What's the havoc exactly? From all the people interviewed, the ones complaining about the smoke on their way to the office seem to be losing most productivity...

Yes...

So people are mad because they lose productivity because they are too busy complaining about weed? Brilliant

That's certainly one story, but the more plausible one is that people who are more productive --and have more productivity to lose-- are less likely to smoke marijuana. Equivalently, marijuana smokers are generally less productive.

I don't know about that, I did multiple degrees and I'm working on a PhD and I smoke and use edibles all the time. I know other people who are similar.

Almost like cannabis use is independent of productivity and the lazy stoner stereotype is a drug war myth, weird huh

These are basic statistical errors you're making, which likely means either:

1. You've been enrolling in programs with a low barrier to entry

2. You've smoked away whatever you did learn.

I didn't realize neuroscience and pharmacology are low barrier to entry oh boy

I'm glad we can both agree that you've smoked yourself stupid.

So if I smoked myself stupid again, why am I a PhD candidate studying neuropsychopharmacology? You must be a special kind of brilliant

I'm glad we have computer experts like you on the internet sharing your expertise on neuropharmacology

Lol, relax. I think there's a thc gummi bear somewhere with your name on it.

I love how you blatantly break site guidelines by insulting people then jokingly tell them to relax when they get annoyed with the asinine comments
