2018-12-14 at 4:44 AM UTC in Smoking weed causes cancerI don't even do weed.
I'm completely unaffected by weed causing cancer.
Well, technically I may lose friends and loved ones, but I'm good to go, apparently.
Unless you're going to pull up some study that concludes that drinking 6-10 standard drinks of ethanol every single night has any potential downside, I am a happy camper.

What does this imply for us, even those of us who have used dxm extensively?
Who knows.
Pretty much everything is neurotoxic or carcinogenic these days. -

Neurotoxicity of dextrorphan

Abstract
BACKGROUND:
The noncompetitive NMDA antagonists phencyclidine (PCP) and dizocilpine (MK-801) have been considered for use as neuroprotective therapeutic agents, although both produce injury in neurons of cingulate and retrosplenial cortices in rodents. The low-affinity, noncompetitive NMDA antagonist dextrorphan has been considered for use as a neuroprotective therapeutic drug. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the neurotoxicity of dextrorphan.
METHODS:
Sprague-Dawley male rats were used and injected with either saline or dextrorphan (30 mg/kg i.p.). The animals were sacrificed 30 min later, and the brain was examined for histopathological changes.
RESULTS:
After systemic administration of the drug, hyperchromatic and shrunken nuclei with chromatin condensation and disruption were observed. Also, granular and vacuolated cytoplasm was apparent in pyramidal neurons in the retrosplenial (posterior cingulate) cortex. Status spongiosus (spongy degeneration) of the neuropil was also detected.
CONCLUSIONS:
Morphological changes are similar to those described previously, which are induced by high-affinity, noncompetitive NMDA antagonists, such as MK-801. -

Originally posted by Zanick Nah, pimp force is the means of acquiring pussy, which is the resource. You don't violate their free will if you coerce women the way it's done traditionally, that is, with great subtlety and manipulation. Basically, you're just telling them the rules their bodies have to play by and that's how they make you money. If you orient your business structure around pussy, you're not violating the rules, not even Kant's rules.
Oh you!
Except, though, that Kant considered dishonesty, under any circumstances, to be ethically wrong.
Manipulation requires at least some dishonesty, one would assume.
Maybe not.
Although I did have a friend once who was a legitimate pimp, I have no idea how he actually pulled it off.
It's all black magic wizardry to me. -

Originally posted by mmQ What do I love, you ask? Well, I love to drink, smoke, and fuck. I drink ale when I want to FEEL. I smoke cigs to calm my nerves. And when I fuck… I fuck to be the man I know I need to be, my flow of cum tells a tale of my life's past; a rich tale of sin and pain as well as pride and joy. My hot seed yearns to brings forth life, but all it does is bring forth strife. And the kids weep.
Ohhhh how they weep.
You did it!
I must put forth my thanks for your words in this thread.
We all must come forth and bring our words to this thread so that we may be more rich and wise by the time it ends its course.
I am rich for I have friends who can make their thoughts known when held back by such rules that are not at all a need for good talk. -

Originally posted by Zanick Well, I meant for "two race" to be "all not-whites" and not just mixed folk, but I was at odds with words and I made a choice, though it seems to have been the wrong one. I should have said "race two." Still, your half-black friend counts.
Yeah I do not know for sure what theme or point you had set your aims on, but that may not be a big deal. I was filled with feels, the source of which may be the drink, or may just be the whims of the night. -

Originally posted by Zanick Yeah but you gotta be a pimp first
So then the use of force is the resource?
Or is money exchanged for plastic surgery to become the ultimate male specimen (thus overriding any and all female instincts to not let themselves be pimped) the resource?
Or is the gift of gab the resource? Communication skills, I guess?
Some tangible, physical resource has to be the source of this pimp power. -

Originally posted by Flatulant_bomb Too many people fall into the paradigm of their society. Going to college is not for everyone yet it seems everyone thinks so.
I sternly believe in the value of education that college can provide.
But I would never suggest anyone look at it as a financial investment.
Knowledge is good.
Paying thousands of dollars for a piece of paper proving you possess such knowledge - that is not always wise.
Take it from someone who currently has to make minimum monthly student loan payments of over $500 per month (actually, to be honest, I haggled it down to $250... still a lot though). -

Originally posted by Zanick Guys of one race should not breed with girls of two race.
I came quite close to this, to be true.
I once loved, and made love to, a gal of both black and white seed.
No births though.
But I would not have been put off by such a thing.
In fact, these drinks I have put in me all night have caused fond thoughts of her.
So much so, that I will break the one rule of my own thread to say, I miss you Stacy. -

Originally posted by vindicktive vinny this is as retarded as saying that the purpose of eggs is to give chicken.
The purpose of eggs is to give chickens, and the purpose of chickens is to give eggs.
Just like the purpose of humans is to give eggs (different kind of eggs, but still), and to fertilize those eggs, then raise whatever the heck popped out of them - ad infinitum.
It's the circle of life, as The Lion King taught all us 90's kids all so well. -

Originally posted by Flatulant_bomb Why is everyone searching for the meaning of life? Just live niggas! You have life so LIVE! The fuck who cares what the meaning is?
That is kinda in line with what I was saying.
Intrinsic meaning is up for grabs.
But people do assign meaning in one way or another, just not necessarily consciously.
When you wake up, you (and everyone else) get out of bed for a reason.
That reason is the meaning of life.
It will differ on a case-by-case basis, but we all assign some kind of meaning to life as we know it.
So-called nihilists are really just un-self-aware frauds. -

Originally posted by ohfralala I said rational thought was the only necessary tool to properly guide behavior. I didn’t say we were all equipped with it.
But the only reason we even need to exercise so-called "rational thought", is because of how un-evolved we are.
Are starfish rational?
They literally don't have to exercise a single iota of what we call "thought."
Thus bringing me back to my original point: Emotions and consciousness are disadvantageous evolutionary byproducts. -

Originally posted by ohfralala Rational thought is really the only tool needed to properly guide behavior.
Your faith in human rationality is misplaced, quite frankly.
I like you, so I don't quite want to call you naive, because it seems a bit insensitive.
But come on! Do you really think rational thought, and rational thought alone, is what guides human decisions? Or that humans are even remotely capable of purely rational thought?
Bias influences every single decision every human being on the planet makes.
Originally posted by ohfralala If genes create advantageous organisms then those organisms reproduce and the gene passes on. So then somewhere within our evolutionary process emotions were deemed essential.
Viruses and diseases serve a purpose in evolutionary terms. Therefore emotions must also.
Or are sociopaths the ultimate evolutionary goal with everyone else being flawed?
I think you're guilty of a certain fallacy here, but I can't remember it's exact name...
But basically, sociopaths are technically at an advantage over other humans, just like viruses and diseases that kill us. But I wouldn't put that much stock into evolutionary goals.
Technically speaking, the starfish or some kind of jelly fish are the perfect species, since they haven't evolved in several millenia. They have adapted so perfectly that they literally stopped evolving.
If there is some kind of ultimate evolutionary goal, they have achieved it.
Humans ain't even close.
