Yea I think you’re underestimating the euphoric effects of alcohol.

With pot, there are various types of highs that can be produced. With alcohol, there's just one.

Plus, there are people out there who don't experience euphoria from alcohol, it instead throws them into a depressive spiral.

You can definitely produce different highs with alcohol, getting drunk from vodka is different to wine is different to beer. In the end one is drunk, yes, but feeling is still quite distinct. So pretty much the same as with pot, where you can have vastly different highs but in the end are just that: high

Not my experience at all. Give weed to 10 different people, and they'll experience 12 different reactions to it. With alcohol, it's more or less roughly the same for everyone.
