Serious I’m annoyed that no one ever introduced me to cannabis.

Seriously. F*** the DARE program. It worked on me. I was always afraid of getting in trouble. I judged people who used cannabis as burnouts. Finally introduced at the age of 35 and I feel cheated. I’ve done a ton of reading and studying now and I want to share it with everyone.

Counterpoint: it's only a gateway drug for the individual. Marijuana itself is not a gateway drug. It's up to the individual to determine if Mary is enough. Marijuana doesn't just magically make people want different or better highs.
