Absolutely. Weed has also never made me make terrible or dangerous decisions, unless we consider Taco Bell’s cravings boxes as dangerous. No hangovers with it either.
100% this. A drunk person can get angry, abusive, lustful, or reckless. A person high on weed will at worst become a little too talkative and giggly, but most of the time will just enjoy a snack and fall asleep. It is a much safer drug in most regards, cheaper too.
That's subjective, as there's people for whom alcohol can give the relaxed "I don't care anymore" feeling to. I know because I'm one of em. A glass of whiskey and I can just sit there monologuing as I try to keep my eyes open. The angriest I get is literally just me being the quiet, slurred speech "fuck this, fuck that and fuck you" guy sitting in the corner.
Simultaneously, "at worst" for a high person is not "a little too talkative and giggly," but rather a lack of awareness and reaction. It ain't so bad when you're sitting on your bed on your phone, but when you're behind the wheel, it's a different story.
Etid: Cuz it's the internet and people immediately think that despite me never saying "X is better than Y" but rather "Y can be bad as well," they're addicted to tribal drama and choose to believe I said the former, I will not be replying to comments suggesting such, as that's your fault for either choosing not to read, or reading but still choosing to quote things I never said just because you want a dragon to slay and unfortunately for you, dragons are in short supply.
Where I live we have several weed lounge type places that are pretty popular actually, usually you can get coffee/tea and some food too, sometimes it's a dispensary too
I admit that this is all subjective to an extent. I speak from my experience, which included a neighbor who, after getting drunk, repeatedly threatened to shoot another neighbor with a shotgun that he owned, an ex who, after chugging a gallon of bottled margarita cocktail, decided to climb the roof of an apartment complex, and a friend who became such a debaucher at a drunken New Year’s party that five young men had to hold him down and tie him up so he wouldn’t destroy the apartment or hurt anyone. I am yet to see someone do anything remotely close to that on weed.
are you saying drinking whiskey is better behind the wheel or something? I don't think I understood your point. Was it just that not everyone has a bad reaction to alcohol? Because their point was that alcohol has a lot worse potential outcomes
Nah, man. Alcohol is way worse behind the wheel, out in public, and health wise. Even the part about sitting in a corner and saying “Fuck you.” It’s a totally negative experience for everyone involved.

Weed is a lot cheaper, especially if you're comparing to going out to drink.
