@ V-Op, you answered your own question. They're living it, then.

You should do things in life to make it worth living, not just follow the same daily schedule for the rest of your days.

that sentence implies their not living it... i know they are, but do you?>_>

no I don't. Society expects people who are old to settle down to boring sterile lives, and also I don't want to look old. oh and also getting sick sucks. Right now I never get sick

You were talking about all the bad side effects and then you said only people that smoke weed can really talk about it. So I said no, scientists know about the side effects and they don't need to smoke it.
But I see, you were talking only about the "good" effects, whatever those might be. The scientists do know from a physiological point of view what happens, but I agree, they might not actually know the "feeling".

But what I'm getting from your post is that you are saying we can't judge anything until we try it out, is that right?

Hopefully I'll still be in good shape in my 40's, would be nice if I could have retired by then lol. A nice house by the beach maybe. Only one kid, a son hopefully.

And a jet ski.

And to me that's a good thing. The last thing this world needs is more bad parenting and children that will repeat the cycle with their kids.

Since when do kids even want to have children? Women have a biological clock, you'll most likely have kids, whether you'd like to or not.

I wouldn't consider people on their early 20's as "kids".
Women have a biological clock, yes, but they also have the intelligence to be able to control their impulses.

oh, that reminds me, also I never want to have kids. Don't like them very much. Another stereotypical thing people are supposed to want as they get older.

I definatly dont want to grow older

Why?

Because, I dont feel like im ready.. im still in the mind-state of a child... I love video games.. and its more taboo for a 30 or 40 year old to enjoy video games the way I do

What does that have to do with anything? Do you see any ads saying "Don't smoke and drive?" No, you don't, cause it doesn't impair you, like alcohol does.

I agree, but people in this planet are like that.

I`ve tried arguing about this (never again) but it seems that 90% of the people in onrpg smoke, and 70% of those 90 are liying.

EDIT: Not 70.... more like 85 of those 90.

Phew, I'm glad mine is in those that aren't made up "on the spot", because it tells the truth.

... Maybe it was made "on the spot" ...

It still tells the truth..

The whole point of it being "on the spot" is because it required bias, bias, bias and bias. Which it is. Most people on OnRPG DON'T smoke, I can't tell you who, and I can't give you numbers, but you just happen to see the members with more posts post about them smoking, which makes it more noticeable.
