Why do you smoke pot? - Page 2 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

tehblaed · 12-25-2004, 12:19 AM

Marijuana is a completely experience based thing for me. Everything I like doing, everything in the world that is music and photography and a good philosophy discussion, becomes four hundred times better than it was.

Tophat665 · 12-25-2004, 09:34 AM

I used to smoke because it kept me from going berserk and killing people (hyperbole, but anger management was a big part of it). Now I just grit my teeth. Don't you love sensible drug laws?

che · 12-30-2004, 10:20 AM

I, like ledsam, have the fortune of living on of the most "pot renowned" cities in the world-Vancouver-so it's fairly accessible to us around here.

I used to be very opposed to the idea of smoking pot...then I met someone very special who opened my uptight mind to not only trying weed, but into trying to think a different way. That's what bud does. It creates new emotions, new opinions, and ultimately a new way of life...I probably sound like some stoner on a rant, so I think I'll leave it to my good friend (I wish) Ben Harper who words it perfectly:

"Herb the gift from the earth
And what’s from the earth
Is of the greatest worth
So before you knock it try it first
You’ll see it’s a blessing
And not a curse

If you don’t like my fire
Then don’t come around
Cause I’m gonna burn one down
Yes I’m gonna burn one down"

BC bud, you're alright with me

Tycow · 12-30-2004, 10:58 AM

Tried it once, didn't like it. I have lots of friends who smoke it, so I do not mind people who use it. As long as people aren't forced or pressured into using it, I think it's ok

OFKU0 · 12-30-2004, 12:26 PM

Kind of like, but different,...when Johnny Fever on WKRP In Cincinnati (anyone OLD enough to remember that show?) was being tested for sobriety and the more he drank, the more sober he got. Heh heh

The more I smoke, the smarter I get. Can't really explain it but having an already overly abundant creative mind, smoking is like my mind exploding with thoughts and imagines, sometimes completely overwhelming.

Being very close to 40, if someone was hell bent on trying any drugs, I'd suggest pot and nothing else. The only 2 drugs I've never used were heroin and estacy, and everything else is just garbage. From pills to coke, nothing but a waste of time and money not to mention the damage, physically as well as mentally.

And I like the buzz. The most I smoke in one sitting is about equivalent to one drag on a cigarette.I use a tiny little hash pipe and the bowl barely fits on my pinky finger. That keeps me going with a few beers for a few hours. An ounce of pot would last me at least a year but don't know for sure because I get it free, almost always have. Must be my personality or sumpin'

WS6_KID · 12-31-2004, 11:02 AM

I do it because I like to get high and Fock

plain and simple. Normally i'm well reserved but I cant just put it any other words

Powderedmaggot · 12-31-2004, 11:11 AM

I don't smoke pot much, anymore. Why not? I don't know but I just don't. I used to smoke regularly. I liked to smoke when I was doing long road trips, skiing, mountain bikeing, drinking or almost anything. It made things a little more fun. It was/is also really good for sex as it heightens sensitivity.

jaypc2 · 01-01-2005, 04:11 PM

umm because i get bored?

Scorps · 01-01-2005, 06:13 PM

I just like to smoke it only when I hang out with all the guys, helps me relax...when I really need to.

spcartman · 01-01-2005, 08:41 PM

I started smoking in my early / mid teens just to get wasted. Back in those days everyone like to get in an altered state by drinking or smoking or both and just hang out and laugh our asses off at stupid things. As the years went by, it became a habit. Not an addiction like cigarrettes, just something that I did on a regular basis. I'd smoke a bowl or four every day. I certainly stopped enjoying it as much as I used to in the early years which is why I've just given it up. It's just not as fun as it used to be.

No regrets though

Skerious · 01-03-2005, 10:50 AM

so i can be cool and fit in, i succomb to the peer pressure, even though i know it will make my brain look like eggs frying on a rock

seriously, just because its there

biznatch · 01-03-2005, 01:47 PM

hmm. lets see weed does act as impairing, but then again so does alcohol, and thats legal.
I like to be with friends and have a good time, laugh stupidly, not worrying about sounding smart and things.
I like to lay back and have my whole body feel differently.
I have only smoked weed 3 times.
As a matter of fact, the first time was Thanksgiving, 3 months ago...
lotsa fun, I must say. I'm gonna try drawing, or making music while high.
And I even like the way the smoke feels in my lungs...
I also tried Hooka, and liked it a lot.

gonad · 01-04-2005, 12:42 AM

Um, I like it. I like it much more than I like getting drunk. Didn't start until well into college. I'm not sick in the mornings like my friends who shun pot in favor of alcohol. I have no trouble getting up and going to work. It does tend to make me a little fatter, what with the munchies and late-night eating and all, but for a year or so now I've just been excercising to counteract it and I'm in better shape than I was in high school. It's mellow, it's relaxing and like nearly everything I was warned away from when I was a kid, it's not a horrible, soul-warping drug.

That is all.

Indeed I did.

I think I was drunk then. Another reason weed is better

IC3 · 03-02-2005, 09:56 PM

Weed is great, It does make you look at everything in a different perspective and makes you focus alot more on whatever it is that your doing.

I havent smoked a J in 2 months, I'm not quitting..Just one night i was like...Nah not tonight. I still got a bag sittin in my drawer.

It's not addictive, Before i decided i would take a break..I was smokin daily. It's just a plant that grows from the ground, Or inside like a house plant..Just alittle more sophisticated in the growing process.

I smoke weed for the high, Everything is heightened when your stoned..I mean everything from eating to fucking to staring at the wall.

favourite thing to do though, Listen to music..It's great.

moot1337 · 03-02-2005, 10:01 PM

I don't need to add much, as many people have posted about the hypercreativity and intellecutal effects on people who are already mentally stimulated... I also like the feeling of being high and the heightened sense of just about everything. In fact, I'm about to go and vaporize me a bowl of KB right now...

And of course marijuana's a gateway drug. To quote half baked, "weed leads to many things... mostly junk food." But as to harder drugs, it depends on the personality. Addictive personalities are much more likely to try other things, once they've had a sample of something that *can* be addictive...

degrawj · 03-03-2005, 11:04 AM

because i enjoy it. i'm a pretty stressful person, and it helps me relax. i also get migraines, and it helps prevent migraines. it's also a great way to chill out and experience same old activities in a new way. i could probably keep thinking of more reasons, but i have lots of stuff to do today.

biznatch · 03-03-2005, 04:59 PM

I love how everything seems to make sense when you're high... because everything doesn't have to have a reason....Why is that thing there? who the hell cares...it looks nice and I feel good, so why worry and make things complicated instead of enjoying the very sensation of living...breating...watching Anchorman completely stoned...

Ace_O_Spades · 03-03-2005, 05:10 PM

Because I have a ton of responsibility and it's nice to get away from that now and then.

wannabenakid247 · 03-04-2005, 09:51 AM

It chills you out helps to relax i find but its best not to smoke too much or you just turn into a waster.

wsuprincess · 03-04-2005, 02:28 PM

This is really interesting to me. I've never seen people who smoke pot actually say why they do it. I personally don't. The smell makes me sick, the taste makes me sick, and it bores me. I get tired after about 10 minutes and just fall asleep. But this is still interesting.

biznatch · 03-05-2005, 11:37 AM

Yup, the thing about pot is it has very different effects on different people who try it. Some people will really not have a good time....the important thing is to take the time to relax, lay back and enojy the ride.

yvan_eht_nioj · 03-05-2005, 04:27 PM

I started smoking weed because I had heard of a magical place inside my mind that became instantly unlocked. It was true, for the most part, and I liked the out-of-body sensation pot gave me. I don't, however, like how it destroys my long term memory and real-time situation-evaluation (like, I'll hardly have any idea what's going on around me). It's a nice escape, whether alone or with a group of friends.

biznatch · 03-06-2005, 09:35 AM

oh....I lose short term memory...like I forget what happened 10-15 seconds ago..

wolf · 03-06-2005, 05:32 PM

I smoked because I wanted to relax, I tend to get stressed out easily.

kramus · 03-06-2005, 06:04 PM

You know how you drive down a back country dirt road that has major ruts like 6-8 inches deep and your tires sit in them and jerk the wheel and the car jumps around and there is all this noise and grinding and stuff, and you are not enjoying the driving in those goddam ruts? So you smoke a joint. The wheels lift out of the ruts and the ride is smooth and you can hear the tunes now and the day looks brighter because you can spare some attention to its beauty instead of worrying about your tires getting all chewed up by the goddam ruts.

Also its a good excuse to enjoy chocolate. I always like to have an excuse to enjoy good chocolate. Or premium coffee. Know what I mean? Dude?

0energy0 · 03-06-2005, 06:41 PM

i see my roommate smoke and its funny when hes high or other friends. i prefer drinking. i never smoked because i made a vow that i would never smoke.

theguyondacouch · 03-06-2005, 06:51 PM

Pot makes me feel happy, no matter how shitty a day I've had. It helps me relax, which I have a rather difficult time doing otherwise. On a totaly different note, I haven't smoked in almost a month because of lack of money. oh well.

analog · 03-06-2005, 11:32 PM

Great stuff. I use it for very occasional recreation, but more for anxiety attacks.

I get really bad ones- chest tightens up, the works. Smoke a little, it goes away and stays away. If I don't smoke, the attack could be there for days.

lordpoopshank · 03-07-2005, 01:18 PM

music is just too good on weed

YES!...music is so much better while on weed...Bob Marley never sounds so close then when you're high...or some good trance...

03-10-2005, 03:49 AM

i hate the social connotation and what smoking it entails, but i can understand needing an altered state of conciousness and not being able to feel it without some kind of help.

FloydianOne · 03-10-2005, 03:17 PM

I completely understand why people smoke pot... I didnt understand in highschool, but there are some days now when I really wish I smoked or drank excessively just so I could escape my reality for just a few moments. The only reason I dont smoke is because well... I dont like the idea of inhaling smoke into my lungs... just doesnt seem natural.

Esoteric · 03-10-2005, 07:07 PM

Because it puts me in a real chill mood, makes me feel like I have no worries. Also, like a lot of other people said music is so much better high. I like to blaze up and sit back and listen to some Bob Marley or some old Atmosphere.

Starlight4 · 03-11-2005, 12:00 AM

The high feels wonderful. After a rough day, you could just smoke out and sit there watching something and have it be funny when it'd normally be ordinary. And food tasted sooooo good, too.

Citygal · 03-14-2005, 08:09 PM

I used to smoke pot a lot. It was mainly when my life was not going so well and I needed something to escape it. I would spend days out of it with other unemployed friends coz there was nothing better to do. We would eat things we would not normally consider. I don't think food tasted better, I enjoyed just the simple act of chewing and the textures that different foods created.

My best friend had a thing for this oily salad dressing that she would pour into a bowl and sop it up with some bread....but when straight, the stuff was repulsive! I remember driving home following another stoned friend, we were driving so carefully that a pedestrian overtook us...not good!
My life has since gotten much, much better and I find that I have no urge to smoke...it was offered to me on my hen's night but I just didn't feel like it. For me it was simply a way to escape from the direction of my life that I felt I had no control over...now I have control, so therefore no more escape is necessary.

Zephyr66 · 03-15-2005, 09:23 AM

Esoteric Tired Location: Florida	Because it puts me in a real chill mood, makes me feel like I have no worries. Also, like a lot of other people said music is so much better high. I like to blaze up and sit back and listen to some Bob Marley or some old Atmosphere. __________________ From a head full of pressure rests the senses that I clutch Made a date with Divinity, but she wouldn't let me fuck I got touched by a hazy shaded, God help me change Caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins

Citygal Upright	I used to smoke pot a lot. It was mainly when my life was not going so well and I needed something to escape it. I would spend days out of it with other unemployed friends coz there was nothing better to do. We would eat things we would not normally consider. I don't think food tasted better, I enjoyed just the simple act of chewing and the textures that different foods created. My best friend had a thing for this oily salad dressing that she would pour into a bowl and sop it up with some bread....but when straight, the stuff was repulsive! I remember driving home following another stoned friend, we were driving so carefully that a pedestrian overtook us...not good! My life has since gotten much, much better and I find that I have no urge to smoke...it was offered to me on my hen's night but I just didn't feel like it. For me it was simply a way to escape from the direction of my life that I felt I had no control over...now I have control, so therefore no more escape is necessary.
