Marijuana is better than a lot of things, it makes no sense that it's illegal but alcohol isn't but on the flipside of that, I cannot STAND stoner culture. If you smoke it, FINE, but if you are doing it all day every day and it's half (or more) of all you talk about, THERE'S A FUCKING PROBLEM. So many people try to glamorize it like it's some badass or cool thing to do. No, it's a drug, a better one than a lot of things but a drug regardless and if you are smoking something to make yourself feel better every goddamn day then you need to examine your life choices.
The exception being people that have legitimate medical or mental conditions and it helps them, I can't begrudge someone that. But still call it what it is (self medicating) and don't make it out like everyone should be doing it.
