Title: DO YOU DRINK/SMOKE/OTHER DRUGS??
Post by: JMickle on September 09, 2009, 07:43:49 pm
I've noticed quite a few people mention that they don't drink or smoke or anything so I think its time for a DRUGS CONSENSUS!

Tick all the drugs you do or if you dont do any then tick the last one.

BUT WHY? How have you managed to avoid smoking? don't you see the fun in drink? haven't you given in to peer pressure and taken cocaine?
TELL ME

I'm boring. I used to drink quite a lot when I first turned legal but then I saw it was kind of a worthless exercise and would have an existential crisis every time I got drunk. I don't feel I'm missing out on anything living the sXe lifestyle.

I tried weed but i evidentally got it wrong cos it did bot all for me. Apparently i was just holding it in my mouth, but it was the first time i've ever smoked, so can't be helped i suppose.

I drink though. It kind of annoys me, but i do enjoy it. I hate the get drunk all the time MUST GET DRUNK attitude, and drunk people are just the worst, but i do like to get properly wrecked now and then. Once a week tops.

It's funny that you can kind of tell already who the "clean" ones are just through posting style.  

I keep it legal with beer and smokes nowadays, but I'm no stranger to controlled substances.

Me too, but I'm on the other side of the counter.

And yeah, I think that there's a correlation between your spelling/grammar/punctuation and your stance on substance use/abuse. I guess as a "clean" one, we're just more uptight and our mantra is neatness and control, hence our posting style reflects that. Compare that to being more laid back and having a laissez-faire, do whatever you want, attitude. It's an interesting biproduct of personality I think.

I smoke like a fucking chimney.. smoking by the cartons now.

The reason why my cheques go away so fast is when I don't have to work I drink. lots. I'm a fairly big guy and have the irish and native in me, and I'm a self proclaimed beer drinking machine.

I used to be a hardcore stoner, but eventually go sick of that shit and have it on occasion.

Um, other drugs I mainly have tried a few times but E I had a problem with last year but am doing good now. Coke I've never ever bought but have done when it was offered, stay away from that shit.

I am 18 years old. What I have learned is doing this shit don't make you cool or score more chicks.

smoking is too unhealthy to be worth it. i drink very rarely; i will try different beers/wines but i don't really get DRUNK. alcoholic drinks are just empty calories, so.
i regularly do drugs i guess, but they're things other than what's in the options. i think you should have included more drugs on the list besides hard drugs (and weed). why not include stuff like nitrous oxide, prescription drugs, DXM, etc...? heck even caffeine. i know some people who have like 7 coffees a day and they get totally hyped up; they're pretty addicted to caffeine. it's everyone's favorite legal stimulant! hooray~

sorry but if you're addicted to caffeine (especially 7 coffees a day) you don't get hyped up at ALL.  you just get really tired and sick if you don't have it, so you just have to have ti to feel normal

Post by: Killer Wolf on September 09, 2009, 11:14:52 pm
I never drank all the time, but when I did, I was thorough. I figure I started young, so I've had time to get the "Ah ha, lets kill some brain cells!" urge out of my system.  I tried a lot of other stuff when I was younger, but nothing was ever really worth it. Anymore, I don't even take Aspirin unless I'm sick (and then I prefer Ibuprofin).

The caveat to that is that when my back goes out I have to take something heavy to be able to function at all.  From past experiences, I've learned that I build up a tolerance to stuff very fast. When my I first screwed my back up, they started me off with Vicodin. Initially, one helped. After a week, I was taking them two and three at a time and feeling nothing. They tried some other stuff until finally settling on Ultram/Tramadol. That actually worked well for a while, but again I got to the point where I could take six or so of the 50mg ones and not notice any benefit (although people told me I was generally much easier to be around but that could also be due to the mild anti-depressant properties it has). The only way I can get any effect out of the stuff I'm supposed to take for pain is to not take it for a prolonged period of time.

A few years ago I was stuck in a really physically demanding job, and my back was dying on me routinely. For a while, I was pulling my (then prescribed) Oxycodone capsule apart two at a time and mixing them in with my morning coffee. Another two went into my soda at lunch. The problem was that I'm naturally an insomniac and with the pills I got to the point where they made me almost hyper, so I ended up having to resort to copious amounts of liquor to get to sleep at night.

So yeah, I've done my time, and I'm content with being "boring" now.

I must say, for a group of (mostly) lads in their late teens and twenties there's a surprising amount of people who don't drink, smoke or do any sort of drugs. Maybe it's cause we're nerds and this is a gaming forum.

Title: DO YOU DRINK/SMOKE/OTHER DRUGS??
Post by: Killer Wolf on September 09, 2009, 11:34:33 pm
I feel bad sometimes about the fact that I used to be the big liquor sponge on campus, because I started a bunch of my friends off on it - and now I don't drink anymore. For some of them, I even bought/poured their first drink.

The first time I drank, I killed most of a bottle of Jack Daniels by myself and then, among other highlights, proceeded to scale three floors of a hotel via balcony railings. Some people still have that as their foremost image of me. It can make it difficult to associate with my friends from highschool, because they pretty much expect me to be that wild drunk guy.

As stupid as it sounds, the only thing that gets me "high" now is the endorphin kick from performing. Usually, by the time my band rehearses, loads up, loads in, and goes on stage I am in a state just short of absolute agony. The catch is that once I start, I don't feel anything but "the glow," as I call it. Of course, once the music stops, The Glow burns out pretty quick - chief reason why I can usually be found slumped over against my car in the parking lot after most shows.

i'm generalising but i've found people that use drugs recreationally can't get recreational without them and that's much more boring. maybe it's because people have grown up but my most exciting times have been while uninebriated. sorry but taking drugs and drinking isn't inherently interesting!!!

Or the crazy things involved with acquiring the drugs.  My friends and I went pretty far in obtaining a coveted quarter sack.  City dwellers might take it for granted, but in my town, a quarter could be hard to come by.

Post by: Kaempfer on September 10, 2009, 01:58:07 am
All of my peers in high school drank and most of them did drugs, and I thought they were all douchebags so I decided not to. Plus, I hate the taste of alcohol! That helps a lot when deciding whether or not to drink.

As I got older and cared less about people I knew doing drugs and stuff, they mostly stopped doing it all the time. I think we met somewhere in the middle. I don't know, I have a feeling I'd be a royal dicknozzle if I wasn't able to not say the mostly insulting things I am thinking all the time.

I am pretty boring in that I don't do drugs 'n' stuff, but I am pretty fun because sober I am more funny and outlandish then most of my friends are drunk. Plus I don't fall over and break things!

edit: I've never been drunk or done drugs! It's kind of an embarrassing group to be part of since most of its members aren't exactly the cool kids in school. Oh well. Pretty much everyone I went to high school with thought I was really into drugs because I had a crazy beard and long hair. The irony wasn't lost on me! Plus, awhile ago some girl asked me out of nowhere on the subway if I had just attended the weed rally (I hadn't, I was at work!). Of course, ten minutes later of painfully awkward conversation she asked some other girl if she had been (she had) so I think the first girl was a little crazy.

edit 2: like I told people I didn't do drugs and they literally refused to believe me. Like, REFUSED. I couldn't convince them. I had a bit of a reputation as being a class clown heh heh

i've been bored of drinking for a really long, and haven't drank with any frequency(more than once a month) for about seven years. i've always enjoyed the experience drugs render, but was never too deeply into them for any length of time, and never found a drug i ever really wanted to take with any consistency. you lose the fun of such things if you do it too often.

nicotine is really my only vice at the moment. i quit tobacco and just smoke e-cigarettes because i still love what nicotine does to me. it's a great stabilizing agent.

also i have developed a bit of a caffeine addiction, due in large part to the fallout from quitting smoking for six months. caffeine is a terrible addiction, in great part due to the borderline toxic shit it is commonly delivered to people with, that people have been conditioned to ignore the severity of. oh well.

these are pretty boring vices and approaches to them, but i've never been called boring before. i don't think there's any correlation between how interesting you are and the substances you are putting in your body. i meet all kinds of drug users that are dreadfully boring people. it's a myth perpetuated by the fact that most COOL DUDES are laid back and not uptight about trivial shit that other people are electing to do with their lives.
Title: DO YOU DRINK/SMOKE/OTHER DRUGS??
Post by: Kaempfer on September 10, 2009, 04:47:55 am
Man, I don't even drink coffee! I even limit my caffeine intake from pop (or soda to some Americans) to a pretty small quantity. A couple cans of coke and Dr. Pepper here and there. Most root bear and other soft drinks have no caffeine in Canada, so I end up just consuming a fair bit of sugar instead.

I do find that some COOL DUDES that do drugs tend to be laid back about a lot of things (like arriving on time or wearing button up shirts) but then get really angry at very specific things. I think all in all the only correlation you can draw is that, at least in some places, the drug users tend to be more liberal in their views and people who are more liberal in their views tend to be more laid back over all.

This is definitely not true for every case (I know a few who defy this convention totally), but many of the drug users I know fall into this category. This really only applies to marijuana around here and a few harder drugs like shrooms (which aren't hard, but they are less common than marijuana) but not at all for alcohol. I guess the fact that alcohol is so accepted in our culture (to the point where regular people are confused when you tell them you don't drink) that it doesn't alienate any part of the political spectrum.

this is very true.  

i'm 21, and getting drunk has been a pasttime of mine, but going on 22, it's not so novel anymore.  weed used to be a pretty big part of my life, until i realized just how stifling it had been.

nicotine is really my only vice at the moment. i quit tobacco and just smoke e-cigarettes because i still love what nicotine does to me. it's a great stabilizing agent.

also i have developed a bit of a caffeine addiction, due in large part to the fallout from quitting smoking for six months. caffeine is a terrible addiction, in great part due to the borderline toxic shit it is commonly delivered to people with, that people have been conditioned to ignore the severity of. oh well.

these are pretty boring vices and approaches to them, but i've never been called boring before. i don't think there's any correlation between how interesting you are and the substances you are putting in your body. i meet all kinds of drug users that are dreadfully boring people. it's a myth perpetuated by the fact that most COOL DUDES are laid back and not uptight about trivial shit that other people are electing to do with their lives.

I've only tried vodka once mixed with juice at college out of curiosity.  However, that was the only time in my life and I never did that again. As for the other stuff, no....no. My only addiction is a good cup of coffee and I could drink the stuff strong and black if I wanted, without any milk  :fogetcool: I don't think it's boring not to do those things don't ya know? Like back at school it was the opposite with some people, it wasn't a good time unless it was alcohol or something that altered the mind.

Actually, I'm surprised I haven't did anything yet, with the constant crap going on and all and everyone else doing it you'd think I would join them but, nah. I don't care what other people do though and I keep an open mind, I just don't wanna take anything due to my own personal reasons.

The only thing I've ever smoked out of PEER PRESSURE if you can even call it that was a hookah. Because when you are sitting in a circle and someone offers you the most useless, non addictive substance on the planet, shisha, and have no medical reason to say no, you don't say no!

Other than that I do some weekend bud and akahol a few weeks at a time every few months. Nothing serious.

Fluoride... now that's the shit I avoid.

I actually drank tonight but really don't feel too drunk, been noticing this effect a lot recently. I'm thinking I should slow down, because I'm very used to every friday and during the week too.. nowadays whenever I'm not working I want to right away DRINK. I'll always switch between different friends to drink with cause if it were the same buddies every time they'd probably not want to so much.

Bleh whatever, at least I'll have a good rest tonight.

Hmm. I smoke cigs, i smoke weed, and i drink every night.

I used to drink a lot. like, half a bottle of wiskey a night. Which was fun, because i would also be stoned.
In weekends I'd drink even more, because that's what we did. I must have killed so many braincells back
then.
When I go to drum 'n bass parties, I take either E or Speed. Haven't done that in months because
apparently i have a heart condition. I used to not care, but realized I'd rather not die just yet.

I've been sobering up in the last year. I have one or two drinks a night and still smoke weed on occasion.
I want to quit the latter. I've also given up on harddrugs now, because other than LSD and Coke hard drugs
just aren't really fun.

I'll probably get some coke for New Years. It's been a tradition for a couple of years now. It's the only day
of the year I allow myself to do so because the white pony is really cute and makes me really happy.

Don't do drugs kids!  :woop:

man yeah i think way too many people overlook how bad caffeine is.  i was addicted to caffeine, but over this past summer i switched to caffeine free soda (because i still really like soda i just do not want the caffeine!) and after a week or two of feeling either sick or really tired, i'm doing just fine now.  i still drink regular soda sometimes (especially in restaurants, though i often get water too), but i don't have any of the withdrawal symptoms i used to.  being dependent on anything like that REALLY SUCKS, especially when i went to iceland and had way more access to milk than soda.  i just did not want to be this type of person, it is kinda gross!

heh. You're absolutely right. You're also underestimating the power of being cheap.
Also, drugs here are cheap. Very cheap. Back in the days when I smoked a lot you'd be
able to get a gram of weed for about 5 euro. A bottle of cheap wiskey could be bought for 9.
an extacy pill costs about 2 euro's, depending on where you get them. I'd get 5 grams of
speed for 30. (prices for weed have gone up in the past 1,5 years. Fucking inflation)

The only real expensive drug we have is Coke, which goes for about 30 for the cheap stuff,
to about 50 for the regular stuff. I've never gone beyond that.

I think I used to spend around 15 euro's a day. I still spend as much, but it doesn't go to
drugs anymore. As to how I was able to gather the money... There are lots of ways to get
money when you're not of legal age. I've never done robbery or drugsdealing though.
(strange as that may or may not sound)

i clicked heroin even though i've only occasionally taken synthetic opiates in pill form. no SHOOTING UP but it's sorta the same drug. but you can uncheck me in your minds if you like. the rest is what it is though.

it's kind of hard to describe my drug habits since they tend to fluctuate, but i'm only occasionaly smoking pot anymore even, when i used to be a big pothead. nowadays i can only get excited by THE GOOD DRUGS........ basically if I'm not hallucinating i'd rather be sober. besides that, physical relief is fun (a rip or beer after work), but i've been too busy and too productive recently to really debilitate myself with them.

also:
caffeine is such a vile substance. i used to drink a lot more soda years ago, and now when i drink one it's the sugar or caffeine or carbonation or what, but unless the stars align somehow i feel like death afterwards. makes me wonder if i always felt like that before or i just realize it now that my intake has drastically decreased.

Yeah I took a morphine pill once and it was coated in some wax or something. It was pretty weak or I was just being really cautious about it because the guy that gave it to me said it was really strong so I ate only half and started freaking out when my buddy tricked me into eating one of those stacker energy pills and stuck my finger down my throat to make myself puke. Didn't work though.

Nope, not into drugs. A family friend died because of some laced weed (long story), also knew too many people who struggled with addiction. I know most people don't get addicted, and for most who do weed nothing happens to them, but it's just not for me.


On a side note, I had all four of my wisdom teeth out at once, and was jacked up on codeine when my friend took me to get out of the house. When we got back a bunch of friends were standing on my lawn waiting, and I got so excited I opened the door and jumped out of the car while it was still moving.

Surprisingly didn't hurt.

I used to do a lot more in the ways of drugs and things back when I was in my teens... weed, opium, lsd, mushrooms, speed, etc... my desire to really use any of that stuff has totally vanished these days. I used to smoke cigarettes from time to time but I've also since given that one up (although it took me considerably longer to get over). These days beer and other boozy pleasures is pretty much my one vice (asides  from coffee).

Even with booze I haven't really touched in the past month. Chugging down pain-killers due to dental extractions and releated dental work kinda' makes me weary of drinking anything. I guess it's a good sign if I can go for long stretches like this without it though. I might have a couple drinks with a friend tomorrow night (pretty much off the painkillers now other than occasional Tylenol and Ibuprofen pills)... gotta' celebrate a little before leaving for Japan.

I'm curious to try some of the local Japanese style booze n' liquor when I get over there though... that oughta' be exciting... might lean more towards the liquor though... my friend who went to Japan previously told me that beer is generally much more expensive over there compared to other alcoholic  drinks.

 I already take Adderall for my ADHD so I avoid anything stronger than occasional booze- It just seems unwise to mix it with anything else. If you consider caffeine a drug, I use that quite often, though honestly chocolate's my form of "self medication." I don't smoke at all.

No, because when you get really drunk you lose alot of that self control and reasoning you'd have if you were still sober or just buzzed. Being able to be that way even during that condition is a good sign imo.

*to clarify since I was notified I used the term wrong- it wasn't "bad weed" but "laced weed"

Please elaborate, because I don't wanna be a dick but weed is almost never laced regardless of what people think and if this happened I wanna know about it. Was it weighed down with windex or loaded with glass fragments to make it look crystalized or what? If you don't wanna say that's cool, I'm just curious.

I was a bit of a druggie for a while and I still enjoy them from time to time, but I'm currently on a 3 month NOTHING ILLEGAL stretch so I'm out of touch a bit. I've done mostly everything but super hard stuff and I really like the mind expanding stuff. Alcohol is the only thing I keep coming back to though, it's rocking in social circumstances.

Me and weed have a very tumultuous relationship.

She pmed it to me and it I've never heard of anyone doing what she's talking about either but its nothing specific or a DEEP DARK SECRET or anything I don't know why she's worried about it.


Like, I guess people call mixing cocaine or lean or anything else with a blunt "lacing" it but its not really a secretive thing and if you're smoking it people usually make damn sure you know what you're smoking unless they're twisted assholes I guess.
