If Bob Beckel actually REMEMBERED smoking pot, as he said he did, then he should remember that 1 only gets so high; after that, 1 just coasts for an hour or 2, with an afterglow of warm happiness for a few more hours maybe, to be finally ended with sleep filled with dreams that leave 1 feeling good the next morning, IF 1 gets enough sleep before rising. Smoking more will only extend that slightly less than initial high by the length of time that 1 waits to repeat the smoking. Now, smoking again the next night will certainly not be as intense as the 1st night. That hasN'T changed EITHER.

Please REMIND Bob, that it is just immoral & UNconstitutional to, year after year, lock up generations of mostly young men, (many of whom made the best grades in school), saddling them w/computerized CRIMINAL records that will prevent them from working at most jobs for the rest of their LIVES.

It is STUPID because this nixon&RAYgunESCALATED DrugWar has ALREADY almost BANKRUPTED MOST OF OUR STATES & NATION.

Remember when our states actually SUPPORTED college educations?

Now the $ are spent on CREATING PRISONERS & BUILDING PRISONS to HOLD THEM. The CONS have created a PRISON CULTURE that is truly frightening, just watch MSNBC on the weekends to understand WHAT A TRUE WASTE this DRUG WAR IS.

WE MUST SOON END IT to return to a time when it felt good to be FREE, AND so that we can, ONCE AGAIN, SUPPORT our EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM, from TRADE SCHOOLS to COLLEGES & UNIVERSITIES, & K-12.

It is PAST TIME TO LEGALIZE, TAX & REGULATE MARIJUANA.

PLEASE, lend YOUR words to this RATIONAL & positive cause.

1. Why, may I ask, do you present actual content is the style of gibberish spam?

Is it that difficult to hit the space bar?

[supraTruth]

3. CANmakeMOREcontentFITintoTWEETorSUBJECTline.

It ain't "GIBBERISH" if U have a brain.

[cherokeeprogressive]

5. Psssst... Twitter's over there -------->

Here you're just typing stupid shit that most will not read.

Good luck with that.

I have a brain, and what you've typed is fucking gibberish.

[RZM]

7. Well two possible scenarios then. Either I'm the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz

Or this is gibberish.

Just take the first set of letters and numbers:

'WhenBeckelSAIDon4CONS'

Ok, first word is 'when,' and second is 'Beckel,' as in 'Bob Beckel.' Third word is 'is.' So so far we've got:

'When Beckel is'

So far so good. But then I lose you at:

'AIDon'

Does this mean Beckel is an 'AI Don,' like as in artificially intelligent crime boss. Sort of the android version of Vito Corleone?

Or do you mean 'a Idon?' If I had to guess what an 'idon' was, I'd say some type of Japanese noodle.

I do get that '4 cons' means he's being whatever for conservatives. So my guess is you're saying he's either an android crime boss or a Japanese noodle in service of Conservatives.

11. Not really.

Take my word for it, I get paid a lot of money P/T to write copy for social media content for NPOs and political campaigns. You're doing little more than annoying your audience. If you were tweeting your DU posts...you'd do better to find and remove extraneous words rather than spaces. If your content is so annoying that it makes reading the rest of the site harder, (and in this case it does because it's too wide for the table and the absence of spaces is preventing it from line-breaking) all you're going to do is motivate people to hide your threads and eventually your posts. Likewise, if your formatting makes it impossible to read your post (and in this case it does) then people are not going to read what you wrote.

If there is a prime rule of social media, it's "don't format your content in annoying ways."

16. "If there is a prime rule of social media, it's "don't format your content in annoying ways.""

The only reason I opened the thread in the first place is b/c it's screwing up the formatting of the rest of GD. So it got my attention. But I've still yet to finish reading the subject line, because I have a hard time trusting it's worth the effort.

[LACarMan]

33. Odd

I decided to add "spaces" to your subject line and it appears that it would still meet the twitter limit.

10. before I hide your thread

I wanted to let you know that the failure to have a line break in the words in your title is causing many people to hide your thread.

if you want people to read you - you should put a space between some of those letters.

if you don't care if people read you - keep it as is.

if you post in this way more than once here - people will put you on ignore so that you don't show up with these sorts of title lines.

13. I weep for the future of communication. nt

[muriel_volestrangler]

19. No, this is actually a return to the style of a thousand years ago

They didn't leave spaces between written words either:

20. Having studied Classical Greek and Latin, SC annoyed me for years.

When the first thing you have to do with a document for translation is transcribe it so you can input word-breaks & punctuation, it be comes the bane of your existence quickly. 25 minutes into "translating" and there isn't a single translated word on the page yet.

14. OK, if you say so

whatever it is you were trying to say.

15. I believe this is a powerful argument against marijuana legalization.

If only to prevent future similar tragedies of communication.

23. Practicing a ransom note?

You will reach more people here if you just type a normal headline. There are a lot of over 40 somethings here who cannot & will not try to translate your subject line.

[Iggo]

28. Yep.

I immediately trashed this thread.

25. Immoral I can at least understand and sympathize with. But...'unconstitutional'?

29. Beckel, 4 Cons & 1 moderate democrat on FOX: Pot too strong these days

See, it's easy if you have a brain and actually want people to respond positively to your post.

[RZM]

34. Ah I get it now

'Four cons and one moderate Democrat' is slang for 'The Five,' which is the 5pm weekday show on Fox News.

I guess my theory about robot Vito Corleone was off.
