Christmas Party

This past week my wife's employer had their annual Christmas luncheon followed by the open bar party. My wife only chose to attend the former, and not the latter. However, almost no one showed up for work the next day because they were all too hung over to be productive. The few that made it in were telling the stories from the night before about the drunken stupidity that was created. Of course, they were all laughing at how stupid people get when they become intoxicated and lose all sense of reality. This is funny ya know. Just like Otis on Andy Griffith.

It sickens me to watch what is accepted, and what is not. If they had been smoking that dangerous marijuana at the party instead of drinking that nice safe alcohol, all of them would have had no problem being to work the next day. Unfortunately though, if they had been smoking that dangerous marijuana, they wuld have all lost their jobs in the "drug free workplace."

What a bunch of damned hypocrites the Amerikkan people are. I remember once when I showed up at my usual check cashing place after being at my employer's Christmas party. The ladies there laughed at me for a good period after that every time I went back to cash my check there because I was under the influence. If I would have showed up reeking of marijuana, they would probably have called security or the police. We have to celebrate the birth of Christ with alcohol instead of plants that come from the Lord.

That sucks Pat, no doubt.

I'm here to say, don't take herb away from the landscapers or your yards will go to hell in a hand basket.....!

I've worked with some drunk landscapers and they aren't able to do anything, verses the stoner technicians constructing and cultivating the terra.

People who can't see that stoners are WAY funnier than a drunk,mist be nipping the bottle anyways not to see the obvious advantage.

There is a lot of interesting evidence and talk about cannabis in all ancient rituals but in this case definitely in the Judaic traditional incenses and oils.

Winter is all about EVER GREENS anyway... so when the harvest is over for the plants, It's our turn to get green

There have been periods in my life where i have gone many months in a row without smoking any cannabis. In the past 5 years, there was a couple pf periods on about 4-5 months in a row. I can always take it or leave it. I would rather just take it than leave it though. Ask any alcoholic about a period of abstainance and see what you get there. Alcohol is a much more highly addictive drug. Much more dangerous also.

I don't mind having a drink now and then, and I don't even remember how long it's been since I got drunk. For the most part, I can't stand the drinking culture.

My only nitpcik to patriot is that it's not just the American people, we got pretty much the same deal going on up here (with less drug testing).

Alcohol more fun than herb

On a rational note.... I'm not sure everyone is 'able' to smoke cannabis. Like I've met some drunk assholes in my life, but people who shouldn't be smoking, imo, are just as bad if not worse.

I haven't missed your point here Patriot, don't sweat it

Still smokin'

I quit going to company Christmas parties long ago.
Caused some hard feelings, but I would rather stay home than realise some people I liked were assholes when drinking.

Engineers are the worst. Drier than a fart in a windstorm.
AGs on the other hand know how to party.
Doctors are alright too, the seem to be the most willing to try soft drugs.

I spend waaay too much time with the edjucated folk.

Well I lived, and it was pretty short and sweet actually. Got two free pints of beer and then went to a volunteer card writing for Amnesty International. Good evening I'd say.
