It makes you high and because it's illegal you get paranoid about the cops, also you get "the munchies".

It makes a bunch of people who are normally failures feel good about themselves, but it also makes them smell weird, so it kind of works out.

First off, you absolutely reek of the stuff. I had to use like half a can of deoderant to hide it once. It slows down your senses and makes you happy and everything you see is funny as hell. You also get The Munchies which makes you want to eat crap food for a while. I ate half a tub of marshmallows the last time I used it.

Vague "scientific" studies have sort of proven it to improve your eyesight a bit, which makes stoners people want it legalised.

Prolonged use can cause Panic Attacks, Amnesia, Depression and Paranoia.

You shouldn't ask us, you should use www.talktofrank.com Apparently that's propaganda.

It also stays in your bloodstream for up to 2 months (as proven by random drugs testing at my school). So watch out.


Edit: I'm updating this from everyone else's posts.

Medically speaking "proper" (regulated and controlled) amounts of it can help people with problems.

Recreationally it makes you "relax" by slowing down your senses. Making everything seem funnier.

Potentially it can also make you extremely hungry ("the munchies"), paranoid and forgetful.

Everyone should hand out anti-drug propaganda!
Should I send this fella a vintage copy of Reefer Madness, perhaps?

That's like the worst website you could read about marijuana.

More importantly, it impairs your driving skills for up to 24 hours, keep that in mind if you smoke.
Smoke friday and don't use the car on saturday, you should be good to go again sunday.

From my own experience, i have to admit that not everything becomes insanely funny, Sometimes i just got tired.

I've heard that some shrooms actually does give the everything-is-epicly-funny sensation. Other shrooms just makes you grow if you're an italian plumber.

Marijuana fucks up your life... don't do it unless you live somewhere where it is legal.
Or if you have no job, or are not worried about the negative effects of it.

Drugs are bad... m'kay?

It depends on your current mood I think, if you are already in a good mood it gets you higher, if you aren't it can make you depressed. And occasionally you hallucinate, at least I think thats it...

Eventually you degenerate to a paranoid gibbering wreck.

TBH the long term effects of heavy use (arguably) aren't much worse than Alcohol, it's just a case that it has no multi billion pound industry behind it, so it's more tightly controlled.

Slow senses are a bad thing for anyone who need their wits about them: Military, Medical, Fire fighters, Police etc.

Driving impairment for 24 hours is bad for anyone who drives as a part of their job: Same as above.

Delusion is bad for obvious reasons.

Forgetfulness/Amnesia is not just an effect while you are taking it but something that can get worse the more you do it. This is bad hopefully for obvious reasons too.

Arguably it is no worse than alcohol, but try banning alcohol now and there would be riots.
