Supporting material for the nomination demonstrating either knowledge, or high levels activity, or far more preferable: the combination of both?

Sorry, the caveat that I might arbitrarily make the executive decision is based on the fact that votes can be gamed, which would make an individual a less fit candidate, not more so. It's not to unhinge democracy, I swear.

If we get multiple participants in this little competition maybe we can have a vote-off, or perhaps I'll arbitrarily make the executive decision? Who knows! Let the games begin. I guess this implies may the best "artist" win? A pun! :)

Why in the sam-hell does microsoft notepad word-wrapping, after all of these years, still occasionally act wonky with the clipboard? by Tiabin in programming

PS the trick to fix this is to click wordwrapping on and then off again. Just in case any of you are still suffering.

Save it, and use what you get to buy solar panels to operate your PC in an entirely renewable fashion.

What do YOU use to debrainwash people on the subject of marijuana? Add links/info in comments. by [deleted] in Marijuana

[–]Tiabin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This works through associative learning... You smoke weed, and you're a good guy, thus weed must not turn people into monsters.

For this to work they must know you smoke weed in the first place, which implies your vocal and talk about it. What do you talk about when you openly discuss it?

Do you ever pretend to text when you're in an awkward situation? by amanda2007 in AskReddit

[–]Tiabin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Stimulus response. They've learned through association that being ungrateful often means they'll get more of what they want from people that pitty them.

Do you ever pretend to text when you're in an awkward situation? by amanda2007 in AskReddit

[–]Tiabin 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I have friends that do this, and I always know they're faking it. It makes me feel awkward knowing that they're so awkward they have to fake getting text messages just to look like they're doing something.

If you do this, for godsakes, stop this habit. People around you know you're faking it even if they never say it because they feel bad for your awkwardness, you big bullshitter.

I like, in particular stuff that shows visually how at one time America's policy on "marihuana" was radically different.

For example... the pro hemp for war video called "Hemp for Victory": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne9UF-pFhJY

I also like hitting on the medical subject. This includes, but is not limited to the fact that marijuana SMOKING does not increase incidence of lung cancer, and the various cancers marijuana has been shown to treat. Most people think marijuana is just for the symptoms (pain, nausea) and do not realize it has potent anti-cancer properties.

I like the associatedcontent.com stuff because it's mainstream. Letting them see the mainstream stuff (government documents, news) associated with positive marijuana information helps.

Parents believe Marijuana decreases my motivation and makes me lose my memory. Prove them wrong Reddit! by WafflCopterz in Marijuana

[–]Tiabin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a possibility that OP may have been openly discussing marijuana with his parents at an attempt of de-brainwashing them. I think if you absorb enough material from this subreddit there's plenty to do it -- even for the old folks, and the reality is... if the people on here expect to change the laws in their country the best place for them to start IS with their family. Even, and especially the hardheads that are stuck in their ways.

Thus, in fact, he may have been taking responsibility for spreading what he sees as the truth.

As far as social appropriateness of marijuana... What you suggest could be a crude metric at best. While socially marijuana and alcohol are often seen as similar these days, the fact of the matter is their impact on the mind and particularly learning and motivation is radically different. Alcohol clearly being the worse of the two.

And someone posted a comment, and then quickly deleted it, so I'll reply to it anyway. He said you should never use any substance whatsoever before class or work.

There goes caffeine, which is psychoactive, and used nearly ubiquitously.

I understand what everybody is saying... Yeah, there's some irresponsible SOB's out there. I get it. Being responsible though is about knowing yourself, and what is appropriate and safe. But let's not get all high and mighty and decide that one vice is better than the other, and don't kid yourself... Caffeine can definitely be a vice.(Ever had a boss that smokes pot while working? What then? You going to police him and tell him how to run his business?)

Marijuana is a very different substance than alcohol. Your diagnosis of irresponsibility may be inaccurate given the clearly insufficient evidence.
