So me and my roommapte are in a debate. He claims if he drinks all day he is more productive then if smokes weed. Im the complete opposite, if I'm drinking I'm not getting shit done. How about u guys? More motivated drunk or high?
 
im motivated while drunk at night maybe, but thats only when i worked late and i worked in a restaurant. nowadays weed is definetly more motivational. i can get stoned all day and work just fine but if i drink all day i wont make it till dinner time.

so, my vote is weed.
 
For me, neither weed nor alcohol are motivating. But if I had to choose one, I suppose I'd choose alcohol.

Weed just makes my thoughts too weird to get anything truly "productive" done, like pay attention in class for instance.
 
When I get drunk I get stupid. When I was going to detail my truck which took about 3 hours, I would get good and stoned before and I would focus and be a lot more detailed. So, I give my vote to the ganj. It all depends on the person though, really.
 
I get extremely productive from weed half the time. For example this morning I woke up, smoked a pinner, and did everything on my to-do list that i've been putting off for weeks now. As long as it's not several bong hits that have me on my ass weed helps me organize my thoughts better which in turn helps me stay organized.

EDIT: im clean so I don't have to contemplate that

Definitely thinks it depends of the person:D

BUT

I would rather get a little faded and take care of chores, work (when i worked in foods, restaurant industry). It also depends on HOW MUCH cannabis I intake.8o
Drinking is great for the party
If I smoke AFTER I am drunk, it's an experience of its own.
 
Points of view differ from person to person. And "productivity" is reflecting on what you would usually get done in a sober state of mind if I understand you properly.

I can be productive and drink, but careless.

I can be productive and stoned but make mistakes.

Perhaps try some coffee ONLY and see how productive you are then. You may not think you are quite as productive whilst drinking and/or smoking weed then....
 
I would definitely say I have more energy to get things done and face the day when I am drinking, smoking bud really doesn't give me much motivation. I find the right level of alcohol does give kind of an up buzz and is also more of a mood lift than cannabis is. Don't get me wrong I love smoking weed but I do tend to keep it to evenings/nights, that's not to say I make a habit of drinking through the day but if I had to choose one or the other its definitely drinking. One major disadvantage of drinking through the day though is you can't really drive anywhere without risking your licence, especially since I am still on my P's and have to blow .00 or I lose it.
 
^ lol yes I have been on my P's for 10 years because of repeated offending of that law 8)

I am silly though, please learn from my mistakes.
 
personally, i cant function very well at all while drinking. however as someone metioned already, give me a pinner and im good to go and conquer the world. used to be a dab or 2 and id go to work and clean everything, but those days are long gone a dab will put me on my ass now lol
 
Yeah I smoke weed everyday, on good days all day.
Alcohol, is more like liquid analgesia/sleep medicine. Weed is just like a jazzed up cigarettee that calms you down and helps me personally focus on tasks at hand(even though i may look retarted stoned on the job lol).

Mary jane will always be my main thang, through thick and thin.
 
Marijuana's the more productive of the two for me, but if I'm being completely honest neither are motivational or truly good for my own productivity. Regarding drug use, I'm most productive when I'm viewing the task(s) before me as an obstacle between me and my stash.
 
Neither. Motivated is honestly the very last word I would use to describe myself while under the influence from marijuana or ethanol, which honestly I don't indulge in either anymore.
 
When I drink I drink to get drunk, and I make sure I got everything for that day done because im not a functional drunk I do some stupid stuff. Marijuana on the other hand is very motivational unless you come around a strain that makes you couch locked, or you just get way to high lol =D. My vote is for marijuana<3 I personally hate alcohol its so bad for you worse than most drugs.
There are functional drunks in this world lol their out there, but I bet it took a long time to get like that!!
 
Alcohol is very toxic to my body. I can feel its affect on my liver and brain for days after having just a few drinks. I think it's a really disgusting thing for me, something in which even once is too much. Being drunk itself, well, I'm a lot dumber, extrovertive, I spend money, do drugs I wasn't planning on doing, and I take risks. I find it addictive in the sense that a lot of the time it sweeps me away and I end up having more to drink than I originally intended. The only reason I ever drink is due to its common availability and to peer pressure, it is the #1 source of self abuse in my life and I wish it wasn't around so much. I also think that most people drink because they are brainwashed by the media, govenment etc. higher powers to flock like sheep to the liquor store, I don't think that many people actually enjoy getting drunk. But then again, I very rarely partake in it apart from the odd bender when I'm fed up with being alive. I am an alcohol hater, and I can't understand how anybody in their right mind would ever consume this stuff daily - seems like a great way to ruin your body and mind to me. It's just so incredibly toxic, the most toxic thing of all.

Weed helps point out behaviour to me which is toxic to my body through heightening my self awareness and making me more paranoid about things potentially harmful. It has led me to a highly physically active lifestyle, and also to develop excellent culinary skills for making creative, delicious, and healthy meals in the absence of fast food, alcohol, or much dining. I care a lot about my body when I'm stoned, and smoking more weed when I'm high never feels like such a bad thing for me. It also stimulates me to study science, mathematics, language, literature, etc. and push the limits of my productivity - at times at least, sometimes I feel burnt out on it but that's just unstable me. This happens anyway, I'm sure as hell not superman without the stuff. With weed I'm addicted though, and run into serious instabilities when I don't smoke that can really get me into trouble in life, but these are for the most part manageable. It can also get me into trouble because of how it is considered illegal. For the most part, my problems with weed are due to other people having a problem with it, not me. Any problems that do surround my use of it are caused by my deep hatred of some aspects of life; after all, it's just a cute little flower with potentially spiritually enlightening effects, while I am an ego-devil member of a zombie plague that is Planet Earth's dirty disease, otherwise known as a human being.

Weed is an epic mood lift. Brewing up a fat bong rip of dank kush+hash, that's going to make me grin uncontrollably and giggle about life for a few hours... and then I am going to be prone to snapping your head off when I'm sober again, but it's nothing anywhere even close to as miserable as a godawful fucking hangover, and besides, I rarely feel the need to come down because nobody can tell whether I am sober or high unless I reek of course but I have a vaporizer too, I can do everything baked just fine.

p.s. Every time I see your username I think of Randy from South Park bouncing down the street singing Buffalo Soldier while smoking a joint. Thanks for that. :D

I'm never productive when drunk, but for weed it depends on the strain. Sometimes I get a nice energetic productive buzz, one that allows me to organise my mind and kind of 'zone out' to whatever task I'm doing, and before I know it I've finished. When I'm drunk I really don't care to do anything remotely productive, and even if I tried I would probably do a terrible job.
