I think another problem here lies in the definition of "buzzed." I have a feeling you guys want to get somewhere closer to plastered... Which is something I'd never try to do. So I don't see a problem drinking all the time.

I usually have 4 drinks a day, but I never get drunk. I'm never more than slightly buzzed, because I space them out over several hours. I wouldn't consider that heavy drinking either.
This is me too 4-6 a day spaced out over several hours.

In the past I've coughed up black mucus, I get occasional lung pain, and I can't even get up a flight of stairs without needing to catch my breath. I'm 115 pounds, so I'm not obese or anything. I don't have any damage from alcohol that shows any symptoms whatsoever.

Yeah, people cough up black mucus and get lung pain from being out of shape. 
I go to the gym 4 times a week, and have been doing so for years. I also do an hour of yoga before bed each night.
I do 45 minutes of cardio each time I go to the gym. I get my heart rate to 180-200 bpm for 45 minutes 4 times a week, and have been doing so for years. Any normal person would be in extremely good shape under those conditions.

Damn, that sounds pretty bad.
If I were you I'd switch to a vaporizer or just stop smoking altogether.
I've been smoking for 7ish years and have never had anything at all like that. My lungs can take a pretty good workout, while most of friends that smoke cigarettes are dying.
Liver damage takes longer to show itself, but it's a pretty sure thing with any consistent long term drinking. The certainty of weed causing serious lung damage is more up in the air, if you ask me.

Some of my friends are dying of cancer because i grew up in this litte town dubbed radium city. There was even a documentary about it. WhenI was in highschool, there were all these fenced off radioactive sites where radium was done. They even made a documentary about it called "Radium City" Glad I only spent a few years there.

ok so you blame pot for coughing up black mucus?? You realize you would be the only documented case right? Have you ever read real research on cannabis smoke? Sounds like you have really shitty lungs and probably shouldn't smoke anything at all. I'm not saying smoking pot is benign but for real man? lol you would have to smoke 20 joints a day everyday for quite some time to get physical symptoms from smoking pot at such a young age... basically what I'm saying is quit pot and I bet you still have all your lung ailments. Blame something else, pot already has a bad enough rep without ppl like you spreading misinformation.

Smoke turns black when it condenses. Do your pipes ever accumulate resin? Resin is just smoke that has condensed. The exact same process happens in your lungs. Tar is formed by burning any organic matter in a reaction called pyrolysis. Smoking pot puts tar in your lungs, and there's no way around it.
I love pot. I very much enjoy it, and I'm not looking to give it a bad reputation. But you have to be reasonable. If you don't think it's detrimental to your health to smoke ANYTHING, you're fucking naive.
I would like to get a vaporizor, but I don't have 200$ laying around.

I believe it has been shown that the lungs have the ability to "cough up" (I forget the medical word) marijuana tar much more easily than tobacco tar. And tar in and of itself is not that cause of cancer or anything...
I'm just saying... Coughing up black shit is probably a good thing. At least it's not in your lungs.

Oh, I definitely prefer to cough it up than leave it in my lungs. I was referring to his claim that I was the only person to ever cough up anything black after smoking pot. That's ludicrous.
I usually don't cough it up until about a week of not smoking though.
But once again, we're off topic.

Dudette.
You just admitted she was right too by saying that smoking is bad. I'm pretty sure that was her only point.

owls said: two weeks wouldn't be long enough. give it three months and depending on how long you've been a drinker your tolerance will be almost 0 again
This is true. Last January, 2010, I stopped drinking for about 155 days. I was a pretty heavy drinker before the break from drinking (I'd drink 6 beers before going to the bar just to catch a little buzz) and when I finally started drinking in late May, I drank 3 craft beers at a cookout and I felt a little drunk... three craft beers before the break and I would've been very mildly buzzed.

owls said: i don't believe smoking weed is damaging to your lungs at all. ok maybe a little bit, but i've been a HEAVY smoker for awhile and never had even the slightest hint of lung problems/decreased lung capacity. EXCEPT for a 6 month period where i was smoking meth/cigarettes everyday
seriously though, i think humans are meant to smoke weed and i believe there are natural remedies/herbs and thangs' on this earth we can use to easily mitigate the very minor damage to the lungs weed may cause
alcohol feels good to me for about 20 minutes tops if i smash about 7 shots, after that i just feel stupid and regretful. much better ways to get your enjoyment out of life

hmm I'm getting so many mixed responses some say 2 weeks is plenty others 3 months is barely long enough.. I guess everyone reacts very differently to alcohol and tolerance in general. I guess I'll find out on my own and see what happens. I have a good feeling I'm going to be getting pretty drunk compared to how drunk I was getting.
