After reading the first two pages, I have to say: I'm glad you people don't get invited to parties. Seriously, every other post here indicates that I'd be on the receiving end of a condescending "I'm better than you because the government made ad campaigns saying that only losers smoke weed"-speech if I tried to (gasp) enjoy myself at a party, of all places.

Special mention goes to those that listed the heroic actions they'd take if someone tried to force them to partake, because we all know that stoners are the Borg incarnate and want nothing more than to pervert the vestiges of your innocence by mouth-raping you with a joint and (somehow) causing you to involuntarily inhale; good job of standing up for yourself against the supernaturally frequent threat of someone wanting to hang out with you by any means necessary, including assault. That could've been a close call for a lesser person, except, perhaps, for the part where you invented a ridiculously improbable situation so you could make self-aggrandizing statements about how exceptionally strong-willed and superior you are, which subtly betrays the fact that you choose not to partake in the consumption of cannabis not for any rational, medical or scientific reasons, but instead because it would cost you the ability to boast about how great you are. Aside from that minor issue, you're officially King Holyshit of Fuckingawesome Mountain.

OT: You bet your ass I would. It's a benign, enjoyable, unfairly demonized practice that I will never apologize for, regardless of whomever makes the arbitrary assertion that I'm beneath them because of it.

It's estimated that about 80-some% of all humans will/have smoke(d) weed.

Of that number, about 50-ish% will continue smoking it regularly.
I call absolute bullshit on those statistics. Can you give me proof that 40% of the six billion people on this planet smoke weed regularly?
Probably not, as I don't even remember where I heard those statistics, but I wouldn't doubt it anyways, weed is recognized as a harmless recreational drug in many places of the world, including (not officially, of course) a lot of places in the U.S.

I'm not going to debate population statistics that I have no proof of, but what I can say is that weed is a whole lot more common than most people realize.

I could literally break into any given locker in my school (not that I would) and find evidence that a person smokes weed, I even saw a glass pipe in one of my teachers' desk drawers once (probably not a good idea on his part).

Anyways, since I can't provide a decent argument, how about you prove me wrong?
I see your point now, I guess. I'm not really against weed in any particular way(just the annoying stoners at my bus stop), and I'm aware how common it is, but I hate it when people show statistics without a source.

So yeah, no hard feelings?
No harm done, sir.

Sir, I fully concur with you.

You, my man, gave me hope. Hope for the Escapist community to take the sticks out of their asses and see the light.

And for that, I thank you.

I'd rather take it by myself at my home, mostly because I despise parties and people in general, but in that case sure, I have not problem with free pot.

Nope. Can't stand weed. If it's just one guy, I pass and ignore him. If it turns out that most people there are smoking, I probably leave. Just the smell of pot makes me physically ill.

No..no I wouldn't. I hold nothing against anyone who choses to do so either. In fact I play own game, I wait for people to get high and then steal their women-folk. That's how I get high.
That's quite a plan right there. I like it.

I guess this is a hypothetical situation where I'll be around people smoking in the first place, but no.

If you're doing something wrong, don't feel bad if you get punished.
Since when is smoking weed a moral issue...
If morality is defined by legality, in many places it's illegal to be homosexual. Ergo it's wrong to be homosexual? Doing "something wrong" should get punished, but that's not what this is about so please don't equate the two.

Some random guy? no.
A friend of mine? I'll ask him where he got it first.
A family member? I'll ask if it's the usual or some new kind.
