TRP, weed and you.

I keep some around, it is great for pulling younger girls back to the crib. Whenever there is that point at the club where you think you can close, just ask them to come back to your place and smoke. It helps their antislut defense. Most of the time if you have a good physical escalation going you can caveman them when you get back and they don't even ask about it.

Other than that, I only smoke maybe 1-2 times a month, typically after a big workout when I'm bulking and have been grilling up a lot of stuff. It's pure BP indulgence and there is no real benefit. Usually I just listen to music, go for a hike, bicycle around, or write so my rationalization is that I am using the "free time" slot of my day for something that I anyways would have done. I also vaporize for health reasons.

But for younger guys / college guys, smoking weed is a bad call. You don't need any more distractions. I don't need any distractions either, but I've forced myself to learn discipline by working in the gaming industry for a few years and only playing video games maybe 1-2 hrs a week, just to stay on top of trends / new games. I have my nofap badge back from when I read about the concept in David Deida, before the nofap community was around. I used to get wasted in college and I learned how to go out and not drink while still having fun, etc. When you have learned discipline to a good degree, then you can introduce the occasional 'fun' back into your life. Then you actually enjoy it, because you aren't escaping anything.

One rarely actually benefits or progresses by smoking weed ... Weed takes you away from reality thus your purpose.

These statements sum up my opinion of recreational drug use. I would not judge another for it - each to his own - but I do not bother with it. Also, it can possibly be quite the money sink if I'm not mistaken.

Cannabis is a tool. It can be misused, or abused, but it can also change your outlook on life in a positive manner.

I think everyone should smoke some weed. A little. A few zips when you're young.

One other thing is strain. For so long, people have had little to no discretion to exercise when buying. With legalization comes more control over what you get out of your cannabis. There are strains that do not demotivate, but expand creativity. This is something to keep in mind as we move into the legalization age.

I've found that pot makes my experiences with food, music, nature and sex better. The sex part mainly because it delays my orgasm by about 200-300%.

That said I find it can make me slightly paranoid and socially awkward.

If you enjoy it, as with all things, do it in moderation, preferably alone or right before you fuck.

I use it nightly, and when I need to break a bout of writer's block. It actually has helped me significantly with my career (I have to write about some relatively boring and repetitive topics, so pot helps me to find new and more interesting angles to use).

I am married and have a kid. I never smoke in front of my son. I have no guilt about smoking half a joint after the kid is in bed and the dishes from dinner are done. No harm no foul.

I know it isn't for everyone, but I have made it work for me without stunting my learning.

Anecdotal pro's: If you smoke it alone, and get pretty high it's really good for self-reflection.

I do it on the occasion and when I do its like all the things and habits I need to drop are right in front of my face, and all the things I'm proud of are too.

It's also good in some social situations.

Con's: Cost, and the feeling of "burning out."

Mankind has evolved over 150,000 years ingesting many psychoactive drugs such as Marijuana and mushrooms. One should be asking the question, what damage has been done to us by depriving us of substances that may be essential to our being? In fact they are curing some cancers using hemp oil. Perhaps some diseases exist due to the fact we are deprived of THC. What if salt were illegal? We'd all be dead.

Marijuana isn't illegal because the government cares about us, it's illegal because back in the 20's Larry Ainslinger, a government whore was pimping himself out to his wealthy inlaw William Randolph Hearst who invested millions in forestry and paper making equipment shortly before a process was developed to manufacture paper from hemp.

Government is crooked. Government sucks. And they solve small problems with larger ones. They start shit with other nations and say they have to fight these wars for our freedom.

I only smoke weed after a night out to get some rest, otherwise I'm weed free.

I quit smoking regularly because I realized that the alternative treatment for my anxiety was getting off my arse and working out/reading/doing something productive, weed is a de-motivator.

I've stopped drinking at home too, for the same reason.

Weed helps me to internalize trp philosophy deeper and better

If I could go back in time and tell my younger self (19/20 years old) anything, in the entirety of anything, it would be to not smoke so much, or any, weed.

A lot of people make it out to be so awesome that they act like its a health food or vitamin. Its still a drug. Regardless of how safe it is, there is no difference between someone who is high all day and someone who is drunk all day. You're using it to escape your pathetic life and becoming complacent about how pathetic your life actually is.

Some people do great things high. But not me. It wasted a lot of my time and made me ok with being bored and boring. If you smoke regularly it probably does the same. Be honest with yourself.
