*goofy smile* If it gives you satisfaction then so be it :) If it doesn't and you want something different... like me, then so be it as well :)

There's a range of them The thirst for truth I think it's quirky I'm sick of sitting down watching t.v. only to see some stupid fluffy animal with an old guys voice over... advertising some bank or something... MAJOR SNORING.

Ahahahaha =) You do have to give it to the marketers. I'm a sucker for advertising though :S Like the new sprite campaign :O GOOD WORK. I wouldn't buy sprite just because of the ad, but thumbs up :)

Ahahahaha I like :P Let's not turn the board into a fight though. I just want a discussion :)

I agree. The marketing for it is hella smart though :) I mean really... using white headphones so EVERYONE knows who is using an iPod. Genius.

That's fine :) I'm not trying to get under anyones skin I'm just saying, before you take, be aware. At least if you know the implications it is fair enough to be like 'I want to do this anyway'.

Then why don't you refute it with scientific evidence yourself?

Firstly- I wasn't "advocating" alcohol. I was having a laugh in the first place when I said that alcohol was fine. I also said for ME. I didn't say everyone else go out and get sloshed out of their minds etc. I personally know the risks, and that is fine with me. If others don't then they...

Not eighteen yet But at parties I have had a bit more, and of course we all get smashed once in a while. That's not the point though, I know the risk, I feel like taking it. And that's fine. It's drugs that can cause unknown effects that worry me. I know the worst that can happen from...

One standard drink. That is pretty much nationally (almost globally give or take a few) accepted as an acceptable amount. Binging on anything generally has major consequences.

You have to take into mind the context it was written in. The patriarchal superstitious etc etc etc....

Ahahaha I like that point :) This is an interesting discussion :) I guess the point is though, that some risks are what I would call... personally acceptable ones. Others are just unnecessary. I guess I'm biased because I'm not interested in drugs at all :S

Yes, but we all know those risks. And we also know that alcohol is not harmful in small 'doses' As for other drugs... there isn't as much known. Making it possibly far more dangerous.

Yeah but what defins 'invention' I mean, when I think of invention I think ORIGINAL TECHNOLOGY. iPod was basically (and I'm not saying it was any less ingenious) getting a mini hardrive and sticking it into a portable player. Which sort of detracts from it being an invention... They are pretty...

I actually forced myself to read the Bible. And although I don't really believe in instiutional religion, it was worth it just for the insight into other people's beliefs. And the messages are useful even if you aren't religious at all. Some of it is quite insightful.

Not an iPod fan to be honest... And you can't really call it an invention :P It's more like... combining two technologies.

Means POSSIBILITY. For sure. Does it matter? Not everyone who smokes weed will get schizophrenia... but the POSSIBILITY is enough to make me think twice.

LOOK at the evidence. Then make up your mind. I'm seriously not trying to tell anyone what to do in terms of taking drugs, I just worry that people don't realise the possible implications.

From what statistics? Are you telling me that if I have a jagerbomb it is worse than having a joint? Bearing in mind- the effects of alcohol are well known... whereas with weed it is still largely unknown.

Ok, I'll dumb it down. If there is no link between weed and psychosis... none at all then why would people be seeing links in the first place? Dubious or no, there are links PERCEIVED and therefore, whether they are doubtful or concrete fact, you have to accept that there is a POSSIBILITY.
