Definately not.
Somethings are better not said.

Like about how me + ym = mint.

EDIT: Also, what are you talking about?

Well
I'm saying that sometimes...we make discoveries, about ourselves and about others and about life in general...and sometimes those discoveries are good. They save us from another beating...they help. But sometimes those discoveries are bad. We realise something about ourselves / life that makes us sad. Shows our limitations.

So knowledge / self-awareness isn't always good. Or is it ?

So "is ignorance better than reality" is the simplified version.

But I did tell you I was munted...

Ahh, I see
A few months ago, I thought back to when I was about 12/13 and starting to develop a personality, and I really liked my older sisters boyfriend. Thinking back, would the 12 year old me like me now?

I'm not sure he would, after a few decisions I've made.

So to answer your questions in a roundabout way, discovering personal flaws is a great thing, as you can (hopefully) correct them before you suffer from them.

Also, lay off the weed :)

I'm 42.
I've done weed for 24 years.

I haven't done badly.

Better than those I've seen with alcohol tendencies.

Remember, right now, as I type, I'm completely fucked. But still able to type.

Don't knock da weed. It's more natural than anything else that one ingests (alcohol, tobacco, caffeine et al).

I'm 22
I smoked weed from 16-21, 3 of the those 4 years I smoked very heavily, as in at least once or twice a day (not one or two joints, i mean one or two sesh's per day) and it really fucked with my head. Spent a couple of years waking up, having a few bongs before college, going to college, getting stoned at college, going home, going round a mates and getting stoned again, going home and having a few bongs before bed.

At least a year of that was spent depressed. Not wah wah wah I'm sad depressed, as in days spent in bed smoking myself stupid not wanting to do anything even things I usually enjoy (wanking, playing guitar, wanking and wanking) and I think that was maybe what did it.

I don't mean to teach grandma to suck eggs, and I'm glad you still enjoy smoking, but even a few off a J gets me really paranoid, and I think I make up for that by drinking too much.

One man's meat
is another man's poison. It doesn't work for everyone. Of course I get the paranoias, just like everyone. But I fight it, mostly with logic. "I have smoked x hundred times, and out of those times, how many times has it been trouble ?". As a percentage, it's very very small. So I let myself enjoy it. Sorry you're not able to - and that's not patronising.

I love staying in control. I love it. That's why cannabis is the drug of my choice.

Good on you mate,
I used to think I'll always smoke weed, but I started having really strange, bad thoughts.

You're right, probably just not for me.
I got really bad at one point and thought I was crazy. Sounds stupid looking back on it, and I have no idea why I thought I was crazy but a good friend put it into perspective. "If you're mental, you won't know that you're mental."

Works for me.

Weed doesn't really effect me well.
I get all the minus points with non of the plus ones. I try it every couple of years just to reconfirm that I don't like it.

I love most opiets though.

Never tried opiates
I think it was 'shrooms that did it for me in the end.

Had one really bad trip that ended with me and my best mate lying the a room, after turning off the tv, music and light, and I'd convinced myself that I knew they were poisonous and I'd killed myself. Not sure how that came to be, but it seems with 'shrooms that you have one bad thought and it spirals.

Had 5 or 6 absolutely mint trips before that thought.

Yeah, like
being drunk makes you clever...

I'll take the Pepsi Challenge any day.

No, it doesnt make you clever either.

Not having a go at you - I smoked weed from my late teens until my late 30s.
