And that's why Miss Owen is less-than-zero in my eyes. She's admitted, in print...and now over the Internet, that she did drugs. Maybe that accounts for the trite tone of her 'Thesis'. Maybe that's why she was foolish enough to assemble such a thing in a form so easily leakable. I don't think it takes too much Blunt-smoking, before the Formaldehyde does permanent damage. The after-effects of Cannabis are mostly not permanent. But the stupefying effect of the drug lingers for extended periods.

Doing drugs is never alright. At the very least, it is a dangerously conformist act. At worst.... well.... you could do something stupid. Like maybe you could write and share a 'Thesis', about what a depraved piece of 'hookah'/'weed'/'blunt'-smoking garbage you are.

Anyway, now I know why my kids and their friends refused to even consider Duke.

Someone smokes a joint, and she's a piece of filth?

Wait, someone smokes a joint in college, where experimentation is practically de rigeur, and that's why you think she's a piece of filth?

Talk about blowing things out of proportion.

Fake lie-detector reveals women's sex lies - 14 July 2003 - New Scientist
Women are more likely than men to lie about their sex lives, reveals a new study. Women's coyness about their sexual behaviour was unveiled by a US study involving a fake lie detector test.
In surveys since the 1960s, men typically report having more sexual partners and than do women - a statistically impossible feat. For example, British men boast an average of 13 partners over a lifetime compared with an average of nine partners for women.
Scientists previously explained this anomaly by suggesting men were exaggerating their tally, while women were understating their total. But now Terri Fisher at Ohio State University and Michele Alexander at the University of Maine suggest that men are in fact more truthful in such surveys.
Women change their answers depending on whether or not they believe they will be caught out not telling the truth, the researchers found.
I mean why do people continue to say things that simply are true. Some men lie too, true, but not systemically like women about this issue.

I love it, she has no problems with this dame sleeping around yet marijuana is the devil's work. Then again she also thinks there's a wide conspiracy to wipe us whites off the face of the planet, so I guess anything goes.

I don’t. It takes 2 to tango. Women talk, whether it’s over the internet or not. They knew what they were in for (maybe not to the extent it reached but still) when they hopped into bed with her.

Let's spread herpes even more!!!

I don’t know about you, but I practice safe sex.

I don’t think it’s a trend, it’s something that has always been there but it’s finally reached a point where it’s almost ok for women to just have sex without wanting a relationship. Sigh, maybe some day it will be accepted by everyone. Sometimes, like a man, a girl just wants to get laid. *shrug*

I am not referring to the college girl when I say that btw, it’s just a general remark.

My college roommate was a super alpha player, always had a different girl every Saturday night. One thing he was very meticulous though was about safe sex. He always kept condoms handy in the room, in his wallet, in his pocket.

The condoms protected his p*nis but NOT his groin. One day, he had a genital herpes outbreak with sores all over his groin. The doctor told him that herpes is spread through skin to skin contact and a condom was useless against it. Safe sex is a myth but good luck.

You might have it but you don't know it. The deep dark secret doctors don't tell you is that when you get tested for STDs, they never test you for HPV, HSV1 and 2( herpes) unless you request for it. Which basically means that they don't test for incurable STDs. They probably get a commission from the makers of Valtrex .

When you are young, your immune system is strong, so much so that you may be able to suppress the symptoms. However, you may have an outbreak when your body is under stress much later in life when your immune system weakens.

Next time when you go in for testing, REQUEST that they include HPV, HSV 1 and 2.

So they don't test for AIDS either? Because AFAIK I still get emails saying "donate to the AIDS Cure Research fund!"

They actually do because most people request HIV and "STD" testing together. By default, HSV 1 and 2 are not included in the standard list of tests.

thats an excellent topic for discussion. i think that firstly, things like this have always been going on (OK, maybe not to a very great extent, but i'm sure none of this is all new), but now, given the prevalence of the internet, it all comes to light and becomes public much faster. and then there's also the feedback loop effect, wherein people see others acting in this way and think its OK or actually rewarding for them to behave in a similar fashion, and so on...
