Marijuana [Cannabis]

[Michael Scally MD]

Why research is biased against pot to focus on its harm and not its benefits.

In my congressional testimony, I aimed to contextualize marijuana’s effects.

Regarding the gateway theory, I agreed that the majority of cocaine and heroin users started out using marijuana first. But I also added a more important detail that is often omitted: The vast majority of pot smokers never go on to use harder drugs.

To call marijuana a gateway drug is illogical.

I also added context to marijuana’s addictive potential. During the hearing, it was correctly noted that about 9 percent of pot smokers would become addicted at some point in their life.

However, the fact that about 15 percent of alcohol drinkers and a third of tobacco smokers would become addicted over their lifetime was not mentioned until my testimony.

Yup also helps me not beat peoples asses on the daily

Ditto lol

Depends what you are going for.
Average Joe status, and smoking you are just in cruising mode...
Tactical application, long endurance training, counterproductive.

Gym and cannabis is a great combination!

I keep seeing this concept and as never being a "functional stoner", I always attributed - to be stoned is to vegetate, eat, and pass out. But I of course know those that smoke as a lifestyle. Now I am seeing those actually saying that being stoned actually INCREASES FOCUS for PHYSICAL CONSTRUCT like working out / that's interesting/ I may try it..

And at first I would also say that smoking pot would be the worst thing you could do for mental activities like learned, as it would just dumb you down to being a retarded zombie. But them/now I see folks indicating that IN FACT it makes them FOCUS HARDER of the mental task at hand and you have me changing my whole tought paradigm on the subject matter...//??

I agree. I used to have my most intense and focused workout while stoned. Here's the trick...I had to smoke and hit the weights within 10 minutes. My stoned workout were some of the most intense I've ever had. I would go in and just become that one muscle group for two hours. If I wasn't working out within 10 minutes, however, my workout was shot. So I pretty much had to take a hit (that's the other thing A hit) while pulling in the parking lot...which led to some funny looks.

workouts might also be determined by which strain you smoked, Satavia or Indica. Satavia has more of a racy kind of high and Indica is for mellowing out.

I'm not sure on that. I'm sure it varied. For me smoking always made me focused during physical activities (even yard work and cleaning). However once I stop, I'm done.

those are the 2 main strains, but you have high breeds now. which have different % of each to make it not to racy or to mellow, more racy with a little mellow or mellow with a little racy lol you get what I'm getting at

 

[Kubrick]

I hit 2 or 3 dabs before I go to the gym and it gets me focused! It also makes me eat like an animal. Without marijuana I would be at least 20 lbs less. The focus and hunger are incredible!

 

[BBC3]

Man!!!! Those are sum-fuk'dUP Scary ass avatars...>! And BTW the Michael Myers thing ROCKS. I've got this freggin MM head costume piece that is so damn "HALLOWEEN 1ish TRUE.." With every damn year that i keep it I start to realize how kick-ass it is... A buddy of mine once borrowed it to fuk his GF while wearing it... LOL ... But come to think I saw my daughters running around in it the other day and damn I don't know if I sanatized the bastard upon RETURN RECEIPT..

@HuckingFuge - PRY-TELL on that avatar. I even hesitate to pass judgement as I just can't be sure how REAL that IMAGE is... LOL.. But it CASTS this allure on some interpersonal level which I hope and prey ain't real....? And it's intention is to FREAK/// And it DOES Freak...!


@ArON - THATs good stuff..! I would imagine that is about right too/ with consideration for the "effects" realized from THC.. Cause I am thinking I would just about be off into whatever ELSE creeped into my tiny little mind if not going straight on in.. ALSO was chatting with a bro the other day who described some type of smoking device which resembled a cell phone (for lack of better description), and said it was some kinda unit which you could take a hit/puff from and ultimately did not wreak or tell the tale?? ANYONE ever heard..?

And NO/ being out of the smoking game for some time I don't get/please expound. After all we are ALL ANONYMOUS RIGHT..? LOL

Seriously, I need to know if you are preaching high Gospel, or "BroScience of Smoking"?? Cause that means A LOT if So. And in this case REALLY EITHER/OR has valid merit as THC is only birthing consideration from medical science now and making "Steroids" appear to be a beloved first born even...!! You would be saying that 2 main lines of refer exists in population. AND MAKE NO MISTAKE- I WOULD SUBSCRIBE TO THIS LOGIC... Cause I always denoted 3 or 4 perceived matriceeZZ of weed. That being the (1)make ya wanna shout Knee jerk high, the (2) make ya wanna eat and sleep COMO... Well I guess really then I have only perceived two main strains (as you said). The "make ya wanna shout" being the one that as you take a toke you can almost look down and watch yur cock start thumping around looking for twat to bang/"sex refer"... Am I gellin????

*** And DAMN MILLARD!, I am starting to see why some folks are complaining about the board. It's like some new software I am using in my professional field which has tweeked the shit out of my mind STARTING ASOF JAN 2014/ It killed me there worse - NWO level MUCH WORSE...! THE ISSUE is not that it does not work, but its a complete paradigm operational shift...!!! I can see the good in it, but its a hard change that old timers are going to piss and shout for a while about...! ITS A FUKIN TOUGH TRANSITION I AM HERE TO SAY...!

those are the 2 main strains, but you have high breeds now. which have different % of each to make it not to racy or to mellow, more racy with a little mellow or mellow with a little racy lol you get what I'm getting at

I hear you guys talking about that safes way to smoke is using a vapo?

I personally don't smoke, but my friend is looking to be more safe and all that.

how the shit does that even work? how would you even do that?

 

[BBC3]

On that line you say "VAPO" ?? Is that mis-type or technical name for device I am referencing?? yes, the little flat box type device the guy described to me DID INDEED sound like it was "vapor" type technology where the weed heats up just enough to release the THC, but never truly burns... I also recall him saying that you could not "smell" or detect what this device is for/ like it totally shielded all indications of pot...?

So are you saying its a VAPO? Or are you further asking as well? Put a link please if you do know what it is...

Vapo and vape are just slang words for vaporizer. You're talking about the right thing.

Yeah, sorry. Vapo for vaporizors. Are they the same thing as like e-cigs?

Are vaps that things you can put flavor drops in them?

But thats crazy if you can put pot in there without high odor.

They make them for marijuana too. It heats the weed up without burning it, causing vapor rather than smoke. What I use takes a wax made from marijuana. It's highly concentrated.

@BBC3 that is a real kid in my Avatar.

Vaporizers get hot enough to vaporize the tricoms off the plant, but not hot enough to burn the plant. making edible is another good option if who ever doesn't want to smoke marij. do not put any ecig bull shit in a vaporizer. you can do as Kubrick says with the wax, but most States wax is outlawed.

Thanks for the expung and detail...

Yea, cute kid.. I got a couple myself. Its HARD to see avatars CLEARLY a lot of times when the publish as smaller for some reason/ I have not figured that one out. Perhaps board internals have the ability to do that with theirs??!! So I KNEW there was a real element to that one, but the makeup job was so good - I WAS HARD TO TELL.. LOL My older child wants to be "scream" this year. That's kinda of a "social oxymoron" when kids that age are not supposed to see those movies, and then your kids say "everyone else has" .. I let them watch Parana years back and too early, and while it is GORY, its so UNREAL that it has a comical element - so I deemed safe with supervision. I think what really has my child wanting to be SCREAM this year is the Wayans brothers comedy version knock-off spoof of all the horror films - WHHHHHATZ UUUuuuuP..! LOL. Final closing thougts on that tangent is HOW DEMENTED a flick can be even if PG and via WARPING/SUBLIMINAL Implications in the Construct. This is a really dangerous area which asshole groups like DISNEY and their fucked up writers manipulate is some kind of Logic Worm Hole which evades lesser intelligence, and is allow to propagate and fuking HURT todays youth in a terribly potent and dangerous / potential serial killer manufacturing way. Someone should just gather up all the Disney writers and take them out back for a good beating...!

On the "ammo" for vapo devices I have never heard of "wax". Now if I do decide to get back into smoking, I have always wanted to make a TINCTURE. This is some kind of process where you simply soak the pot in high grain alcohol so that it kinda distills out the THC to "available format". You then ultimately let the alcohol evaporate out after a month or so then filter out the plant, and maybe add a thicker base like oil or something. but the eventual result is supposed to be an edible format I hear. Cause you cant just eat pot and get high without first getting it ready via some kind of heat../ I don't think...

Tincture is a good option.
