Cannabis versus Alcohol. What is your favored recreational drug?

Alcohol, but I like weed too. If my wife was more into weed I'd smoke more, right now I mostly stick to low strength edibles
Weed nearly destroyed my life but I don't have a problem with alcohol so I gotta give it to alcohol even though it's toxic in it's own right
wife and i started doing edibles about a year and a half ago and have started drinking less and less. Its legal here though. It depends whst we ate doing in public or doing like a pen and paper game definitely alcohol, playing a more chill game or watching movies then weed all day. Aquaman in 4k on weed was fucking incredible.
Recreationally, it's weed for sure. Alcohol is starting to wear on me and I'm just getting tired of it. I partied hard in my 20s and early 30s and I'm just over it.
My favorite drug to experience is acid/LSD, but I only do that once every few years so it doesn't qualify here haha.

If cannabis was legal here in Texas and the exact same price as what I spend on alcohol already I would be 100% into that shit but as it stands it's illegal here first off and then on top of that getting enough to last me even a moderate amount of time is inordinately expensive.
The alcohol versus cannabis debate for me is literally the exact same thing as the real meat versus fake meat debate. If it still tasted amazing and it was still just as affordable and readily available I would be all in, but the problem is that it isn't for me.

Rocket League is easily my favorite game while smoking. I typically put on a playlist on Spotify while playing too.
Always a good time. Like when you have a day off and your hit the blunt while drinking a coffee.
I'm 37, well and truely in the drinker catagory. Started as a early teen drinking white lightning, lambrini and 20/20 like a classy british teen. Dabbled with weed (hash was more common for whatever reason back then, well where i was from anyway) a few times around then and whiteyed.
Tried weed multiple times throughout my life since then with the most recent being last year and just never enjoyed the feeling. I'm sure it's down to me though but I have effectively given up at this point so i'll just stick with booze!

They're kinda for two different things. And despite my post above generally not best to mix them.
alcohol is a social lubricant. Weed is more of a close friendship chilling vibe.
it certainly can be smoked with folks you've never met but I find in those situations it's still best for like a media consumption activity (seeing a band/show or a movie etc). Of course you have all kinds of different strains but it it boils down to indica and sativa, indica best for just chilling with some folks at home, sativa better for daytime or new things/people, and then all kinds of hybrids in between.
If ya mix alcohol and weed best to stick to like light beers/not get too drunk and then some sativa/sativa heavy hybrid.
if you're proper drunk indica never gonna be good time and you're just gonna wanna go home and hit the sack.
Weed. I didn't really drink during college for real, but I've always loved getting high. To the point that I'm unable to smoke because I need to be clean for the job I'm trying to get, and it's nudged me toward wine/whiskey, and I fucking hate it. Being drunk is worse in every way.
Being cross-faded is ok, but I'd really never drink if I could smoke without consequence.

yep a small amount of booze with a fair bit of weed is a good time. I my experience the opposite, proper drunk plus a small amount of good weed less likely to go as well lol
Oh I wasn't clear I guess but ive certainly never mixed booze and weed, last few times I tried was just me and my wife at home.
I need to try edibles i think but they are harder to get in the UK....
Done a bunch of drugs in my life, alcohol is the only one that stayed because it's the only one that I actually enjoy doing in the moment. Getting a drug just to get wasted.. you gotta do it a few times, but stop if it becomes a habit.
Also smoking is not good for your health wtf.
Also Also, I've never been as nauseous as after a space cake. You're good the next day? Pull the other one.

Cannabis for me. I really only do edibles and weed drinks, which I like to call "potables". I don't consume them often enough to build a tolerance towards them, so anything with 10mg is good enough for me, plus it's cheaper than buying an 8-pack of beer or even a mickey of hard liquor.
Edit: And yeah, no hangover is a major plus, though I almost never get drunk enough to have one.
