What recreational drugs have you used ? (more than once)
The poll is anonymous, and you don't have to participate. You can select all that apply, but do NOT select none if you have done drugs (obviously). All currently being used drugs and past drugs count, but it has to be more than a try = more than once. So, if you've tried say weed once, it doesn't count. Also, for alcohol, I'm sure everyone has tried it more than once, and technically alcohol is also present in over ripe fruit, which surely everyone has eaten more than once, so to make it more useful, you have to have gotten drunk at least once to select alcohol. For the over-the-counter medications, I mean have you used them recreationally = to get high.

Gotta go with caffeine and alcohol. I was also wondering why LSD wasn't there . I don't do anything else. I am surprised I haven't taken up smoking, considering my parents smoke like chimneys. Also not to say that I have smoked marijuana, but my opinion, alcohol and even nicotine is much more dangerous. I think its some kind of conspiracy that marijuana is illegal, after all that would severely cut into big tobacco profits. Of course though smoking marijuana is not good for the lungs, but can't be as bad as cigarettes, because I am sure even those years back, it was just tobacco where as who knows what else is added to them these days. Then again, there are still tobacco shops so you can probably still get unadulterated tobacco.

That is what the government implemented, but there is a lot of resistance from the local (town) authorities (bbc,bbc,bbc).
Bit of a mess......
Just today one of the towns reopened its doors for foreigners (dutch nrc article)
In Amsterdam and The Hague there's no ID checking that I'm aware of.
Use netherlands coffee shop as search terms on the bbc site for a lot more articles.
