drinking is so played, its so dangerous too. alot worse than weed. ( i've never smoked weed) but i can say i've seen the affects of alcohol. sure it can be fun if you do it responsibly, but theirs so much to take into consideration...death ? would you want to die over alcohol because you may think its all fun in games...no
i know an alcoholic and its not pretty, or fun in games at all. i know this alcoholic very well. and its disgusting what they can do, and say when their drunk. its not all fun in games. alcohol is very dangerous. call me a pussy i don't give a shit because i don't drink or smoke, to me i'd rather smoke because, its natural, and alcohol is man made. you can't get addicted to pot, but you sure the hell can get addicted to alcohol, and when you do its not pretty, it can destroy you're body and you're family. its happened to mine. it's shitty.  sorry i just thought i had to say something about that.
pots natural, just don't get forced to do it. if you want to try it, go for it to see what its like. i've always thought about trying it but i never have. it's totally you're decision but my personal decision would smoke > drinking.
