Joints...replacing cigarettes?

I was talking to one of my friends who is still in high school(i graduated last year) and he described to me how all the cool kids were smoking pot. i agreed with him because i saw a couple of goodie-goodie preppy girls at the cigarette store buying a pot pipe. i know that we teens have our statements, most of which boil down to "we don't care if we die at 30", but is this really the latest thing, smoking weed? used to be all the cool outcast non-athletes smoked cigarettes...now i've been told they just smoke weed. i always thought weed was more for the burnout crowd...like me...but i guess it's cool now!(but i didn't get the memo) beyond the legalization of marijuana(see other thread), since kids really don't care if it's legal or not, does anyone else see the trend of pot gaining in popularity? anyone else see the drug dogs in the parking lots of our high schools? doesn't the lack of trust in teens build up the need to rebel against anything and everything? is anyone else seeing something wrong with the picture of watching cheerleaders buy a pipe? and not a corn-cob piece either.

hell, maybe i only think pot has risen in popularity because i've met more people who smoke.

yeah i know there's a marijuana verses cigarettes thread somewhere else but this is a little different.

u seem young and people are probably just starting to experiment. once ur 25 like me, everyone will either smoke or not, alot do!

Life just keeps getting easier and easier for the people who don't get high it seems.

maybe it's not that cheerleaders are becoming pot heads, maybe the potheads became cheerleaders or the goodie-goodies have began to indluge themselves. what i mean is that you have to get over your expectations of particular groups of people. the concept that "cheerleaders/jocks, don't smoke pot" is dumb. people are people and they do what they're gonna do wether they're cheerleaders, jocks, or chess club members. don't worry so much about what the "cool kids" or the "dorks" are doing and do your own thing, whether or not it involves pot. and it's certainly not a new thing, people, kids included, have been smoking weed since forever, in all demographics.

Oh yes the "cool" kids are the pot smokers. :grinno: :lol:

If they're goodie goodie preppy girls they won't be at the cigarette store. Once that happens they move up to the high school level of dirty slut.

oh my god, give me a break. Thats so not true.


They've only taken the first step.

that is so wrong, when I was in high school I was a cheerleader that smoked pot and drank. that did not make me a dirty slut. I was verry clean!!! :biggrin:

pot=slut? sorry but thats like saying if u were in a porn store, ur a killer?doesnt make sense.what does pot have to do with sex?in my case i combine the 2 together, but thats just me!

Been going on since the dawn of time. Nothing new.

Oh yes the "cool" kids are the pot smokers. :grinno: :lol:


how about "popular" instead of "cool"?

i used to smoke. I thought it made me look cool. Until i realized it made my breath stink like what ever it was I smoked. Cant pick up women that way...

O yeah I work at a place that sells oxygen. Yes OXYGEN. I'd say about 80% of oxygen customers are or were smokers. You may not care about how long you live, but you would when you realize how much money you waste on oxygen (sometime that should be free but like a gift when you break it or lose it, you have to pay for it) . EVEN after/if your health insurance pays. Think...weed/cigs+oxygen when your lungs can't pull in enough on its own anymore+shortened life expectancy=why did I think I was cool when I was younger?

The thing about the slut remark is a whole lot of the girls at my school who smoke pot are the biggest whores on earth. So it seems to me that if some preppy girl smokes pot, chances are she's becoming a slut.

At the schools i went to i'd say over 80% of people smoked weed... so definately, the jocks, the nerds, the popular crowd, the gangster crowd, everybody smoked it. It's not something thats exclusive to any group...

well, everyone in my highschool that drove a mustang was a homosexual. so it seems to me that if you drive one, chances are you're going to take one up the pooper.

Great logic there. All girls that smoke pot are whores. :rolleyes:

People at my school who smoke pot are looked down upon, Cant say i have any pity for them. Waste of money and lungs.

ya, i guess all us potheads are a bunch of losers. :headshake

Seems to me you've seen the "rear end" of Mustangs several times while racing them.

Not all of them but most of them. These girls have no problem breaking the law by smoking this stuff so they usually are big drinkers. So they go to parties to get stoned and drunk but they also don't mind sleeping with four or five guys while they are there.

The other girls that aren't sluts but smoke pot are usually the weird girls that hang out with the gothic people.

:rolleyes: that's typical. no, i was just trying to show you that saying marijuana smoking leads to promiscuity is as arbitrary a comparison as saying drving a mustang leads to homosexuality.

just more stupid, meaningless generalizations.

do you ever break the speed limit or litter, or jay walk? then you don't have a problem breaking the law either, still doesn't make you a pot head.

Dude, you need to provide some evidence that links high school girls who smoke pot to being "dirty sluts," or shut the hell up. Seriously, generalizations like that are the cause of things like racism, sexism, ageism, just discrimination and bigotry in general. There's no need for that shit here.

But anyways, back on topic, I don't think weed is any more popular now than it has been in the past. You only realize how many people smoke when you start doing it yourself. You get exposed to a whole new reality of potheads.

and we brake for mustangs. :lol2:

I think Mustans "brake" in general...no pun intended

In my school most of my friends are potheads.
I live in the ghetto of a expensive town (lots of rich peaps here). All the kids of rich people do drugs, kids from rich families are also popular. So this is what comes up popular=rich=weed user.
Even though so many of my friends do drugs (my sister including, and she is not a dirty whore) I have never tried anything besides cigarettes. I don't even drink alcohol, well maybe some good beer with salty dried out fish, mmmmm.
I don't do drugs because I like my life and want my plans for it to become real. Some may call me a goodie-goodie boy but I don't really care, the last drug I do want to try are shrooms. Always was facinated by it and think it is worth a try.

Just because you do drugs at some point in your life doesn't mean you can't get where you want to be. I was a big pothead for a while, and I pull in good grades in college now. I gotta say, if you want to try mushrooms, you should definitely smoke grass first. That is a big jump if you haven't dealt with any sort of reality distorting drugs of any kind beforehand. :2cents:

^hell yeah, if you eat shrooms first YOU WILL FUCKING DIE DUDE! j/p.


but for real, i wouldn't recommend it. it'd be a real rough night.

keep ur schedule free for week!lol, alot of people that skipped weed cause they thought it was bad, went straight to coke and e etc....now there crackheads and i say see, pot aint so bad is it. by that point they smoke weed anyway cause theyre so fucked up from coke and shit.

seems like potheads have an easier time getting of the harder stuff though. maybe its because they got something to fall back on. in the end though, its all about getting your priorities strait. if you go and work and have your bills paid and whatnot, have at it. and there are many manymany succesful people with substance abuse problems....everybody has a vice, some are just worse than others.
