I think we have different definitions of tolerance. I enjoy the insight into your Finnish life. I'm US. My grandparents hosted a Finn on foreign exchange while my mom was in university. Even as a child I remember they would exchange letters and talk about her.

I don't want to argue, I just want to say that weed and alcohol is a wonderful combination. It's just too bad people decide to try it while drunk. Recipe for a bad night.

Yeah if one is trying weed for the first time, they really should smoke first and then start drinking. But a lot of people only worked up courage through drinking all night, then take a massive hit from some super strong strain. Not good.

Yeah I mean I agree with you, there is tolerance, obviously, but I'm trying to show the difference in tolerance in relation to cannabis. The scale is just so wildly different that in terms of the type of tolerance you can build with cannabis, that type of tolerance does not exist for alcohol. Is what I was saying.

I think I finally understand, this takes some time for me sometimes. I got lit up by what seems like you had no understanding of alcohol tolerance by saying it's all dose vs body weight. Since alcohol tolerance was a big part of my life I weighed in as expert counsel.

I'm quite skilled at evading mandatory drug tests if you'd like any tips should you need work here.
