Money here is pretty much symbolic as is (as opposed to real metal based), so why not?
Smoking a cigarette just for the hell of it now and then?

Smoking a cigarette just for the hell of it now and then?
Aye, looks cool. I've smoked maybe thirty cigarettes in my life haha, all of the anti smoking lectures we had ministered to us in elementary school really worked on me.
Drinking (alcohol) alone?
Yes. I drink very very little because of a problem I have with balance. But when I do drink, it's at home, to be safer. And since my wife doesn't drink at all, that means it's just me (usually listening to music with her). In the immortal words of Rogers and Hammerstein: drink on, drink on with love in your heart and you'll never drink alone. :)
Lowering the voting age to 16?
Raising it to 21?
Young people don't vote anyway and nearly everybody votes tribally or is a single issue voter, so who cares? Anyone who can't vote shouldn't pay any taxes though. Nay, keep it where it is, but I wouldn't be scandalized if it were raised or lowered. It was lowered I believe for the referendum on Scotland? I could be mistaken, but that I do agree with.
Homeschool?
Big yes. Public education is going Hindenburg, and every one's in a happy or defensive denial about it.
Foreign language starting in third grade?
Nay, start it in preschool. Actually a woman who runs a home daycare in town just straight up speaks French to all of her kids, whether they like it or not, with the result that uh... they all learn French.
I would want to see incredibly high standards for advancing through public schools, largely private education or homeschool; the current state of public education is an utter joke. And we absolutely need to do away with any nonsense about "no child left behind" and provide opportunities and incentives for merit.
Corporal punishment administered to (your own) children? Answer for yourself and for legality.
No for both considerations, for the same reason NCLB is bad.
Is veganism more ethical?
Yes I think it is.
Would you rather compete for something desireable or take an assured something which is somewhat banal?
In banality is the sublime.
Wealth redistribution yea or nay?
Ahaha, by the government? Nay.
Green smoothies?
what else, market forces? :PQuote:

Black metal, yea or nay.
That's right pal, market forces.
Aye for Burzum and Peste Noire, nay in general for being a big clown affair with stupid makeup.
The Circus?
id say aye except for the animal acts...elephants, tigers, etc belong in the wild, not in the circus.
and an extra aye for the "market forces" while I am here.
consider you are in a committed relationship---"checking out the menus even though you are on a diet?"
If you mean just looking, sure, as long as you are polite about it (for example, not ogling someone's cleavage) and if you don't hurt your partners feelings. But if you mean making other hypothetical plans in case what you have doesn't work out: never in a marriage; otherwise, all's fair in love and war.
Clowns?
Nope. Not scary just... dumb.
High fashion?
