For anyone interested, Germany's Leftist party suggested a bill to (sort of) legalize Marijuhana in Germany:

The majpr parties are against it, so I doubt it will get through, but the idea has been tossed around a lot recently. It looks we're on a good way.


Hemp is legal in most Europeans countries right?

Yes. 14 different breeds of industrial hemps are legal in the EU, though the fields are always under supervision AFAIK. Coincidentally, 100 metres from my house is a big industrial hemp field. Industrial hemp contains no THC of course, so smoking that gains you nothing. That doesn't stop some idiots from trying, though.

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

For some reason in USA we believe that it is best to use trees to make paper even though the US Constitution is written on hemp and almost all of the founding fathers huge supporters of hemp.



I am not really sure what the big deal is with nerdy people and a drug that essentially makes you temporarily retarded. It is also funny how essentially two types of people support mariajana: losers and nerds/geeks. Although nerds/geeks seem to have an unhealthy obsession with marijuana that no other group of people seems to have.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

I'm glad to see that you view people that smoke weed so highly.  Maybe if you actually had a debate with an educated person that is high then you would know that they are capable of deep conversation (even when stoned).  When I get high with some of my friends we dwell into more scientific topics (in one session) than you probably even touch within a year.  Also, check the poll results for yourself.  You are in the minority now since most people have realized they were fed lies about marijuana.

I need to check the hot topics more often. I think Dr. Grass got married or something. Will be gone for a bit.

 


You are certainly on top of things!

Yep, got married, but that's been the least time consuming... Redone the house, bought all sorts of psychadelic furniture (we have a 2m tall giraffe in our living room for instance), been hanging out at the beach (it's been gloriously sunny), smoking barrels of pot, playing cricket, sorting out my investments and short term financial plan, and lastly started on my thesis.

*big breath*

phew

People who say stoners can't function/cope should go fuck themselves.

Anyways, nice to be back. I'm going to have a nice joint now and play some Fifa onlne :)

peace all

^FTW

It may be just me, but the stoners I know are way ahead of the curve. For instance, I invited 5 friends to my wedding (all heavy stoners ofc):

A - Best man. Senior Lead Java programmer. Plays 7 instruments.

R - Software engineer. Designs games in spare time.

S - Marijuana poster boy. Space physicist with dreads. Very clever. Earns top salary now as consultant.

G - Physicist. Got 100 straight for Maths 1st year through to 4th. Averaged 98 in advanced statistics last year.

M - Well, maybe this guy isn't in the league of the others. Good at sport though.

M2 - Millionare boy. Rich family. Big brain. Takes life easy. He's 22 and earns more than my parents (achieved that on his own btw).

 

Now either these anti weed people are just jealous, or they're living in some alternate reality.

In fact, empirical evidence suggest marijana makes you smart, rich and successful. :-|

 

EDIT:all those peeps are 25 and under btw.



What up VGC stoners. Been a minute since I've replied back but looks like marijuana progression is going nicely in the USA. Colorado and Washington both approved legislation if I am not mistaken. You know what will make me happy when I die? When everyone realizes marijuana > alcohol. Shit was made worse with alcohol being illegal during prohibition yet they are making shit even worse now with targeting non violent marijuana users and making usual law abiding citizens into criminals that support mother fucking Mexican drug cartels when they could be helping rebuild America with tax revenue. Sorry almost went off in a rant there... I'm going to go get more high.

"If you smoke like I smoke
Then you high like everyday"



Happy 4/20 VGC. Grats to Colorado and Washington for legalization. I stopped smoking for 5 days and today will be the last day I smoke in awhile.



I love you Mary Jane!

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
