    I was clean living up until whatever age you join the pioneers in school, that's when I had my first drink.

    I don't drink, smoke, or take drugs.

    I tried smoking a joint once, but it had no effect on me. I think I did it wrong though :p

    Never smoked in my life, never will. Never taken drugs that were not prescription... well thats not quite true... i did have a hash brownie once... did not feel any different...
    I did not start drinking till late though.

    Tallagh01 - you're as good!! Honestly didn't think I'd find anyone who didn't do ANY of those things...

    Myself...I drink (in moderation...most of the time, lol, had my first drink when I was 16, didn't start properly really till I was about 19), have tried smoking a cig about twice ever (in extreme stupidity when I've been drunk, but couldn't), and never or will never touch any kind of drug!

    Actually, I have to admit I smoked a few fags when I was a teenager to impress girls.

    It even occasionally worked

    Me too.
    Took the pledge and broke it about an hour later. I was quite the rebel.

    I have a couple of friends who have never drank, smoked or taken drugs.

    Well, one ate a space cake or two when he was in Amsterdam, but that's all.

    I've never taken drugs (too scared), like an odd glass of wine and I'm almost 5 years off the cigarettes - is that clean enough?

    No! Your still dirty, your a dirty girl.

    It looks cool, glamorous, sophisticated, rock 'n' roll, sexy (Shane McGowan - phwoar!), rebellious... need I go on?

    Don't smoke or do drugs, but have been known to sip a pint or a glass of wine.

    I actually know someone who does not smoke/take drugs or drink.... although i think he would take the odd sip of wine at a special occasion, for the most part he does not even drink.

    I took the pledge and didn't break it (I didn't renew the pledge though, I think you had to do that after 2-3 years) , when I was a kid I had a sip of wine once and decided I hated alcohol so I didn't start drinking until I was 17. I still don't smoke or take drugs probably because of the amount of sport I do. I don't drink much these days but thats because its really expensive to drink in pubs here and I'm too tired to bother going anywhere except the odd sauna party.

    Man, thinking of that pledge thing brings back memorys, I was such a devoted catholic back then now I'm an atheist. How things have changed :D

    Never smoked and no drugai but had some wine that someone bought us for our wedding, tasted rotten (probably because my pallet wouldn't know a one type of wine from the other). :)

    Alcohol tastes horrible. You just have to get past that to the drunkin' part. Then you have to find an alcohol that tastes less rotten than the rest.

    I don't drink, smoke, bet on women, or ride horses.

    Ah but would you bet on women riding horses? :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    I don't smoke, I can't drink, and only had a couple of "special" krispie buns before. Not out of some "clean-living" vibe, just cuz I don't feel the inclination to smoking or drugs. Alcohol was out after becoming intolerant to it after surgery.
