Do you comsume any tobacco products (e.g. "smoking") or alcoholic beverages? Why or why not?

Inspired by another question on this community about "the first time you drank alcohol", so I was just feeling like I'm the odd one out here.
I personally have never smoked (neither tobacco nor weed), never drank any alcohol. (Parents also don't do smoking, or drinking, or gambling so I kinda got lucky with the environment I grew up in, I guess...) Is that unusual? Gen Z btw.
Alcohol yes. Less the older I get.
I've got an appreciation for bourbon and wine, so tasting those is pretty enjoyable. I also like a cold beer every now and then if I'm running the grill and it's particularly hot, just not IPAs: I'm not that basic.
Tobacco no. I have tried it, but both my parents are smokers and I don't like the smell.
I'm a millennial.

No. Paying money to ingest poison is extremely unappealing
No sulphites from preserved meats either?

Also, you annoy people around you and eventually poison them too
Not worth it.

No. Never smoked. Alcohol tried pretty hard to get me, so I quit. Wasn’t fun anymore. Never really gambled other than pocket change, whatever I had on me was used and when it was gone it was gone. Rarely more than $5.

I used to like moking, tobacco and weed in a bong, would make my brain stop buzzing around, extremely calming, honestly it was just a way to self medicate not knowing I prob have adhd/ocd, I'm still super "lazy" about seeing a doctor and getting medicated, just swapped to vaping weed and nicotine. It doesn't work as well, can honestly be overstimulating compared to how calming it used to be, ocassionally works

Never liked smoking anything including weed though I do enjoy it as an edible on rare occassions (maybe twice a year max). I also drink beer on occassion (0-2 a month). Wine and liquor jusf upset my stomach too much.

Elder millennial. I think we were the last gen where cigarettes, booze, and drugs were seen as "cool". Younger people seemed to have figured it out early how much of a fucking waste of time and money all three are.

Both
I take what small pleasures I can from this life.
Based on the way the world is going, I will probably be shot way before lung cancer ever develops.

At least in the US, pesticide use is linked to cancer.

I agree with you on the nicotine and alcohol, but you will have to pry my pot from my cold dead hands.

I use vapes because it's how I quit smoking and there's still something comforting/de-stressing about the ritual. I use pretty strong juice but I don't get nic fits if I go a while without it like I did when I smoked, which leads me to believe nicotine isn't the only addictive thing the latter.
I drink alcohol because caffeinated programmer needs to stop going brrr at some point, not the healthiest life decision but who the hell cares it's not like I'm ever going to have enough money to retire

I drink a couple times a year. I generally get in the mood for it a handful of times a year, but beyond that I just have no desire.

Who is drinking because they think it makes them look cool? Drinking at home isn't to impress others.

I'd agree with the "cool" factor for drugs and booze, and maybe it's regional or class-based, but cigarettes always seemed trashy when I was growing up

I’m addicted to a vape. Not the disposable ones, thank fuck.
I cut out drinking and weed because I can’t not use them when they’re available… weed is awesome, drinking sucks ass but is alluring despite its awful effects.
