I don't understand my friends sometimes

[b*saint]

Alright so I have 2 group of friends. One is my close friends that are very clean cut, very into German cars and motorsports, mostly engineers or business majors in boston colleges or own their own businesses, don't drink or smoke or anything of that nature, much like myself. Then there is group 2 which is everyone else that I hang out with for a couple hours every once in a while who smoke pot and get wasted and trip on drugs. Group 2 invited me out to watch a movie. Alright sure, people I haven't seen in a while it might be fun. Halfway through they all get up and drag me into this little room in the basement while they all light up and smoke pot. I'm like why did I agree to this? I don't smoke. The blunt smelled like burning oak leaves - gross. And I rode with one of these kids who now has to bring me back in an hour to get my car across town at night. Now everyone is bleary eyed and incoherent. So I wasn't very happy. One thing I can't stand is incoherent people like drunks. I want to grab them by the head and beat it into a table like Robert DeNiro does to that guy in Heat. I kinda got pissed but not really like outwardly but my friend who is the only pothead Im close with could tell. Finally the night is over and I go back over one of my group 1 friends house to talk shop and pick up a fan clutch. Today I get a message today "I feel bad we smoked in front of you." If you felt so bad then why the hell did you do it? What the hell am I suppose to say to them. "It's okay. Go ahead and get blazed all the time. I just won't hang out with you anymore." Fucking pot heads have no brains. It is true what they say about them.

Anyways. Don't smoke pot. It is childish.

Annnddd, they are stoners. They just dont give a shit about other people.

hmm

A Dr.Phil' ish advice would be:" Now you get out of those situations fast at the slightest hint of it coming up. You dont wanna get into trouble with the law since you're not into that scene"

[AdironRider]

Holy fuck man you need to chill out. You want to beat kids because theyre stoned? Its like that Robin Williams HBO special, the last thing a pothead wants is a problem, and your making much more of a problem than this is. Your not the boss of anyone, just like they arent the boss of you, so they can do as they please, its not affecting you that much. All you have to do is say "no thanks man" and pass it on. 99% of people are cool and will respect your decision. You make it sound like you dont want to be friends with this kid, just because he chooses to do something that you choose not to. Itd be one thing if they were constantly pressuring you into trying it or something, but it doesnt sound like that was the case, so leave it be. Respect their decisions as much as they do yours. Do you flip out when someone smokes butts around you? Are you going to flip out when your at a wedding and a family member gets a little hammered? I mean where do you draw the line?

Edited for the law thing ... its not against the law, at least in the states I know about (New England and NY) to be high, but just to posses pot or paraphenalia. If you did happen to get caught, you obviously werent high, obviously didnt have anything on you, and most cops will be able to figure that out.

Just to clarify Im not trying to say you were wrong for not smoking or anything (not that I see why you wouldnt want to ;)), but I mean seriosuly man the situation you were in doesnt seem like that much to get worked up about. I respect your decision for not drinking or smoking, but you cant condemn those who choose to do it, cause frankly there are more worthy causes to get worked up about.

Now I shall hit the bong.

[Diablo]

So you dont like what they do? Why are you friends with them? I'm friends with several stoners... i dont like weed and when it comes out i head home...usually. and if i dont i dont have a right to bitch. Also if im going to be hanging with people who tend to go off the deep end i always make sure i have my car so i can get my ass home...

[h0lmes]

Yeah I think you need to chill a little bit. You can't expect to live your life avoiding drugs and alcohol altogether. If you dont want to drink or smoke then fine but judging people who do is not a good thing. I think you should take a nice big hit from a bong sometime and at least see what it's all about. I used to be so anti drug but once I tried pot and did research I realized that pot is harmless fun. All the stuff they teach you in grade school really is a load of horse shit.

Naw, i aint trippin. I just think its funny when people who do not smoke weed and don't know much about it, make statements like that.

[chuckybob]

[Il Duce]
