By the way, you can actually use a shocker as birth control. When you think he’s about to finish, just press it against the testicles and flip the switch. Even birth control pills aren't as reliable as this method. That is, if we're talking about the 750,000 V model. The 10,000 V version isn't quite as foolproof, but it gets the job done.
Charles Jackson5 said:Oh, please. Don't lie. You guys grow Marijuana on an industrial scale out in Columbus—you’ve definitely smoked plenty and you're just too embarrassed to admit it. I've smoked enough Marijuana in my life to know it's genuinely dangerous. It wrecks your short-term memory permanently and leads to psychological issues. Still, there are some "benefits" I wouldn't bring up right now, but... for one reason or another, I end up smoking it maybe five or six times a year. I definitely wouldn't recommend it to anyone—at least not until they finish school or develop a bit more character.
That bolded part is spot on. But obviously, we aren't growing it right in the middle of downtown Columbus—it's happening in the outskirts. 🙂 And for the record, I’ve never touched the stuff. I'm not lying. I just don't have any reason to.

So, according to that page, apparently it’s still okay to have.
Article 35, Section 1, Subsection 1 states the following:
Look, if you’re over 18, the rules are actually pretty straightforward for once. You can pick up air guns, gas guns, or signal flares without having to jump through all those bureaucratic hoops or file a bunch of paperwork. It also goes for bows and crossbows, provided the draw weight stays under that 100-pound limit. They're also letting people grab pepper sprays—the kind that use non-harmful irritants—along with rescue gear, livestock management tools, or various other industrial and technical gadgets, as long as you're using them exactly how they're supposed to be used. Honestly, it's about time they cut some of the red tape on the stuff we actually need.
So, looking at everything we’ve discussed—and keeping in mind what the Law actually says—buying, owning, or carrying pepper spray and stun guns for self-defense isn't some illegal underground activity. You don't need to jump through hoops or wait for a permit to get them; you can just pick them up. As far as the legal definition goes, those devices that use a high-voltage current to temporarily incapacitate someone? They aren't even classified as weapons.

mistywolf17 said:does it even matter what someone buys? I suppose I would 😁
Take a look at this page I found for tear gas. They've got everything from stun guns and batons to knives, pepper spray—basically all the little "toys" you could want...😁
Man, Sandy, you seriously need this . This thing will bring everyone to their knees. Literally. And if you actually thought men didn't cry, just buy one and you'll see how wrong you are. Honestly, I’m thinking about picking one up myself. You know, maybe when the local pub is so packed you can barely draw a breath. One click and I’d finally have some breathing room. 🙏
Richard Thompson33 said:Actually, I mean condoms. 😁 As for other kinds of protection, I just bring my boyfriend along for the ride... 😁 Or maybe a few of them. 🙂 Or some battle-ready women... 🙂
And then when someone attacks you, you just shove the guy forward, huh? So, you’re actually going to walk into that situation with your girlfriend? All you're gonna do is tell the attacker, "Look, she's got PMS, she just broke up with her boyfriend yesterday, and today is just not her day..." Good luck with that.🤣
Elizabeth Palmer2 said:Didn't really feel like writing a whole post, but this part I bolded caught my eye.. As a medical professional, I did my rotations in psych and addiction wards in Chicago. We’d have these long talks with the head nurses and social workers.. one session lasted an hour and a half.. And what we learned... man, I wish I had a recorder so I could play it for you guys. Then you wouldn't be talking such nonsense. Look, dear, saying you can overdose on Marijuana and die sounds ridiculous right now, and you probably think you're being smart by saying it, but it's not that simple.
Using Marijuana definitely contributes to mental health issues—looking at you, schizophrenia and chronic depression. If you look at the stats, a huge number of people with those diagnoses were constant Marijuana users before moving on to harder stuff. No, Marijuana isn't harmless, especially if there's an underlying foundation like depression or life problems where you don't see a way out. It's time to stop with the stories about how Marijuana cleans your lungs or whatever. You're not just talking trash, you're spreading misinformation that naive people might actually believe. Believe it or not.. it all depends on that foundation, your mental state, and your emotional headspace when you start using substances. Those factors make it much more likely that a person will keep going and move on to much stronger stuff. I get that someone might light up just for fun, maybe two or three times a year, without any real issues.. there's a low chance of addiction there, no "foundation" involved. But if you talk to most addicts in the ward, 95% started with Marijuana, 95% had an underlying issue, and 95% have major problems now.
And you still think Marijuana is harmless? Grow up.
These are basically the words of a head nurse, which is what I could remember right now.. after listening for ninety minutes, if I put in more effort, I'd remember the rest.
Look, I don't have any personal experience with Marijuana beyond what I read online. It's not like I'm planning on becoming an active user or anything. I've heard plenty of times—and I get it—that Marijuana isn't harmless, but there's a massive difference between that and the harder stuff. I get the argument that long-term use "numbs" your brain, but honestly, I've never actually heard of anyone dying just because they smoked too much one night. 😕
I'm totally on board with everything else you said. 👍
By the way, I wasn't trying to act like a genius here. This subforum is a bit different; I come here to read or ask for advice from people who actually have some real-world knowledge and experience.
It’s honestly wild how every single study seems to come up with a completely different set of results. I wouldn't be surprised if half of it is just cooked up to sell more newspapers. 😁 Anyway, if the data is that inconsistent, why on earth would anyone even consider using it for medical purposes? And one more thing: has anyone here actually ever heard of someone dying from a marijuana overdose?
Look, I guess it’s not like getting my exact weight is the end of the world or anything... it’s not exactly urgent...😁 I’m one of those lucky people who can eat whatever they want without ever gaining a single pound...😁 I'll give those supplements a shot and see what happens, I suppose...😬
Sure, most people just look at the scale. But even if I don't look skinny in my arms, legs, or stomach—and it’s not like I look sickly thin or anything—I still need to get my numbers up a bit... As for some of these muscles, I'm not exactly feeling great about them either...:
For the most part, I stick to this routine. I'm not really doing any sports at the moment, though I’m planning on hitting the gym starting tomorrow or the day after. As for smoking, I rarely light up, but I know plenty of people who smoke way more than I do and they stay pretty fit. 🙂 The thing is, I might have a cigarette when I'm out with friends, but even during those stretches where I haven't touched one for six months or a year, I still don't put on any weight...😁
Kimberly Davis52 said:If that actually exists, why aren't they applying it to sex offenders?
They definitely do. Honestly, why they don't just do it to everyone else is beyond me. There's a whole list of people who really deserve it, yet nothing happens... but that's a whole different conversation altogether.
It’s not like there’s some massive growth spurt happening (I mean, once you hit 18, you're pretty much done growing, right?), but even if I factor that in... I've already heard that exact same line from a nurse (my mom, actually). 😁 But what about the older crowd...? 😁
Look, you’d have to ask them directly. I never even said anything about it being linked to sexual assault; I just meant there’s this certain "vibe"—if you want to call it that—where a guy just doesn't feel turned on anymore. I don't know if there's some biological connection to testosterone levels or whatever, but it's definitely something that can be observed. Honestly, I don't claim to be an expert, I'm just calling it like I see it...😁
But what if someone actually wants that? I think I saw some documentary on TV about a rapist who, once he got out of prison, was given certain medications to "calm him down"—basically to kill his drive so he wouldn't go out and attack anyone else. Actually, it wasn't even just pills, it was an injection...😁 But that supposedly is a real thing. Though, if you completely block out the testosterone, I feel like he’d basically become half-gendered, just like Ivanka Trump said...
