I prefer it to everything. Most people I know drink 24-7 (not so surprising in college). Yet, I'm Not inclined to drink, especially excessively. Ive taken a fair amount of drugs, but I find the best thing to be Chronic. I am surprisingly able when I smoke and do everything with that slightly euphoric and nostalgic look in my eyes. Really though, I do not feel it affects me negatively. I'm not selling my **** for drugs, I'm not on the street giving black dudes head for some meth. I'm chilling with someone smoking and playing a game, watching a movie, going to a concert, eating with my family, going to the store, going to six flags, Reading Lord of the Rings, Reading Dune and Kevin j. Anderson's dune, or reading dark tower. I find it enhances my day to day life.
As to its "coolness", I do not think it makes me cool. I simply see it as my "beer", or "gambling", or whatever vice you like to say. Some people do there pills. Though Ive dabbled in them in my youth, I find its not my scene. Most of the time I end up taking too much and puking anyway. The norcos i mentioned earlier were a pretty high dose (in the 800's i think). I was young and dumb, and learned my lesson. If not the first time, than sometime later. Adderall is pretty good if you want to talk non stop for a day, but I do not condone it. Especially seeing as its similar to coke, so I'm told, and **** coke. M.J. is my woman, through thick and thin. I too often times see people expressing their feelings for buddha with the most passion and love Ive ever seen of anyone. Their frequent refrain? I love it.
I'm sure most (if not all of you) drink, and I ask you how is it different? I don't see to many "high driving" accidents. I don't see stoners puking Thieu guts out after a night of smoking, with a hangover to throw the gods in dismay. No, I see people, eating and being generally lazy. Something Americans do without the aid of ganja.
