Cubing High on Marijuana

[beingforitself]

You have yet to defend your assertion that either Marijuana or THC cause "lung poisoning" nor have you even defined the term.

That would be because my assertion that THC causes "lung poisoning" is just as baseless, absurd, and ignorant as your assertion that Psilocybin causes "food poisoning." Psilocybin is simply a chemical that produces psychotropic effects, just like dozens of other chemicals (including THC).

a loss of appetite, coldness in the extremities, increase of heart rate, numbness of the mouth and adjacent features, nausea, elevated blood pressure, weakness in the limbs (making locomotion difficult), muscle relaxation, yawning, swollen features and pupil dilation.

Hmm a lot of those sure sound like the symptoms associated with food poisoning...

But it's not unusual for someone who eats shrooms to experience very few to none of those. Nausea is a common misconception. It does not happen every time you have shrooms. True, you CAN vomit from eating shrooms, but it doesn't happen most of the time. Elevated blood pressure is also not a garuntee, just can happen to some people.

The point is, shrooms really aren't that bad for you compared to a lot of other drugs out there. They cause clear thinking, see cool things, and in general have a great sense of euphoria for a few hours. You will also get a GREAT night sleep.

I cube, I use cannabis. I can say that while stoned I am a little slower, but actually got my personal best after smoking quite a bit. One thing it does help with in cubing is having a new perspective. I have come up with a lot of shortcuts and such just while looking at the cube stoned. I sort of see it differently. It can help.

I remember this old thread! Funny arguments.

 

[yockee]

Man, I've not been stoned in a longggg time. I'd be interested in cubing stoned. I smoked weed for 20 years, but it was all before I was a cuber. I actually used cubing as a way to help me stay clean (not from weed, hahaha, mainly heroin / crack).

Note to self. Next time I mooch my friends for weed, bring a cube.

There goes Guimond again. xD

hah good idea. Another thing though, there is a huge difference between smoking occasionally and smoking frequently. If you aren't used to the feeling, I'm pretty sure it would slow you down lots. But, on the other hand, if you use it pretty frequently, then be prepared to see things in your F2L that you didn't see before.

This actually got me thinking. Nice lmao

I think it is incredibly stupid to do drugs. Dont get me wrong i have nothing against people who do drugs but i mean i really think there is a problem with making a thread about the effects marijuana has on cubers

Why is it bad? I bet you only read the title.

 

[MiPiCubed]

if you really dont have a problem with people who do drugs then you shouldnt have a problem with a simple discussion about drugs.

Oh **** I think I have reefer madness.

Why the heck would anyone argue over whether or not smoking ANYTHING is bad for your brain? It's bad for your brain, whether you like it or not.

It is a scientifically proven fact that you are cutting off blood supply to multiple areas of the brain when you are smoking, and in addition, your brain begins to shrink and shrivel over time. I have seen (with my own eyes, from a doctor's office) the brain scans of different people including those who have smoked, and these scans showed what areas of the brain have their blood cut off. If it's not getting blood, it's as good as a hole in the brain. If you smoke, your brain is becoming much "holier-than-thou-wouldst-like-it-to-be".

I won't even start on the other adverse effects smoking has on the body. There's too many of them.

On the other hand, refraining from smoking and getting the proper nutrients to restore the brain can surprisingly quickly reverse the damage. Many people fail to get their hands on this important bit of information.

I can't answer the poll as I have hair in my eyes and don't smoke so....

Would you mind linking me to an article/paper that says this? And is this specifically nicotine smoke (a lot of these studies are), specifically marijuana smoke, or smoke in general?

I have seen (with my own eyes, from a doctor's office) the brain scans of different people including those who have smoked, and these scans showed what areas of the brain have their blood cut off.

I also would like to know what type of smoke was involved here... but also, I want to point out that having areas of your brain cut off from blood is commonly known as a "stroke" and I'm pretty sure that, while strokes do become more likely if you smoke cigarettes for a long time, they certainly aren't an inevitable consequence.
