Thank you, exactly.

Indeed. But as I said before I feel its a much bigger gateway when something everyone uses is illegal. Are you more likely to buy some harder drugs if your getting weed from a shady dude down the street or a coffee shop that requires you to pay tax to the government?

And dont say thats different, its IDENTICAL.

oh I wouldn't know - alcohol makes me sick - I only drink sake and that's only cos it's pretty distilled

I dont mean the effects, I mean the essence of what it is. A mind altering substance your putting in your body.

I find that if a person really likes alcohol, they tend to overdo it, rather than seek other channels

up to the point that you get hallucinations when you're sober

Alcohol is really getting the best of me now. I feel depressed and awful the next day EVEN if I've only had 2 glasses. Also it completely screws up sleeping. Personally, as much as I love the taste and feeling of it, I'd probably be quite happy to not have it again.

In regards to illegal drugs, the only one I would take is Ecstacy, merely because if it was legalized it would be far more regulated and less full of crap. But the rest should be illegal as they can take over your life in horrible ways. Even if someone offered me millions I wouldn't touch p or heroin.

Eating weed is the way to go. I've had brownies and cake a few times. Can't taste the weed at all, but you get such an incredible high from it. Of all the bud I have smoked, nothing got me higher than brownies and it was just so enjoyable. There's literally no harmful consequences.

I've never had such a good dunt off grass than when I ate it. It was literally the best high I've had from it. I don't think I'd waste my time and effort on smoking it now.

Smoking is half the fun though. It would be like having birthday cake without blowing out the candle because some wax dripped on the frosting.
