I'd say only about half the people that smoke it the first time actually get high, and that's because they didn't inhale right or they were shitting their pants. Don't try to be a fucking tough guy, and say you weren't neverous, because doing any drug for the first time is just nerve recking due to not understanding unique affects it'll have.
Now as for me I tried weed a couple of times, and I fucking love it - I fucking love it. I haven't smoked in a long time, and as I'm writing this I just remembered the last time I ever smoked, and it was with a cute blond chick in the parking lot of my work during lunch break. She smokes everyday, and has been a sorter of the month before. Folks, she works with me, and our job requires a lot of memory, extremely fast coordination, and a lot of heavy shit. Not to mention that shes dries her car about 90 mph stoned everyday to get lunch, and boy do I hate being with her while she is, but the point is if you think that this drug is in any way so bad then you got to stop listening to fucking virgins, fucking worthless school teachers, and stupid fucking worthless just a cunt mommies. You can even join the elite state police with having a usage history of mary J. Bottom line is it makes your very happy, hungry, and that's all. Please just know that there are people who suck at life, and in doing so everything they do: drunk drivers so please don't act as if people's action is justification enough to condemn something, but also take note that to much of a good thing will kill you!
Just a off the top of my head opinion for the few, the proud, my audience.
