I've posted this before in another thread, but I honestly don't care what anyone does - be it in game, or irl - regarding drugs as long as it doesn't affect me. If you want to shoot up heroin and play - AND can still play your class, more power to you.

That being said, I agree that pot smokers who feel the need to allow the fact that they smoke pot define who they are are pretty annoying. If you're wearing anything tie dyed, listening to bob marley, have dreads, know 30+ different names for strains of pot, own more than 5 pipes/bongs/etc... I'm talking to you. Seriously, I don't smoke pot much anymore - but even when I was a daily smoker, no one would have looked at me and had any indication that I was a stoner. People who feel they need to ascribe to the traditional stoner image for some reason or another are taking it too far imo.

Smoke all you want - hell feel free to talk about it if you really want... just know that if you feel the need to go on and on about it, I'm going to think that you're a tool who is overly concerned with letting people know how cool they are because they do something that like 90% of the people in our general demographic do.

Alawen, ok let me reword this...
I was without smoking, drinking or the GENERAL PERCEPTION of drugs in my system for 26 years. Without getting into the Caff, sugars and whatever debate, lets just make this easier.
My vice is enjoying the kick in the butt I get in the gym from what I do. I've done it for a total of 18 weeks in my life, broken up into many different stages and years. Is it right? Nope. I only said it here as to not come across as Im completely innocent, obviously I'm not. Didn't realize how people could take the ball and run the other way with it so quickly. Guess that makes me a "poser". My feelings are hurt, I'll prolly have to take ANTI-DEPRESSANTS NOW!!! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
There's no debate about caffeine. It's a drug. You can argue about sucrose if you want, but try giving it to toddlers and watch what happens in 15 minutes.

I'll give you caffeine - but if you're seriously going to try and even remotely argue that sugars, which are naturally occuuring in a vast majority of everything we eat, are drugs - then you're crazy guy. That's like saying air is a drug and its affect on our body is giving us the oxygen required for life.

Dude, that shit is 68% nitrogen - definitely quality air!

Smoking drugs is bad.

I'm just fine with fructose and lactose. Sucrose is an intense CNS stimulant. If you're like most people, your tolerance is so sky high you can't even feel it anymore.

If you think its a coincidence that when i was asked by my dad at 7 years old where i wanted to eat i would scream "MCDONALDS!!! MCDONALDS!!!" and not because the food is crammed with sugar.... hey i just agreed with Alawen, look at that!

Finally, a corporate conspiracy we both can love.

sugar is something our body uses to produce the energy that keeps our cells alive. this includes sucrose which is broken down into fructose and glucose when ingested. if you're going to call it a drug then you're batshit crazy.

That would be just fine except for the habit forming qualities of sucrose and resulting over consumption. Over consumption of sugar leads to tooth decay, insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity and gout. The food energy in sucrose is extremely short duration and sucrose contains no other nutrients.

Nice food you got there.
