Okay here goes I am just curious to see whom all smokes weed on this site you can vote anonymously if you wish. But it also seems that the younger crowd smokes a lot more than the older crowd. I would like to see if this is true

I will define Smoking for this poll as smoking at least one per month on average. Yes I know some of you will complain that it is too 50/50 but THAT IS THE POINT.

Okay so The age groups are kind of first one younger than High School, the second one is high school, the third one is college age, the fourth is.... well for most of us still college age but the later college years, and the last is the rest (and the best )

Please do not complain about the scientific merit of this poll because it is very unscientific and I am working with what I have

I'm 19... and yes. Not as often anymore though. When I was 16 or so I smoked up nearly every day. It doesn't have the same effect on me for some reason.

Another question, if anyone cares to answer... have you done other illegal drugs? if so, what.

oh and p.s. Hugs not drugs!

I have in the past, but it is not something I make a point of doing.. The times I have done it I was at various parties, and it just happened to be there.

I found something else called salvia, its a hallucinogen with weedlike high afterwards, and its legal, and it doesn't show up on drug tests, and this is a run on sentence. I have yet to try it but its on my list of random shit to do before I die. :greenguy:

Salvia is crazy stuff. it causes intesnce throbing of the head, and causes time to just about stop. to the point, that you cant tell if your your heart is still beating. it also is much more dammageing to the brain than pot. but its legel. and it does not come on up drug test directly but however it causes false positives.

smoked weed for a bit when i was 14, my cousin sold me an ounce for $50!! But now i hate the stuff. A lot of my good friends are stoners, so i have no problem with other people smoking it, i just don't touch the stuff myself. A few of my friends are pretty into their drugs, in particular extacy, speed, and cocaine, but it's not really my thing so i've never gotten into it. The only drug other than weed that i've tried is extacy, it was ok, but it was just a one off thing to try it out and see what everyone was going on about. The only other thing i'm gonna have a go at is chewing coca leaves while i'm in south america, that's about as hard core as i get when it comes to drugs, i'm happy with just a bottle of southern comfort.

I smoke hash. Weed comes around every so often but it costs €260 an oz but it's really good compressed stuff.

I've done nearly all the drugs at this stage but i don't seem to have had the same reaction as every body else I never lose controll and am always preaty aware of whats going on around me. I'm not touching yolks again though, no more class A's for a while now.

I not a big fan of alcohol, I think it's one of the worst drugs.

how come the cut off point is always 25 - 29 in these polls that ask age?

Last I heard all the drugs on your list were illegal, man. Maybe they've affected you more than you think.

Because the last poll that was done specifically about age only found that around 3-4 people who post on these boards are over the age of 30 therefore I wanted better resolution of the prime age groups.

That's not true at all, man. There are more of us than you think... B) But right now, yeah, the boards are full of graduates and end-of-school-year people planning their summer break trips, so there *seem* to be more of the under-22 crowd than anything else.

I smoke pot maybe once or twice a year. I've never been a huge pothead and as we grow older fewer of our friends do it, so it's never opportune. Any of the ones that still do it regularly just seem to be losers now so we don't associate with them much. I don't mind getting high with my girlfriends once in awhile, but that's about it. I have nothing against pot at all, but so many people that do it do it in excess kind of have "that way" about them.

The closest I came to other drugs possibly coke when I was in high school. I was temporarily acquainted with some drugged up loser who took me out to smoke a bowl and then proceeded to tell me he had a gun in his bag cuz he was gonna go rough up some guy that screwed him on a deal. This was the day after he'd informed me he'd gotten some girl high on coke laced weed and he wanted me to try it. Yes I was stupid enough to go off with this guy and smoke his stuff (hey no dirty thoughts! ) and never felt a f***ed up high like that before. It sucked. The guy ended up getting arrested for raping a girl shortly after this situation. After my frosh year I cut the connections with the druggies and losers and just stayed with my closest buddys.

I want to try e some day but I want it tested to make sure that's all it is. Yes, I'm paranoid. An old friend had a boyfriend that used to deal and they had some stuff and I can't remember what it was (wasn't a mainstream drug but was illegal) and I wanted to try it, so I took some to Ozfest with me one year, chickened out on doing it so I sold it.

Hey everyone.

I am a pothead! True blue stoner. Within the last year, I have only gone 3 days without smokin a dube. But don't get me wrong, I never go to work high. Im not that dumb. Im one of those stoners, thats completly heatscore. I get the reddest eyes I don't drink much ( I did alot when i was a teenager), and I did shrooms about two months ago. I'm 25 now and I think ill be smoking weed forever. It helps me sleep. Can't wait to get to Amsterdam!

Yes SV I realize this but as of right now on thi poll, 19 people have submitted, and only 2 of those are older than 26. so it appears that their would not have been that much of a point to subdived the above 26'ers. it also apears tha I could have droped the below 15's(what was I thinking ) and added one more catagory in the old fogies We Love you SV that is why I made this for you
