The bottom line is that kids are by and large freaking stupid, which is why they need adults around to keep them alive until their brains start working, generally some time around age 25

I agree with most everything that has been said in this thread - choking yourself just to feel high is definitely a stupid thing to do - but I will take offense to this one remark. I'm 21 and I consider myself to be an adult - I live on my own, have held down a full time job for over five years now and do not need an 'adult' around to keep me alive. My brain is working just fine now as are the brains of a lot of other people my age. This comment is just a generalization of the masses. Yes, there are some who don't grow up (not even after their 25th birthday) but to say that
by and large 'kids' need adults around until they turn 25 is a pretty low remark without a lot to back it up.....
just my thought on the matter....
