I always had a moral rule about drinking and smoking weed. Fine, do whatever you like. Just don't fucking get me involved. I've only ever had 3 alcoholic beverages in my entire life and I've firmly decided that it's not for me. Smoking, never done that, I've been around smokers both weed and cigarette to say I want none of it.
What does this even mean? Are they pinning you down and force feeding you booze through a funnel?
Don't drink or smoke if you don't want to. I guarantee that nobody cares what you do.
Just going out on a limb here... but I presume they're talking about more dogged kinds of social customs? e.g. friends, family, and depending where you live, your bosses and coworkers (Japan in the 00s I think?), can carry it as a heavy social expectation while being fine people to know otherwise.
I'm not sure it's so black and white.
They just needed to tell everyone that they've only had 3 alcoholic beverages in their entire life, because we'll all be super impressed rather than just sad for them.
