Same boat, except I do enjoy a nice cigar once in a while, and a good beer. But the cigars are very far apart to kick any nicotine addiction and the beers are never to get drunk.

I drink from time to time; whiskey, beer, vodka, tequila, etc.

And I smoke cigars from time to time, usually while I'm drinking.

My friends and I have a hookah that we smoke as well. I love it.

I smoke weed on the rare occasion that it's available and I feel like doing so (in the sense that it's been available and I've passed on multiple occasions)...

Overall it just makes me slightly twitchy, then really tired... Some people told me that describes a "bad high" or something, and to try better "stuff"... But it happens everytime, even while my friends are like "ZOMG DOOD THIS STUFF'S REALLY FARKIN' WITH ME MAN, DOOD THIS IS GREAT STUFF ZOMG"...

... So you can see why I've passed on multiple occasions...

The only time it's really messed with me was when I had smoked a ton, then drank, then smoked a bunch more...

I kinda spent an hour or so on some guy's kitchen floor...

Alcohol by itself, on the other hand, I rather enjoy the effects of... Not a huge fan of the taste... But I deal... Especially if I'm already drunk...

Typically just beer and malt liquor for me... Occasionally a screwdriver...
I tried whiskey once... Nasty...

Oh and I don't smoke cigarettes... They funky...
Hookah neither (it seems to be one of the 'in' things nowadays, what with hookah bars popping up left and right, kids bringing them to parties, etc)...
And as for the 'hard stuff'... I'll pass...

I experimented with drugs in college, and actually smoked a good amount of pot, but after graduating I basically gave it all up. Even my drinking has gone down a lot over the passed few years.

Here's a little view into your futures: When you hit about 26 or 27, your body starts getting REALLY PISSED when you drink too much. Hangovers to me used to mean popping a few advil with a gatorade chaser in the morning... now my hangovers consist of about 24 hours of dry heaving, fever and the shakes.

Never done any drugs. I've been tempted to smoke weed in the past, but have just never gotten to the stage of actually doing. I started drinking in college and I enjoy it. Probably drank relatively heavily there (at least getting drunk 3 nights a week), but now that I'm not there I barely drink because of my age anyways...

What I dont understand is how people do shots of Vodka. Vodka is just plain sick if its not mixed with something. Tequilla is without question better, but some people flat out deny that.

I had vodka some weeks ago, just the plain stuff. It wasn't that bad. It's basicly water with alcohol... which doesn't taste bad. Doesn't taste very good either.

I had a glass of port tonight, I'll probably take another one.

Vodka is fine. Gin is nasty. Beefeater gin being the nastiest thing I ever ingested ever. But was intrigued by a Blackalicious song to give it a try.

Copperfield, pen bend, topple and kill end men
Send them, in wind, tremblin', off of them skills
Gift of Gab, boy have you steered me wrong.

I took a drink of my friend's straight-up vodka and I thought it was fine...
Granted I was already drunk, as given away by the fact that I drank my friend's vodka...

I don't share drinks... Or food...

And I wash my hands at least 100 times a day...

... Ok maybe that last part isn't true...

Whiskey is nasty by itself (wait I already said that)... And rum is nasty no matter what...

I wash my hands quite often as well. When I'm home at least.
I learned to share glasses (or bottles) when I became a student. Though I still won't drink stuff from my family or some old friends...... weird actually.

Whisky is actually my favorite hard alcohol to just drink straight...It's better with Coke or Dr. Pepper of course, but I like taking shots of it.

Definitely my favorite..Then Gin and Vodka. I really am not a fan of rum or tequilia, they kinda make me sick.

Eh, I tried pot a few times, supposedly some really great stuff but I guess I couldn't tell. I dont' know why but the high wasn't really noticable enough for me to want to do it. I might try it again if given the opportunity but drug screens are a very real possibility around here with me job hunting at the moment so I'll probably play it safe.

Aside from that, I never drank until my last breakup which was... a couple years ago now I suppose. So, I never drank until after my 18'th. Now I go out and get fairly drunk once or twice a month with my friends.

Never tried anything else, not really interested in anything else.
