Like Void said, it's all in moderation. Don't be afraid to take a hit of that joint of bong being passed around the party, it won't kill you. Drinking and driving is where it gets deadly, definately no winning combination. We've all seen and heard of it, and it's no fun carrying your best buddy's casket down the aisle, or the opposite. You never know what the idiot driving your ride is thinking. Pot Smoking is a real downer. It's a crutch that zaps any motivation. Take it from me, I've tried it too many times to tell you wrong. You know you have a problem when you are dependant on a substance to have fun and enhance your personality, you're not like this, but a lot of people are. Partying is something you should experience, as a social life is important, just don't get a girl pregnant and mess up your future. It happens in a blink of an eye.
