You really don't understand my stance on drugs, you jump to conclusions over and over and over again. Even when I'm being facetious it just goes *woosh* right over your head.

But to answer your question, honestly, without a hint of pretense, I love psychedelica music. I love acid rock, acid jazz, prog, downtempo and various other musical genres that is associated with drug culture and the drug/hippie counter-culture of yesteryears.

There's straight edge/teetotal type music out there as well but I'm not really a big fan of what I've heard. A lot of it is either too dry for my tastes or comes off as faux aggressiveness.

When you negotiate you pretty much have to expose your entire life to the people you're dealing with (Depends on the culture) so you have to be careful with the image you project to others... Sometimes to please a potential partner (One with more negotiating power) you have to come across as an asshole...

Well there isn't anything to understand when it comes to your stance on drugs, to understand it I'd probably have to be insane or on drugs myself. You don't use logic or science or morality to make your stance, you simply oppose reality because you were raised to believe in falsehoods. You oppose drug use and users, yet you benefit from them in so many ways every day regardless of your own personal distaste for drugs. You're a massive hypocrite and a fool.

Although there is almost a general consensus that hemp has beneficial uses, the existence of one or two researches does not garantee it to be truth. Not even if the study is published in a prestigious journal. Many publications tend to have mistakes that are pointed out in the future.

My point is, watch out for bad science. Also, don't fall for sensationalist headlines, they tend to draw erroneous conclusions from studies and are used to easily manipulate people. A preferred tactic for pseudoscience like homeopathy and most conspiracy theories.
