Why is it wrong to party if I get all my work done?

Question

I get all As and Bs, I'm in the 10th grade, so why does it matter if I go out and get drunk/stoned on the weekends? It's not like I'm dropping out, and if it's not s******g up my future then why is it anyone else's business? Like this one chick found out I smoked pot, I didn't even tell her, someone else brought it up in conversation, and she was going on to me about how stupid it was and junk.

Answer 1

Some people dont believe in drugs and alcohol, because of the fact that it can ruin lives, but I think that if you know how to control yourself and keep the partying to a reasonable amount, you'll be cool..

Answer 2

its illegal and ruins brain cells....have good fun with conversation and cokes..

Answer 3

The commenter above me (the "pot is a gateway drug" person) is completely wrong.

You know how those "gateway drug" stats are manipulated? They take people who are ON or have BEEN ON "harder" drugs and ask them, "Have you ever smoked pot?"  Of COURSE they have, it's the (second) CHEAPEST way to get high.

When they do a study where they ask a bunch of people that they know have smoked pot, "Have you done any harder drugs?" the answer is overwhelmingly "No."  Of course those stats don't look good for the DEA, so we're fed the same old bullshit.

BTW, great fact: drug lords in Columbia and Mexico have been QUOTED saying that the "war on drugs" is the best thing that ever happened to their business. Why? Because the elasticity of demand for drugs in VERY inelastic, so illegalizing them just makes the dealers and growers richer.

Answer 4

ok ... your are very dumb/ignorant to what your doing

probably because you in the 10th grade

drugs ruin lives belive me

it is a very scary thing of how bad

pot leads to speed to cocaine to meth

ok you might not think so

but it does

i have a few friends (ex friends)

that went in that exact order

and they party all the time

and you know what will happen to them?

they will be homeless one day or messed the heck up

phisically and mentally

i knew this one guy

he made straight A's not even B's

and he didn't even make it to the 11th grade with the rest of his class

he dropped out

he thought he was too cool and people would just take care of him

and guess what he is a pot, cocaine, pill addict ok ?

ok so he did one responsible thing atleast he went to get his GED

guess what .. HE FAILED IT

so you know what keep on

go do your stupid drugs and get drunk and party

your way threw high school but you know what

you will see reality one day

and it will hit you harder then the average person

because you decide to ignore growing up with cool "drugs"

you dont need drugs to love life or enjoy it

i've tried to stop him but he got mad at me and told me

that if he needed help he would pay for it

and you know what i don't speak with him anymore

so good luck in life

and i hope you make the right
