When it comes down to it, people who say that line are often doing it to excuse doing something they know they shouldn't.
Now, when it comes to drugs, I say do whatever you want, but honestly, I avoid people who do drugs completely. I even avoid people who drink large amounts of alcohol and I dislike socialising with smokers. Why? Because someone under the influence of a drug is unpredictable, they're usually less pleasant to be around and often it can become violent or tiresome. I see little value is sitting with a stoned guy who's laughing at the funny pattern on the ceiling, I find it pathetic. Likewise I don't want to be with someone who'd drunk either, I don't care about your pub-philosophy that only makes sense when you're pissed and I don't want to stagger around the street singing.
In the long run, and this is coming from someone who's high as a fĂșcking kite as I'm saying this due to the pain meds I take... drugs are a barrier to social activities, if you want to do drugs, do them in moderation and away from your friends, because someone on drugs isn't fun to be around. I know this is true, my moods change rapidly because of my meds, and my friends are good enough to put up with it, but I guarantee they'd rather I didn't need to take them.
what if u dont really get high anymore? its not like many ppl will be sitting around laughing at the ceiling unless there on shrooms or acid lol
