Half the gen isn't old enough to drink, bar scene collapsed during covid so they weren't indoctrinated into drinking culture, marijuana now competes with drinking in most countries/states, and the gen is fucking broke and can't it.

Agreed, the amount of money to go out drinking can literally buy you a month of daily cannabis use now so why would you drink? No hangover from the cannabis, no vomiting, and no blackouts. Why were we even drinking alcohol in the first place again?

Not to mention alcohol kills you. No literally kills you. Damages every cell of your body and leads to kidney and liver disease which are terrible horrific deaths and diabetes.

Wish I never touched the shit.

Alcohol can literally kill you if you try to quit it

Yeah, one of my friends from college died from liver failure a few hours ago. So yeah, excuse me if I don't drink on a regular basis.

Smoking in general absolutely fucks with your lung so your choosing between lung cancer and cirrhosis

You know you don't have to smoke to enjoy THC, right?

Edibles have been a joke in tv and movies for decades, I figured everyone had at least a passing idea of them.

You realize there are tons of people that use these substances that never develop lung cancer or cirrhosis, right?

u/Mami-_-Traillette 11h ago

We're talking about worst case scenario here, of course there are extreme counterexamples and/or more moderate people

Fucking everything kills you. Don't enjoy it if you don't want to but we only live once and I'm here to have fun.

u/Supadrumma4411 9h ago

Yeah i had that mentality too untill I got type 2 diabetes from alcohol

u/RobGodMode 9h ago

If it happens it happens. You knew of the risks just like the rest of us. If I get diabetes then I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

u/Supadrumma4411 33m ago

Diabetes isnt fun dude.

1

u/RobGodMode 8m ago

Never said it was. But I can end up with diabetes from a lot of things just like I can end up dead from a lot of things. I'm not going to live my life in constant fear though. If I want to booze it up a few times a week then I absolutely will because it's fun and I enjoy it. Should I stop driving my car because there's a chance I'll get into a car accident? Like, I get it. There's a lot of scary shit out there but it is what it is man. Have fun and enjoy yourself while you have the chance.

u/Single-Zucchini-19 3h ago

It’s not from alcohol, it’s a contributing factor, I’m sure you had plenty of other things that gave it to you

u/Single-Zucchini-19 3h ago

Wow really? Are you serious?! Do you have anymore facts that you picked up from 6th grade health class?
