He seems to be trying to disagree with anything you say whether there's a basis for it or not.

Ya he is just one of those MacNN ding-a-lings. Like I care about his approval though so he can go nuts.

Nice to know trying to discrediting me is that important to him, he must be threatened by me.

Me, never.

Booze... all the damn time.

Ditto. I've been confused while high, but never angry.

I was wondering the same thing. When I'm high I either:

1. Watch a movie, eat lots of food
2. Play videogames, eat lots of food
3. Listen to music, eat lots of food
4. Go see a concert, eat lots of food
5. Cook or bake food, then eat a lot of it
6. Paint, eat lots of food
7. Eat lots of food, wander around the city.

I'm never driving, doing anything dangerous, or anything I can think of that would get me into trouble.

Same here. When I am high it is like being a kid again and you get overly excited at the suggestion of making cookies.

It takes time to compile information and come up with conclusions.

You need to stop trolling SWG.

Right, you muppets.

My comment was merely attempting to illustrate that this is old news, and that the New Scientist aren't exactly being on the ball.
Here's an excerpt from the report:

Perhaps the strongest indicator of discontent over the current ABC classification system came in January 2006, when the then Home Secretary, Rt. Hon. Charles Clarke, announced that he would be undertaking a root and branch review of the ABC system.

So, this debate has been going on for ages, like I said. I've known about these results for quite a while.

Nothing to do with trolling SWG. If you actually notice what I was replying to, you'll see that it was the words and URL of the article - not SWG's words (which were specifically edited out). Moreover, you'll notice that I didn't actually give an opinion about the content of the report and thus didn't agree or disagree with whatever stance SWG is taking.

So, you know, go screw yourselves. Idiots.

You do, obviously. Else you wouldn't have launched an offensive at my comment.

Athens · Aug 17, 2006, 11:06 AM

every one I know that gets high, including my roommate and myself, its all about chilling. When drunk, thats when we all end up in trouble usally.

Sure looks like an offensive to me. You launch with the name-calling then imply that I must be threatened by you. I mean, how is that not an offensive?

If you think that my posting a comment about the New Scientist's lack of timeliness is somehow discrediting you, you need to get yourself off to see a shrink. Really.

Why would I feel threatened by you, outside of you gaining 150 lbs and sharing a prison-shower with me? I happen to agree with the report.

You've made this into something it's not. As usual. Now, that's either because you have difficulty with reading comprehension (in which case go see about some community college classes) or you have paranoia (in which case go see the aforementioned shrink). Or both.

Dude, I am settled down. But I ain't gonna let folks get away with posting sh!t about me simply because they can't read properly.

I don't drink or do pot. Try again. I'm thinking like ya, totally good example of someone who can read properly vs someone who can't.

So you're still getting all defensive towards me when I didn't give a **** and Gossamer started it.

Way to prove the point he made even more

Right. So you didn't call me a "ding-a-ling" (whatever that is)? So, having not called me that, there's no need for me to get defensive towards you. OK. Whatever you say.

Landos Mustache · Aug 17, 2006, 12:16 PM

Finished? Or still feel threatened?

If you called me a ding-a-ling I wouldn't care. Just like I don't care that this study is 6 months old.

If you carry on I don't care either so whatever knocks your socks off..

you should smoke a J, might do you some good

Ali-g on drugs! YouTube - Ali-G Drugs

By the way, LSD is as non-toxic as you can get.
Weed in small quantities is also not a problem. If you smoke once a day, it does become problematic though.

It is NOT true that Ecstasy is "soft" on your health.

Alcohol and cigarettes. The worst drugs I've taken in my whole life. Cigarettes give me day-long headaches and alcohol makes me sleepy.

sek929 · Aug 18, 2006, 12:28 PM

LSD stays in your brainstem and can cause latent episodes many years aftre the initial use. It can also trigger schizophrenia.

Shrooms are far safer than acid.

There is no medical evidence that LSD stays in your body.

What the latent episodes you are describing seem to affect 0.1 to 1% of the users.

see HPPD Online.

sek929 · Aug 18, 2006, 12:48 PM

I stand corrected Ambush, after checking Erowid it seems all the LSD is metabolised out of your system faster even than psylocibin.

King Bob On The Cob · Aug 19, 2006, 04:10 AM

But you can always tell a pot smoker in postmortem observation. (It grays the brain according to my physics teacher, the same one who would tell us things like "never carry a knife that's bigger than 12 inches or carry more than 999 grams of cocaine, otherwise it's a felony rather than a misdemeanor")

sek929 · Aug 19, 2006, 04:15 AM

999 grams?!!

What?

One ounce of coke will get you in big trouble.

According to my teach, if you don't have a kilo, they won't be able to get you with the "intention to distribute" which makes it a felony.
