Please ignore Galleleo posts, he has no idea what he's talking about, or where each viewpoint is actually coming from. He makes sweeping generalizations.

I didn't even make a post in this thread (besides from a one-liner that had nothing to do with making sweeping generalizations) you fucktard. And no that is not a generalization, that is you being a fucktard.

this thread just got real.

True genius isn't going deeper into things and making them more complicated, it's when you can achieve them at their simplest, and cannot remove anything from them and cannot find any faults within them.

itt: former drug users battle current drug users on their shitty drug using culture. Look, no one cares about your use, we care that most of you are trying to do a Catholic Missionary on us with it. It's stupid, and we find your beliefs stupid.

This is not an Atheist vs Christian battle, this is a 'Oh hey I did that' to a 'LOL I'M SO STONED RIGHT NOW, READ THESE ARTICLES YOU WILL BE ENLIGHTENED.'

Like Conc and I argued in an earlier thread, it's much easier to point out more famous sober or alcoholic artists than all the drug addled ones combined.

At some point Obama said to himself "I want to become the President of The United States, thus I can't be seen at Frat parties smoking a bong" (gotcha phelps). Even if he didn't say those exact words, he must have realized them. He also realized he wanted to graduate from law school, which meant he couldn't get high every day. I don't know about you but I think it's pretty unlikely someone was able to keep up a rigorous work habit mixed with a rigorous drug habit.

If you think you can function normally everyday under the influence then you're a fucking moron. A stoner is basically like others have said someone society glorifies, and the reality is people like Hunter S Thompson or Bradley Nowell (Sublime) had an amazing talent but drugs consumed their life and career. Society might say you were bad ass but like Paul said Hunter S Thompson was a piece of shit that deserves to go down in the books as a fucking schmuck. When I die I want my family to remember me as someone who was there for them, not someone who was caught up in my own bullshit.

Bradley Nowell, another hero of mine left his wife to take care of his baby cause he couldn't stop doing heroin. He was a huge stoner, weed didn't finish him off but his philosophies on drugs did. The list goes on and on, and trying to justify stoner culture by mentioning a few names of people who smoked weed for a questionable amount of time is offensive to those who have a legitimate problem, consciously or unconsciously. Fuck, I find it offensive that people buy into this weed culture bullshit, for some reason it's a culture so it's okay to get fucked up every day? Bullshit.

I keep coming back to it but it's a great example; it's cool and rad to get high every day but you're a piece of fucking shit if you drink every day. Not in my eyes.

so where does that leave us? Nowhere, cause guess what, I'm 20 years old, and how old are you? your 20 something right? That means life is still ahead of us and all the rest of us that did our share of drugs (and more to come later down the road for some of us). Stop looking at it negatively and you'll see all the shit that was done to your life was for a good reason. It's apart of the journey and enjoy the ride cause sooner or later it will end.

You don't understand, I'm glad I did all the things I did. I'm glad I spent a year of my life smoking weed everyday. Not because of the long term affects it had on me, but because of the experiences I've had through struggling to deal with my habits. Ultimately I've grown and learned from my teenage experiences.

I'm not even against weed, I'm just against this idea that a stoner somehow avoids negative connotations. A stoner is someone who uses an abundance of one substance, just like a drunk. It's pretty basic, too much of one thing is bad for you. Weed included.

If I said you did, I'm sorry if I did. I'm just trying to put it out there: He's a shitty husband, father, and artist.

Hunter S. Thompson was a hack and a wife beater, and more of an alcoholic than mescaline eater, gas inhaler, weed smoker, or LSD dropper. Children will all learn this in the next decade of English class in middleschool D.A.R.E. or whatever they teach nowadays.

I repeat, he was not a drug hero. He was disregarded by some of the best literary scholars and was a cult hero by only High Times and drug followers. You've been duped by 'the man' - your own sellers.

look I don't care who he was or what he did, I just made a fleeting reference to what I read from Fear and Loathing

sorry for the double post

edit2: Upon reading a sentence: Oh, you're high aren't you?

No I'm tired, and ready to go to bed

[gran guerrero]

Yikes, I can't read that with the run on sentences. Care to give a tl;dr version?

edit: Don't make () or - - without making them precise in the future. Holy crap that is unreadable.

artists did drugs, not drugs make artists

my shitty life filled with hunter s. thompson standard of living while at my first year at college away from home

my better life filled with maturity and responsibility back home starting college over again.

We are young, life goes on
