ever smoked before in my life. I will never get high and I am proud of it.
I will never get myself 'drunk', and I am proud of it.

cool story bro?

Do it, see what it's all about, decide whether you like it or not, decide from there.

Life is for living, not for modesty.

Vouch
but each to their own

Although i do like the occasional beer every now and then

just because you smoke and drink does not mean your living life. or at least to tai, if you like to smoke and drink and consider that living life, grats.
its fun and all but really has nothing to do with living life imo

That happens to not be what I said at all. All I'm saying is have a reason not to do something before you decide not to, don't decide not to do something because a certain part of society or whatever deems it unacceptable. Only you know what you like and what is fun.

But what is deemed unacceptable and acceptable is considered by the society. Eating cats may be acceptable in China, but not in America. What do you do now but to be judged and get peer-pressured?

this is what i tried telling him to and he said thats what the mass wants you to do, is to try it. :/

either way, it doesnt matter really because its all about your morals, and how your brought up, ur beliefs, religion if you have one, everyones different so

I'm not here to get into a debate about this with you Tai, it's your life, if people don't respect you for your choices, fuck 'em I guess.
