    No nothing wrong,,,,but my biggest bong friends,,,,multiple pounds since NYs?

    Maybe you need to buy better stuff, over quantity.

    what?

    I live in Boulder where my new friends buy it legally. I'm an outsider now. but if you did a pound or more since NYs, I'm saying you are selling your self short on quality.

    just saying: Cost/Benefit analysis. And please give us back your results

    Lavender!
    Diesel?

    I didn't have a drink for the first 19 years of my life. Since I first had a drink, I've probably gone weeks, maybe even 2-3 months without a drink. Over the past few months, I've hung out a lot with my friend's family, and they're always stocked with a ton of beer. So lately I've probably only gone 2-3 days without having a couple.

    For me, bud is a worse habit than alcohol. My mental addiction to smoking is far stronger than my need for alcohol (don't do cigs, though). I always have the best intentions of quitting, til someone shows up at my doorstep with that little magical fragrant nug. :(

    What a waste. All that smoke going to waste while you're not hitting that blunt. You need to invest in a water bong and better weed. Unless of course you have a tree that grows money.

    Four months for me :)

    I honestly have no idea when was the last day I went without something to drink. Some days I'll just have one...or even a partial one (taste). (I'm in the wine business...)

    I think I took a solid year break from regular booze (maybe drank once or twice every 3 months) around 2008-2009.

    Man, what a boring ass year that was.

    Yo mikol, go check the p90x thread...

    I've gone a couple of months on seperate occasions withought drinking before. But ususally when I go too long withought a drink, I start to miss the taste. Nothing beats an ice cold beer. :)

    I went on a health kick and workout spree for about 8 months a few years ago.

    I don't drink. Can't stand the taste of alcohol.

    Most alcohol I've ever had at a time was probably two sips.

    A bunch of my friends have told me the same thing about smoking blunts, but I enjoy them so much. I can't stand sitting there and lighting bowl after bowl, unlike anoint where you just sit back & relax on it.

    I smoke a mixture of Dro and Reggie, I have two plants growing in my closet, but they are Reggie plants :(

    I just like to smoke a lot, I really don't see it as an addiction. There's days where it doesn't even cross my mind. Legal bud? Ha only **** we have to legal bid is that Serenity (incest) bull****, I tried that crap and never trying it again.

    I will look in to getting a bong tho or vaporizer :)

    Maybe 2 weeks. No biggy, just like anything else I typically consume. Sometimes I'll have a sandwich 3 days in a row, and then 2 weeks until the next one. Same thing.

    Good for you. You're aware of your family history and taking steps to make sure that you don't follow the same path. That's admirable. I'm in much the same situation: my Dad had some problems controlling his alcohol consumption, and it's made me cognizant of the problem. As a result, I usually only have two or three drinks a year. And I'm very careful not to drive when I've imbibed.

    A glass of wine every once in a while is fine. But if you notice your consumption increasing, you should curb it immediately. Alcoholism is insidious, and can sneak up on you. Better to err on the side of caution.

    Living without alcohol is easy. Living with alcoholism is really, really hard. Take the easy route.

    Yeah, I'm still crazy cautious, I'm not going to be full on drinker. I'll still probably go at least months at a time in between a glass or two tops.

    Plus I have a one year old, that I'm setting an example for. My family is far too important to me to ever become what my father did.

    Good stuff, rep coming when I can again, apparently I've given too much today.

    Just to be clear, I'm not the guy saying "alcohol is bad mmmkay" i'm not against people drinking. With my family history, I just need to know and do know my limits. :cool:

    I was the same, worried about perpetuating a family history of alcohol abuse. I never drank as a teenager, but I've moderated my view as an adult and find that I'm really in no danger of being an alcoholic -- though having children does sometimes make me feel like I really need a drink.
