Alcohol V weed
Cheeba, I agree with you and you're absolutely right on all your points on why weed is better. Also, think about this: I recently saw something on the History Channel about weed and they said it was made illegal not cause it was bad for you, because of immigration. Supposedly Mexicans were coming in and taking american jobs and I guess maybe making more than the average american at the time, so the goverment trumped up some phony myths and stereotypes about mexicans to get them and their weed out of the country. I guarantee you if weed were made legal in this country, it would outsell alcohol 10 times out of 10. Hell, my own grandmother said if she had to choose, she'd rather see someone smoke a joint than drink a beer. So light up!

It's funny how your perspective changes...since this time, I've found the initiative that just wasn't there to do something real with my life...was it that I smoked weed that kept me from doing this? I'll never know.
I mean, that would be the assumption, yeah, but...I still made the conscious decision to start my studies and do something I'd always thought about, also the conscious decision to cut right the hell down on the weed, and reach the stage where I've all but stopped now. However, I WAS able to make this decision while still smoking relatively regularly. But then again, I'd probably have made this decision so much quicker without it. My "weed vs alcohol" opinions still stand in regards on my thoughts that regular alcohol useage seems more harmful... HOWEVER, from my current viewpoint, in hindsight, thinking about where my life is now, compared to where it was then...I actually have people seeking me out for work now, have more expendable cash, I'm thinking much further ahead, working, learning...I'm busier and I guess therefore not finding myself at the same loose end I used to when I was smoking regularly...what came first, the smoking or the loose ends? Well, maybe if I hadn't smoked so much I'd remember. So yeah, I think weed as a recreational thing here and there, AND alcohol for that matter is all good, well not ALL good, but health risks aside - moderation is still the key. I think it's when these things become or are habitual, it's time to examine the situation, maybe take a few weeks off and see if your head clears enough to formulate a completely unclouded and unbiased opinion. I know now, that this is what I did, and needed to do to make a real move into well, reality. I'll still have a tequila night here and there, I'll get rowdy and blaze up...and yknow what? it's not only healthier, but much more fun when you're not doing it every other day. One important thing... Boredom is a pitiful excuse. I know this, becuase that's the same one I used to fall back on to try and justify what I was doing, to myself. Again, if you drink, smoke, or do anything that alters your mental state habitually or on a regular basis...step off for a few weeks, and clear your head. PS - Whoever with their fake name decided to drag up this thread, it's pretty obvious. However, thankyou. It gave me a chance to ponder, and reflect. - B

How about neither. I refuse to throw my life out the window. However, (when i'm at age), I might be a social drinker, but only occasionally.

That's coming from the viewpoint of a smoker.

Just as your views are from a non-smoker...so?
Lets not get into "I'm right and you're wrong" mode, we've managed to keep the thread away from that so far. I like ideas on both sides...both have validities. So, if you wanna discuss, discuss. No point being judgemental or anything...

Well, i'm going to stick to my side that all illegal drugs are bad, but I understand what you're saying completely.
All except the kinds that doctors can give such as morphine.

I've never been into pot really. The smell makes me sick and i always went to sleep instead of having any fun. I would go for a drink any day,in about 5 months i'll have one again!! I don't say anything bad about people who choose to smoke pot, it's not for me to say shit. I used to love pain killers and alot of people disagree with that. I say have fun while you can, life is waaaayyy to short to judge!!:D
