How do you go homeopathic with cannabis? Do you keep mixing it with oregano until you're just smoking oregano with no pot in it?

Cannabis is somehow a panacea that not only prevents but CURES cancer. I've gotten that claim on Facebook before.

You probably just put a drop of THC or marijuana extract in water and then dilute it until it's literally just water.

To demonstrate, I've included a picture from a movie about a man who is destroyed by his obsession.

quote:

Chose bisexual, but i'm actually demi-sexual. I tend to prefer women and give men the cold shoulder though. I'm a nerdy person, down to earth, I know how to have fun and I enjoy receiving and giving respect to other people regardless of background. I also love learning about cultures and experiencing them. I love cute things. I'm looking for local friendship.

My main hobbies are video games, anime/light novels/manga/visual novels, and reading in general. I also have a tumblr.

I consider myself a social justice warrior: I really like petitions I can agree with. I tend to think a lot about what's right or wrong. So it goes without saying that I'm interested in politics, philosophy, human rights and laws to an extent.


What i'm really looking for is local friendship. Anyone's fine, if you can grab my attention. Don't let long distance stop you from giving me a poke. Just don't poke my tender spots which shall remain secret for now. ehehe. :>.

What I’m doing with my life
Following interests, being a good person, nothing materialistic. I don't care about big bucks. I also would love to travel to a few places. I really want to go back to school.

I’m really good at
Empathy, listening, talking, being rational, figuring out what's right and wrong. Most would say I'm good at video game, figuring computers out and being patient, but I can't really agree. I'm just a reasonable person who researches what he needs to know.

The first things people usually notice about me
An air of confidence, my polite attitude, my straightforward attitude and my charm. Not that I ask people this question, but they tend to just blurt it out.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food

I don't really have favourites of anything. I'm more of a "I'm in the mood for [so and so]" type of person. I tend to stick to what people usually consider geeky though, as I've written in my summary. But to expand on that, I love sci-fi and fantasy. I also like psychological themes. Romance is my guilty pleasure now and then.

As for music, I tend to listen to music for getting me moving, motivated, so anything that's upbeat. I don't often enjoy rap and hip-hop. Country isn't worth mentioning and dubstep is grating.

The six things I could never do without
My hands, my fingers, my legs, my feet, my speech, close friends and the internet.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Morals, friends, things that are stressing me, my health and work.

On a typical Friday night I am
Working, currently.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Oh, i'll admit anything. I wouldn't admit private things publically like this though, that's up for people to find out for themselves. I'd rather see people's expressions when I tell them this stuff, because it's usually hilarious. Ahhh the disbelief, aaaah the laughter, they look kinda turned on. Obviously, the most private things are sexual things, huh.

I’m looking for
Everybody
Ages 20–33
Near me
For new friends
You should message me if
you wanna learn more about me, want a good and honest friend who doesn't judge you or try to dictate how you should live. I'm am however very opiniated though. If I disagree with something, I will say so but I in no way expect you to adhere to my way of thinking(I don't bother agreeing or disagreeing about spiritual beliefs though, that's just wrong). In the same venue, you should message me if you are interested in deep and inteligent conversations as well as arguing about this and that.

I'm also open to pretty much anything. I like exploring what life has to offer. I am only as mobile as public transportation permits though.

If you're looking for just a booty call, I don't want to hear from you. One night stands are a bore and I can only have sex with people I connect to on an emotional level. Perhaps the same could be said for a connection on an intellectual level. This rarely happens with men, I apologize if I act disenterested, guys.

And depending on where you are, good loving luck getting any expansion to the already overtaxed transit system approved. If it's not bullshit traffic or economic analysis that a fifth-grader could find the flaws in, it's counties/cities bickering over whether or not the metro system can operate within their precious borders (especially if the county/city has its own system); if it's neither of those, it's "b-b-but that would mean we have to let the poors and blacks move freely and easily through our pristine streets!" couched in claims that it's actually all just about crime reduction. I live in the Metro Atlanta area, and god drat am I tired of still hearing "Where MARTA goes, crime follows" as if MARTA had made any meaningful expansions that weren't to multi-million-dollar venues in the past couple decades.

2.) "This is the first joke we came up with." And it's a loving real knee slapper. "Dumb and Dumber" Pinnacle of comedy.

3.) "The sad thing is you would think we would have to doctor a photo to make them looks this bad." Yep, they look horrible. "Is it a photoshop? It must be, I mean they look so bad!" says some redneck with four teeth and 36 years of beer/burger belly still growing on him.

Hell, even among the Hogwarts students most had no real distinguishing qualities and were just a blob of "Hates Harry every couple of books". At least Doctor Who says "everyone is important" once or twice even if it never really shows it; I don't remember Harry Potter even pretending to have that moral.
