After all, the rebel/kool kat mystique goes right out the window, it goes all commercial and popular, and all the real hipsters will move on.

:sarcasm:

1. I'll probably keep smoking pot and tobacco. I find it rare that
tokers toke for the sake of being cool. I suppose kids do, but they do that with other legal things that they can't have till they're older.

I'm guessing you're high and feeling cool?

2. No. If I were going to switch something for weed,
it would be alcohol. I love beer, though, so I don't see that happening. So if pot were made legal, I would smoke the same amount of it that I do now -- very little.

3. LOL I posted the sarcasm tag
I was just funnin' I don't care much about legal or illegal, just right and wrong and MJ is alright with me.

I smoke cause I enjoy it and it works well with recreation-reading, listening to music, video games, and most crucially movies.

4. Years ago, I knew a guy who made that argument
Edited on Tue Dec-29-09 07:51 AM by Cirque du So-What
He said that the best way to eliminate the use of pot would be to legalize it, his 'reasoning' being that marijuana would lose its 'outlaw appeal' among the 'hep cats' & 'be-boppers.' All appeals to logic were rebuffed. I realize you're kidding, but this guy was serious...seriously delusional, that is.
