sweet you found it :thumbsup:

poll of the year, hands down

current score:

Blunts and bongs!
442 votes 49.17 (%)
Booze!
457 votes 50.83 (%)
 
herbs would win this poll by a long shot if it were legal just because there are a lot of people who are against weed have been brainwashed into believing that it's really bad for you(more so than alcohol). And since they haven't ever tried it, they would flat out pick alcohol just because it's legal and therefor it must be lesser of two evils.

Having tried both(and I've drank more than I smoke), I would still pick weed. I quit herbs 3 years ago just because it's illegal(stupid reason to but w/e). On a sidenote, I don't smoke cigarettes(I've tried) and just plain hate it and would never do it again. So... how can you not appreciate a vice where it has a blend that's named Kryptonite? 😉

I think this poll would be more "fair" if only people who have tried both are allowed to vote.
 
Pretty sure I voted alcohol way back when, but I dunno now. I think I still stick with it, as long as tobacco products are still legal.
 
Wow, pretty close...

I choose blunts over booze.

Alcohol will always screw up your liver and lead to heart disease or dependency or other issues.

Weed isn't very habit forming and you can eat it without screwing up your lungs.

True, I left out some obvious advantages and disadvantages to both, and if I could I would do both in moderation, but I gotta go with weed.

I bet if you did a poll in holland, where weeds been legal and available for decades, alcohol would still win by a long shot. Its just a more popular and social drug, despite the fact that it's more damaging to the user.
