I find it a bit pathetic when people go on about all the drugs they've taken as if it makes them remotely interesting, just proves to me they don't know how to have a good time without being off their face on some kind of plant. Most people I know who smoke weed are just lazy/boring people who use it to enhance their laziness/ how boring they are.

Also, I can't understand anyone who would just pop a nondescript pill, could be putting anything into your system, eurgh. All this said I don't preach at people for their choices and I have mates who do almost everything, just seems like a waste to me!

Agreed on all points. My imagination is overactive enough as it is, I don't need anything to enhance it. If people choose to do drugs, then fine, because there are many people who can pop pills and still maintain a normal perspective on life, but I find it pretty sad when people talk about it like it makes them really cool, because in my view it makes them look like losers. And people who say taking drugs enhances their enjoyment of music - either the music they listen to is so incredibly shit it can't be listened to sober, or their appreciation of music is severely lacking. I know people who have fucked things up so badly cos of pills, but they don't even learn their lessons. I've witnessed formerly close and happy families break up as a result of one of their member's drug habits.
Anyway, I've made my choice, and it's something I'll never change. Good thing I'm not prone to peer pressure otherwise I probably would be literally fucked!

I feel really dirty for having laughed at that.

I've never even smoked a cigarrette, let alone done drugs, and I couldn't care less. I don't have any particular stance on the issue, and I would be very hypocritical if I said "I don't feel any point in affecting myself with substances" or anything like that, as would anyone who also drinks alcohol.

I just prefer to avoid drugs, for health/mental reasons, money reasons, and above all just the fact that I have no NEED or desire for that in my life, so why bother starting at all?

I'm starting to know what you mean. The man is definitely causing me to have a good think about the world at the moment, as I've started listening/watching more of him recently. If every single person in this world sat down and watched a Bill Hicks DVD, the human race would be saved.

Back to drugs though, I decided one day I'd try weed and see what the fuss what about because a lot of my friends do it and seemed to be quite harmless, and I found that it felt quite nice and I quite enjoyed it. But I don't like smoking, so I don't do it often, but it's nice every now and again to hae a relaxing nice. I suppose though I'm too scared to try other drugs because of health risks etc, and like Lord Ashbey said, I don't feel the need really. And like other people on here have said, it also annoys me when people brag about what drugs they've taken. I can only think of one friend I have who changed when they went to uni and thought they'd be good and phone me at 3am in the morning to brag about the fact he'd taken ecstacy, which really pissed me off. Fair enough if people want to try different things, that's up to them, but when people become twats it's a real shame. And unfortunately drugs do sometimes turn people into twats, which is why I wouldn't really like to dabble any further into drugs and such.

Oh yeh, the bragging is really daft. It's so childish... what are you proud of?! Getting mashed?!

I was also a bit shocked last year when some guy I knew in our halls would just be randomly on crack, which made him a bit violent at times, like the time he smashed a window in one of the doors... It's hard to be round people like that at times, you just don't know what they're gonna do.

Like someone said, I don't like the fact people just shove whatever in their mouths in pill form. I mean, how can you tell it's not gonna kill you?! I think natural stuff sits better with me..

whatever anyone puts into their body is their business. I've had bad experiences with drugs before. i'll smoke the occasional joint but thats it. if someone wants to do other drugs than thats completly cool, just dont boast about it or pressure someone into doing what they dont want. At the end of the day everyone should do what they want without some bullshiting hypocritical cunt looking down their nose at them

Most if not all of the weed available today is far from "natural", it's all been selectively breed for it's high yield/THC content.

Ner, drugs aren't really for me.
I don't have big problems with other people doing it, but with friends I usually prefer to be hanging around with them and not drugged up versions.
Also put off a lot of it after seeing someone stick their head through a window on their birthday, and slicing their nose in half... and people looking like their eyes are going to roll backwards inside their heads with their jaws jutting out aren't attractive in the slightest.

One thing I have noticed is that really stoned people don't suit really pissed people who don't suit other really drugged-up folk. When people are moderate it's pretty cool but when people take it extremes everyone gets irritated by everyone else.

Heres a drug related tale,
I'm pretty sure some bastard spiked my drink last night, I was fucked, my dad found me in the shower at 5 in the morning just lying there with the water running. I can't remember from about 1.30 onwards but my mate says I seemed fine until about halfway home then i could barely stand, I hadnt had much to drink at all. I dont understand why people spike drinks what to they have to gain from it?

by **Atom** on Wed Nov 14, 2007 8:00 pm

Fucking hell, thats mental man, how you feeling now? People spike drinks because they are losers who can only get some by drugging people. Lame!

by **MartinC** on Wed Nov 14, 2007 8:14 pm

To be fair, I don't mind drug use, but I fucking hate stoners. They always talk to you really slow with a stupid shit-faced grin with their eyes half closed and their greasy hair all over their face. Makes me want to shove a pint glass in their teeth to see if they perk up a bit.
