we do need a new name for people who smoke weed but can control themselves and arent ignorant to their surroundings.

what are other names people use to describe them?

Grieves · 04-19-2009, 05:20 PM

Assassin. Now there`s a pejorative term for a stoner.

undeveloped · 04-19-2009, 05:43 PM

should it be relating to being at peace, being happy? it has to be a name for people who are smoking for enjoyment and for people to relax.

Grieves · 04-19-2009, 05:50 PM

why does it matter, do you have a name for people that drink peacefully.. no...

we are people who smoke pot...there are too many other variables to classify someone based on something as asinine as what substances they consume...

i always thought that you were a pot head if you smoked by yourself just for the hell of it and a stoner was just a social smoker?

I am not a stoner, nor am I a pothead, and even though I do have a doctor’s recommendation to use cannabis, I do not even refer to myself as a medical marijuana patient. My responsible an infrequent use of cannabis does not define me anymore than eating bread makes me a bread-eater, or taking my dog for a jog makes me an athlete, or my prescription for Lipitor and low dose aspirin makes me a heart patient.

I do believe however, that a person’s overindulgence or dependence on any substance CAN define them. Just as someone who runs marathons has earned the title of “athlete”, so does a person who regularly drinks on the job and while driving has earned the title of being a “drunk”, and someone who goes through an ounce of weed as fast as they can may be termed a "pothead".

A six-pack of beer typically lasts about a month in our refrigerator, an ounce of pot will last my wife and me six months, but a half-gallon of ice cream will only survive for ten minutes in our house. I guess we all have our vices, and far more people die of complications due to cholesterol than Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol . So if I had to define myself based on my overindulgence or dependence of a substance, a more apt label than “stoner” for me would be “lard-ass”.

I love you

pothead and stoner have very lose definitions. they pretty much mean that you smoke weed. anything further then that, positive or negative, is just personal connotations.

Pothead or Stoner are slang words used by ignorant people who are afraid to use. Too bad for them. Don't knock it until you try it.
