Maybe I shouldnt have typed 'lame', but really, whats your reasoning FFOS? I have an aunt & uncle that only smoked once in their lives. The reason? B/c they were drunk at the time, got high, then threw up. The weed didnt make them throw up (it actually counteracts nausea), but they sure as hell thought it was the reason, so they've missed out on all of the benefits and experiences the herb had to offer b/c of a simple misunderstanding. Hopefully you arent the same way. Dont let some down experience or not getting high off some ditch weed sour your attitude towards the wonders of marijuana.
I agree with you on the drinking though, alcohol is a toxic chemical and solvent. It's just hard to pass up sometimes, especially when its free.
