Well, before I can even post my "happy new year" post, this thread has already shifted topics :D.
Personally, I don't drink, don't smoke, and don't do any drugs (besides, of course, medicinal drugs such as acetaminophen). That is a personal choice I made long ago after witnessing the tragic results of smoking and alcohol, and you don't need to be even borderline intelligent to realize how bad illegal substances are for you. I don't preach though, if you choose to do such things to your body, nobody (least of all me) will or can convince you to stop. So, if it's your wish, then do as you please with your own body. So long as it does not affect me, you may shorten your lifespan just as much as you like.

Ah, such a pleasant thread turned so deathly serious :D
