4. had that happen to me a couple times lately
in the dating scene. one woman, a part time bartender, during a phone conversation, after rhapsodizing over some brand of whiskey she was having an affair with, brought up the fact that i hinted at enjoying kin' bud in my profile, and told me toking was a deal breaker.

5. Maybe just the wrong woman for you.
I myself enjoy fine brewed and distilled products as well as Nature's Other Bounties. And I met someone who agrees.

6. she contacted me first. heck, i hadn't even decided if i was going to meet her yet.
just found her attitude about self-medicating to be a somewhat ironic.

7. Good early warining sign, then.
And who says ya can't brush your teeth before lip-lockin'? Or at least use a breath strip or a mint or something.

2. They probably think they have standing to do that, since alcohol
is legal and pot isn't.

3. I usually see it the other way around.
Smoking, too.

"I don't smoke. It's disgusting!"

"I just saw you sucking on a bong!"

"That's not smoking-smoking"

"Ummmmmmmm....OK"

"Hey, can I get one of those cigs?"

"Sure!"

10. Ah, but I don't drink, or smoke.... but it doesn't give me a sense of bieng superior,
or better, or cleaner, or even healthier, and I don't feel an urge to tell people about how I don't and they do either.

Perhaps there is something wrong with me. ;)

Well,unless someone gets insistent.... I swear, the next person to tell me how I need to let go of whatever bullshit assumptions they've made about me will get a piece of my mind.
