Does that mean you're leaving the forum (again) only to come back for some more in a few weeks?

The guy's a self-confessed dope fiend, Did you really expect him to be rational?

If you want to take the stuff that's entirely your lookout, I don't for a second think it makes you a morally inferior person per se, nor do I think any competent adult should run the risk of criminal prosecution for doing so. What I certainly won't accept though is being told it has no effect at all on your personality as a whole, or on any aspects of your intellectual judgement, whether while actually under the influence or in-between periods of being so.

Oh, and for what it's worth, it's impossible to be a Satanist without also believing in the existence of God. Two sides of the same coin.

You don't think that's somewhat petty and childish? Calling me a drug fiend because I'm prepared to man up and admit that Cannabis has passed my lips? What did I do to you to provoke such a personal attack? I have no idea who you are, let alone am I logging your posts in order to use them against you.

You didn't even link to the post where I was asked if I'd used cannabis and said yes, come on, get with it. Prescription drugs?

I got you now, you're the so called security worker who has no idea on the use of the Darknet, scary playground for perverts and kiddie abusers, keep away!! Great to know your stance on drugs, no doubt your'e a religious fundemantalist with no real world experience. Now **** off before I start stalking you and not only ruin you on here but halt your career.

It's harsh, I wasn't in the best of moods at the time, attacking my character by labelling me a dope fiend wasn't the best move. Call me a ****, all good, I am sometimes, but I'm far from a dope fiend and the suggestion that I should be ignored because I am got my goat and face to face could have led to a bent nose.

Goodness me, someone's a bit touchy today. I'm not even going to bother responding directly to that person, but if an impartial observer wanted evidence that weed has a rather dramatic effect on one's propensity to be short-tempered, for example, they wouldn't need to look very far in this thread.

I have owned very few watches. As a child, my aspirational wristwear was a Swatch. I had the “Little Jelly”, with a clear face through which you could see the tiny cogs beneath its multicoloured hands.So,Apple's watch is a must-have. But is it a must-keep?

My Apple watch looks like my old black Swatch that I gave to a girl, who dumped me the next week a long, long time ago.

Well it might be allright in the water after all, if you want to take the risk



Of course you'll get no data from it unless you take your iphone as well...

Why will you get no data from it? It has great data with or without the phone.

I'm still not swimming with mine on but it does make claims you can't wear it in the rain look a bit silly.

And you're wrong again, heart rate and movement are recorded which count to your activity goals. What you mean is there's no specific stroke count, which I doubt you'll see from an Apple app as it would encourage people to swim with the watch, which isn't a great idea. Other apps may track Swimming as an activity.

Hope you enjoy it, when's it delivered? Of course if you doubled the ram and added a heart rate monitor it would be more expensive, but some people are easily fooled by marketing. It's massive too.

Fair enough , although doubling the price for double ram is usually an apple preserve

Unexpected bonus, easily 25% more battery left in my iPhone every night, seems obvious as I'm not using it as much but still unexpected. Sport functions are still my favourite.
