Why is it that the only thing that people who smoke weed want to talk about is weed? Honestly, it seems like the number one thing on their agenda is figuring out why I don't smoke it. Does it really matter to you that much? I just don't. Geez. I used to smoke every day in high school, and then I got sick of stoner culture and decided to quit. Now I don't even think of being high as a good feeling, I'd rather be sober. So please stop asking why I don't smoke, I just really don't like being high anymore.

For some people it's just an amazing experience and wish to share it with the world that so harshly demonizes it. But they also get over it and only talk to other stoners about it. You're not an underage straight edge hanging out with stoners, are you?

>smoke weed in HIGH SCHOOL >expect anything other than juvenile discussion about weed You're projecting your experiences. Also, why wouldn't the activity you're engaging in, one that happens to be illegal, be one of the first topics for discussion for many people. >people at the gun range just want to talk about guns waaaaaaa People talk about other shit, maybe it's just you have nothing to contribute to the conversation

>>4008705 I'm in college currently. I guess I was a stoner in high school, and all my friends were too. Eventually though I just didn't like smoking anymore. I still love all my friends, but only one of them understands why I don't like to smoke. And she's the one with terrible social and seperation anxiety who only gets paranoid and twitchy when she's high, so she hates it as much as I do now. It just seems like I can't escape all of the people asking me why I don't smoke. I don't even talk to those friends anymore since I'm at a college several states away. But even here, not a single person understands how I could possibly not like being high. Like it's just unfathomable to them. Even on r9k theres a post every single day about "Why don't you smoke weed?", or "if weed was legal, would you smoke it?". It just annoys me is all.

The way I look at it is if you are college age and still a Stoner it's awkward as feck! It's best left after you leave highschool and Grow up!

I once decided that I'll never use drugs, I don't see any reason to do so either. I've never understood people who try to GET other people to use drugs. I don't have any issues with people using them, it's their decision. Some people smoke weed just to - well - smoke it. For no reason, just to pass time. My wife tried smoking pot once and said it was boring and felt like nothing special, which makes me even less interested. I'm not straight edge either though, I sometimes drink alcohol, but not to get drunk, all I get is a slight tipsy that hinders my motor functions. I've enjoyed hanging out WITH drunk people just as well sober as I have intoxicated. So why do stoners insist on others doing it? What I've been thinking too, OP. If you can't function without a brain stimulation that sounds like your problem, but I've never had an issue being sober around other people.

>>4008863 Weed is a social drug. Smoking by yourself, unless you listen to a really good album or something, is just boring. Plus if it was her first time, your wife probably didn't inhale right or she got shitty weed.

>>4008876 How is weed like cutting yourself? What the fuck are you on about? I really don't see how you can mock 'stoner logic' when you're own logic makes even less sense.

I usually just smoke some to after i've had a stressful day and just want to take my mind off everything and relax. I agree though, OP. 420errydaylolXD culture is fucking stupid.

>>4008902 All you do when you get high with yourself (unless you have a good album or other entertainment) is sit around being high. Being high by itself isn't that amazing unless you're like 16.

>>4008921 I'm in my twenties and have been smoking weed for years. It's relaxing and takes your mind of whatever shit you have going on, that's not only a trait that 16 year olds can enjoy. I sat home all day watching football and chilling with my dog and weed made it 10x better. Whatever though man.

>>4008926 I've only known a few others, and they're all generally happy people and don't get defensive when asked about it. Granted, if she walked up to you, looking to score some weed, she's probably not right in her head to begin with.

>>4008951 That's not an answer. I don't get why you're so defensive about it. Just say "I don't really like it that much" or "My daddy molested me". You're seriously weird dude.

>>4008951 >by itself >by myself Same diff in this context. Weed (I think) isn't that amazing by itself, and is much better with friends. So, do you not like weed because you don't have friends to enjoy it with? This is /r9k/, you can tell us. It's not like it's abnormal to not have friends here.

>>4008956 I already told you it's not for everybody. If you haven't figured it out, I meant it's not for me. That's the answer. I already explained why. See this is exactly what OP meant. You're instigating on something as simple as weed not being for everybody. Why does every stoner act like a pusher? You looking to sell weed that bad or something?

>>4009002 t's not for me. Why can't you accept that as an answer? Weed is not for me for a multitude of reasons, one of them being the fact toxins have little to no effect on my body, so it's a waste of money. That's just reason number one. >>4009007 So basically what you're saying is that smoking weed is irrelevant and having friends is more important. So why the fuck the need to smoke weed, when you can just hang out with friends?

Weed is good shit. Used to smoke every day. Now I only smoke every first weekend of the month. You don't smoke? That's fine with me. You won't try it? That's fine with me. You tell me I shouldn't? Go get fucked.

>>4009060 This is pretty much the right attitude. It also goes both ways, you can't question someone else why they don't smoke either.

>>4009066 Exactly. I don't drink and when people ask me if I do, when I say no they don't fly off the handle asking me why not, so why should I badger people about pot? "WHY DON'T YOU DO THINGS THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO DO?" - My friends to every non-smoker friend.
