Impaired is impaired. People take the responsibility of driving far too lightly. No one should be smoking, drinking, texting, eating while driving.

Some of that smoke you see roiling out of cars is “vape.” Which I understand even less but to each his own.

It is becoming a huge problem to find employees that can pass a drug test...even where it is not legal:

I drive a lot for work and haven't really noticed an increase in pot smoke. The number of drivers distracted by their phones has gotten truly scary however.

Phew!, i grew worried that as that list grew you'd include 'getting hummered by the wife'. I guess there is a difference between impaired driving and erratic driving.

You are spot on btw. For some reason people don't equate driving with some level of responsibilty. Further as you point out impairment has many forms.

Stoners are so slow, I cannot live in a world that slow.

It pains me to see this in town.

I want to pick them up and toss them in the trash, not sure how long it would take them to notice the relocation.

Damn kachi, that's a deplorable conservative response. A good democrat is supposed to shower them with money/love/free housing, rehab & social programs.

I wanted my slice of pizza and the stoners had ordered and would not get out of the way.

That's just not right.

Don't get between me and food when I'm hungry.

Welcome to Colorado. I took my son to cub scouts the other night and I could smell it on one of the parents.

Drive stoned at 20MPH if you want. I draw the line when you are in the left lane. That is unacceptable. Way to many left lane dicks already. But one that is stoned as well? I won't stand for it.

Wait, go back. You live in Colorado and are not stoned?

Haven't been baked for 35 years, I told myself I was done, and havn't done it since. I do think getting "hummered" was more distracting than being stoned. Fortunately for public safety, or unfortunately in my case, my wife doesn't do that any more.

Holy crap. I couldn't have said it better myself. Atta Boy!

I guess it makes things that are boring and repetitious more tolerable. Like a radio.

Weed seems to effect really smart people in a different way than it does average people, but the reality is that if you have some in your system all the time it effects you all the time.

Like coffee. Unless you get really straight for a while, you won't know what that difference is.

Like drinking. And you will still want it even though any addiction component is absent or gone.

Like smoking. Most people need to get straight for at least a year to get a head that isn't conditioned to thinking that being screwed up is normal. And then they might have to start working on the preconceived notions in their heads that are at the roots of self medicating.

Or they can just be straight, and decide to be just like they were when they decided that they pretty much knew everything about life that they ever needed to know, and keep organizing all of the facts in their heads to fit those concepts. Like that guy in the mirror.

Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey. Goes into guitar riff...

None of us around here toke up. Pretty disgusting like smoking. Having said that the in laws have done pretty well buying pot stocks in the last year.

I've been getting myself off of cigars and get grumpy once in a while.

Addiction of any kind is bad in my opinion, but it is human nature.

Everywhere we went in Vegas we could see and smell it. Didn’t think it was cool as I was with my family
