MARIJUANA
Hello folks I am back, with another informative egg.
This is a follow up to my "effects of alcohol" egg:
Effects of alcohol If this egg is successful I may even write one on the effects of nicotine (the gayest drug in the world).
Contents:
What is marijuana?
Positive effects of marijuana
Negative effects of marijuana
What is marijuana?
Marijuana is the dried flowers, and seeds (bud) of a cannabis plant (weed).
"What’s so fucken great about that?" you ask?
Well my friend’s marijuana contains the Non-Narcotic drug tetra-hydro-cannabinol (THC)
"Why for your mum’s sake would I want to use THC?" I hear you say.
Well, to put it bluntly, it gets you high.
Structure of THC:
"How the bloody hell do I take Marijuana?" you ask again?
Well there is several way you could do this, to tell you the truth.
Smoking: This is most likely the most commonly used method for using Marijuana, and there are many ways to smoke it too, pipes, bongs, blunts, joints, and hot-boxing (smoking in a small, confined area, so you inhale with every breath).
Pipes Pipes can be made out of glass, wood, metal, and bone.
*SHOKING INFORMAITON!!!*
Marijuana pipes work exactly the same as any other pipe! Who would have known?
You put the weed in one end, light it and inhale from the mouthpiece, its not rocket science guys (and guyettes)
Bongs There are so many different types of bongs out there its not even funny (it’s not? stop laughing).
But they work in the same way.
Weed goes here:
Water goes here:
You light the weed, the smoke goes through the water, and get filtered. This reduces smoke waste, and you can take massive hits of smoke at a time so you get baked even quicker!
Inhale here (if it wasn’t obvious enough):
Blunts Blunts are cigars, that have had the tobacco removed, and replaced with weed.
A blunt:
Joints Joints are simply cigarettes, made with weed instead of the traditional tobacco.
A joint:
Vaporization: With the proper equipment, cannabis to about 180C.
At this temperature, the active ingredient (THC) is converted into a gaseous form. with very little amount of the cannabis plant being burned.
"What is Wrong with you? who care" i hear you yelling at your monitor.
Well, if you consume weed this way, there is far less toxic chemicals which you have to inhale!
*FACT*
Studies have shown that marijuana consumed this way will give approximately 95% THC with NO toxins in the vapor!!
A vaporizer:
Spotting: Spotting is the method of heating up two butter knives, usually on a stove.
once the knives are hot, a small ball of cannabis is placed between the knives.
Smoke is then produced; the smoke can then be channeled into your mouth with a funnel, or something similar.
This method is far more efficient than a bong or joint.
Space-cakes: cannabis can also be made into an edible form, usually made into "brownies" or "space-cakes"
this method takes longer for take effect, however lasts longer.
[u]Positive & Negative effects of marijuana:[/b]
This depends on how you feel morally about marijuana, people who like it claim that weed has more positive effects than negative, however, people opposed to it say the opposite, i believe that it is worse for you than it is good, however in this egg, i will try to stay as neutral as possible.
Positive effects of marijuana:
Marijuana is said to be a "mood enhancing" drug as in it generally makes things seem more enjoyable, such as listening to music, going on walks etc.
Marijuana has pain reliving properties, and some people with severe pain, tend to use marijuana, over the more addictive medications, like morphine, and opium-based medications.
It also increases your appetite (munchies).
Marijuana gives a sense of relaxation, and euphoria.
And even higher appreciations for things like music etc.
Marijuana also has no "hangover" as you commonly get with alcohol; this has appealed to many users of this drug.
Negative effects of marijuana:
in the first few minutes of inhaling cannabis, your risk of a heart attack quadruples, this is due to the lowering of blood pressure, and pulse, and the lack of oxygen (due to smoke)
Short-term memory loss may occur.
Contrary to common belief, cannabis smoke contains 50-75% more carcinogenic compounds in it than tobacco smoke.
Smoking cannabis, has basically all the long-term effects of tobacco smoke.
THC itself has not been proven to be addictive as such; however, many users tend to get addicted to the "high".
Prolonged use, can lead to loss of motivation in all areas of life.
Cannabis has also been linked to some mental illnesses; however this does not usually happen.
-The End-
There, hopefully I covered the basis, I hope you like it, and if you don’t like the subject, please rate fairly on the quality of the egg.
Thanks Johns_face
P.s i hope you like my paintshop skills on the bong pics...i put a lot of work into them!
Dec 18, 2006 11:01 am - ...You should check your facts on the negative effects of marijuana...
None of those have actually been proven by the scientific or medical community.
For example they have proven that there is an extremely slight possibility that marijuana users may experience a temporary hippocampal lesion. On the other hand of the example, they have not and can not prove that it is addictive or that it causes short term memory loss. (So far only temporary memory loss, which means they eventually remember.)
Marijuana also doesn’t even have half the carcinogens or long-term effects of tobacco, unless you’re rolling your own cigarettes and excluding the tar, rat poison, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, etc...

Blunts
Blun s are cigars, that have had the tobacco removed, and replaced with weed.
No, no they are not.
Cigars that have had the tobacco removed and replaced with weed are cigars that have had the tobacco removed and replaced with weed.
Blunts consist of marijuana being wrapped in a blunt wrap.
Yes the similarities between a blunt wrap and cigar wrap are evident, but they are still shaped differently and blunt wraps are slightly more flexible and moist so that it’s easier to roll them. As opposed to just pulling out the tobacco and packing down the marijuana in it’s place.
*4If you’re going to all that research and make an informational egg, you should make sure the information is more like 100% correct instead of 90% correct.

LOL funny actually a blunt is cocaine and marijuana inside a cigar alot of people don’t know that because its not common anymore and the hip hop culture started callin cigars with just marijuana in them blunts but ill give you a five
Marijuana is said to be a "mood enhancing" drug as in it generally makes things seem more enjoyable, such as listening to music, going on walks etc.
i saw two things wrong with this. Marijuana is most definatly a mood enhancing drug and ive never heard of anyone really dooing anything after smoking. especially not going on a walk. besides that 5*
Dec 18, 2006 1:19 pm - Wowzer I actually did read it all !!! and you have inspired me to make some space cakes! Now all I gotta do is find an egg on how to do that :P
Dec 18, 2006 2:04 pm - nimrod, most of the information i have in the "negative" effects section, i got from medical sources.
this is what i stated in the egg, if you like the drug, naturally you will state all the positive things, and try to discredit the negitive things, and visa versa
i did not make these facts up, i did a fair bit of reasearch on it, because many of my friends use it, and i don’t because i feel it’s bad for you, not as bad as some drugs, but i am opposed to drug use.
Quote:

if you read the egg properly you would have seen that i stated that:
Quote:

and you are probably right about the blunts, but there is a method of hollowing out a cigar, to produce a blunt.
and cannabis smoke does contain a significant amount of carconagenics, however, it does more damage to the lungs because of the way it is smoked, the majority of users will inhale smoke, and hold it in for a longer period than a normal cigerette, correct? this increases the time that the delicate lung tissue is exsposed to the smoke.
AND Temporary, short-temr memory loss is still, memory loss isnt it?
here are some site that i got my information from:
THC itself has not been proven to be addictive as such; however, many users tend to get addicted to the "high".
See, now that’s just the same thing buddy. Being addicted to a drug and being addicted to the high you get from the drug are not different. And they can’t prove either, not that marijuana is addictive or that the feeling of euphoria it can produce is either.
Quote:

I know that. That is why I said, yeah you can do it, but technically it’s not a blunt, it is a hollowed out cigar.

Hmm, did I include the method of smoking in that fact? No I did not. I was talking about the actual chemical composition of the substance. If you held tobacco in just as long, it would have like 10x the effect on your lungs.
It’s carcinogens, not carconagenics.

Wtf so you think every one that smokes weed just sits inside and does NOTHING? wouldnt that be boring?
I definitely agree with that. If every single time you have ever smoked weed you have ended up sitting on your ass watching t.v or something, you should stop smoking it right now.
Dec 19, 2006 1:44 pm - wow, this fucking sucks, half this is wrong and there is no doubt it is copied,], why dont you look at a bag of weed before you make up shit when you dont even know what your talking about. This shitty ass fucking thing doesnt even deserve to be rated. Oh yea and why dont you take ur shitty eggs and shove them up your white ass once your dad gets his dick out of there
Dec 19, 2006 4:26 pm - MhF4LiFe....geez your gay...C/P-ing is a gay as you, and i ddnt C/P this egg, you can try and prove me wrong if you want, or were you just talking shit coz you cant write proper eggs? i mean i looked at your eggs/prof...and theres no pics or links...that shows you don’t know what your doing...and the higest rating you have for your eggs is a whopping 2.5 stars omg im so jealous.
word of advice, learn to write good eggs yourself before critisizing others eggs
p.s how can my dads cock be in my ass...when its in your mouth?
Dec 19, 2006 5:06 pm - theroetically anything is addicting...people have been addicted to spring water
also, ive been smoking for awhile...no addiction, still get high scores on all my test...its a harmless drug to tell you the truth. But the media doesnt want you to know that. The media tries to tell you that weed and crack equally as bad.
but always be able to control yourself with smoking...if you cant then you got a little problem.
Dec 19, 2006 6:40 pm - granted it is probalby the most safest/natural drug out there, but all drugs are bad for you, weed is just the best of the worst really, and alcohol, every one calims "alcohol kills more people than weed does" well theroeticly that is not true, its the people who abuse alcohol that does the damage...dumbasses that dunni when to say when
Dec 20, 2006 10:40 am - You see, I prefer to rate an egg by the actual outcome, not the efort involved. The content is much more important than the effort.
Jan 28, 2007 5:51 am - Very good john_face, I’m a stoner my self, after you telling me about the downcomes ect like hearattacks or what ever its put me off, but im still gona blazE
You put alot of work into this egg man i wish i could give you more than 5 i’ll get a few othjer people from msn to join and giv you 5’s
Bongs
There are so many different types of bongs out there its not even funny (it’s not? stop laughing).
That made me spit my cookies out ;( that was funny, 5************************ ************************** ********************** good work and favs!
Feb 06, 2007 8:15 pm - actually: I’m not attacking you personally but the information you got from those websites is either dubious or just plain wrong. Health organizations such as those put out information like that because that is the information they’ve gathered from the government and government funded organizations like the DEA, ONDCP, DOJ, NIDA, etc. This information is for the most part old, disproven, or in the case of amotivational syndrome described by you as a complete lack of motivation in all areas of life, are completely fabricated by the government. In 2005, the UCLA did a study that concluded that cannabis has absolutely NO cancer risk. Stating that cannabis smoke is the same as tobacco smoke is an ignorant assumption. There are FAR less carcinogens in cannabis smoke, regardless of how it is smoked in comparison to tobacco. Also, a majority of those carcinogens that are present are more efficiently evacuated by the body. I have never heard about the risk of a heart attack as a result of cannabis smoking, so until I see the statistic from numerous unbiased(NGO) sources, I have no comment, but it is my guess that it is a fabrication. I will say that cannabis can be addictive to a small amount of people, smaller a percentage than of alcohol drinkers that become alcoholics, which is about 10%. There is empirical and anecdotal evidence on my part to establish that cannabis can become psychologically addictive.
The most important point I have to make is that you have never smoked cannabis according to record, so you definitely cannot discern fact from fiction when doing research. I am an honors student and I smoke copious amounts of weed. Amotivation in correlation with cannabis use is illusory and largely based off a stereotype. The same can be said for short term memory loss. It’s not a consistent condition, but things get hazy when under the influence.

The high depends almost entirely on the subspecies of cannabis smoked, i.e. cannabis sativa, which produces a mind high with no diminished energy, or cannabis indica, which produces a bodily high, with increased sleepiness and a "stoned" feeling.
Sep 05, 2007 4:17 am - Not one person in mans history of Cannabis use has ever died directly from cannabis use, THC is the only chemical known to man that doesn’t have a practical LD50(Smoke your bodyweight in dope in 45 seconds), if you ate as much pure THC as you possibly could you would’nt die(PURE THC doesn’t exhist, Buddah is 99.8% pure so it’s near but not pure).
