let's be honest here, smoking and drinking are both bad for our physical well being. but what i don't get is why is it that there are some guys on here that are fine with drinking every weekend, but are so judge mental of the occasional smoker? i haven't drank in eight months. i never plan to drink again due to a terrible experience, lol. but I enjoy the occasional cigarette. and when i say occasional, i mean i bought a pack four months ago, and i still have eleven cigarettes in that pack. that averages out to roughly one cig every two weeks. i'm in no way trying to say that i'm better than the guys who get wasted every weekend, i'm just asking why is it generally more acceptable to binge drink every weekend than it is to light up the occasional cigarette?

why does smoking seem to get so much heat on this forum, but drinking doesn't?

most people think drinking isn't as bad as it really is, and smoking is worse than it really is

the people who get drunk (most of them) get drunk on the weekends occasionally.
whereas the people who smoke weed tend to smoke everyday and post debate threads about why everyone should just smoke weed. they also try to argue that weed has no health side effects what so ever.
at the end of the day. drinkers just drink cause it's what is available and legal to do. whereas smokers make the smoking weed as part of their personaliteis

People need to justify their own life choices, and tend to take issue with things that don't really matter.
The only real issue I have with smoking is that it affects those around you via second hand smoke, but lets be cereal here, I am pretty sure more people die from being hit by a drink driver on a yearly basis then people being killed by second hand smoke.

Not a drinker or smoker though, I have a glass of wine with dinner once or twice a month, but I haven't been drunk since my 21st birthday, and I never drank prior to that.Starting weight- May 14 2011- 184
Current weight- 136

what really pissed me off the other day was when my buddy, who also lifts, told me i might as well give up completely in regards to bodybuilding, bc i occasionally smoke. mind you, this kid smokes a weed weekly and kills a 40 every Friday night. it's just hypocrisy.

is it even possible to smoke occasionally? most people would agree not, i think?
therefore, smoking = smoker (+slew of other negative connotations that devalues the smoker as a person)
drinking = interpreted as drinking occasionally (which is socially normal, unless the person has a drinking problem, which most people convince themselves that they dont)
see the difference?

IMO drinking is only bad if you do it constantly and binge. I'm not against drinking, but it defientely can be abused.
