The Iowa guy thread got me thinking about vices. Substance not other.. First off, your preference. I'm sure liking gummies after decades of not using it. So many alternatives available. Not hung over in morning. Always calming vs what booze brings. No calories.


Depends. I prefer alcohol in moderation if with other people. If I'm just chilling at home I like a chewbie chew before relaxing on the front porch.
 
Pop an edible and have a couple drinks. It is the best feeling and and I don't feel hungover the next day and I sleep great. Gotten more into weed the last couple years. Knowing how I feel after having a few drinks vs having some weed and I know which once is taking way less of a toll on my health.

If I am going out drinking I will eat a gummy. It saves me money and the drunk/high is perfect
 
Edibles, isn’t close. I get drug tested though… so I drink booze. I don’t abuse anything, but there are many times where I just think the amount of calories alcohol contains, plus the toll it takes on your liver is just dumb. Back in my college days I would drink like a fish and smoke cigarettes. When I quit smoking, I kept drinking and I quickly found I gained a **** load of weight from replacing smoking with eating on top of booze. My parents and my siblings and my wife all enjoy edibles, they don’t get out of their mind, just a nice chill vibe.
Use either quick fix or sub solution and you will never get busted dropping a UA. Easy as pie. Get some hand warmers and do a couple of testing runs and you're good. They use synthetic urine to calibrate their machines. They don't know the difference.

Since Illinois legalized it, have been enjoying using some Sleepytime gummies to help with sleeping. Not an everyday thing, but just when I know I need to be able to fall asleep quickly and stay asleep through the night it definitely make a world of difference.

Never done either because of fears of how I would possibly abuse due to severe anxiety and stress issues (caused by ADHD, OCD, and severe anxiety/depression). Biological father was a heavy drug user/drunk and saw too much of the impacts.

Would likely greatly benefit from the weed and spiral out of control from the alcohol. Unfortunately, I’ve had to accept that stress will likely end up killing me in my 40s instead.

But on a brighter note – go Cyclones!
