I want to hug Ian McKellan long and hard. #madonna

Jim Gaffigan maybe?
We don't have anyone as adorable and funny as Alan. That I can think of anyway. #madonna

Also, when I read that thing from Joss Stone, I thought, ugh, that's pretty standard for a 17 year old girl. Then I realized she's 22. #madonna

Well, of course not. As Madonna would know, Jesus' parents were Mary and God, so she'd have to go to Bethlehem (where I hear it's hard to get a room at the Inn), and then heaven. #madonna

And clearly I am lying when I say I don't smoke anything at all anymore because I was so over getting sick every month.
Right. I think I smell smoke because I am lying about smoking but also my pants are on fire. #madonna

My best friend and boyfriend used to smoke pot, but now they don't. Apparently when they did it all the time it was really relaxing, but now it makes them super paranoid and shit. And my boyfriend was tired of it because he felt it was keeping him from doing anything with himself. I'm not saying everyone is like this, and certainly you can be successful and smoke pot and do other drugs, but the assumption that because *some* people do *everyone* must, drives me up the wall. People are different, and to assume that everyone is just like you is so ego-centric. #madonna

So, you're definitely not alone when reading statements like that. It makes me angry too that people think weed it the best shit in the world and that its harmless.
One of my good friends stopped smoking it recently because she said it made her dumb as shit. She couldn't even form a sentence together some days.
Some people, when they abuse alcohol do beat the hell out of each other, fine, but sometimes when people are high they do things just as bad. Like driving and getting into accidents (for example).
Weed is a drug not a herb. If it was a herb you'd be putting it in your tea not in a little roll. #madonna

And not everyone who smokes pot is a stupid stoner - not everyone who drinks is an alcoholic. Please.

Everyone I know who smokes is pretty much "a stupid stoner" and do make pretty stupid remarks like Joss Stone just did.
She's saying its just and herb and its harmless and because she does it that means everyone's doing it, so obviously she's right. I'm saying she's wrong.
Good for your friend for combating chemo with it instead of using it for recreational purposes. I know sometimes it benefits people who are blind as well, that's great, but to use just for the sake of getting high to say that its harmless when you do so and making it seem like the greatest thing one earth and claiming that everyone's doing is pretty stupid. I've seen what its done to my friends so I'm entitled to have negative opinion about it and pardon me if Its hard for me to see it as a tool for healing.

don't get me wrong, i used to smoke cloves, and had a brief period where i smoked pot, but i don't anymore and why the fuck would i or anyone else lie about that? it boggles my mind a bit.
i definitely don't judge either, it would be nice to meet like-minded people (i.e. people who only drink) but either way, having heard enough smoker's shame for myself and others to last a lifetime, what people do on their own time isn't really my business. #madonna

My flatmate, on the other hand, gets crazy. He gets so hyperactive, and it's frustrating/hard to be around him. It's interesting too, because we both have anxiety, and take the same meds for that, and I have ADD (and take meds), whereas he hasn't been diagnosed or anything, but he has a lot of symptoms. It's interesting to observe the difference in reactions, anyway. #madonna

because there's NO WAY a woman's sexuality can exist except for the men around her, right?
ARGH.

I hope all of you HATERS out there know that it is a **very rare** female that HAS NOT dumb some random stupid text or internet stunt.
Hang in there Carrie.
NO ONE THAT MATTERS GIVES A DAMN.
Hmmmm. I've never done a stupid random internet stunt, so I wonder if the US Fish& Wildlife Services will put me on the endangered list? My kind is very rare! We must be protected!
Also, Fred, I hate to break this to you, but **males** do stupid things over text or on the internet, too. #madonna

In the beginning, pot made me laugh my arse off. Eventually, though, it made me paranoid, lazy, and depressed. Funny how I felt better after I stopped... #madonna

Saw my dad become addicted to pot -- he can't even laugh if he's not high anymore -- and now seeing it happen to my brother. No way I'm not going to be smart enough to avoid *that* road.
I won't interfere with your right to do whatever you want to your body (as long as I don't have to inhale your second-hand smoke), but don't tell me I'm a liar.
Not impressed. #madonna

cute stoner jokes there, but i'm not crazy about what smoking does to my lungs...be it cigarettes, pot, or anything else. so when i say i don't smoke weed, believe it. my personal belief is that people should indulge in massages. hard to been the sh*t out of anyone after a massage.
xo,

Not a great advert for the weed to be honest... #madonna
