That's just called "alcohol."
If you turn it around, there's more to the label:
Unless you drink too much and then it makes you feel awful. Either way, you will feel awful the next day.

Rules
-
😇 Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
🏘️ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
-
🧬 Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
-
📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
-
📋 Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
- Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
- When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
📬 Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.

🏴☠️ Internationalization (i18n)
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,

🍿 Moderation
- We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
- When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists
The following artists are banned from the community.
- Jago
- Stonetoss
- GPrime85
It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Web Accessibility
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

MODERATORS
That's me in the corner.
That's me in the spotlight.
That’s me by the bookshelf
Losing my conviction
Trying to sound interesting
And I don’t know if they heard me fart
being neurodivergent is hard.
You can make improvements, it takes a different way of looking at human interaction though.
I'm not there. Somewhere on the spectrum but not that far. I do have a friend that described it as "I try to collect friends like pokemon - look for the rare and shiny people, they're worth your time." He's quite neurodivergent but has a ton of true friends who would give them the shirt off their back.
it's hard to make friends, and harder to keep friendships going, but it's worth it in the end.
Idk if I’ve completely missed the joke here, but seriously this is me with alcohol and weed and even stimulants.
The only affect I get from alcohol is a headache or slight dizziness if I drink a significant amount. THC doesn’t seem to do anything at all, and stimulants typically just make me sleepy or anxious or nothing at all (I’m ADHD)
You're not inhaling the weed correctly. I've seen it so many times.
Technically, yes, you are correct because I don’t inhale at all lol
I have bad lungs, so I’ve only had edibles and shit like that. The first one I tried was 15mg..? I know one of my stoner friends only took a half because a full one was “too much for right now” idk what that means since we basically just sat around and watched movies.
Tbf, that time I think it might have made me slightly more likely to laugh at stupid shit, but it was also the first time I’d been with my old friends in a while, so maybe I was just in a more relaxed mood already. Didn’t really feel any other affects.
All other times have been unremarkable. Also I really am not a fan of being able to faintly smell/taste THC for days afterwards.
Can't explain edibles.
Can i have a link to the actual comic
You forgot the secret ingredient: drugs
(Nah please don’t unless you’re with people you know and trust)
...when you don't like booze.
How would it work if you havent drunken enough
Prefer the juice that turns you into a bottle of juice that turns people into juice that turns people into juice that turns people into juice that turns people into juice…
