I do get really pissed off over peer pressure and those who don't even try to fight it. THAT is where I draw the line. I chewed my Dad out one of the last times I saw him since I turned 21. He bought me a drink because he could, and I refused to drink it. I didn't say I wanted a drink, and I was slightly appalled that he wanted me to drink just because I was of age.

My stepfather's in AA, so I tend to watch my own habits a little closer out of respect for him, and so does my Mom (and they've both stopped smoking, I'm really proud of them for that). I'll never drink to get smashed, I hate that feeling; I'm trying my best to not use it as an excuse to deal with my depression; and I'll probably stop eating fast food long before I completely cut out alcohol, but they're my choices, just as anyone else's. I live in a college town and go out almost every night for free shows at this one lounge and I just want to say that I can't EVER see myself equated to some of the people who get so tottered that they can't even enjoy their evening straightly--there IS such a thing as responsible drinking. :D

I'm not perfect and I have my vices but I feel on top of them and in control of them and can respect myself for that.

Well, that's your path. I'd like to see everyone - whether I know them or not - choosing a clean lifestyle, because it's ultimately better for them, but if you're managing it in moderation and that's how you're living your life I'm not going to stop you.

I still want to punch the stoners on my flist, though.

I hated pot, never doing it again.

Half-Baked is one of my favorite movies though. BUTTERNUTS.
