Know anyone with a disease? Read this

I just find it funny Chef that you are one of the biggest weed critics on TBD, yet you partake like the rest of us. Seems hypocritical but what do I know?

 

That said, it's good that you're one of us. :)

It's kind of like someone who drinks but can't stand sloppy alcoholics

 

Oh and I'm not one of you. ;)

I see. Keep it illegal except for people who have a "prescription" for a condition they done even have. Makes sense.

There's something to be said for theories like only landowners get to vote and only people who imbibe responsibly get to imbibe. Maybe I should change my screen name to Aristocrat?

Cannabis Drug Halved Convulsions in Company-Funded Epilepsy Test

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-05-25/cannabis-drug-halved-convulsions-in-company-funded-epilepsy-test

 

A cannabis-based drug halved the frequency of convulsive seizures in sufferers of a rare, catastrophic form of epilepsy in a late-stage study funded by GW Pharmaceuticals Plc.

 

The median monthly frequency of convulsive seizures fell to 5.9 from 12.4 among children with a drug-resistant form of Dravet syndrome who took the company’s Epidiolex cannabidiol oral solution. That compared with only a slight decline among patients taking a placebo. Results of the randomized controlled trial -- by researchers in New York, London, Chicago, Philadelphia, Miami, Paris, Melbourne and Boston -- were published Thursday in the New England Journal of Medicine.

I read that yesterday.

 

Question is. Why is it a thing now?

 

Just because it's now legal in many states thousands didn't just start smoking and driving.

 

I smoked frequently in my 20's and 30's. In that time I was never in nor did I cause any accidents. I don't think that I'm of a rare breed (though some may think so B-) )

Do you drive better when you're drunk too?

Better? No, but I'd drive knowing the booze slowed my reflexes. I probably haven't driven drunk since I was 26.

 

I ended up as the DD to take my wife and friends out drinking, (reaping the rewards after) and or hauling the wife and kids.

 

After a decade or so of being the DD I lost any interest in drinking. I'll have a beer or Strawberry Daiquiri on occasion. Pass me a joint and I'd be happy.

What do you do with all your umbrellas?

Good one Spicoli. Any studies showing increased accidents from loser coffee drinkers?

Yes:

A new study shows a staggering 80% of all car accidents and 65% of near misses are caused by distracted drivers more focused on their burgers than the road.

"Distractions like eating can become a problem for drivers who can't react quickly to a sharp curve," according to a study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

In addition to burgers, the study has ranked the worst foods to eat behind the wheel based on a survey of drivers.

Coffee is the worst, bringing new meaning to the adage "don't drink and drive."

Are you stoned again? Because it sounds like you're stoned again.

 

You do realize that there is a difference between reaching for a coffee cup and not looking at the road and being "stoned drunk" from drinking coffee right?

I would make them at home or a family function.

Stoners are too paranoid to take their eyes off the road for too long.

 

:ph34r:

Drinking coffee, soda, eating a burger call all be distracting, but nothing beats spilling hot coffee in your lap.

 

This is almost a pet peeves post

 

I see dozens of people Texting every day. I never see someone smoking a joint while driving.

 

Q - In the morning, how many women do you see putting make up on or combing / fixing their hair?

I once saw someone knitting while driving. I don't know what's so urgent about knitting that you have to do it while driving.
