    Kinda sucks when you don’t drink though. Best advice I’ve heard was to take up a social hobby, but I haven’t a clue what that would be either.

    Like you said, find an excuse to leave your house I guess.

      The problem with that is that I have zero tolerance for stupidity and superstition, so I’d have a lousy time in most conversations or initial dates.

      “What sign are you?”

      “Check!”

      “What church do you go to?”

      “Check!”

      I think there need to be social locations like bars for people who don’t drink (or don’t drink a lot) but do use cannabis. Weed “bars” where you can have a similar social situation with a different type of social lubricant that gets people talking.

      That still wouldn’t cover everyone, obviously, but it would add to the mix.
