It's about time alcohol has been replaced as the people drug, what would you suggest?

Fuck You, thats why!
I think alcohols had its time and it should be replaced with another drug with the same or safer addiction profile.What would you replace it with?
 
I think cannabis is about the only practical substance to replace alcohol and hopefully keeps moving towards this direction of acceptance.
 
^Cannabis is a horrible replacement for alcohol. Mind you I don't drink anymore and enjoy smoking weed, but for gettin rowdy in party situations weed is not that good.
 
lol keep the replies coming, I think the problem with weed is it makes most people including myself paranoid and anti-social.Alcohol can also do this but I dont think it happens as much.
 
if i could choose (unrealistically) the new socially acceptable drug it would be angel dust. i'd love to be in the club and everyone's dusted, hell i wish the whole world was dusted.
 
I'd think it would be something similar with a lower side effect or addiction profile.

Kava would fit the bill if it didn't taste so wonky

Kratom might, but its a tricky one to get the ROA right, who wants to eat capsules or make tea (same with kava) when alcohol taste so good?

Pot is already a people's drug, it is kind of hard to include it in this discussion since its so prevalent already. Reasons keeping it from top spot? Price, legality, too many different strains compared to alcohol which is a single substance that is more predictable. Pot you have THC, cbd, etc

I'd go with something like khat I guess

Khat would be good, any mild stimulant would be.
 
I am replacing it with benzos personally. I almost beat my own father up the other night when drunk, I am fucking over it. It is toxic fucking shit.
 
Ummm...some other Gaba drugs. Those GHB anouglas GVL or whatever, but I think addiction kicks in quicker if say someone had a dose each night,wish I lived in the time when GHB was available in health food stores,lol. Benzo's arent practial, many people don't find them euphoric and would kinda suck at a party if that was all that was available..Really the only thing is the good ole' liver killin' drug used mostly in rape cases while other drugs get banned, and get a shit ton of people killed in drunk driving accidents, and kill heavy drinkers from liver damage and causing cancer.....What about the RC that is suppose to have the same effects of alcohol but without the hangover?? Have no Idea what it's called though. Really drinking is a social thing though for most, like "lets sit down and have some drinks". I cant think of anything to replace that really....Definaley not pot, that's a way to get everyone at the party on the couch.

Yeah weed is somewhat social but not a good way to lower your inhibitions and meet new people imo, but I also have social anxiety so it was never a good way for me to function on a social level.I know drinking is mostly social but drugging can be too, well drugging yourself or with others but not drugging others :p
 
Low-mid dose MXE makes me very pro-social, causes a similar loss of inhibition like alcohol and creates a sort of "camaraderie" not unlike a bunch of friends getting drunk together. The main issue with other drugs is the practicality of using them in the same environments alcohol is acceptable in. Nobody would bat an eye at an entire party or club or whatever getting wasted, but many people would find issue with any drug use aside from softer drugs like weed or MDMA. It's unfortunate, but I don't think a majority of society is ready to accept that sort of thing yet.
 
I don´t think alcohol can be replaced. I see alcohol being banned in the future. I know that´s a bit extreme. But once society really starts giving real thoughts about how damaging is most lives with alcohol, how many accidents it causes, morally degrading lives etc..
When I see what was allowed in the early 1900´s I can see that it´s possible, no feasible though.
 
No I think it will take many generations for that too happen. Right now, it´s part of most of people´s lives. It´s what makes humans social basically, specially in the American society.
 
Among my crowd MDMA is the "people drug" alcohol is just something on the side and not used to excess
 
I can't tell you the last time I went out and was actually social without alcohol. I love booze. Weed is no replacement, in fact if I'm toking, chances are I'ma go home and hole up away from the world, or just sit around.

I saw low dose mxe mentioned; I'd second that over cannabis any day. Lower doses of mxe always feel giddy and social to me, albeit even more dangerous to drive on.

I feel the same among some opiates users I know. Alcohol is not something important once you get most of you need from your daily dosage.
