I love my life and would still like to try pot.

You'd love your life even more.

No. You (if the experience of myself and others who have smoked pot counts) will enjoy the high. It will be a pleasant mellow removal from reality. A mini vacation. Some have said they can look into their own problems as though unnattached. Then, slowly, the pot is more consuming. It goes from once or twice a month to several to daily. Then, when work or school or friendships start to turn sour marijuana is there to save the day. Life looks better because you can't feel the pain/depression. Pretty soon, you need that removal. Your hobby becomes an obsession. Opportunities waste away as you focus on something that is eating you like a tapeworm; from the inside out.

Sure, this might not happen to you. The odds are that it won't. In fact, the odds are also against a seatbelt ever saving your life. Odds are against you ever needing a helmet while riding a motorcycle. Of course, it is "cool" and fun to flirt with disaster. People see pot and helmetless riding as cool.

Helmetless riding isn't cool, cause they have helmets that have protection over your mouth so you don't swallow flies and bees.

While that is an option, and a valid concern, faceless helmets are more fun for the "dog hanging its head out the window" joy. Simple and fun.

and back to anarchy...

i came to the conclusion a few months ago that the idea of anarchy as a viable form breaks down as soon as two individuals form any sort of makeshift alliance.

mattslope · 01-02-2005, 01:59 PM

"alliance"?

You watch too much CBS, my friend.

**thesteve** · 01-02-2005, 02:19 PM

cbs? i'm guessing you're talking about survivor or some other "reality" show.

mattslope · 01-02-2005, 02:30 PM

You guess correctly, sir/madam. I prefer PAX for their old Dick Van Dyke mystery show. I still can't figure out why he's on television, maybe that is the mystery component.
