Z-JuiceOur society is pretty misguided these days. It's the same people that preach open-mindedness and tolerance who bash and ridicule others who don't agree with them or even offer a different opinion.
Not trying to call out anyone in this thread, but it's just a weird, hypocritical cultural norm that's becoming more common.
I get not wanting to do drugs, but somebody smoking a bit of weed is pretty casual. I get not wanting to have people snorting lines off the kitchen counter, being blackout drunk 24/7, or smoking blunts everywhere in the apartment, but somebody who smoked through out the day doesn't mean they're a degenerate. They aren't going to smoke a bowl and be knocking shit over and puking everywhere. It doesn't really impact anything at all. It's like doing "drugs" to be normal. It's like freaking out about coffee or somebody eating spaghetti.
Also I've had plenty of crazy fucking roommates that didn't or barely do drugs.
I don't think there's any reason to be against it to that extent other than weird cultural norms or if you used to party but got sober and don't want to be around any drugs. Not wanting people to smoke in the house is totally cool. If you don't have any fear from landlords not being ok with smoking in their room, even with a spoof is kind of meh, but whatever. But if somebody went on the porch and smoked a bowl quick and then went to work or back to making dinner, I don't really get it.
Hell even being again cigs makes sense. They might smoke outside but if they're a real smoker that shit gets on everything.
I don't feel entitled to do whatever I want, or need to smoke everywhere. Hell I just started smoking again for the first time in 9 years. I just think it's a little odd to be against living with somebody that smokes some weed outside. Maybe not as a preference, but as a demand as far as renting. There are a lot of things Id like from roommates but I'll settle for somebody who washes their dishes, cleans up after themselves, and doesn't blast shitty music. If they want to eat food that smells like ass and have poor taste in movies, I'll just deal with that.
