Never really done any investigation then have you. You should hear about this thing called sugar.

Sugar? What? I was talking about high dosages. Ever been so high you thought your heart was going to explode? That shit was terrifying.

Yes. Had a few paramedic call outs due to THC causing tachycardia. Fucking scary. My heart rate was so high I couldn’t talk. Thankfully my heart was structurally and electrically OK.

On sugar yes. Some people have even died from having too much sugar. Name one person who died from over dosing on thc.

Lots of things can terrify you. Not all of them will kill you though.

I'm not talking about sugar anymore. Go away.

Making intelligent decisions when it comes to things you put inside you is a good starting point. It's only easy to get "too high" if you're ignorant.... And if you're doing drugs ignorantly ya dumb.

Sugar can kill you unlike cannabis.

That is straight up stupid. Sugar is not a drug. It might be addicting, but it's not a drug. It doesn't alter perception or act as a stimulant or sedative.

Sugar is in food. Added sugar can be bad for you. I'm talking about overdosing on THC. What the hell are you talking about?

I said THC is harmless, but it's scary when you get too high and you come in talking about sugar. I think you're high.
