Do you, or do you have friends who use marijuana often?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:The idea that drugs makes you a better artist is a fallacy that has been perpetuated by American artists. I have lots of friends who tried to get high and do a sculpture or a painting and half the time they’d end up doing either a) nothing or b) some really shit work. The whole idea of getting high is to escape. It’s no different than those who go to a park, except that going to a park is legal and getting high is not. My brother-in-law is a waste of space – he would have been better off in a tissue if you know what I mean – and he gets high every day. He’s not productive. He’s just lazy. I had friends who causally got high, and I admittedly, got high (2 years clean) and sold it for a bit back in the day. I felt that I needed a way to cope with things rather than just dealing with them. While some may not agree that getting high is an escape, I believe it is. And there are many days I wish I still did. Aargh… a post like this can’t really be that piratey.
