i despise movies that pander to average(stereotypical) stoners-the average stoner is stupid-SLC Punk did a good job of accurately portraying the drug culture even though it sprayed shit at the end

cheech and chong are brilliant, but they have still shaped and warped young and ignorant minds(pothead=stupid if you are a mooing cow) and we [I]still[/I] live in a society that can't free itself from the mundane bullshit-they had a lot of people's attention and it's unfortunate that no effort was made to put a stop to the "drugs are bad, mmm kaaay" mentality that has stunted sociological evolution

then there is the theory that the average potsmoker is stupid just because the average person is stupid
whether they smoke pot or not is irrelevant

i think that preconcieved notions gleaned from our culture have a negative effect on first time users...of anything. we react in a socially acceptable manner, mimicking being high or confused or hungry, even if this isn't how we are being affected by the chemical's reception, absorption.it's different for everyone. if you tell someone that they are being given A without actually giving it to them and they still trip(according to whatever they think that means) then we see that we are trained to respond to any given circumstance.ie: we need air to breathe cuz we think we do and our minds adapt our bodies, etc-anyway, expectations quelch the actual experience and prevent any learning, growing, evolution from taking place, in my opinion.

dude, this is the tip of the ice berg, believe me, i could talk for hours about these things and so many others-i'm have more depth than i'd care to at this point. i wasn't sure if I should be so frank in my early postings, but eh, why not. i've never even had an intelligent conversation with anyone online til now, so yay for the cult!

What if I mimick socially [I]un[/I]acceptable things. Like, sometimes, when I go to the bank; I'll stare at the security guard, and pretend to talk into my arm; and quickly turn away when they look over

Half Baked is my favourite stoner/drug comedy
Fear and Loathing in las Vegas and Trainspotting are tied for me
A Scanner Darkly was dissappointing
Human Traffic was decent, I just remember the line "I'm having a monumental case of "Mr. Floppy"". so good
Layer Cake was terrific i thought, I like it better than say... Snatch and Lock Stock

i liked the monkeys head, unfortunately

but i think X-the Man with the X-Ray Eyes is the best drug related movie ever, despite its low production values and being somewhat dated. granted, its not Easy Rider dated, but its a little dated. but its not only my favorite drug movie, its my favorite movie. period.

has anyone mentioned the lost weekend? i really want to see this. i'm a ray milland fan.

And then I wonder why in Boise there are no security guards. I've never seen one anyways, and been to lot's of banks here. And then they wonder why so many decide to rob them. Apparently a couple of 16 year old girls even decided to try their hand at robbing a bank with only sunglasses for disguises. That happened in Georgia though Wink
