cilia in your lungs cannot properly move liquid, mucus, or debris from your lungs due to a 12 hour paralysis. But if you smoke pot everyday, your lungs will become coated and this increases the chance of lung cancer.xXGeckoXx said:You cant overdose on it (you can but you have to smoke more that 5000 joints a minute to succeed. Try that). It has no radioactive compounds in it like a ciggarete. No carbon monoxide. Does not increase chances for lung cancer (seriously it does not). It is bad for you on one level which is the same level at which smoking any plant material which is that the smoke can (in the long term) cause some low level lung problems. Contains no tar so no black lung). The myth that it destroys brain cells (believe it or not) was scientifically proved to be wrong and some studies (although not proven) show that it stimulates brain cell growth. It is not physiologically addictive and the only dependence is psychological(which means no physical withdrawal, You might just miss it). It's considered one of the best medicines in the world, can aid with incurable muscle wasting illnesses, some cancers and is a good painkiller. On top of it all weed is completely NATURAL.A Mad Monk 2 said:weed is actually bad for you. and no im not gonna explain it to a bunch of potheads
Despite all this I do not smoke weed.

Sorry mate, you misunderstand me. I don't know if it is in The States, but in England 'Smack' is a nickname for Heroin.The Austin said:Actually, it's really common to come across some reefers up on the mountain. Seriously, half the time the entire goddamn park smells like pot.NIHILHATE said:Man, I'd love to see a snowboarding smackhead... That'd be fucken classic.The Austin said:I've heard that weed gets in the way of natural highs, which are the only kind I go through. Seriously, snowboarding in Colorado while wearing nothing but jeans, a turtle neck, and a pair of aviators can take you higher than cocaine mixed with heroin.

And my mum's boyfriend smokes a lot of Weed (same as me, let's just say we get our "5 a day" at the least) and goes skiing every winter (rich bastard, haha) and comes back with stories of smokin' Biftas whilst skiing down mountain sides, which frankly I don't believe, but it's fairly entertaining.
Sorry if I rambled a bit, I'm a little stoned.
