Marijuana

To all of you who think weed is the devil- If you haven’t tried it, we don’t expect you to understand. You can’t criticize something you don’t understand.

I love guys like weedkiller. They really prove the point that a little knowladge is a bad thing. First, you might have seen “CT” scans, or computated topography, not “cat” scans…but you sure as hell didn’t see any type of metabolic activity in them…they are purely anatomical. PET scans, and newer dynamic MRI scans can show activity. Secondly, many of the studies referenced are somewhat flawed in measuring cognative decline/impairment in long term users (for Weedkiller, that means “brain no workie”). The most recent study (in a JAMA issue from last month) was the largest of it’s kind, blah, blah, blah, and it was flawed in the since that it measured cognition after a 48 or 72 hr washout period in chronic users (again, “no smokie the weed”). The totally doen’t allow for a true wash out period since the half life of cannabinoids in the system can be days depending on chronicity of use. This is like measuring reaction time when someone is still drunk, and saying that drinking results in long term impairment of reaction time. Anyway, I’ll digress, and allow Weedkiller to go back to stuffing banannas in his mouth and swinging from the trees.

Any time you start a thread like this you are going to get a ton of different responses. You are most likely not going to get the answer to your original question, but you will get a bunch of know it alls giving you their view on the subject when they actually don’t know jack crap. Although MJ is illegal and you probably shouldn’t do it, I say do it right. Smoke some weed, spray on some andro, drink some protein shakes, snort some cocaine, take some X, shoot up some heroin, shoot up some deca, test, windex, toilet water and whatever else you can find. Take as much illegal stuff as you can in one night and let us know how it turns out. Good luck…may the force be with you.

When did I say it showed metabolic activity? Whose post where you reading? Oh, I’m sure you can find flaws in just about every study. I bet a crackhead can find flaws (or claim to) in studies related to crack being addictive or whatnot. What’s with the (smoakie the weed) crap? Is that your idea of clever discourse? Try harder. Try real hard. Damn man, you’re just not funny. And I’m not saying that just because it was directed toward me. If something is funny I’ll admit it. That was just dumb though. For future reference don’t try to use wit in your posts, cause you just can’t pull it off. I’m not trying to be mean, but I was actually embarressed for you.

By the way, you talk as if a three day “washout” period is no big deal. That’s three days of impairment. You only convinced me more on my own position. If someone is willing to do that to themselves they’re an idot.

all i got to say weedkiller is the facts are out there. unfortunately for your emotionally charged position, science is mostly against you.
