Do people still smoke crack?

[Goosemaster]

Drugs, in general, entice the individual with promises of pleasure that is otherwise unattainable.

ONLY examples:


Basically, the Janitor or whatever, has a longing, perhaps, for an end to fiscal and personal responsibiltiy, in the form of wealth. He might find that drugs offer him a relief from his responsibilities

The Millionaire, however, has perhaps reached the limits of what society has to offer, and longs for something else. He might find that drugs offer him a relief from monotony.

Isn't that a looser "Whittney Houston" type thingy for the get high crowd??

 

[MAME]

Yeah, I read a book from the late 90's in New York and it was uber popular among the homeless

bwahahaha LSD went out like years ago.

Coke (crack/cocaine) is making a bit of a comeback though. Not smoking it; doing lines. E! is getting a bit old too.

i hate that channel

I know that at some of the stores i work for, they sell these glass tubes and brillo pads (at GAS stations??) that are used to smoke crack, and I do inventory and they sell at the same pace as Snickers. (they get delivered by the same people, and we always get equal delivered of each) so yeah. All the places I do work for are in Downtown LA

uhhh... dude LSD is on the downfall; with the government cracking down LSD is getting harder and harder to come by. You're looking at 10 years per HIT if you get caught with it now. I have friends that used to love doing it all the time, now they just miss the days when they could get it.

New drug = ectasy, and I'm pretty sure that E's even going downhill now that people know what it does to your brain. It looks like the oldschool pot and coke are back in style right now.

And when was crack EVER popular? I've only heard of it ever in the hands of the dregs of society.

Seems to be accurate.

ecstasy isnt "in" anymore, but "some people" still do it... heh. "some people" cant sleep on ecstasy after a long night of raving either, so they wait on the computer for their friends to check in when they get home safely. *sigh*

my ex-gf started doin coke. :|

I've done E a half dozen times, it was fun and I can't say it damaged me in any particular way. As with anything, moderation is key, and abusing any drug may result in lifelong repercussions.

Party and have fun, but do so wisely!

Moderation is key? You are dumb. People have had permanent damage from a one time use of E.

 

I'd say all the drugs mentioned are still very prevalent in their respective scenes.

 

[Ameesh]

this thread is the funny!

 

[Flyermax2k3]

I don't smoke it but I sell it, does that count?

ummmm, yes. Not even debatable. You believe whatever you want, I'm not going to waste my time arguing about the merits of E

 

[Ns1]

LSD is hard as hell to come by now (sadly)

shrooms however, are quite hot


and moderation is definately key, true for anything you do

A little of topic.But all these statements like "Brain cells don't grow back" are, well wrong.Recent advances in Neurobiology show that neural cells have some ability to regenerate.

E is BAD for you. Other drugs are too, but this one is one of the worst out there physically (and permanently).

I'm sure if you abuse it, it's going to be detrimental both physically and mentally obviously, but doing it once or twice a year? Direct me to studies that show that.

One time use of MDMA or a pill called ecstasy? What was the dosage? References?

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

Why yes, I'm on crack right now!

 

[beer]

My girlfriend senior year is HS had this to say about this exact subject two years ago (when I was with her):

"Coke is posh, crack is just ghetto. That explains it all."

 

[AAjax]

Sure, dont you?

 

[DWW]

No one does crack in my area and they didn't at least in the past 10 years.

Weed, shrooms and coke have ruled the scene around here.

I have a question for the knowledgable: what are, if any, the effects of mushrooms and cocaine on the human brain and long term problems?

effects can range from mild psychosis (paranoia) to death.

 

[rubix]

drugs should be free and available in vending machines throughout schools and work places. no one is forcing anyone to take them. that would make a good reality show.

people who harm themself and act like they have no problem and think they are in fact better, or think they have figured everything out and that the system is against them are funny. no amount of studies or research or more importantly observing history where the same thing occurs over and over will ever convince some. but taping their suffering and sometimes deaths can be great fun for all.

Long term use of mushroom use causes liver damage, however the human stomach isn't capable of holding enough to OD on.
