Oh trust me, I don't think a lot of people say it meaning offence but it's an incredibly derogatory term. Ignorance is bliss tbh.

Just as someone falling about pissed might jokingly say they feel like a "****".



:facepalm:

I have literally never heard anybody say that.

Hmm yeh, I'll avoid the word in future, but I do think the definition of that word is changing/ has changed. I literally had no idea there was a meaning to that word before 'very high', it just never crossed my mind, assumed it was a word that was made solely to define that feeling haha.

But that's the thing, it hasn't changed. Mong and **** are words used to be derogatory towards people with physical disabilities, tics and learning difficulties.

So at moments when their mental faculties are low through smoking weed, drinking, taking drugs etc they'll use that same word to describe feeling "like a mong" or when they're physically unable to control themselves when pissed/stoned they call it "being a ****" or whatever. So the word is still referring to mentally impaired or physically disabled but making light of it via stoned/drunk actions that clear up after a few hours.

But, yeah, generally speaking people don't intend or realise what they're saying when they do but they're words that are highly aggravating to me. :laugh:

But, anyway, I've ranted. :joker:

Alf 02-06-2017 11:33 PM

To be fair to you Marsh, I probably shouldn't have used that word on here. I was just in the moment and didn't think. I should have used lethargic. But what's done is done now.

thesheriff443 02-06-2017 11:33 PM

A guy once asked did I mind if he did some coke, I said its your nose.
True story was having a lap dance one the the girl said do some coke with me and I will let you screw me, I said you dp the coke and Il screw you, it didn't happen, think she wanted the buzz of us both doing coke.

T* 02-06-2017 11:36 PM

Oh don't worry about it. It's the word that aggravated me really, not you. :laugh:

And that's not offensive at all. :umm2:

It's also still linked. Look up "mongoloid".

Denver 02-06-2017 11:51 PM

I dint say it wasnt offensive did i

thesheriff443 02-06-2017 11:53 PM

Il do a josy, stick to the thread subject please, smoking weed.

LemonJam 03-06-2017 12:05 AM

I smoked almost every day for 2 years oops. Achieved absolutely nothing and I don't even want to think how much money I spent on it. Barely touch it now.

andybigbro 03-06-2017 01:11 AM

I've tried it, not something I would do regularly though.

AnnieK 03-06-2017 01:57 AM

I used to smoke it daily for years....To the point where I was constantly stoned really but that just became my normal so I never felt stoned if you know what I mean. I too preferred the resin (squidgy black). Have the odd.joint every now and then now but that's it.

lostalex 03-06-2017 02:00 AM

All the cool kids are doing it.

i'm glad i'm not cool any more though. Now it makes me feel like ****. I'd much rather just drink.

Beso 03-06-2017 06:26 AM

I smoke it all day when not working.(sat and sun) will have a couple each night after work to chill out and forget the **** times ive had.....need to quit though as its becoming a bit boring

Daniel-X 03-06-2017 06:52 AM

Tried it twice. The first time I was HOWLING at nothing funny and then went really tired and ended up going to sleep, the second time I started off screaming with laughter for about twenty minutes but turned really paranoid afterwards and my anxiety was through the roof. Would do it again if every time was like the first but the second time was awful.

I've been on the blow since I was 15, 24 years. And I'm currently trying to quit it. Which is going to be hard.

I wish I never started.

Exactly the same Alf except i'm not trying to quit

Nicky91 03-06-2017 08:25 AM

i've never done it, but i was tempted a few times of using this :worry:

You certainly would not...

Jamie89 03-06-2017 08:54 AM

A handful of times at uni if I was at a party or something and it was being passed around but I never really liked it, and the last time I had it it made me sick and that put me off for good. And I had a flatmate later on who smoked it fairly regularly (like once a day/every other day) and that put me off even more... the smell in the flat, and how it effected his mood (he'd become really paranoid and just generally acted really strange/disturbed when he was high - and he was totally unaware it was doing that to him).
