[QUOTE=actionhank;19648469]You can in theory die from an overdose of THC. It's possible, but it's not probable at all.
An over-abundance of anything in your system can kill you.
But the point is you could never take that much THC in short of somehow getting straight THC and shooting it up by the boat-load.[/QUOTE]
It's easier to die from Vitamin E than THC.

You can overdose on sugar guys, it's called diabetes.

you are so right, I smoke weed because I am a loser, it has nothing to do with shoulder and back pain from when I broke my shoulder at the joint in 2006, has nothing to do with that :downs:
ITT a bunch of 13 year olds say pot is horrible but will probably drink alcohol when they are older.
If you are going to bitch about how bad pot is for you, then you better abstain from drinking.
Oh god this thread reaks of ignorance.
steal his wallet
and eating junk food.
fucker(s) broke my automerge
BTW I am not going to deny that pot can have ill effects, but so does playing video games. Yes you can become a stoned good for nothing loser, but its not because of an actual chemical addiction; its because you revolve your life around it. It's like video games; great in moderation, but if thats all you fucking do you're going to end up a no-life living in their mother's basement.

We have a winner.
[QUOTE=frums;19648559]I'm quite aware of that, I assumed that was common sense.[/QUOTE]
You can never assume common sense on the internet.
Only the lack of it.
[QUOTE=AlphaGunman;19643736]Some dumbass gets high, decides he wants to go get something to eat or whatever, has nothing, gets in his car, crashes.[/QUOTE]
HERP DERP. Alcohol makes people do the same thing on a daily basis and it's legal.
How many of the naysayers here have actually tried smoking weed then? In my opinion it's safer than alcohol.
When you're high you're more likely to sit in your room with your friends laughing about random shit than going out getting wankered, starting a fight, getting beaten the shit out of, abusing your girlfriend and spending the night in the police station like people do every fucking friday night when they go out drinking.
i'm not against alcohol, I drink it and enjoy it's effects, just to say.

I said it was not likely at all.
I'm just saying, it's possible.
I'm trying to squash both the people saying that pot kills, and the people saying a THC over-dose is impossible.
Your friends must have lol'd so hard.
I thought Facepunch was more open to this sort of thing :raise:
Marijuana seems harmless as far as the most reliable sources I can see tell me.

It's as harmless as you want to make it.

If alcoholic beverages were first discovered today, they would be be classified as an illicit drug immediately. The only reason they aren't is because alcohol (and thereby also alcoholism, sadly) was invented simultaneously by many ancient cultures and has grown to become accepted, despite all the death and misery it causes. If alcohol prohibition actually worked, we would have ridden ourselves of the burden a long time ago. We don't need more burdens.

Pot may not kill, but it can hardly be good for you.
Same goes for alcohol and tobacco.
Myself I don't see why anyone would want to have weed; then again, I'm asthmatic so smoking pretty much anything would probably kill me.
I stand by my opinion that although alcohol abuse is more dangerous than weed abuse, if you drink carefully then you'll do less damage than if you smoke weed carefully.
I do believe that if weed is banned, tobacco should be banned, though. I think if weed was unbanned, I really wouldn't care as long as no one smokes it in my face.

Forgot the illegal part. Thanks for the heads-up.

Thank you, I don't want alcohol banned. I'm not a boozer but I do like beer/wine/whisky.
Vodka is stupid though; tastes of shit and just gets you drunk.

Weed is a bronchodilator, which cancels the effect from the smoke. It's unlikely to have any issues with asthma while smoking weed.

Whatever, I still wouldn't fancy smoking it. It's the smoke part.

It's the exact same thing as all other substances; Some individuals can enjoy them in moderation, some (usually a majority depending on the nature of the stuff) are simply unable.

If you're interested, you can try a vaporizer. No harm to the lungs and a cleaner high.

It's one of those issues that people have polar opposite views on, sadly.

I'm asthmatic and smoking it doesn't do any harm because it isn't every day. just don't smoke all the time and you are fine. though if your asthma is proper bad then maybe you shouldn't.

...Ok, let me rephrase that. I just don't really want to do weed. It's like a rollercoaster; the risks are tiny but I still don't fancy it.

Facepunch would have a flamewar over marmite if someone made a thread about it
[QUOTE=decilling;19644748]stop rating yourself agree and get off your high horse, do some research before you say "weed will kill you if you smoke it long enough." You know people enjoy to alter their state of mind, you probably do it with a far worse drug that is accepted, thus you think it is safe and OK. you are ignorant to such an extreme that you think you need to tell people your opinion over and over. Makes me angry that a lot of people are like you[/QUOTE]
Weed is naughty!
Hey guys, while you're not smoking weed, stop eating fast food! Shit'll give you heart problems and high cholesterol! Also, stop using salt! You'll get heart problems from that too! And why not just stop eating, too much food will kill you! And stop drinking liquids, too much of that shit will drown you from the inside!
