You know what happens if you smoke regular marihuana? Basically nothing. Half the joint is first of all filled or stretched with tobacco. The whole thing has to keep slowly building somehow. The end result is thus a smoky lung/mouth and a light headache if you commit to deeply inhaling that shit. My legs also felt a bit asleep once. What an effect. Inhaling the smoke is lastly bad news bears if you mess up even slightly... and will.

I am fully convinced that smoking a single joint leads to nothing, as the same people who claimed that also managed to get drunk of beer. An altered strain of cannabis or a pure root from the jungle (HBO Vice had a good episode on that) may be different of course but who has access to that? Get VR glasses if you want to mess with your brain.

I also read EU/US comics and am a librarian.

all my friends drink way too much or are stoned all the time
the ones that don't, are trapped in different prisons where they won't eat carbs and are exercising twice a day
their lives tho

I drink and I can hold my alcohol pretty well..
But I only drink to socialize.. When my friends invite me to drink I come (but only maybe once a month)
Honestly I don't like the taste of alcohol
But I'm the strongest drinker among my peers (cause I don't want to lose... 😤😤😤)

I swore off drinking the day I saw one of my friends get drunk and start laughing and crying at the same time like some goddamn lunatic. He was having some trouble with his girlfriend at the time.
It was seriously disturbing, I remember it every time someone offers me a drink or talks about drinking in general.

I'm 30 and never had a sip of alcohol in my life. Not because I'm religious or anything but the smell of it just really turns me off so I never cared to try it.

Actually, they've been finding out that pot can cause anxiety disorder, brain damage, decreases reaction time, causes one to lose their indepedence, and increases your sperm count at the risk of making you sterile. Also, the stuff out on the market today is much more potent than the stuff from years ago.

On rare occasions. I don't particularly like alcohol, but if it's free or to socialize, sure.

Only on the holidays and usually wine with the rare hard liquor. Don't like most beer as it tastes like crap.

Alcohol was never some kind of taboo or super restricted thing growing up in my family, so it wasn't some kind of forbidden thing that would make you feel like you were missing out or encourage someone to sneak a drink. If everyone in your family has a sip during a toast over the holidays then alcohol is no big deal and no reason to crave the forbidden. I also saw many of the bad effects on friends who succumbed to peer pressure or got a taste for it growing up. Plus I never needed it to have fun.

Once a week.
Well, more like sober for ~a month, then constantly drunk crying alone in my room for the week after every exam season. I have two 3-hour midterms tomorrow too. I hate university. 😐

Heh, I guess it averages out, huh?

There should be a answer for us sober alcoholics. I used to drink everyday up until 2 years ago

If you've gone cold turkey it sounds like the answer is "never"? So you can just proudly answer "never"?

Happy and surprised to see many dry people.

Should have an option for "Never because I am under-aged". As for myself, I do have a drink on occasion. Like when the sun goes down... But yeah, there are maybe couple days a month I don't have a drink. Can't remember the last time I was drunk though.

Far-off places with sweet sounding names.

I did vote that, but I never for a second forget that there'd be no going back from one drink. It's why I still call myself an alcoholic even though I've been sober for over 2 years.

Thankfully, I don't think about drinking everyday anymore. It's more like once a week/month. Never drinking and being a sober alcoholic are pretty different things is what I was trying to say
