[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;46520289] weed is not chemically addictive, but it can create a psychological dependence if you do it wrong. once again, it's not the weed's fault[/QUOTE] While you're partially correct, it doesn't form a psychological dependence by 'doing it wrong.' People with addictive personalities become addicted to things more easily. It varies from person to person, and making a generalization like that is dangerous.

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520216]Using drugs responsibly is an oxymoron, taking a drug in itself is irresponsible.[/QUOTE] Thank god that's not the point of the seed vault. People went insanely off topic. The seed vault is there to protect any and all plants that we have on our planet for a worst case situation, it's made for any and all plants, no matter how useless they are, because they are a part of our planet.
Can't wait for my seed to be preserved as well
[QUOTE=Kirad;46520271]That's pretty nitpicky. It's obvious what type of 'drug' he's talking about in this context.[/QUOTE] I suppose; it's just easy to see his bias towards it because he couldn't handle the habit himself
[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46519993]Wow so we can have annoying stoners even after the bombs drop. They should remove the seeds from the bank again, it has literally no value to the survival of the human species. Most of the "medicinal" properties it has are outclassed by actual medicine. You can make rope from other plants. This is stupid.[/QUOTE] "We shouldn't store this thing because I don't like it". It's as retarded as saying we shouldn't save DNA from flies because they're annoying, if the objective was to preserve all species on Earth and we could recreate an animal completely from only it's DNA. Also, the only few times I smoked weed it wasn't even mine and I sure didn't get addicted to it, some people here just can't control themselves and then blame it on the easiest thing to blame, the weed itself.
But yeah let's talk more about marijuana seeds located in a mountain somewhere. Always too easy to go off topic in weed related threads
[QUOTE=Kite_shugo;46520225]Your logic breaks fast when you apply it to taking drugs for, lets say, an infection?[/QUOTE] dohoho i have caught a non stoner using the term "drug" without qualification dohoho

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520140]I wasted the most important year of my life smoking that crap. Sure was fun being broke all the time and having my friend circle reduced from sensible people that actually cared about something to a bunch of annoying parasitic pricks. Sure was fun waking up after passing out having all your cash stolen from your wallet, all your cigs stolen. Sure was fun getting an anxiety attack everytime I saw a man in a uniform. Sure was fun getting a fine that got me in debt with the state. Sure was fun being hated by the family. Sure was fun developing social anxiety and depression. Sure was fun becoming schizophrenic. Sure was fun having no meaningful social life at all. Sure was fun going crazy from all the crap they laced the dope with. Sure was fun going from high grades to not even being in school anymore. Yeah, loads of fun in that "harmless" herb.[/QUOTE] I dunno man, these sound like a lot of personal problems rather than effects of weed.
*insert meaningless comment here*

Quite spouting nonfactual mumbo jumbo and take a hit for once, or get the facts right. [quote]Cannabis seeds from as many as 17 countries can be found in the SGSV. But surprisingly, [B]North Korea[/B] has sent over 500 varieties of the marijuana seed, but what is even more surprising is that America still hasn’t deposited any pot seeds, reported Cannabis Business Times.[/quote] Damn.
[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520495]Did you even read the article?[/QUOTE] So; why isn't weed/hemp an important crop? That's all you have to explain. Not your personal experience with why you can't handle smoking weed

It's like the equivalent to Alaska or something.[/QUOTE] That's pretty damn genius and I sure am glad that someone pulled something like this off. Even in the event of nuclear war this place is real unlikely to get targeted, unless someone is just being a spiteful prick. Although considering what kind of prick someone would have to be to start nuclear war in the first place, I wouldn't be surprised. [editline]18th November 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520495]Did you even read the article? [editline]18th November 2014[/editline] Yeah because its my fault that I developed a multitude of mental illnesses.[/QUOTE] I'm just kinda willing to suggest it since I used it frequently (every other day on average) on my off time during my most successful years of highschool and university. I'm currently employed in my chosen, studied-for profession as well. I never alienated anyone as a result as I simply chose to be sober when I was around people who'd be bothered by it. Hence why I don't think weed is a problem in and of itself.

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520029]Yeah and then nobody will do anything to rebuild society because they are too stoned. Well scratch that, keep the seeds.

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520556]I would have been fine if they only kept samples of ruderalis, the non-psychoactive kind of hemp.[/QUOTE] Why would they if there's also a medicinal version of the same plant
[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;46520577]I remember being like you, so convinced that all the bad things people said about cannabis were lies.[/QUOTE] Man, I was trying to help you out a bit earlier, but you're showing your bias and skirting around the issues. Why can't you legitimately answer Kite_shugo's question?
Welp fuck me I derailed a thread with my butthurt. I don't even want to make up an excuse for this bullshit. But sleep deprivation and intense nicotine cravings played part in my arsehattery. Though being an idiot was the biggest influence. Weed is a nice drug and all, I just couldn't handle it. Sorry for shitposting. I should get myself checked for bipolar.

Like, yeah, I get it, "Weed culture" is fucking trash and it smells disgusting. So what. Let people do what they want. Who cares. They're just going to die of lung cancer anyway, not your problem.

We'll be able to blaze it using nuclear hellfire.

[QUOTE]Svalbard’s database reveals they are currently holding more than 21,500 cannabis seeds in the vault. Surprisingly, that’s more weed seeds than there are asparagus, blueberry or raspberry seeds currently being safeguarded at the facility.[/QUOTE]
