Though I will clarify that if a person never tries alcohol or marijuana in their entire life, and their only reasoning is because it is "harmful to their body," I would think that a bit silly way to go about viewing life
But it is their right to do so. I can't say there's anything really wrong with that, just silly.
Well, given that you're judging them to be silly based on their behavior, I'm hoping you'll forgive me for judging people to be silly for habitually consuming toxins that have been scientifically proven to destroy their bodies in any number of ways.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger asked lawmakers Friday to eliminate the state's welfare program starting in October and dramatically scale back in-home care for the elderly and disabled as part of his May budget revision to close a $19.1 billion deficit.
The Republican governor also proposed cuts to state worker compensation. Besides asking for a 5 percent pay cut, 5 percent payroll cap and 5 percent increased pension contribution, Schwarzenegger has proposed cutting one day per month of pay in exchange for leave credit.
The proposal would affect all state workers under the governor's authority, regardless of whether they are general fund or special fund employees. Employees would not be able to cash out any of this unused leave credit when they leave state service. The plan would replace the three-day-a-month furloughs, which are due to end June 30.
Schwarzenegger said the sour economy, the failure of the Legislature to make cuts he proposed in January and the federal government's failure to come up with about $7 billion leaves policymakers with no choice but to make deep cuts.
Schwarzenegger also proposed eliminating state-subsidized child care for all but preschoolers as a way to reduce the state's education funding guarantee.
"We literally have to take the ladder away from the tree and shake the whole tree," he said. "We're left with nothing but tough choices. ... I know how many people are suffering out there and how tough this is going to be."
He did not respond directly when asked if his proposal to eliminate welfare was merely a negotiating position with the Democrat-dominated Legislature.
Schwarzenegger also said he would not sign a budget plan unless lawmakers agree to overhaul the budget process, including creation of a "rainy-day fund" and downsizing public employee pensions for new hires.

Drugs.
I mostly had cigarettes in mind with that comment, though.

I'm judging them because I think they are missing out on some great things in life for a silly reason.
What are they judging me for? Not living as long as I can? I don't see that as an automatic positive.

oh yeah
I was just obliquely saying that fast food and a lot of other shit people consume or enjoy on a daily basis are also bad

Lung cancer is a pretty shitty way to die, even aside from considerations of life longevity.

Alright well then we're getting into specific drugs. I was talking in general, as the conversation started in reference to straight edgers and people with a "My body is a temple" attitude.
I actually think cigarettes are pretty shitty so I can at least understand that specific concern. I do have a problem with a lot of the attitude towards smokers, but yeah.

Well, I mean take your pick. Cocaine, heroin, and meth don't exactly have happy endings either, if you use them habitually.
Stuff like weed or mushrooms or whatever I'm fine with, since the overall damage seems to be pretty minimal. And keep in mind, this all pretty much stays in my head unless I'm specifically asked my opinion on it, and even then I usually say "Do what you want, I don't care." But deep down, I tend to think most smokers/hard drug users are pretty silly.
holy fuck, I'm in like hardcore panic mode. The urge to balance myself through food or marijuana is so high right now, but objectively I know that these aren't the correct responses.
But I'm also thinking, so what? Sitting here and trying to ignore it isn't helping. It just makes me angry.

Wait, you're not trying to do this on purpose, are you?
Imminent danger to self or others
edit: don't quote me on that, i'm guessing
:O
haha no, i just don't want to accidentally trigger it.
are you talking about fast food
dear everyone in california:
run while you can
don't stop to pack
Well in that case, I'm guessing (hoping) you don't have anything to worry about on the child molestation front.
have you ever had a big mac... on weed?

Correct, sir.
nah that's chocolate.

Man. Shit. Maaan.
I would happily pay some more taxes to keep safety nets like welfare in place, especially during tough times
oh yeah
I was just obliquely saying that fast food and a lot of other shit people consume or enjoy on a daily basis are also bad
Seriously, I keep on saying, now, more than ever, we need to be supporting eachother.
But noooo everyone just wants to get theirs!
"Take it easy, have a nice weekend! By the way, no more welfare!"
do you
want to get mine
makes it less likely for the news networks to mention it
america is so fucked
no matter what organichu and his well-traveled eye says
Well, I want to get mine. Let me be clear. But if I can have mine and help some others get theirs, that's cool.
I thought you'd never ask.
Ask what your country can do for you!
Oh yeah, that's legit. When I say "get theirs," I really mean "theirs, and then anything else they can also get, no matter the need."
Is there anything else states can be cutting or is it pretty much a choice between cut services/raise taxes.
On the black screen
paterson is busy ripping new york state's educational system to shreds
so there's that
ideally
it would be a combination of both
but liberals hate service cuts
and conservatives hate tax hikes
so doing the smart thing and using both together pisses everyone off

I'd be down for a little balance by increasing a few taxes.
what's that
I was asking if there were better things we could be cutting before we start on education and welfare
also
