: like I've never been around weed and all it has to offer before. i'm not trying to hate on you, dude, but weed leads to a fast food job, and that's it. that shit is great while you're in high school, even college, but there comes a time when you've got to pass that shit for the last time if you ever wanna succeed.
But he's already said he's only 18. I think that comes firmly within your high school and college category, don't you? Let the kid enjoy it for a while.
As a grown up who is a stoner, I can't argue too much with you. Though I have not, nor will I ever, have a fast food job, thank you VERY much. My mistake was being an English major, which pretty much prepares you for jack shit in the marketplace. So I'm a secretary. If I were higher up on the administrative ladder, I'd give it up, but as I have enough trouble just making it through each day with all the FUCKING stupid things I have to do, I continue to smoke. When I return to the tri-state, I'll consider giving it up, but only if I get a job that's worth it.
