I'm perfect so I rock lol!

I don't get it.

Why do people think that they're SO MUCH BETTER than everyone else because of the fact that they've never had a drink, or smoke pot, etc etc? For some odd reason, everytime a beer thread or a pot thread or a "omg im dunk rofl" thread pops up, theres about fifteen posts with "I've never had a drink ^__^" and yeah,t hey don't come out and say it, but you know. You can tell. There's that hint of "You're an idiot, you drunkard! I've never had a drink so I'm better than you!" in that stupid little smilie.

My brother has this same mentality. When I asked him why, his only retort was "It's stupid!" Well how the hell do you know if you've never tried it? Yes, you do stupid things, but hey, that's fine. As long as you're responisble beforehand, have yourself a driver, etc, things'll be fine.

Pleanty of people drink. Almost just as many people smoke pot. There's nothing wrong with it, as long as it doesn't become habit forming etc. In many ways marijuana is better than alcohol, but that's my opinion.

The point is, you're not better than anyone. Nobody is going to give you a pat on the back for not drinking or smoking. You are nothing special. So stop acting that way. It bugs me. The end.

Funny, I've actually seen more people who smoke pot/drink/etc. act that way. Either way, whoever does that isn't perfect at all. Everybody's human in the end. :)

Everybody have faults. If you're not drinking or smoking, you're doing something else that's unhealthy.

Exactly. In fact, drinking Soda is absolutely horrible for your health, as are a lot of different things, but people pick. out drinking and smoking. I'm not saying I'm a fan of any of that stuff, but hey, if somebody wants to do that, it's their life, and it doesn't make them any worse or better than the rest of us.

I'm not gonna get down on people who do stuff like that (unless it becomes really bad) but I personally just don't see a need for drugs or alcohol in my own life.

And that's fine. It just bugs me when people put themselves on a pedistal because of it and let everybody they know about it.

All so true. Let's all try and be less judgemental in the future. It's really impossible to form an opinion about someone's bad (and good) habits unless you really know them well, and in person. I do alot of "bad" things, but I'm one of the most responsible and respectable people you'll never meet. :cool:

Why do people who get drunk and do drugs think that they're so cool? You see posts like, "oh yeah like Im totally drunk right now :cool:" and it bugs me. Uh, ok, you're drunk and you're posting about it online. Good for you?

And I agree that marijuana is better than alcohol.

I've never thought I'm better than somebody just because they do something I don't - I think everybody has the right to choose what they do. I may not agree with some things but I won't think I'm better just because I don't do it.

Personally I dont think that marijuana is better than alcohol. It's better for your body, yes. But I just don't like the effects compared to alcohol. Having done both, that is just my personal opinion. :bigsmile:

I drink, but I'm still better than you, Spiff. :cool:

Same here

What bugs me is people that do smoke pot or cigarettes and/or drink and they constantly bug me to try it, even after saying no. I do not mind friends doing that because they do not push the issue, but every once and a while you get someone who does.

I don't have anything against drinking/drug using. I'll have a drink occasionally. I just don't see a point.

And I think more people consider themselves better for having been drunk/done drugs than people who consider themselves better for not having done it. Though I AM at college, where the former attitude is rather prevalent.
