I never want to get into smoking at all, but a lot of my friends smoke and I don't get on their ass about it.
Why is it that everyone I know who smokes pot is cool, not peer pressure cool but like actually cool? It's hard to say smoking joints is bad when everyone that does it is so damn awesome.

None, but my friend and boss does. It helps him destress and honestly, working IT with him, I can understand why he needs it.

I've started freebasing heroine and crystal meth. Sometimes both at the same time. It's a lot better than I expected.
I smoke cigarettes extremely rarely. Mostly, it's a nervous thing to do with hands in some social situations, with the added bonus that you can use it to stall when you can't think of a response in a conversation. I'm pretty comfortable in most social situations, but I feel the need to do something with my hands most of the time. That's true of non-social situations too though I suppose.
Smoking pot is more just relaxation, the same way some people have a couple glasses of wine after finishing with work and responsibilities for the day.
It's worth mentioning that while SMOKING pot is clearly bad for you, at least in the short and medium term (as is inhaling essentially anything that was on fire), vaporizing or baking it into food has truly no established negative effects. There are short term effects of course, but even the decreased lung capacity from smoking (and potentially from vaporizing) goes away eventually. Add to that the fact that there's no evidence of carcinogens in the smoke (though I'm extremely sceptical of the "curing some forms of cancer" nonsense some have bought into), and you've got a pretty harmless substance. Certainly safer than alcohol or tobacco. Hell, though it's become a trite comparison, from what we know both medically and statistically, it's indisputably a safer drug than coffee.

I would shy away from saying "everyone", but you know some cool people I guessGrabbin Keelz said:
. Everyone I know that smokes marijuana because they like it* is the same way. Just some of the nicest, most amicable people that I've ever met. I know that I personally go out of my way more to be kind to people when I'm high, and usually people are kinder to me in turn. So it sorta works out, I guess haha. *I've learned that its always the people who smoke out of peer pressure who aren't very fun to be around.
I dont get why you would smoke out of peer pressure. Almost everyone I know does it because you know its fun?ClassicJokester said:I would shy away from saying "everyone", but you know some cool people I guessGrabbin Keelz said:
