Do you know your unreasonable about....

Discussion in 'Marijuana Consumption Q&A' started by HighFoSho, Feb 15, 2014.

  1. something ? Anything ? But you just can't help it ?
     
    Is their any subject that, for whatever reasons {possibly your upbringing, traumatic or otherwise, very negative experiences in your life} > you simply cannot rationally, consider both sides of a subject ?
     
    Alright, so I have a boss who, if he hears the word marijuana, he immediately gets totally fired up, pissed off, and I'm sure has an instant spike in blood pressure ! I mean, you could try to tell him you read a story about how marijuana helped some small suffering child with life threatening seizures ..... but it won't matter, because if you have said the word marijuana, he's already 100% negative about the subject. He'd definitely say that article was a lie, propaganda, bull shit, etc....
     
    ^ Stupid, right ?
     
    But what's also just as stupid, is that I am exactly the same way about alcohol. I mean, depending on the time and place, if somebody mentions alcohol within earshot of me, it is pretty typical for me to instantly bust out with, "FUCK alcohol ! Don't get that shit or your drunk, stupid ass anywhere near me" !
     
    It is just SO hard for me to consider good, reasonable people, drinking in moderation, with a totally positive outcome. I mean, I know it happens, but I'm so ef'ing blinded to this.
     
    Just like my boss ! I guess we are both fucking clueless idiots...........
     
    Your thoughts ?
     
     

     
  2. but alcohol is bad, weed isn't. don't get me wrong I smoke I drink but facts are facts
     
  3. Lol I smoke and drink only at parties. And it pisses me off when people are racist or sexist or homophobic or any type of hate. I get pissed off
     
  4.  
    Although I completely agree, your sure not helping me to be more reasonable :) LOL
     
  5. I was saying that I agree with u weed enhances the moment but alcohol makes the moment less enjoyable in the long run
     
  6.  
    BongHits, those are "strong" subjects that do tend to fire people up. Personally speaking though, I feel like I can discuss those things with a much more open mind, than I can alcohol. I mean, its true that homo-phobes and racists, are clueless idiots, but for whatever reason, I am more likely to laugh at them, than to get really pissed at them.
     
    I guess if I were gay, and had been targeted / harassed because of it.... or, had been discriminated against for my skin color / race, it might be harder to brush those things off.
     
  7. No, I got you, We are on the same page :)
     
  8. I hear you, and idk why it bothers me haha, I'm a straight atheist white guy. But I feel like there's no point in wasting time on hating someone for a reason that doesn't matter
     
  9. The one side I see is this....Jonah Hill "cannot act". Nobody can possibly convince me otherwise.
     
  10. I totally see how people can drink in moderation and be fine about it. I only drink once a week and when I do it is usually just 2-3 craft beers. I don't even drink for the alcohol, just the beer. I am a connoisseur of fine beer lol.
     
    I like to think I am open minded about everything but there are certain hard drugs that I can't agree with. I will hang out with people who do them because I do keep an open mind, but from witnessing the path some of my friends took and where it left them (one is 6 feet under from an OD) I just cannot agree with those drugs. I am cool with people doing anything in moderation, but some people can't handle the concept of moderation like I can and weekly use can become daily use before they even know it.
     
  11. American Football. Hate it with a passion.

    Stick to the green

  13. I'm extremely unreasonable when people say things like "Acid damages your chromosomes" and such related bullcrap.

    It is my custom to weigh and analyze all sides of a given subject.  Honestly, (and this might sound like I'm sucking my own dick), I endeavor to be reasonable about everything -- particularly those things which tend to divide people.  Fundamentally I think this is a good thing, but it does cause a tremendous amount of internal conflict, among other things (second-guessing, muddled opinions, etc...)
     
  15. To be honest there really isn't anything that annoys me that much. Obviously I have my pet peeves, everyone does, but most of the time I just learn to live with it.
