No. I've never smoked weed, and if I did, a cop would materialize behind me right at that moment.
And if one did, all he would do is give you a stern look and say 'come on now, you should really put that out' before leaving to do real police work that he actually gives a shit about.

Why would I be at a party? I never get invited anywhere and when I do I can't afford it.
I'd say no to a joint. I don't care how people may argue it's fine and good for you, I take pride in being the only one in my family to not to take drugs.

Do a Mark Corrigan: Make them think you've taken it, then act stoned, followed by ambushing them which I get bored of their antics and giving a speech about how stupid they're all behaving.

Yes, I know that this was with a tablet, and that he did weed once, but the point remains that it would be epically more fun.

I'm surprised most people on this thread wouldn't even do it out of curiousity. Weed is non-addictive and having a few tokes is about as harmful as having a couple of bottles of beer.

Basically, if you try it, you either decide you don't like it and don't do it again (but now from a point of experience rather than naivety), or you decide its actually fairly pleasant and may do it again from time to time.

Provided you don't become a stoner (and its pretty difficult to get addicted to cannabis from wht I've heard), there is no problem with doing it occaisionally. Its less harmful than alchohol. Furthermore, drunk people can get loud, violent and stupid, which I think is far worse than being mellow. Alchohol not only causes more damage to yourself, but also to other people (drunk driving, getting into fights etc.). I don't see how you can drink alchohol but be against cannabis and have a consistent argument.

Never have, never will. And I really wouldn't have to do much to get any, my room-mate smokes... I'll stick to copious amounts of alcohol, thank you.

Incidentally, I know a lot of people believe it's not addictive. This is wrong. It's not physically addictive, like tobacco, but it is psychologically addictive. It might take a bit longer before you're hooked, but it's at least as hard to shake as a physical addiction.

Yes, I would. Mainly because the person that offers it would have some of the best around...

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.
