Anyway, I draw the corollary thusly: If you really think that booze and pot are equivalent, assuming pot wasn't illegal, would you feel comfortable at the dinner table after a nice meal with your boss, parents or children:

a) having a wine or a beer or a scotch & soda

b) lighting up a joint


If you can honestly answer b), then let's just say you're either a liar trying to bust balls on an internet forum or... just not really the kind of person I'd care to be around (which I'm sure the feeling is mutual, to the satisfaction of both).

It's harder to light up a joint. Smoking anything is already frowned upon indoors because it's not something you keep to yourself. If then the choice is between drinking scotch and eating a pot brownie I could honestly go either way.

Drunk assholes and High assholes are equally annoying.
