First, see the below post.

Also, smoke it through a bong and many of the health concerns are allayed somewhat.
2. That decrease in mental activity is almost completely temporary. However, long-term habitual users (>= once a day, every day) can suffer from low-grade cognitive degradation and short-term memory loss.
3. You're going off stereotypes. I'm willing to bet there are a number of pot users that are more active than you (including myself). You only choose to believe what you've been told by others that are just as uninformed as yourself.

Next, you're just buying into government lies. While marijuana is bad for your lungs, its massively exaggerated by the gov. Also, marijuana has absolutely no lasting effects besides the slight damaging of your lungs. Just cuz I like my cheetos and I'm lazy, it doesn't make me a rumbumbumbum. >: (

My old school has a ton of people who chew. That shit is the dumbest thing ever. Why would anyone do it? It just fucks your gums, teeth, breath, etc up. At least weed gives you a good feeling.

See, this is an example of someone NOT being an idiot who buys into all stereotypes.
