Crack + Smack

[Lex Diamonds]

I'm sure most of the people on these forums (being Beastie Boys fans) have tried skunk, coke, pills at some point in their lifetime, but has anybody here ever tried rocks or heroin? I've never heard from somebody who has done these two most addictive of drugs what it actually feels like. I mean, it must be pretty fuckin good to make you THAT addicted, right?

Anyone?

[Parkey]

Pete Doherty is the reason I'd never try it. The little smack oik!

[ms.peachy]

I don't think it's the 'feeling good' that gets you addicted, it's the feeling completely shit when you're not up on it that is the hallmark of addiction.

[Loppfessor]

I never have. I remember in high school one of my home girls came in on Monday morning and was like "Yeah so I smoked some crack this weekend..." Cus for some reason she couldn't get a hold of any pot. Long story short I told her if she ever did it again I was going to beat the shit out of her....

[Calimero jr.]

When I see the heroin-addicted zombis hanging in the streets here, trying that shit is the last things that comes to my mind.... :rolleyes:
As for crack it seems that it's even worse. You could tell me they're better than anything else (doesn't someone in "Train Spotting" says it's better than sex??) I still wouldn't touch it.

[Jayrock5054]

Crack is cheap...crack is wack...I done made too much money to every smoke crack you hear me

I drew the line at acid. Done weed, speed, acid, possibly some others i can't remember / wasn't aware of, but never done ecstasy, coke, herion or anything like that. got close to trying ecstasy, but decided not to cause I know what I'm like, I'd be downing those things like peas on a plate (i'm sure there's gotta be a better analogy for that, i hate peas)

[Tzar]

wrong Padster, i haven't tried those drugs and i don't intend too.

the worst i've done is weed, didn't like it, and that's where it stays.

people get into those drugs to look cool and fit it, then they get fucked on and become addicted. (n)

[tracky]

First time I tried weed was alone, in my bedroom. I was just curious. I'd heard all this stuff about it, so when a kid at school had some bags to sell, I thought, here's my chance! Freaked me out a bit, but I enjoyed it. The second time I did it was with a mate. I put bluetack on my fingers and said I was spiderman. We laughed. I think it was all downhill from there. Havn't had a cone in 2 days now. Getting ansy.

[Chicka B]

I've never done any drugs and I never EVER will. I saw my aunt on every drug possible, and she's done it sense she was 12. I've seen her on heroin too, and she looks fucked up and she breaks out and shit so I wouldn't try it. So really, there ain't no point in getting addicted to it. ;) Ok I have tried weed before, but that don't count.

[Tzar]

everyone will have tried weed at least once in their life.
everyone will have got drunk at least once in their life.

stick to the legal shit = alcohol. (y)

[beastieangel01]

i haven't tried those drugs and i don't intend too.


same. I have plenty of relatives that serve as examples in regards to drugs. I rather not get at least 6 of my own kids taken away from me due to my drug habit. I know that not everyone goes down a road where it gets all that bad, but in my family, it tends to work that way. So I just stay away from it.

Also, "I don't use drugs, my dreams are frightening enough."

[tracky]

just cause alchohol is legal doesn't make it good

weed's only illegal because of the cotton industry :mad: if you buy into all that. i dunno, i've seen documentaries that suggest that. but then i dunno what to believe these days...

[tracky]

a loser is subjective

[adam_f]

HELL TO THE NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lex Diamonds]

I find that people who have never tried drugs can't understand them. No offence to all youze who are like "staying clean for life" or anything but drugs themselves really aren't a bad thing, you realise that after you've tried a few of them. It's just some people don't suit drug-taking or it can help their bad side to come out. Bottom line: drugs don't make you a loser, but if you're already a loser then they definitely make it worse.

Anyway, so no one these boards has done rocks or brown? That sucks. I guessed that about 50% of the people on here smoke crack.

[bigblu89]

People that smoke crack would've sold their computer for some rocks by now, and have no way of getting here.

[Rock]

I know a handful of people who have tried each and they are the same as they were before they tried it.

I know a handful of people who have done each on a regular basis and they are either dead or disappeared.

I'm not interested in crack, and i'm not allowed to try heroin.

[Lex Diamonds]

Pete Doherty is the reason I'd never try it. The little smack oik!
Yeah but he's rich, a rock star, and married to a super model.

What about Shannon Doherty...she's pretty fucked up too.

[Rock]

word! her teeth are soooo british.

Word.

So I guess I'll be the only one to admit it. I did smoke crack once. out of a light blub no less. Ghetto. and even though I did it once, that makes me a crack smoker. :( Anyway, there was nothing memorable about it and it really didn't do much for me except make me feel shitty. that's why I never did it again.

I have no interest in heroin. My uncle spent a majority of his adult life in jail becasue of it and has major health problems as an added sideeffect. 2 months ago my 19 yr old nephew OD'd on the stuff and I'm still in shock cause I didn't know he was using. The only way you are eve going to see me doing heroin is if I have a terminal disease and I want to off myself quickly.

[Lex Diamonds]

^ See, that's what I wanted. An interesting personal story of hard drug use.

You should all take a leaf out of cookiepuss's book. (y)

[Parkey]

I'll readily admit to having tried everything else; from poppers to coke, but don't think I'd try cr/sm/ack because I've seen a mate proper fucked up on it. He's back in the chokey at the moment.

[paul jones]

aaaaaahhaha! (y)

[Lex Diamonds]

Your self-esteem must be frickin' low if you're taking drugs.
How many drugs have you tried?

[CrankItUp!]

I think its a goddamn shame that so many musicians do. (n)

[Lex Diamonds]

I used to pop down twenty of those Flintstone Vitamins in 10 minutes. I did this three times every day. I think I got my drugs credential from that.
I only asked because the fact you associate drug use with low self esteem suggests that you know very little about the effects of drugs. They do not make you happy, they simply enhance whatever feeling you have whilst taking them. So if you had low self esteem and you did drugs, it would just make it worse.

When most normal people do drugs, it is because they are happy and want to have a good time. (y)

[TurdBerglar]

i don't trust people that are drunk/high

[Lex Diamonds]

i don't trust people that are drunk/high

[CrankItUp!]

not even hot chicks ?

[Lex Diamonds]

not even hot chicks ?
There's no need for trust when you're fuckin. (y)

[Lex Diamonds]

No, because drugs are essentially a form of escapism.
Not essentially. Only in extreme cases eg. for homeless or clinically depressed people. And that's only because they are better than the real world.

[Lex Diamonds]

All I'm saying is: don't judge.

[CrankItUp!]

The Ramones - Sniff Some Glue

[cookiepuss]

All I'm saying is: don't judge.

exactly. Let's not delude ourselves, but instead recognize that that a good majority of our most cherished classic literary works, some of our most treasured movies,paintings and of course music, were all conceived by people who were on drugs. and some of them were/are downright addicts.

if you want to explore what I'm talking about further there is a book called "writing on drugs" by Sadie Frost, who "explores the history of drugs and drug use through the work of some of our most revered and infamous writers." it's an excellent read. (y)

[tracky]

this coming from the guy with a PIL avatar...


you're the moron for being judgemental of something you know NOTHING about

[Tzar]

It's a pretty good judgment that taking drugs is moronic.

i agree.
c'mon, as if anyone would think to themselves "shit, weed and booze is boring, i know! let's try crack! and snort some shit! yes that will be swell!"

fuck off...

people only do these drugs cause other people pressure them to; "cmon take a pill or two, it's better than booze!!"

padster, go ahead mang, do that shit. i just dunno how you're going to impress chick, or your mates for that matter, by saying "yeah man, i've done every drug on earth, i'm a right hard cunt".

[tracky]

So you're talking about hard drugs here tzar, weed doesn't count?

[Tzar]

So you're talking about hard drugs here tzar, weed doesn't count?
huh? quote me about this cause i don't understand what you mean.
weed isn't that hard. i don't consider it hard. i consider hard drugs to be pills, snort-able stuff and shooting up.

[tracky]

its just cause you said something about getting bored with booze and weed made me think maybe you were excluding it

ps. alcohol's a drug too

[Tzar]

its just cause you said something about getting bored with booze and weed made me think maybe you were excluding it

i know it is.
nah well, weed is just as common as alcohol so... to me; it's not hard and "rare".

[tracky]

roger that

that's what i thought you meant

i was just saying alcohol's a drug for the rest of the people who are all anti-drug yet probably go out on the weekend and get sloshed. They havn't necessarily posted here, just putting it out there

[CrankItUp!]

40ozmaltliquor.com will show you all there is to know. :cool:

[cookiepuss]

people only do these drugs cause other people pressure them to; "cmon take a pill or two, it's better than booze!!"


peer pressure? that's your explanation of epidemic drug use? Come on man, I think you can give people a little more credit than that. :rolleyes:

[BionicEye]

I never did any of those things to impress a chick. I'd read this book about drugs from my school library in the 6th and I'd wanted to do them ever since. I was always interested in the psychadelic aspects, sort of like dreaming while you're awake. I was interested in listening to music and hearing it in different ways. That kind of thing. The first time I smoked pot, me and my friend had set it up with food and great music played on his bose speakers which was insane. Afterwards he got on his drum set and I picked up the guitar and we jammed out for like an hour. I'm not a defender of using drugs, but I do agree with people who say that you don't get it if you haven't tried it.

[tracky]

Yeah I was exactly the same Bionic. I was just really curious, you hear all this stuff and they say it's bad for you, but it actually sounds really good!

[BionicEye]

i had read a scientific book that described the effects and what you would feel and it sounded good to me. and they all were pretty good in different ways, however i recognize the traps in drugs. I would never encourage anyone to try them, but i'm glad i did.


EDIT: I would encourage people not to try them - i know myself and knew i would be able to just try them. That was a big risk because everyone thinks they're stronger than drugs - i think i was just lucky.

[Tzar]

peer pressure? that's your explanation of epidemic drug use? Come on man, I think you can give people a little more credit than that. :rolleyes:
well did you wake up one day and think to yourself "shit, i wanna snort some coke"?

[TAL]

There's no need for trust when you're fuckin. (y)
Only some thrust.

[scotty]

Having used quite a few drugs I don't condone the use of them, but if you going to try them its best to know something about them.

It's probably also best not to make any value judgments about the people who use drugs and their reasons for doing so if you don't know what you're talking about.

[Elusive]

you know how dog food tastes???
just like it smells...










































































delicious....

[Lex Diamonds]

padster, go ahead mang, do that shit. i just dunno how you're going to impress chick, or your mates for that matter, by saying "yeah man, i've done every drug on earth, i'm a right hard cunt".
It aint a matter of impressing people dude. In my circle of friends, drugs aint no thang. We have skunk pretty much every day and I have friends who do the occasional line of charlie or drop an X, but it aint a big deal. Drugs are just something we do. Shit, there isn't much else to do around where I live so it just makes life more interesting.

To say drug use in general is moronic is, in itself, moronic. I bet more than 50% of the music you listen to was written whilst on drugs. (y)

i find that pathetic.
sorry dude.

[Lex Diamonds]

Don't dismiss it till you've lived it man. I guess me and you come from different backgrounds. That's a shame, but don't call it pathetic.

[tracky]

Different strokes for different folks

[Tzar]

Don't dismiss it till you've lived it man.
see.. i don't wanna live it; i don't wanna smoke gunja everyday because there's nothing else to do in my city.

[Lex Diamonds]

That's fair enough. I'm not trying to encourage anybody to take drugs, that would just be evil. I'm just trying to make the point that you cannot say drugs are bad, and be taken seriously, until you've tried them. I'm not trying to say you should become a crackhead or anything, I'm just saying drugs in general, as a whole, are not a bad thing. Recognise.

[Tzar]

agree to disagree, playah? (y)
whatever floats your boat, mang.

i just hope you don't get hooked on some seriously shit.

[tracky]

Good, tzar (y) for not wanting to smoke weed all day. I'm not particularly proud of my drug use. It's kinda like someone who binges on chocolate


It's been 3 days now. I've gone from an 1/2 oz of crystal coated buds each week to ZERO

The only side effect so far is I'm seeing a shitload more of these (http://www.beastieboys.com/bbs/images/statusicon_2the5/thread_dot_hot_new.gif) because of the insomnia i think

[Lex Diamonds]

Yep, it's all good mate. And don't worry, I've never tried pills or coke yet and I definitely will never touch rocks or brown. So I aint gonna become no addict. It's all about the hallucinogens for me. (y)

Peace, bra. :)

[Calimero jr.]

None of my friends nor I had ever any problem with pot/weed, but I can't say that about coke. I tried it twice and that's it, most of my friends became addict to coke more or less seriously, and that really sucks, fucked up their lives quite bad for a while and it took them time to recover. Started out as a line from time to time, then at least once a month, then every weekend and finally daily. I know very few people who take C just from time to time without starting to get some on a regular basis.
I have tried different drugs and liked most of them (hated ecstasy), but I consider myself quite lucky that I just became addict to pot/weed for a few years and then stopped smoking nearly completely. At that time I thought that being high for the most part of my day was making my life funnier and more exciting, now I feel better being clean during the day and have my weekend booze (ok, quite frequent :D ) or rare joint when I feel I want to be stone (rare).

[cookiepuss]

well did you wake up one day and think to yourself "shit, i wanna snort some coke"?

actually yeah. nobody pushed me into it. I was in college and I wanted to experiment with something new. So I found some and I tried it. and I didn't keep doing it either, even though some of my friends continued to use (and no I never encouraged them to use in the first place). so there you go.

[Kenny Blewblood]

I heard from a close friend who was messed up on H for a couple of years that it "feels like being hugged by Jesus Christ". He was going through a lot of personal problems (his girlfriend died in a car accident) and was looking to numb himself. For people who have problems that they feel are insurmountable, it lets them not care.
