    Makes as much sense as words like alkie or wino. How do you know if it's not conducive to productivity if you haven't tried it? Pot can be conducive to creativity which can lead to productivity.

    Judges smoke it, even lawyers smoke it."

    By the way, don't you think Bob Marley was very productive?

    Speak for yourself. It’s not the same that it was when you were spiking the ball against them UCLA beyotches faces. It’s a lot different. Some strains will have you productive as shit. Others not so much. I find that the highly concentrated THC like in Vape Pens or the shatter (dabs) whatever you wanna call it, wax I don’t know...that stuff has me doing all kinds of productive shit. Too each his/her own though.

    Stoners is like saying alcoholic, implies someone is smoking ( or drinking) all day everyday. Most people enjoy on occasion, maybe weekends only, some s little every evening to relax. Like a beer or two. The old propaganda is pretty set in you.

    I suppose we have to be called something,.. I've always been ok with 'stoner',.... 'doper' is an insult.

    Alkie and wino are stereotypes, just like partier, stoner, etc....who cares?

    In an artistic sense? Sure. Physically? Not as much as he might have been if he'd stopped smoking. But we'll never know.

    I have no doubt that pot helps some people to be more creative. That's isn't what I was referring to when I said productive. I knew kids in high school who smoked, 2 college roommates who smoked, and have employed and fired plenty of people who smoked. None of them were people I would consider "productive". They and you all should do as you like. I don't care if you want to mainline THC, cocaine, or heroine. For me, there is no interest in changing my brain chemistry through drugs and before you start, I have eliminated alcohol from my life.

    It's a personal choice but it's absurd to suggest that anyone who smokes pot regularly is functioning at a top level.

    Do you think a man who drinks 2 glasses of red wine a night is not functioning at s top level? Asking for a friend.

    Do you think a man who drinks a 6 pack and a couple of glasses of whiskey a night can be productive? Asking for a friend.
