actually a true stoner will tell you nothing really compares to weed. In fact cocaine is pretty awesome only when combined with weed. But by itself coke makes you feel too jittery but some people like that feeling (i call them crack heads) but really stoners love that feeling of floating not flying. It all has to due with your personal physiology cuz drugs effect the chemical balance which is why people with add get hyper on bud and mellow on tweek which is where the "self medicating" thing comes in. Anyway the whole point I'm trying to make is that people don't smoke bud cuz they can't afford blow or smack, but rather cuz for them (us) its the best hi of all the ish they (we) have tried.
