Hey, this is EvilBusDriver. I joined your guild because you invited me. I guess you like my post about hemp in ED. I created a whole thread in the Guild for it because I thought it was a big part to look up on. I PM'ed this mesage to the admin and forgot to post it in this forum so long ago. So here, this is me.

Right now I am.....16. Shhhhh. I'm a Junior so I act like a mature 18 yr old and I consider myself one.

I am not a user of Marijuana nor do I have any plans to. Though I have come in direct contact with some of my friend's bag of it before. I wasn't educated of Cannabis and I even managed to point out that about 1/3 of it was actually Nutmeg. I'll speak about how I know so much about it later though.

For legalization, I'm leaning a little towards legalizing it. I have my reasons. I've done a very large study on it and both sides of the argument.

Who referred me? Despair did.

I guess I want to join this guild because I recently did a large study/report on it.

Ok. I am a person who likes to have hobbies that include collecting illegal things. Really. I have several knives and a lock pick set. I also make my own wine which I taste test and change as I need to. I have not commited any crimes with these nor do I plan to. This is Southern Michigan, no one cares unless you hurt someone.
Every now and then, I'm at this arcade place, see? I'm constantly asked by these guys in hoods: "Hey man, you got any weed?" I wouldn't freak out, I'd kindly say "Sorry, no." Every now and then I'd jokingly say "No, sorry. Just ran out."
Anyways, About a month ago I felt like I needed a little more money. I thought about selling drugs. I live in Southern Michigan, The fine for possession is $25. I also have Hash Bash at my side. I even went to the extent of going online and looking up where to buy seeds. I also managed to get a .pdf file of How to Grow Your Own Cannabis from 4chan. There, I learned about the many strains and effects on the human body they give. Instead of buying seeds, I began to make a longer study of Cannabis and I learned about Hemp and Hash. I've restrained myself from buying seeds. But because of this attraction of illegal things, I've been able to learn more about them and their true uses. Anyways, my fingers are getting tired so I hope you read all of this and considered me a knowledgeable member of your guild and that you made a good choice when inviting me.

I do not mind if this information is posted on the site forum. Actually I'd rather you put it up there if you want to. Many people know about my attraction to illegal objects, but they don't care because they know I'm a nice guy and I wouldn't use them to harm anyone.

d00d... You posted that thread in the ED? And I missed you? Hell, I'm slacking... emo

eek Well that's something you don't see everyday...

EvilBusDriver
I also make my own wine which I taste test and change as I need to.

Ooh! Ooh! I wanna help taste test! cheese_whine

I can relate, I think... I really only ever sold to my roommates and parents, though. I just don't want the attention. o_O;

I might just be having a blonde moment, but what is Hash Bash?


EvilBusDriver
But because of this attraction of illegal things, I've been able to learn more about them and their true uses.

Out of curiosity, do you think marijuana would interest you in the same way if it were legal, or decriminalized for medical use?

'Ello... dunno how TOS-friendly online sessions'd be, but Piotr had mentioned a similar idea not too long ago -- having set times when members can try to be online and in the guild, so that the conversation actually flows... I shall ponder this.

ebola the atheist
Do you use cannabis?: No (but I'd be lying if I said I weren't interested).

Always best to learn about something before trying it, though! 3nodding

ebola the atheist
Did anyone refer you here (& if yes, who)?: your sig.

Eh? Mine? Or -- Azure and Despair and Mon all link in their sigs... I think a few others too...? Can't remember at the mo. xp

Banned -- from Gaia? eek Glad it's not a problem anymore!!

But realistically, who doesn't complain about their hometown?

And as for the drawing, I suspect you're in good company -- art and herb seem to go hand in hand. ^^ If you like, you can post some of your work in the Art & Music subforum there.

Welcome to the guild, guys! mrgreen

Yeah... I scour the backpages of drug threads in the ED, looking for people who seem like they're literate and interested in herb or drugs in general... ninja

I get called a hippie ten times a day, but I've never actually done drugs. I drink and smoke hookah.

Hey, that counts, y'know! ^_~ I love hookah, but in the last two years the couple dingy little hookah bars near me have become upscale, and there's at least a dozen others... used to be $6 a hookah for the evening, now it's $10-15. *grumbles*

And anyway, you don't have to do drugs to be a hippie -- you just have to be all on about ending the war, and being groovy to each other. ^^

Okay, so doing drugs definitely solidifies the title! xd

Make love, not war -- hit the bed, not the floor. 3nodding


Yeah, I just find it ironic that a lot of the kids I got to school with think I'm perpetually stoned when I don't smoke at all.

I'm more of a hippie in the make love not war, and political activist/make the world a happier place sense.

I iwas the same way... but my parents were both middle school teachers at schools that fed to my high school (hell, I was in my mom's algebra class in eighth grade!), so I was "Mr./Mrs. [------'s] Daughter" to half the school (well... there were about 3,000 students, so maybe more like a third...), so between that and my grades, I was a Good Girl. But I still charged people for my homework if they wanted to borrow it. ^^

And a couple years after graduation, I got back in touch with a girl I'd known all the way from sixth to twelfth grade but we hadn't been particularly close -- and our folks knew each other, too, because her dad worked for the district as well. We got together and, lo and behold, we smoked out. After a few minutes she shook her head and laughed, and said she just couldn't get over the idea of me, smoking pot! *headdesk*

But little sister... I think mom started asking her if she was on drugs when she was twelve. stressed


Errr yeah. My mom's a high school Assistant Principal, but not one at my school thankfully. Still most of the faculty at my school know me because of her. A lot of kids in the area I live in do some type of illegal substance because I live in an extremely affluent suburb of Dallas, so I've been exposed to pot and the like I've just never smoked it. Also it's funny because my Gifted and Talented class at school is full of stoners. It's hilarious sometimes.

Ack, I can only imagine how it'd be to go to a school your parent's an administrator at! gonk Your mom's in the same district as you, though? How far away is her school?

Hehe, it was called the GATE program in my district, too... I know a few of the kids started smoking in middle school, and probably... eh, maybe a little more than half my class could say they at least smoked weed occasionally by the time we were seniors. I wasn't one, but at that time I was sure my parents would kill me. *headdesk*

But I've noticed that's kinda the stereotype of the suburbs, that by high school the vast majority of kids have at least tried drugs, and better than half do something fairly regularly. I lived about right inbetween Los Angeles and Palm Springs, near the edge of the Badlands -- the deserted expanse of land that's way too rocky and uneven for growing, raising, or building anything but the twistiest of highways, but is the perfect locale to dispose of bodies and hold raves. And to this day, the only amusement my city offers is a bowling alley, a half-empty mall and a couple cinemas that charge an arm and a leg. Not exactly conducive to the whole "[something] is my anti-drug" mindset!

Hi my name is Hellraver,
I am from Berlin started weeds at an age of 16 years. I am working as a freelance soundtechnician for concerts. I am not a literate consumer, but still regularly. Smoking weeds should become legal under the same conditions like alcohol, that would kick the black market into the butt. My friends are the usual buyers and I am someone who hangs himself into the chain, what doesn't bother them.

Sometimes I just want to get really stoned and at other times I just want to get high to get another entry to music and such stuff.

Yes it sure would... out of curiosity, what is the legal drinking age in Germany, anyway? A girl from Stuttgart once told me that basically, if you can see over the bar counter to ask for a beer, you'll get it -- but that was more than ten years ago. ^^;

Do you use cannabis?: I did at one point, had to stop because I got caught by a family member. (long story)

That blows... did you try offering them a hit? ninja

the fruity bat panda
I used to not be able to light a lighter before I started toking.

... Not a pyro, I take it? xd

I dunno, now that I try to remember, I can't think of when it was I learned... sweatdrop

I remember when I was in Italy (6 years ago) kids were allowed to drink in the bar.

And a friend who is Ireland has seen kids in them.

Of course these were the bars off the tourist beaten path. Those actually DO have a 21 age limit because of those crazy Americans.
