For some reason I thought Jenji Kohan would be a hot arab guy...

I thought Jenji was a guy.

marijuana is not a drug

[EnigmaticNeurosis]

@penguinsoulja96 You're a fucking idiot. "A substance that has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body, in particular." Any other definition you go by, the result is the same. If you smoke enough having certain genetic characteristics, marijuana can have devastating mental effects. (I smoked for 5 years, and had depression, anxiety, sleep, and other issues until a month after I quit.) If you light something on fire, you're inhaling toxic substances.

[EnigmaticNeurosis]

@penguinsoulja96 Use a vaporizer if you're going to get high on weed. It's a much cleaner high, and it's much less dangerous to your lungs, while lowering (if not eliminating) the carcinogens you would ingest through smoking. But if you think pot is a "miracle plant," which was created by god (which everything was: including everything man makes: i.e. nuclear weapons as well) then go read a fucking book. Pot is good every once and a while, but don't let it be your life. And don't be fucking dumb

[penguinsoulja96]

@EnigmaticNeurosis i didnt say any of that shit, i just said its not a drug.

[EnigmaticNeurosis]

@penguinsoulja96 Wow. Dude. Chill out on the pot. For real. I didn't say you said any of that shit; I was spreading my own knowledge. I know your attention span and memory must be very impaired so I'll just quote the comment you should have read in the first place: A DRUG is, "A substance that has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body, in particular." Are YOU saying that MARIJUANA does NOT have a physiological effect when ingested?

[penguinsoulja96]

@EnigmaticNeurosis actually you did say that stuff. do you not understand your own argument. and as for being impaired, I haven't toked since i was in college, about three years ago. and while in college, I smoked all the time; before class, after class. even 15 min. class breaks during the summer sessions. I finished with about a 3.8 GPA and a Bachelors degree in Business with an emphasis in CSIS. ur talking out of your ass and spreading fabrications about the psychological effects of THC.

[EnigmaticNeurosis]

@penguinsoulja96 Yeah, no, you're right. Because, of course, my own subjective experience with marijuana doesn't mean shit on a generalized scale. Also, on a side note, you graduated with a 3.8 GPA? Wow. Did your professors say anything about your atrocious grammar? Did you learn anything about the effects of marijuana on a mentally-ill person? Sorry, what, no? Get the fuck out of here with your ubiquitous red harring logical fallacy. You didn't disprove any of my assertions. It's a waste of tim

[EnigmaticNeurosis]

@penguinsoulja96 Wow. A 3.8 GPA. You must be some kind of Gein-ass. And you know nothing about approaching an argument. What fucking school did you go to? A mental hospital? You should know that graduating with a 3.8 doesn't mean shit if you can't approach an argument logically. All that says to me is, "I'm a fucking idiot who happened to graduate University." George W. Bush went to Yale, that doesn't fucking mean you're intelligent. Get the fuck out of here.

[penguinsoulja96]

@EnigmaticNeurosis you're the one that clearly doesn't know how to argue. you're not even on topic anymore. we were discussing effects of marijuana than you switched to criticizing my argumentative style. and a mental hospital is not a type of school, dumbass. and you're right, i'm just like George Bush, lolz. all you're points are nonsensical, you have the logic of a 14 year old so i'm done conversing with a child.

[kope2kope]

Marijuana is a drug, and in the strictest sense of the word. Things can still be drugs and still be 100% natural like pot, just because something is a drug doesn't make it a bad thing; without drugs today, we probably would've gone extinct.

Kohan's "genius" is in doing an R rated emulation of Doonesbury. Even though the show only makes a few overt political references, it's entire style of dialogue & characterization is right out of the Doonesbury handbook. Justin Kirk even looks like a Doonesbury character.

[RunEd51]

looks like a dude.

[emcga150]

when you smoke pot you don't drink alcohol... and in most of the u.s.a you can grow it in your backyard.... yes global warming is helping pot growers

[Chaduke]

@emcga150 Most people that smoke pot also drink, at least everyone I've ever met. I do agree that they tend to drink less though. 

[BixZsc]

totally didn't know Jenji was a woman...

[MastrXploder]

schedule 1 narcotic?? how about harmless plant

[texasallamerican08]

love weeds! and weed!

[neverindoubt]

genius comes in odd packages...what a wingnut she must be, but so talented

[andyali121]

the cool thing about Jenji is that she knows all the words to the opening credits to "Wait til your father gets home" I remember this from college with her.
