I have been legally able to drink for 2 years already, but I don't drink for, lack of a better word, fun, but rather only during occasions such as parties and weddings. The strongest I've had was a few cups of sake during my friend's 20th birthday in Japan (20/hatachi is the legal drinking age in Japan, so she decided to celebrate it by drinking her first sake with her family and mine). Other than that, I don't get the compulsion to drink whenever I feel like it...because I rarely feel like it in the first place. It's how I was brought up.

Edit; Also, I don't plan on consuming alcohol. ever.
Eh, you'd be surprised. I had the same attitude at one point. Whenever my friends would go drinking or party it up I would always be sober. Eventually, it just got kind of got boring to be the lone one out. Ended up having my first consumption of alcohol when I was 18. There's really nothing bad about alcohol, as long as you're smart about it.

Whiskey and rum are my go to bevs, especially Jack Daniel's Tennessee Honey Whiskey. That stuff's amazing. Not too much of a fan of vodka anymore after I got completely poop-faced at a party one time. Considering I hadn't been drinking for that long I wanted to test my limit, so I (stupidly) took around 8/9 shots in the course of an hour and a half.....yeah, don't do that...

That's pretty much me too. Since I was brought up with Catholic morals, I've been taught to not drink until I was legally able to and to only drink in moderation. My dad only drinks at certain occasions when it's offered and I feel like I'm following his footsteps. I don't mind not drinking, though. I don't like the taste or smell of beer honestly.

I remember there was a time where I was all "straight edge", and Todd myself I'd never smoke (again), intake weed, it drink alcohol. Overtime, though, those ideals faded. I'm not entirely sure why, to be honest. Guess it was because I didn't really have a reason not to, if that makes any sense. That being said, I've only ever taken a drag once, drank a few times, and still never have and will smoke pot. Point is, things change.

I was the same way. Swore up and down as a kid I'd never drink because it was THE DEVIL, then it changed to I'd never get drunk, and then I got drunk on my 21st. Hahawhoops. Felt that strongly about drugs, too, but I've tried weed once. But that's the only drug I'd ever do.

My limit is cigarettes. It's amazing that I worked around so many smokers for 4 years and never picked it up. But my thing is, I know if I start, I'll never be able to stop. Also, smoking is expensive! At least with drinking, I can go without whenever I want/can't afford to drink.

By the way, my ad right now is for alcohol rehab. I think you're talking about it too much. :p

I can't see myself getting drunk, but I won't deny that it could happen at least once. I'm pretty much avoiding cigarettes though. I don't like how they smell and they seem to be much more addictive and unhealthy than alcohol.

Ditto about the cigarettes. Plus it's a really expensive addiction. Practically $10 a pack? No thanks, I'd rather spend that money buying new music.

or ice cream. My friends smoke. I don't really say much, but the smell is daunting at times when I'm in the car with them or near them. I drink only at home, but I pace myself so I don't get drunk.

Getting drunk? I'll make absolutely sure I won't go past my limit. My word of honour. I've heard other people's unpleasant experiences and I sure as heck won't ever want to go through that. .-.

As for cigarettes...
No. Just no.

Wasting $10 on music is a much better habit. You can get more satisfaction with music than with smoking.
Weren't we talking about alcohol stuffs yesterday already?
And even at about the same time of day as well?

It's really not that great. Being buzzed has it's perks, but even that it's just eh. When I was drunk I just remember not wanting to get up from the bathroom floor (yeah, I was puking) and that was just a horrible night. But I mean, I didn't know my limits and now I know (conscious: or just don't be such a dumb butt next time and drink 9 shots in an hour and a half...)

Never smoked my whole life, and never will. \o/ It's a dirty addiction and my mom was in it before. I'm proud of her for quitting years ago.

I was like trying to smoke once (when a friend had cigarettes etc.)

...

I threw up horrendously
Yeah, appearently a lot of people vomit after having the first cigarette. I don't smoke, but i do drink, not a lot and not to "defy the system" or to feel "cool". My dad sometimes gives me some beer or Breezer, but that's about it. I did drank 1 Vodka-redbull and one Jin and tonic when i was on vacation in Greece and my dad told me it was good. I also drank a coctail but really the last time i had any sort of alcohol was about...4 months ago. That is all of my drinking history and i must have drank more than some people who commented here...and i'm 15.

Blah, I can say I will never get drunk as much as I want but I probably will at some point... Cigarettes are another story: I've been around it all my life growing up, and it's positively nasty to me. The thought of putting that in my mouth sounds absolutely disgusting and I have absolutely no reason to do it, so I'm not going to. My mom simply quit as soon as it got expensive, but my dad has been struggling to quit pretty much all his life. There was even a point where he had gone a year without it, but then he and my mom divorced and he moved out on his own, and he picked it up again. u.u Yucky. I hate the smell and I hate everything about it.

Never smoked the marijuanas, and I don't really want to, because it's still smoking... I love my lungs too much! Other methods of taking it, though, I might be open to. I don't know, weed doesn't seem so bad. It's all over my town and the only real issue with it is that kids are getting in trouble for it haha.

How about le hookah? Anyone done that before? I've never done weed but I have done hookah with friends before. Get a game of Cards Against With Humanity going while doing that and you're in for a swell night.

Weed is another thing I'd never touch. I know it's healthier than cigarettes and is used for medical purposes, but it's just not my thing. I've always wanted to try Cards Against Humanity too. Combinations like this make it seem like a blast of a game

Spoiler:


Also semi-related note: I see those vapor pens all over my campus. It seems like a lot people have them at my college. It looks like a good way to smoke without spreading nicotine in the air and also help you quit smoking if you want to.

I've done hookah a few times. Nothing wrong with it... it was pretty fun.

My father smokes pot pretty much on a daily basis, so I used to not go too often without smelling it. Basically smelled like skunk, which wasn't too unpleasant. Cigarette smoke, on the other hand, makes me nauseous.

I remember there was a time where I was all "straight edge", and Todd myself I'd never smoke (again), intake weed, it drink alcohol.

Smoking is outright banned in my campus. Good decision in my book.
Same here with my college, and I agree. But many people disregard that anyways and I see lots of cigarette butts around the campus all the time, so it's not really a heavily-enforced rule.
