Inspired by another question on this community about “the first time you drank alcohol”, so I was just feeling like I’m the odd one out here.
I personally have never smoked (neither tobacco nor weed), never drank any alcohol. (Parents also don’t do smoking, or drinking, or gambling so I kinda got lucky with the environment I grew up in, I guess…) Is that unusual? Gen Z btw.
Elder millennial. I think we were the last gen where cigarettes, booze, and drugs were seen as “cool”. Younger people seemed to have figured it out early how much of a fucking waste of time and money all three are.
I’d agree with the “cool” factor for drugs and booze, and maybe it’s regional or class-based, but cigarettes always seemed trashy when I was growing up
Who is drinking because they think it makes them look cool? Drinking at home isn’t to impress others.

I agree with you on the nicotine and alcohol, but you will have to pry my pot from my cold dead hands.
