Alcohol vs marijuana

[Streetcar]

Agreed. CBD oil looks very promising for treating a multitude of medical problems. I hope that, in the near future it will become over-the-counter(not from a pot shop).

Cbd is legal, it cannot have thc except in mj states

Can it be purchased online?

 

[Rustyiron]

I just saw it on amazon when I did a search, didn't "click" on it. I think I'm going to seek out some of that CBD stuff locally. The web was not helpful for that. My knees
What I did read was that it had no THC and is legal for sale in all 50 states.

My point is that your hasty generalization was, by nature of a generalization, incorrect. You said "if you use pot, you have behavioral issues". Sorry, but that's not true. Maybe you're an 80 year old lady going through chemo, or a 7 year old with uncontrollable seizures, or a beloved community figure who smokes pot on the weekends. Do some people who smoke it have behavioral issues? OF COURSE. Do plenty of people who don't have behavioral issues? YES!! It's like saying, everyone who eats chocolate fudge is poor at math. Just doesn't work that way.

If you are looking to escape into a buzz you have problems.

I manage and am an Actuary for an insurance company. So I work with a lot of very smart, math oriented, introverted, nerds basically. There is a very distinct trend I see, none of them drink. However, they do like to smoke weed. They all have very good memories and the ability you have very long critical thought. So I think scapegoating stoners as not having good memories and as idiots is naive. All things have different reactions to people, like some drinkers are fun to be around and some are just jerks. Some of the smartest people I know go home at night and smoke and are ready the next day to complete some of the most complex problems known to man (healthcare).

So to paint a broad brush into grouping everyone as the same because of a common trait, is a fools game.

There's a HUGE difference between a drinker and a drunk, and there's a HUGE difference between a pot smoker and a full blown stoner. I can assure you, should those people smoke pot as much as a drunk drinks, they'll suffer in the long run.

Pot has been a great investment. ACBFF has been going straight up. Light up Canadians, I need the money.

This is the exact stuff I want to try. None of today's analgesic creams and balm seem to work any more. I have had some success with Blu-Emu but not great.

The Wife says it's just the first stage of Rigor...I think it just a worn out body from a life of hard work. Haha

Not to steer away from booze or pot etc...but how many know someone that is addicted to prescription pain meds...?...it's a sad situation...

Closet thing to a zombie we'll ever really see outside of the movies or TV...

I had a severe sinus infection a couple years ago. They gave me hydrocodone for the pain and antibiotics for the infection. It took a tad over an hour for the hydrocodone to kick in. They told me to take two if the pain returned. Well, the pain returned like a sledgehammered ice-pick in my head. Absolutely worst pain I've ever felt. So I took the pills, but it took over an hour to kick in. Once it kicked in, I could sleep. Then 4 hours later, back in pain, and another hour of suffering before the meds kick in. After about the 4th round of agony in two days, I took the pills after 4 hours BEFORE the pain returned. I didn't want it to return. Well, I found myself taking pills every 4 hours for three days. Guess what? I didn't want to stop the pills for fear of the pain returning. I realized what was happening and finally stopped taking them. Fortunately, the antibiotics had kicked in and I was fine. But I can see how easily it would be to get hooked on something like that if you had a serious injury where the pain was chronic. Kinda scary.

If you don't like prime rib (or ribeye steaks)...you're saying you just don't like beef...IMO and might as well eat soy or some of that other fake crap they sell these days...

Your right, I don't particularly care for beef, even prime rib, it has no flavor but please don't make me eat tofucrapola, I am pretty happy with my venison, buffalo, elk, moose, goat, pigs, he// even the armadillos I ate a few times had more flavor than beef

I have personally found that the kind of people that condem people for drinking for a buzz or smoking recreational marijuana for a buzz are exactly the same kind of folks that do cash deals to cheat on their taxes, keep a girlie calendar hidden behind something, somewhere in their garage, and generally push the moral majority kind of thinking circa Jerry Falwell.

Tried pot twice. Not the high power stuff now in vogue.
Just leaves pulled off in order for it to grow better.
Both times I went loony, thought I was dying & no one cared.

Recently dr.s gave 5 different pain pills. Way up the scale, oxcodne did nothing for the pain. did make some what of a loon.
Took that a long time to wear off. 5 different pills, 90 at pop. No more. Would only try 1 pill & if didn't work for pain. that would be the last one I would take.

Do like & enjoy beer, 2 or 3 in the evening. Once in a while if a friend comes by, maybe a few more.

Gave up hard liquor about 12 years ago, didn't like the taste. Or the after effects.

 

[Kentuckyfarmer]

I agree. I also think the same laws should apply to using one's Cell Phone while driving. Does your family do that?

I agree totally with that. Each day I run more of a risk getting in a accident with some bone head texting than anyone smoking pot or drinking beer.

I care....

You should probably stay away from peyote, then.

That sums it up pretty well.

Condem is your word and your inflection, interesting though.
