1stq: why do people drink? it's alcohl! and alcohol burns the skin, and i heared one of my teachers say that alcohol burns the mouth, and alcohol also destroys the liver, and the liver z important part of the body and it has more than 500 jobs and a factory n the size of london can't even do 1 job! and the islam forbid alcohol drinks.

2ndq: why do people take drugs? it's not food or drink, it's other things that r bad 4 the body, i don't know much about drugs.

3rdq: why do people smoke cigare? it's smoke, poison, bug killer and necottean, they say when u put the necottean of the cigar n your blood it could kill the human, don't forget it contains tar! and it's smoke and brings lungs cancer.

If alchohol is so bad, why does the human body always have some?-PureDemon-

Because the body makes a ton of chemicals that are harmful to you in larger doses. . .

Answer to all of your questions: Because they're stupid.Dracargen

Not really. :?

I drink. I'm hardly an alcoholic, but if i go out with my friends or come home after a long day you bet i'll have a nice cold beer. I'm not killing my liver because i'm not pounding whiskey down my neck every night. If you drink in moderation you're not doing yourself any harm at all.

As for smoking; i'd agree that that is indeed just stupid. You know it's addictive. You know they're insanely bad for you. And you know that the more you do it the more you'll need to keep doing it. So why bother? :?

Same with drugs.

Cannabis is better for you than tobacco cigarettes.:|

That doesn't mean it's good; it's just better.

Because they think that a mind-altering substance will somehow solve their problems just by making them feel good.Funkyhamster

Some people probably do those things because:

1. They are pressured to do it, either there "friends" or people who they think are "cool" are pressuring them.

2. They see other people doing it so they do it too.

3. They decide to try it because they are depressed or something is going on in there life.

I think these are some reasons why they do it, but I wonder why people do it if they know they are bad for you.

the alcohol comes 2 the body from the cell-breathing witch means its leftovers from chemichal stuff so it goes with all left overs 2 the toilet f u understand what i mean..

Again; maybe they just do it because they like the taste of beer? They find it refreshing and delicious, especially after a hard day?

Why are we assuming people are all depressed addicts?

They usually don't know it's bad for them, or they think "eh, it won't happen to me."

Then they become addicted, and don't quit even though they become aware of the problem.

And people do drugs because they like it.

That's a tiny minority of people. :|

You're telling me most people who drink alcohol do so to an extent which causes any real harm to their liver? Or that anyone who ever tried pot became addicted and went down the path of hardcore drug addiction?

Please; alcohol is not bad for you. Cannonballing half a bottle of whiskey every day is bad for you.

I did not say everyone who drinks does it because they are depressed, only some do, but as you said, some do drink because they just like to drink.

That's why in my post I said "Some people"

Being drunk is awesome until you rock up here and rtead lame topics like this.

Fair enough. I missed that. :)

You are not serious.:|

Over nine million Americans report being addicted to alcohol every year. It is literally the most abused drug in the country.:|

You're telling me most people who drink alcohol do so to an extent which causes any real harm to their liver?

Yes.:|

Or that anyone who ever tried pot became addicted and went down the path of hardcore drug addiction?

No, though marijuana is a gateway drug.

Please; alcohol is not bad for you. Cannonballing half a bottle of whiskey every day is bad for you.

I never said all alcohol is bad for you.:|

Why do people play video games?

Escape reality, to enjoy themselves.

Well drugs are dumb, so lets get that out of the way. Only a few "drugs" such as marijuana aren't nearly as bad for you as people say. Though more powerful drugs suck as cocaine and meth are nasty stuff and really mess people up.

Smoking cigars is bad for you if you inhale the smoke. Most people I know don't actually inhale the smoke, instead they just get the taste of teh cigar in their mouths. Cigars aren't nearly as bad as cigarettes.

Then there is drinking. Drinking is actually a very safe thing to do if done in moderation. Alcohol can actually help you by killing bacteria and whatnot in your digestive track. I do drink from time to time and there is nothing unhealthy about it, when done in moderation. The problem comes when people drink way to much and to often. Then health problems come into play as well as society looking down upon them.

I think moderation is the key really. It's not so much a question of why people do these things, but why people allow them to take over their lives.

For everybody else, who enjoys the occassional beer, or maybe tried pot as a teenager, it's really no big deal at all.

"Alcohol may be man's worst enemy, but the bible says love your enemy."-Frank Sinatra

"Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night - be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels."-Frank Sinatra

Because alcohol, drugs, and tobacco get you high.

Getting high feels good.

Therefore, people use alcohol, drugs, and tobacco.

Uh...no. That's just stupid. That would be like me claiming that you play videogames in order to solve your problems.

Probably because they were force to do it. Like some parents high on drugs tell's the kids to take some. Or people want to try and see what happens :shock:.

Either that they followed the wrongs friends and they want to be cool like their friends and take it.

BAD!

You have take ask about their live to know why.

Or maybe english simply isn't his first language? :|

Because people don't care? I could care less if i have problems or die when i get older. Truth is, this world is too much for a sane person. We are not obligated to live it. It won't make us a better person to take it all on ourselves. We all need a way to let ourselves out.

Some people go drink at night, some go smoke drugs to the beach, some go smoke cigarretes anywhere they want

i drink at parties

i don't do drugs

and i enjoy the occasional cigar
