POT
If you smoke it, you life will spiral down into a black hole from which there is no return……or you could just end up governing California.

I hear Terminator 4 is going to suck. Thoughts?
Oh, and nice shirt.
Good lord, people!
*crickets*
The movie opens in SEVEN days, and nobody’s got NOTHIN?
*has a sad*
Eh, it isn’t like I plan to watch it any time soon… So no, I got nothing.
Double negative.
*kills it*
I did that on purpose, whippersnapper.
Double negatives= my pain…
You are cruel
Cruel to be kind
Almost a theme song for BDSM…
It’s an actual song from the seventies (in case you didn’t know).
Link.
Nice timing award goes to HST and MG!!!!!
Love that cheeseball song!
Ya… That is what prompted my statement…
I figured…
A Nick Lowe Classic…{linked for your viewing and listening pleasure}
N B4 U!
Except that i can say I’ve seen him live with Elvis costello….CAN U SAY THE SAME?? HMMM…HMMMM?
*takes one internet from yesterday off shelf*
*dusts*
*hands to MG*
We have a winner!
Now that’s awesome.
It was an acoustic show at Ohio University back in the late-80’s. Everyone was there to see Elvis costello, and when Nick Lowe came out onstage to open, everyone kinda stood around for four or five songs, like “Who the f%^k is this guy?” until he started playing Cruel to be Kind…then everyone was like “Oh yeah…THAT guy…”
That’s teh awesome.
I caught Mother Love Bone in a bar in Seattle like that once… like “who the F*^%????”
A few years later, WAH LAH. Grunge.
Do you suppose DWN watched and went into a diabetic coma and is now unable to respond?
Nope, just had actual work to do.
no thanks.. we have a theme song… we prefer … Hurts So Good …….
)
Well, I figured it wasn’t “Unchained Melody.”
Devo’s “Whip It”?
I’ve always been partial to pretty much half of what NIN puts out…
NIN JA tour FTW!
“March of the Pigs!”
*adds another reason to the list of reasons to love HST*
Garsh.
*loves DWN back, but is uncomfortable with PDAs*
How ’bout them Yankees?
I wouldn’t know, I don’t do self mutilation. How’s your family?
only if you’re wearing the awesome red “hats”.
Hey pig, ye-eah you. Hey pig piggy pig pig pig
Brain bleach thought of the day: Is that his O face?
If you smoke it, they will come. Or you will. Somethin’.
Ordinarily I’d take this as a head’s up for a pun run
but I’m running fellate for a lunch meeting I can’t blow off.
Oral sex puns suck.
Now that I am horny, this day is gonna blow…
Hope your day isn’t too hard on you.
Woody be so lucky!
Pitty, you are such the cunning linguist…
I haven’t the slightest idea twat you are referring.
Bare a@@ her again, MG.
That’s because she’s such a master debater. Now if you’ll excuse me, I haven’t brought my lunch today, so I’ll be eating out.
Pardon me, I didn’t want to interruptus your lunch; but I have a probing question to ask…Are you a member of the Johnson family?
Private First Class Richard “Dick” Johnson at your service, madam…
These puns are becumming more cockamamie with each post!
I’ve had just about a muff of it myself.
Well if you wouldn’t always dive right in head-long…
But I’m addicted to chick clit!
Now, there’s no cooze for alarm. If you were on your way out to McDonalds fur burgers, you go right a head.
But my vulva’s out of gas.
I’ll either skip it orgasm up at the pump.
You know, you’re really stretching it now. And by ‘it,’ I mean ‘vagina.’
Look! It’s Seth on POT!
ROFL!
In recent comments, EVERYONE’S on POT!
Have you ever read PK, man? Yeah? But have you ever read it… on POT?
Worst part is, my father-in-law’s name really is Richard Johnson…
And now we’ve got herb on POT! That’s redundant! That’s like a meat on meat sandwich or something.
ok, that gave me the gaggles.
You know, you could always head for the head for some head…
Pot. It is less harmful than aspirin and less addictive than cigarettes. Stoned people do not pick fights, unlike drunk people. Pot is an analgesic, anti-nausea, and anti-depressant. It’s a weed that grows anywhere and produces useful fiber and seeds. It is a schedule 1 drug, like crack and heroin. WTF, people?
I don’t make the rules or smoke so I don’t know what to tell ya.
THANKYOU
Nixon began the list. The dirty hippies had to be stopped somehow…
i get everything you’re saying despite never having used it myself. but what is “schedule 1″?
-
and if “schedule 1″ pairs it with crack and heroin, i think that might not be something i’d stress. those two drugs seem to cause a lot of damage to the human body, unlike pot.
“Schedule 1″ is what they are classified as by bureaucrats, not a physical effect classification. It is a completely arbitrary designation put in place by the self-righteous and retentive. And no, I do not smoke pot and have no vested interest in its legalisation. Though I live in Canada and can smoke if I want, so even less vested interest in US drug policy.
i posted a reply to you a while back. and it was a good one. it had a link so i think PK ate it.
essence of the post: thanks for the info. CNN had an interesting story this morning about the increased potency in pot and how it’s affecting people.
Actually, the pot they tested to get an idea of the THC concentration of pot from the 70’s and 80’s was stored in evidence lockers. Evidence lockers are generally not climate controlled, therefore any information gained from them is faulty. To be truthful more potent pot is better, because it would take less to get a person high, and they would have to smoke less, which lowers their exposure to carcinogens.
Hahaha, to any veteran pot user, this is to laugh. We all learned to titrate our dose within a few months. Stronger pot? Puff, puff, wow, I’m good, thanks. Weaker pot? Puff, puff, puff, puff, (cough) puff, puff (cough) puff, I’m good, thanks. Smoking is such an immediate high, you know exactly how stoned you are getting as you do it, and potency means nothing.
Yeah I’ve seen some shows recently that were highlighting the change in pot in recent times. The high THC of skunk seems to be causing paranoia and other schizophrenic like symptoms. In one of the shows a woman went to Amsterdam to try different pot. She was not told what she was getting. When she smoked “regular” pot, she had a pretty typical high, but on the skunk she was very paranoid and jittery.
recent times? lol… growers have been increasing the thc since forever – it was a big whoopty-do way back when i was in high school because it was so much stronger than the stuff from the generation before and would cause all sorts of psyc problems… of course that was before someone got the bright idea of lacing it with angel dust and other cr@p. i knew enough potheads that were so paranoid from constant use, it isn’t always the strength of the weed as much as the habitual serum level.
THC now is ~15% (in professionally grown weed).
At the beginning of the 20th century some company grew weed with almost 30% thc.
Paranoia and schizophrenic symptoms can only occur if it has been passed onto you from your parents/grandparents/and so on. If there is no such recording in your family tree you should be safe. Worst thing that can happen while smoking is that you fall a sleep.
Schedule 1 means that the drugs has no *accepted* medicinal (psychiatric or physiological) uses and therefore is illegal and it takes a hell of a lot of wheel greasing to even be allowed to study the damn thing.
LSD is a schedule 1 and it has shown to be effective in treating cluster headaches, which is a debilitating condition to patients who experience it.
MDMA (ecstasy) is a schedule 1 and is only recently being researched for it’s possibilities for phsychotherapy. Incidentally MDMA was put on schedule 1 as an “emergency ruling” by the DEA citing the lack of research on the drugs to put it on the list. Sadly, this ruling still stands and it’s hard to get a research permit for E because of lack of research. How bass akwards is that?
Heroin, while possibly the worst addictive substance, is clinically known as diacetylmorphine, which means it is a morphine derivitave. Many of the opioid drugs that are prescribed readily and regularly are just as addictive as heroin and some of them are far more potent (see fentanyl). These are given to chronic pain patients. While I’m not saying this makes heroin a good thing, it just seems silly that they make so many opioids for pain management and people become addicted to these drugs, why is heroin so stigmatized? I think it was the Vietnam war, many vets came back addicted to morphine and since the could no longer get a prescription for it turned to heroin. Detox from opioids is a disgusting, painful, wrenching experience and I would LOVE to see a study on people who become addicted to them and turn to heroin. Perhaps I will search the interwebs after this tirade.
At any rate. Pot has shown effective in many tests for people with glaucoma, cancer, effective in pain management etc. etc., yet the DEA says it still has no “accepted medicinal use”.
Old habits die hard.
/end rant.
See link in name for your handy guide as to what is scheduled as what.
*pout*
No one appreciates my useless trivia about DEA scheduling. All that knowledge for nothing. I’m using it for the next Ordinal Post I get to Rule.
Yes, I am in need of attention.
*huggles spanks huggles some more and gives ginger for use with the hubby later*
Any better hun?
Awwww tankee DWN that was most kind.
*huggles*
I got your back babe. *huggle*
i actually really appreciated the info. i just hadn’t been back to check it today.
i’m 100% clueless of the drug world. i’ve never used anything, never smoked even. i figure i’m on enough prescription medications that i’m not going to willingly put something ELSE in my body. so, when i ask questions about drugs i’m not being an a$$, i’m just trying to get caught up on the info.
Thanks!!! If you need to know about drugs, I’m your girl. Not just cause I’ve done a bunch but because I actually decided to educate myself about them. I have a nice big book about them, which includes prescription drugs.
I recently replaced yet another household copy of From Chocolate to Morphine – my ex found she couldn’t keep a copy in the house long enough to pass on to our 13 year old. Even her father stole a copy.
Mmmm chocolate morphine…
@charro {{{HUGGIES}}} have a brownie and a glass of homemade wine to wash it down.
love the rant, always love the trivia (you never know when a factoid will crush an opponent, *insert very evil grin & cackles here*
*hugs* I’m glad I could brighten your day.
More about Marijuana [Link] to Wiki article
Also during this time, Nixon commissioned the National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse—known as the Shafer Commission after its chairman, Raymond P. Shafer—to study marijuana abuse in the United States. During his presentation of the commission’s findings to Congress, Shafer recommended the decriminalization of marijuana in small amounts, saying, “[T]he criminal law is too harsh a tool to apply to personal possession even in the effort to discourage use. It implies an overwhelming indictment of the behavior which we believe is not appropriate. The actual and potential harm of use of the drug is not great enough to justify intrusion by the criminal law into private behavior, a step which our society takes only ‘with the greatest reluctance.”
*Nixon buried this commission’s findings and went on to sign the Controlled Substances Act.*
Wow here is something I didn’t know – Rohypnol (roofies) – which is illegal in the United States and is NOT used medicinally in the United States (known as the date rape drug) is a Schedule IV. Here is the definition of Schedule IV:
Schedule IV.—
(A) The drug or other substance has a low potential for abuse relative to the drugs or other substances in schedule III.
(B) The drug or other substance has a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.
(C) Abuse of the drug or other substance may lead to limited physical dependence or psychological dependence relative to the drugs or other substances in schedule III. Control measures are similar to Schedule III. Prescriptions for Schedule IV drugs may be refilled up to five times within a six month period.”
*headdesk and then has an idea…*
Hey Charro, want a drink?
PK does not approve of my links.
Funnily, I have intentionally mixed liquor and roofies before and nothing happened. I went home conscious and alone, woke up alone and lived by myself. I guess something could have happened but I was out all night and roofies take about twenty minutes to take effect and only last for four to six hours. I was partying longer than that.
But yes I would love a drink.
*gets you a drink* There you go Madam Vice President.
*gulp* Thank you kindly, Mr. President.
Not a problem, the jolt is some Spanish Fly idea that I had Rhorho come up with. Now, while it takes effect, I am going to get into this metal suit so you can’t savage me. I am just going to observe your actions.
*gets into metal suit and locks it*
Good thing I ate a bunch of roofies first.
Sleep humping is a phenomenon I have yet to observe.
*snore* *twitch* *mumble* Heaaaaaaaaaah?!
I think it was because someone wanted it to be illegal… some sort of fear campaign
blame hearst and the paper mills. that’s where it all started…
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA PK DOESN’T LIKE MY POSTS BECAUSE OF MY LINK!!!!!!!!
Ok, if three posts end up showing up my bads, but this is why mary jane is illegal. The Harrison stamp act passed in 1916 I believe, which banned narcotics and then the marijuana stamp act of 1937 banned pot. see linky. If this doesn’t work I give up.
Oh neat it finally worked.
It just needed a good freak out on your part. The gods of PK like us humble. And crazy sounding.
Yes, I needed a good freak out.
Ubr, that’s what I heard too. Marijuana is extremely cheap to manufacture, and was in danger of bankrupting paper and timber industries. Hence the ban.
yup. and the stamp act mentioned by charro is even weirder…
in order for you to legally possess marijuana you had to show up at the county court house and request a permit for said buds. the only way to get a permit was to have the marijuana on hand at the time of requesting the permit. so… they could arrest you for having the weed in the court house with no permit while you were waiting in line. a perfect catch-22.
Right, just like how for a while medicinal marijuana was legal but prescribing doctors would lose their license for prescribing it. Another Catch – 22.
PK does not approve of my history of pot links.
Just google “hemp industry and marijuana legality”
And it’s the third link down.
That’s bullshit…
Actually, it might be sarcasm but there is a definite chance of bullshit.
If you can get your mind off of defending pot fo a couple seconds, you’ll see that it’s a slam against Arnold and slightly against California rather than a slam against pot. Sheesh.
I fail to see the difference between the two options given.
Downward sipral…black hole…no return… isn’t that the same thing as the government of California?
(sigh) …SPIral… the CA public education system made me what I am today. Thanks, Prop. 13!
Oh please… more is being spent on CA education than ever. Prop 13 has nothing to do with your lack of education.
Actually, you are technically correct. The fact that the number of students has increased exponentially beyond the spending increases has nothing to do with it, of course. When I began school (just before Prop 13, so guess my age) CA was in the top 10 states for education funding. Now it’s 47th, and just cut it again. My kids are in LAUSD now, and their class sizes will be even larger next year, all of the teachers for my youngest daughter’s next grade have been canned and will be replaced by people who thought they had gotten out of the classroom and will be on pay cuts, so you can imagine their sunny outlooks…. Yes, so glad you are correct.
Yeah, pretty much. CA out of $ in 3… 2…
Or you could become President of the US…as long as you didn’t inhale it.
It should be legalized and made part of our country’s solutions instead of being part of the problem. Imagine the tax revenue!!!
“imagine how empty the jails would be” is the bigger issue. following closely behind is also “imagine how much more time cops would have to spend on real issues”.
Ya, imagine the boom business. Hell, there is already a lot being made on alcohol and tobacco. And it would make a lot of minor crime evaporate overnight.
while there is a lot of money being made on alcohol and tobacco, people assume that there is a lot MORE being made than actually is. whenever there is a tax hike on cigarettes people assume that all of a sudden the schools will have books and that the arts won’t die and everything. while every $0.02 on a pack of cigarettes adds up, it doesn’t do enough to offset the billions of dollars that the schools and arts (among others) actually need.
True, just because it is alot doesn’t mean it is enough.
… in bed.
(i had to. you set it up *perfectly*.)
It is what I am here for, love.
seems to me the profit would be in the product itself, not the perceived tax increases, there is a reason it’s called a cash crop
the gov’t would be involved in the growing & testing to maintain approved thc levels (employment) regulated & licensed farmers would have a new source of legal income, the paper pushers would have more applications/regulations/red tape (employment), legal distribution (employment), final distribution points: pharmacies, liquor store equivalents (employment) new security jobs for the product starting at the field and ending with sales to the consumer (more employment)
this would assume that the government would a) put that much effort into it and b) actually do it properly.
with the way things have been going they’d outsource the R&D and growing to china…
probably, especially since outsourcing to mexico is just too logical.
although the gov’t could be smart and just sell the weed they confiscate at the mex/us border…
you used government and smart together… you’re funny!
*headdesk*
smart government ranks right there next to military intelligence, what a doofus i am
You can’t spell doofus without food us.
that explains my ijitness – no food; at this point i could say ‘in us’ but that is skirting close to the royal we, and that is a mite pretentious (and dare i say elitist?) so i will use the plebian ‘me’
The problem isn’t that the money isn’t being raised. The problem is that it’s not being spent efficiently.
Yeah, like cops setting up elaborate and expensive stings to catch two consenting adults who meet to have sex for a price other than the socially acceptable ones (porn contract, wedding ring, expensive gifts, etc.)
Ya bartering for sex is still legal…
It’s called the “marriage contract.”
Or dating.
Or even just hooking up.
Ass, gas or grass, baby!
Yep, I’ve heard that one before.
Dude, I live it. Mom’s really demanding.
There’s incest spray mentioned on Failblog in the vote section, perhaps you should pick up a case?
It made it to the front page after I used it on YOUR mom…
Doubtful, she only dates Mexicans and you stink of Whitey.
That’s cracker to you, burrito-humper
Sh!tfire. That shulda said “sonuvaburritohumper!”
O_o
Who are you talking to? Nobody here but this long haired French/German/Cherokee/misc descended dude here.
Heinz 57, myself…
Actually, Obama says he *did* inhale. “That was kind of the point”, I believe was the quote.
That he did, however Clinton said he didn’t inhale.
I was referring to Clinton about the lack of inhaling.
Um, Obama admits he inhaled
(“…that was the point…”)
*or ya might become a gold-medal winning champion…
(decreased potential? the f*ck, was he supposed to become an actual dolphin??)
um, oops.
*I looked ahead a LITTLE…
Actually, the past three presidents all have admitted to smoking pot, so the didn’t inhale doesn’t really apply.
i hear they are “looking into” the legalization and HEAVY taxation of marijuana here in california….the state gov’t could be making a TON of money here off stoners….not to mention the fast food industry…and Doritos. I suggest investing in lave lamps.
Talk about economic stimulus! time to get stimulated…i think i might go get stimulated right now *winkiewinkienudgienudgie*
sooo….what’s the difference anymore?
its not even weed, you can see the filter, its a cigarette
Way to piss in the cornflakes, dooshbag!
Actually, this is a screen shot from a 1977 film called Pumping Iron. After he takes a puff he explains how he prefers to smoke a marijuana cigarette after a hard workout to relax his muscles.
Was Franz anywhere around during the shooting of this film?
Sweet!
Michael Phelps for Governor!
Maybe this can help explain how much of a whore he is now?
He’s lost all credibility in my book after his recent shenanigans!
He wants to sell the LA Coliseum, a State and National Historic Monument on park land basically, something he doesn’t ‘own’ and has NO RIGHT to even offer for sale!
Much less finding a buyer – can’t take down the building, as it is a historic monument, and even if you could, you can’t build anything on the lot as it’s on park land!
I suppose he’s still smokin’!!!
Meh, downward spiral into darkness, governing California… pretty much the same thing at this point.
And these two things are different exactly how?
Uh, Matt, I’m pretty sure that’s the shadow from his finger, not a filter. Plus, keep in mind that he probably has big hands, have you seen a cigarette that larger before? I think not.
Also a couple of years ago, he was asked about ‘drugs,’ and if he had consumed drugs. He replied he hadn’t, and the reporter asked about the above film clip/shot, to which he replied (Arnold accent) “Marijuana is not a drug.”
I guess the size of the cig depends on if it’s hand-rolled or not. There are still a lot of people who buy tobacco in raw form and roll it themselves.
it’s the only way to get organic tobac from what i understand
While I understand the principle, Marijuana is, in fact, a drug. A mood altering (psychoactive) one at that. Perhaps Ah-nold should edumacate himself a little more.
A psychoactive drug or psychotropic substance is a chemical substance that acts primarily upon the central nervous system where it alters brain function, resulting in temporary changes in perception, mood, consciousness and behaviour. These drugs may be used recreationally to purposefully alter one’s consciousness, as entheogens for ritual or spiritual purposes, as a tool for studying or augmenting the mind, or therapeutically as medication.
A drug, broadly speaking, is any substance that, when absorbed into the body of a living organism, alters normal bodily function.[3] There is no single, precise definition, as there are different meanings in drug control law, government regulations, medicine, and colloquial usage.[4]
In pharmacology, Dictionary.com defines a drug as “a chemical substance used in the treatment, cure, prevention, or diagnosis of disease or *used to otherwise enhance physical or mental well-being*.”[4] Drugs may be prescribed for a limited duration, or on a regular basis for chronic disorders.[5]
Recreational drugs are chemical substances that affect the central nervous system, such as opioids or hallucinogens.[5] They may be used for perceived beneficial effects on perception, consciousness, personality, and behavior.[5][6] Some drugs can cause addiction and habituation.[6]
Many natural substances such as beers, wines, and some mushrooms, blur the line between food and drugs, as when ingested they affect the functioning of both mind and body.
ZZZZZZzzzzzzzz…….
funnyfunny…XP
What’s the difference?
And so the Terminator joins the ranks of Michael Phelps, Presidents Obama and Clinton, and don’t forget Tommy Chong and Willie Nelson! lol
Or, you could end up being the President of the United States.
Meh, no one cares anymore. In fact, no one has cared for about 15 years or so… no one with a life anyways.
