self-control freak
which means it's not just that I don't, it's also that I can't do drugs. I deliberately have never attempted anything stronger than a joint (I was sick and paranoid) as I'd know I'd have a bad time. And I don't really drink, so this question's a bit pointless for me. However, I am living proof a good time can be had without these things, so I'm not bitter.

However, it's worth telling this story.

A friend of mine was on pills for stomach pain, which increased the effect of alcohol x3. So he combined a series of shnapps shots with a discrete pill of some description and what we ended up with was a man on the train to bristol telling the female ticket inspector she looked like a lobster.
He then went on to start a fight in a pre-club pub with a man who was clearly dodgy who then went on to produce a gun. Another friend talked him down from using it and bought him a pint.
He then picked a fight with the bouncer of the pub on the way out. Who then walked across the road to the club we were about to go into, and told the club's bouncer not to let him in.
By this point I was happy to see the back of said mate, and would happily have left him to whatever Bristol had to offer him, preferably along the same lines he'd found so far. However, my other friends were feeling a bit more generous and reluctantly got a taxi with him, whilst I went into the club, drank lemonade all night and kept getting asked what I was on.
My friends, however, were stuck trying to get my mate to come down off whatever cloud he'd taken up residence on, and trying to gtet him to behave sensibly and stop shouting about "truth".
