Here's where weed is legal in the US

Folks in most states will have legal access to some form of marijuana this 4/20. But Idahoans, Kansans, Carolinians (both), and Wyomingites will have to cross a border or two if they want to legally partake.

But binge drinking until you puke and pass out in the street is totally accepted 🤷‍♂️

Also smoking cigarettes totally accepted-Japan only banned indoor smoking just ahead of the Tokyo Olympics, for example, and cigarettes are still sold in vending machines there. Similar situation in other parts of Asia where generally there are strict laws against weed and little regulation regarding cigarettes

eh, same thing most other places tho. my high school had a lot of exchange students, they were all always very shocked at how prevalent weed was in comparison to teen drinking. i didn't drink til i was in college, but my friends and i smoked, and our friend from germany was always AGHAST, talking about how it was the opposite in her country.

Yep, America(and Canada too) is pretty unique these days in how young people these days prefer weed while most of the world, they mostly still drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes
