hi
<purr>
ec: hi!
<ec>
micahjoh1ston: you online?
<ec>
micahjohnston: * -^
<Navarr>
meow
<ec>
Navarr: actually, you're relevant to this, for me. (=
<Navarr>
whats up?
<ec>
Navarr: straight-up: do you smoke weed? and how often?
<ec>
actually,
<ec>
better way of putting it:
<Navarr>
I don't. I never have, and I never will. I'm too straightedge :p
<ec>
1. *have* you ever smoked weed, 2. *do* you smoke weed, currently, and 3. do you *enjoy* smoking weed?
<ec>
okay. interesting.
<ec>
reasoning as to no?
<Navarr>
I'm generically against drugs that alter one's state of mind. I don't believe it to be "them." Also just the way I was raised (even though i know my mom pertook on occasion). In general, I just have a strong affinity against it for no particular reason.
<ec>
okies
<Navarr>
Sorry, I know that's not particularly logical.
<Navarr>
what's the reason for asking, if i may ask?
<ec>
Interesting conversation with the girlfriend about weed.
<ec>
She and I are literally two of the only people in the entire world I know of, that haven't, and don't, smoke.
<ec>
It's *extremely* wide-spread and socially acceptable … even socially *expected*, nowadays.
<ec>
She doesn't have much of a problem with it; she just chooses not to do it … but neither is she bothered when other friends start talking about it
<ec>
whereas I'm more touchy, and have *real* trouble not getting put-off, and slightly upset, and antisocial, when the topic turns to weed
<ec>
much less when people actually, you know, start smoking up, around me …
<ec>
anyway.
<ec>
just curious what the other *truly intelligent* people I know, do. how they feel about it. /=
<ec>
I'm extremely judgemental about pot, and people who smoke it. I feel, on some level, like I *shouldn't* be … but I also, simultaneously, feel like I shouldn't-fucking-feel-bad *for* judging people for pot.
<ec>
(I imagine that this is how some of the more religious elements of society feel about homosexuality. Icky feeling. Poor people.)
<alexgordon>
ec: I know you asked for truly intelligent people, but I'm here!
<alexgordon>
ec: personally I'd be more annoyed about the smoking aspect than the weed aspect
* yorick
looks outside, oh people are barbecuing, must be hot.

prophile: I think it's growing up in twickenham, but I really hate drunk people
<alexgordon>
when you've had your town crawling with tens of thousands of drunk rugby fans, at 6pm every saturday, it really puts you off the whole "alcohol is fun!" idea
<alexgordon>
(also, rugby)
