When it comes to drinking, I'm rather hypocritical. I don't support it at all. I don't like to see others drinking.

Same thing happened to me with vodka. For the longest time after, I couldn't even get a whif of it or I'd want to barf. I can drink it now again, but I've learned my lesson. I don't drink to the point of puking anymore. It ruins the night if you do.

My parents don't care if I have one of there beers or some wine when they have some.

I just don't like the taste so I don't drink.

If it tastes bad I am not gonna drink it ok jeesus!

I drink for the taste not the drunky feeling, means I have a pint a night with my dinner and maybe a few more on the weekend. But I'm not an alcoholic but I've drank since I was 6(accidentally)

dont drink pretty much at all, most things i dont like the taste of and the main reason is i hate HATE how most people behave when drunk. the occasional drink has been proven to have health benefits so im fine with drinking in moderation not LOL LETS GET BOMBED

meh. i don't know. i mainly don't drink because i try to keep as un-toxic as possible to my body. but i don't refuse a drink when offered. it's mostly social with me, especially since i'm not old enough. but there are some days when i'm like "holy crap, i am SO freaking sick of writing papers and studying for tests" and i just wanna relax. you know?

I drink, not often maybe once a week but enjoy the green leaf daily.

I'm not sure whats worse for you, drinking effects your brain stomach and kidneys and liver and pot effects your brain and lungs?

BTW: Skyone that picture is awesome.

Actually marijuana smoke isn't bad for your lungs, believe it or not, and the brain affects are temporary. Over time though marijuana is bad because you become psychologically dependent, and then you FEEL you need weed for things, and since you really think you need it, you do. But weed isn't physically addictive at all.

That happened to my uncle with Pepsi! He used to love Pepsi. He'd get one everyday from the vending machine in the airport (he's an air traffic controller). Then one day, a co-worker of his brought a whole case up to the tower. They drank a lot of it, and ever since, he can't stand the taste of Pepsi.

On topic: I don't drink. I don't even like any kind of soda/pop/whatever you feel like calling it. Milk, 100% juice (real juice), and water ftw!

Yeah! I had a Bertie Bott's pepper-flavored jelly bean and I couldn't smell/taste pepper for a year without wanting to barf.

Drinker. I've been somewhat muddle-headed a few times over the years, but I've never truly been drunk. I enjoy the taste too much to abuse it to the point where I don't enjoy myself.

As for the drinking age, I've been ignoring it and undermining all my life. I'll happily buy for underagers, but if they don't abide by my rules, I won't. They can't go out in public, if there's a parent around, they have to know what's going on, and I limit how much I'll buy them. I figure if I teach them to enjoy themselves responsibly, they're less likely to cause trouble on the day they turn legal.

It wasn't the taste that bothered me, it was just my body completely rejected it. It's strange but also amazing how your body tries to prevent things that don't belong from getting into your body.

countless studies have been done on the affects of marijuana. mostly, if not all, agree that alcohol is way worse for you than marijuana will ever be.

i personally believe in decriminalizing it. we're crowding our prisons with the wrong people.
