that's an awfully absurd and pessimistic point of view, especially on a drug forum in which i'd expect the greater population to live and breathe in the moment and not get their panties tangled in knots over substances.

that's pretty awesome kanglow.  i know i've had some similarly awesome things happen to me, but i'm gonna have to think on it for a while.  i just got that feeling though.  i'm sure at some point i've received an unwarranted random act of kindness.

it just so happens that alcohol and cigarettes kill more people than pretty much anything else in the world, so i have a right to hate on it

sure, in the long-term.  not everyone cares whether they die of lung cancer when they're like sixty or seventy.

and besides, we're all adults.  we're all well informed about the dangers of those substances.  adults who have weighed the costs and benefits make their decision to act according to their risk aversion and wont of living in the moment.

you're just coming across as a pisser of parades over a genuinely kind-hearted gesture.

There was this movie about doing good to a person and in return asking only to do good for 3 people in need and passing the message along.

Yeah, but then the random acts of violence I perform tend to restore balance to the Force.

Most people on a "drug" forum such as this often have a better understanding of what they're putting into their body. Alcohol and tobacco are poison, and barely anybody realizes what they're doing to their own bodies when they ingest this stuff. Just because this is a drug forum doesn't mean that we all like ingesting as many chemicals as we can. I don't think very many people here do heroin or meth or crack, I believe we're a pretty responsible bunch. Most alcoholics die in their early 30's or 40's - Not that I care what you do with your body, it's up to you, but don't say that most people are well informed of the risks, when they are clearly not. After people try mushrooms, they often quit drinking alcohol and tobacco, or at least from my experiences.

They destroyed mine b/c nobody ever passed it on or returned the favor. I used to go out of my way to help people, but now I'm a dick and it works out much better for me.
