Anyway, between dealing between the dumb drunks and dumb stoners back in my partying days, I prefer the drunks (as long as they aren't driving). They don't steal all of my food and they don't try to be super-philopsophical and make no sense at all.

My college boyfriend (and his roommates/friends) were constantly smoking, and it really seemed like it was the most important thing in their lives sometimes. It got really old, really quick. Drunk people can be annoying, bothersome, dangerous, etc., but so can people who smoke marijuana. In that regard, I guess I don't see a huge difference between alcoholics who drink daily and stoners who smoke daily. I don't particularly want to be around either, and I certainly don't want them on the roads.
