Nope! :) Although there was this one time when I was eight and this mean six-year-old girl in my neighborhood was smoking with a friend and wanted me to join in. Needless to say, I ran home and told my mom immediately about what she was doing. And believe it or not, that girl's mom had offered her the cigarrettes! 8O

That's shocking!! (especially considering that the kids probably had to light it themselves)

Yeah, and that little girl was a brat, too! One time she punched me in the mouth and I got a black lip from it. Anyway, her mom came storming down to our house (barefoot, I must add) because apparently her son told her that I had punched her daughter, when it was actually the other way around! Let's just say I learneda some new (colorful) words from her that day. Ugh, what trash. At least now we're in a nice upper class area so we no longer don't have to experience any of that.

I've been offered cigarettes and weed (one of my friends smokes (cigarettes) quite heavily), but I've never accepted. Seen no reason to, really.
That's not to say that it doesn't happen around here. Last year, 13 freshmen and a junior were busted for being completely drunk at a party. (The parents who were hosting the party didn't get in any trouble at all. It was kinda absurd.) And a couple of kids were caught with weed a few weeks ago. It happens.

I decline most of it because, cigarettes are disgusting, and pot bores me.
All though, I do I have to admit, Oxy is amazing, it really makes me more social, and happy.

Ooooooh, nope just being myself.
I loved my hair when it was like that, too.
It's more of a faded seafoam green now.

If someone offered me drugs, I'd ignore them.

O_o Perhaps I'm in the vast, vast minority, but no, I've never been offered drugs, drink or cigarettes. All three disgust me personally, so if offered some I'd likely decline. That and I have some control issues, not to mention I've looked up the neurologic effect of most of the common drugs (including nicotine and alcohol here) and they don't thrill me.

That "Just say no" period doesn't tend to last forever, unfortunately. You never know...I know adults who still pressure others to smoke pot or drink - "oh come on, just one more" or "you don't have to work tomorrow"
:roll:
