No one smokes an entire joint and doesnt anticipate being high, any more than someone takes 3 shots and doesnt expect to be drunk. If youre discussing moderate use.. 1 hit, like 1 beer, will have very little effect on a person.. Smoking an entire joint though (which isnt a fast process and cant be equated to drinking a single beer)[QUOTE="DarkBalta_basic"][QUOTE="Pixel-Pirate"]
It sure does....if you drink alot.
One glass of beer will have very little to no affect on the average person. 1 joint will have an affect on most people.

I'd say the main difference is why would you even take a hit if you arn't trying to get high? Smoking it serves no purpouse other than the high it gives.
I drink beer because I like the taste. I get no affect from the alcohol nor do I wish to get drunk.
You drink beer because you like the taste? How can you automatically assume no one wants to smoke because they like the smell/taste? I'm just as justified for calling your reason BS as you'd be for calling mine out. But I'm not going to call your reason BS, because it's legitimate. However, cannabis is more symmetrical in those terms (why people do it) with alcohol as opposed to being less symmetrical in terms of you trying to equate one beer with one joint? Please don't get inside people's heads on this thread with misinformation like that, and please know exactly what you're talking about before you talk about it. Smoking cannabis serves no purpose other than to be high? Basically. You don't smoke it just for the sake of smoking something. However, it seems you made that statement as if it had negative connotations attached to it, but I don't see literally how it's anything other than just a plain statement. People smoke to get high. Bingo, any arguments here? There is no argument that Prop 19 won't make money. New business outweighing lost business. And that's just about making additional money, I'm not even taking account the money saved by legalizing this. There is no argument that Prop 19 won't keep more people alive. Saved lives outweighing taken. Maybe little Jimmy will wander into a cannabis manufacturer and manage to be the first person in all of history to OD on this "dangerous drug" marijuana (though he'll need help smoking more pounds of marijuana after he safely passed out from being too high), but guess how many people aren't being shot and killed over something so stupid? Just for that reason alone should make any decent human realize how ridiculous this is. WhoTF has the standpoint of "Well, at least we're not giving a bad message to our kids, that balances out people DYING over a PLANT." But I invite anyone to try using that, negating the blatant fact this country has already been giving a far more detrimental message to our kids when we tell them how much more dangerous cannabis is. Because when kids learn that if you do an illegal drug like cannabis you'll chill out and laugh harder at a movie. This is after they learn that if they did a legal drug like alcohol, they might beat their kids. And we wonder why kids are so messed up. I smoke and I'm harmless. Cops know that and take advantage of trying to seek out and bust people like me while pretending that they didn't hear the police radio call of a shoot-out at a gas station, or robbery in a nearby neighborhood. Because it's easy, and it's safe. Our own policing of our own country isn't even satisfying their standard because of miniscule BS like this. Also, someone else on this thread mentioned they can't imagine a cop busting inside someones home just over them smoking pot. Wow. Do you know that I've read several stories of literally the SWAT busting inside someones home, killing their dog in front of their own kid (more mental damage and traumatic stress than any amount of pot smoking in front of the kid could EVER do. I'm attaining my BA in Psychology so please feel free to argue that point with me if you want.), and finding out that they didn't even smoke, much less sell or anything? One time they got the wrong house completely. Another, they didn't even realize it was the mayor of the town they were in. And these are all just the ones that involve "wrong house" and "killing family dog" (just for existing, mind you. Not being aggressive in any way, shape, or form). That's just a drop of water in a big pond of these cases happening every day. You can't imagine cops doing this because you're absolutely oblivious to it. When you're actively pursuing these type of stories, you're immensely overwhelmed at how absolutely ridiculous and mind-boggling all of this is. Over a plant. A plant that, when smoked, nothing bad happens. You can't drive if you're a 10 after drinking. You probably can't drive if you're a whole lot past a 5. But you can, however, still (even though I'm not condoning it, I just like how different it is from a dangerous drug like alcohol) drive even if you're ripped out of your skull from cannabis. And that's just if you're blazed. If you're just a casual high? Wow, well, I don't care how much truth is prone to hurt on these forums, but I feel just as safe driving high as sober. Driving buzzed on alcohol? Yeah, you can do it, but you're really pushing it. And my point about this wasn't about motor skills and driving, it was a point of saying if you're trashed on alcohol, *you will not function.* If you smoked 10 blunts? Guess what? You're ripped out of your mind, but could still pull off acting somewhat normal if you absolutely had to. Also, guess again? I've got even more points, because this is so stupid that there are obviously a million points going for it. Kids can get weed easier than alcohol at the present because of the laws. If it was legalized and therefore regulated, it would be just as hard to get as alcohol (which honestly still isn't that hard, but nothing you can do about it, and certainly not if you're keeping it unregulated). As said before on this thread, drug dealers don't I.D. The guy at the register does. If you want less kids to be smoking this plant, then you're actually for legalization and regulation, whether you're actually aware of it or not. As far as more people smoking and driving and crap because of it? Wow. You realize the legality of a substance doesn't correlate with whether someone is gonna be doing that or not, right? If John is someone who would like to get high to go to a party, guess what? He probably already has. Do you know what Jamie is doing if she thinks she can go and drive while high? She's probably out on the road right now. Sure, there is a mass of people who choose not to smoke because of the law, but would partake if changed. Well, these are also the kind of people who are probably not going to be driving high and getting into trouble after legalization if it was for the law in the first place that kept them ethically from doing it. Sorry this was long, late, unorganized and maybe a little unclear. But those were all points I wanted to throw out after reading every post in this thread. I'm so ashamed to live in a country with people so absolutely brainwashed. If you want to say anything about this, LOOK IT UP. And I don't mean just on the internet, I'm talking about your local library and college library database. It seems this is what a lot of people for Prop 19 have done, but clearly not a lot of those opposed. If you don't like any drugs because you live your life fine without them? That's great. I respect your lifestyle. If I don't smoke cigarettes because I don't want lung cancer, if I don't drink because I don't want liver failure, but if I consume cannabis because I live my life fine choosing to be high when I want to be? Then that's great too. Respect my lifestyle and the others like me, not inhibit it.Right now does it matter? Wii ain't got any RPGs at the moment...it would have been a great idea when the Wii came out but now 3yrs on and Arc Rise and Monster Hunt are coming this year the idea is a little too late.stike22Ha, didn't consider how OLD the Wii actually was. Wii 2 opening release potential maybe? I actually just read about one RPG they're making called Fragile.. looks like a mix between Silent Hill, Luigi's Mansion, and anime. I'll pass and wait for something a little bit more enticing.
EDIT: which apparently was already released? still looks crappy though.
Wait, so you want an MMORPG in the Wii ____ series where you play online for free and your proof that it is possible is your dream? I don't think the Wii _____ series was made for that type of thing. A pokemon or Zelda MMO would be much better.Head_of_games
The dream thing was sort of just playing around... hope you didn't take that seriously? I agree a zelda and (ESPECIALLY) pokemon (/snap maybe?) MMO would be absolutely amazing. I also figure it wasn't made for the idea I had, but I thought it would be kind of cool regardless. I mean shoot... I'd buy it.
[QUOTE="linkoffire"]i dont understand what you're asking. granted you asked what if, then you ANSWERED what if. you havent really given anyone any room for discussion. what do you want ME to say to YOU? Actual thoughts, discussion? Not something that doesn't really mean anything? That just sort of seemed like a cheap reply. Granted my reply to yours was probably pretty cheap as well... sorry about that.Awesome contribution to this thread. Can I give kudos on this site or something, or will I just have to acknowledge that through this post to you?

What if how there's like a Wii Sports and Wii Music, there was Wii RPG? Just one of the generic "Wii" games they actually spent a ton of time making? It'd use your Mii characters and such and it'd just be this entirely generic MMORPG game, but it was (relatively) cheap and the online would be free. Yet, there'd still be other features in it as well to appeal to people who'd be like "seriously? i don't play RPGs." Not sure what. But I had a dream about this and there were a lot of people playing SO THAT MEANS I KNOW IT WOULD WORK.
