Why do you hate Marijuana?

How can you associate herb with a few assholes you met who smoked it?

That is like if I based my opinion of alcohol on the dirtiest winos I ever met.

People who smoke marijuana come from all walks of life.

This must be high school aged people who think this way who still need to pin everyone and their associated activity with some group lol.

Yeah I like football, but I don't like the "culture" of jocks it breeds.

I like "herb" but I heard Mikey D. smokes it and he is dirty!

All man.
 
I used to like pot till I read this thread. One think I never thought about before reading this but it is totally true is that there isn't any euphoria really. But it has also been quite a while since I smoked so maybe I'm just remembering it wrong.
 
Yeah, the best music came from people who abused Heroin.

Props to the cokeheads too though.

I love the taste and smell of weed. I hate being high though.
 
i hate the smell.

and i hate the idea of smoking anything.

plus, when a lot of guys do it together, you ever notice how their hair gets all mussed up? and they always look a little bit sweaty?

heee hee.

these are just my personal experiences. i've never done it before, but if someone baked me up a batch of brownies, i'd be more then happy to try. =)
 
1) I don't like the way it makes me feel, often I get anxiety reactions.

2) It takes a long time to clear your system in case of a piss test.

It seems like the majority of marijuana-haters hate marijuana because of the anxiety, or paranoia (one and the same?).

Your reasons?

Mine would just be that I hate the high - makes you feel uncomfortable, not any noticeable euphoria.
Ditto... I HATE the high. HATE it. Instantly shaves off 75+ IQ points and makes me feel like Butthead (or Beavis, take your pick). *That* is supposed to be recreational?

P.S. I too have had problems with weed induced anxiety/paranoia in the past (not any more, I'm a totally non-anxious person now). But which is it guys... does it chill you out, or give you panic attacks! Jesus, talk about confusion. It certainly cannot be both at the same time.

I smoked the shit non stop through High School. I think it might be responsible (better; the way I used it was responsible) for a lot of my geekiness and social awkwardness, to this day.
 
I don't hate marijuana. To me, it's kind of like that old friend. like your best buddy, that you don't chill with too much anymore. He's fun to party with, but on a daily basis his lack of motivation, rudeness, and shady demeanor can really become annoying. Like that one friend that never really grew up. He's your boy, one of your true close friends growing up. But as I moved on in life, i kind of grew apart from it.
I don't hate it. It'll always have a place in my heart. Pot is cool, its just not something i can do frequently (especially since i'm on probation :p )

Every style of music has good music. I think you are the one who's being naive, just because some style of music you don't like you say it sucks.
Same with saving trees and capitalism, try not to speak about things you don't know about mate. A real cokehead would have punched me in the face now for expressing my opinion, so I'm lucky I am safe behind my computer screen =D
I agree whole heartedly. I went to a jam-band festival last summer when I was listening to primarily NIN and other angry rock/industrial groups; but I had an absolute blast listening to Phil Lesh and other music I normally considered to be slow, boring, old-fart music because of the fun-loving, psychadelia-induced crowd. Music is completely subjective. I have recently gotten heavily into EDM but still remember thinking techno was irritatingly fast repetitive beats that got boring after a couple minutes. We just gotta respect the fact that different taste in music does not mean "your music is utter shit".

I will aknowledge that stoners are boring as hell for people who don't smoke pot; but I love pot. Getting high is like some kind of beautiful temporary brain damage for me. When I smoke weed I get to be stupid, spacy, and blissfully oblivious to the worries and problems in my life. Some days it seems I get more euphoria from the stress relief provided by marijuana than directly from the effects of the drug. Pot works as an emotional stabilizer for me; when I smoke I know how I will feel for the next several hours and the pattern is very comfortable and familiar. I don't need to worry about manic mood swings that are a result of me fucking up my happy chemicals with hard drugs. My feelings follow a nice predictable pattern: I know I will be high, then get tired and burnt out and then regain my energy and some clarity of thought...unless I smoke more somewhere along that path.=D

I love mary J so I'm going to complain about cocaine instead of marijuana just for shits. For starters, who the hell wants to spend an enormous amount of money on a drug that requires redosing every 15-20min just to continue feeling good? Even if you're getting a great deal on the blow it still never lasts long enough. My arms/veins couldn't take a regular coke habit. Glad I was able to wait at least 4hrs between shots normally when I used meth.

The last time I really did cocaine was just lame. An eight-ball went into my arms between 10:30pm and 3am. When it was gone I realized that the drinkers out in my apartment living room where still awake and energetic; but I was completely spent unless I got something more for my needle. It was lame as hell that I was already out and I wanted to go to bed and the drunks were still up and about. I also realized if I had spent that money on meth I could have stayed high and feeling great for at least a couple days. I haven't paid for cocaine since...

Ummm...yeah: (/¯¬ _¬)/¯

Because ignorance is bliss? I know you know that statement is very true. Becoming ignorant to the problems and stress in my life is amazing. That temporary IQ reduction is why I smoke. Allows my mind to escape itself via spacing out in front of a videogame, TV or movie. I find it extremely recreational to be able to forget/minimize my problems in life by smoking a plant. Though I've never experienced the paranoia/anxiety some associate with marijuana...it's always a calming, relaxing and sedating experience for me. I feel sorry for people that have panic attacks and the like when they smoke pot.

Stop making blanket statements man. Some people don't like the MJ high, alot do. There are many people that love the high, I'm one of them. MJ doesn't erode IQs, granted many of the people YOU have met have limited intelligence, but that is not true of all MJ smokers. Just because it made YOU dumber, doesn't mean it is the same for everyone that smokes. YOU, apparently, don't like it, don't make a blanket statement because it affects you negatively.

I could say the same for stims, but you don't see me spouting negativity about stims, do you? Different people like different highs, stop sitting on your high horse.
 
If the topic here is going to be the social stigmas you attach to your own behavior and self-image, I'll play along with the stupidity and insecurity. I honestly don't see why everyone has to associate cannabis with the burnout-hippie-pacifist-Rasta image. There have been quite a few intellectuals and various other notably non-apathetic figures who smoked (didn't George Washington farm hemp for recreational use as well as its fiber?) as well as countless subcultures (hip hop, junglists, punks, almost any kind of metalheads...) that advertised or at least were/are well known for heavily involving pot.
 
Music and drugs do come hand in hand, but suggesting that a pot smoker can't enjoy Elton John and a coke user can't listen to some Marley is stupid.

Having a big enough ego that you have to look down on fellow drug users because of their choice of tunes and culture makes you look obsessed with yourself and your own choices, with no room to grow as a person.

Open yer fuckin' minds and take yer heads out of yer asses.
 
i only like it if i am alone, for all the reasons stated. total cliche... paranoid, stupid idiot. i mean, i can do a few hits of mdma and lsd together and still be able to talk to someone and feign sobriety. but one hit off of a joint and i am a blabbering moron. which is fine....alone.

but i am such a tool, i still do it every time when offered.
 
I don't get this thread. I never get anxious, paranoid, stupid, or lazy when I get high. People rarely even notice if I am high. In fact, I'll be more inclined to sit down and read a book when I'm high than when I'm not.

Only negative aspect - it costs money
 
I hate it marijuana because it beckons me. I get high, if you can call it that anymore but it only lasts so briefly then it's gone and I just feel 'normal' again. It's also hard on the lungs (vs not smoking at all).

Granted, I still LOVE smoking pot and probably will everyday as long as I can.. But the short high I get and the urge to keep smoking more to chase a decent high gets old. I think I need to take a break for a couple weeks or something and see if that helps tolerance wise. It's so hard though when everywhere you go you're offered pot.
