No, I've never drank alchohol or smoked cigarettes or done any drugs and I won't be starting with any of those anytime soon. Well, unless you count the painkillers (strong stuff) I was on for a week after I had my wisdom teeth this summer... not the same, but the closest thing I can think of.
For alchohol, perhaps (moderation is okay), which is why I used "getting drunk"; the term means more than just moderation... but for drugs or cigarettes, any is too much. You only need to read so many articles about the immediate and irrevocable harms of smoking to know that any is too much... as for drugs, I'm just opposed. Unless they are on a perscription from your doctor and you got them at the pharmacy. (as for over-the-counter drugs, only if they're taken the way they are supposed to... but I personally don't really like taking them either if I can help it)
