news flash
all that alchohol you drink is a drug
booze is one thing - I know dudes who abuse x , dope, mushrooms, etc.  Not even close.  
I have never even smoked a joint in my life, but I have friends who go to NYC clubs and do all sorts of crazy shit.   Not the same.   
when I drink, I get buzzed, not blitzed.   Is it a drug in some sense?   Probably, but no way as potent as LSD, heroin, etc.
