What do you mean by that then? Because it is quite a loaded term.
I cannot be a pisshead because I never get drunk.
Yes, no, no.
Ha! In denial eh?
I'm just surprised that you seem to need all these substances.
I have, its nonsense.
I may have a glass of wine with a meal but thats in a totally different league to indulging in the three substances you mention - how often do you use them?
do you honestly believe people smoke weed cos it is horrible?
do you think queen victoria and millions of other victorians used coke and opium cos it was awful?
do you realise the vast majority of the admiralty and the house of lords and commons ...were opium and cocaine users ...for pleasure ...with few problems?
Have you got any bad experiences with any of them? Ecstasy in particular is an incredibly enjoyable experience. It can also be very spiritual, and you might be suprised to learn that many religious people- including the old monk- have taken ecstasy to communicate with God and/or enjoy their faith better.
it comes from the word ...pharmacia.
I've no wish to snort the marching powder and have half my nose eaten away. I like to be grounded in reality rather than float away in a drug-fuelled stupor.
how the hell did we come to have the greatest navy and fighting force in the world with the four most common chemical pleasures being alcohol coke cannabis and opium?
cos it was highly fashionable amongst the middle classes of the day.
At the end of the day it is a personal decision. I respect your decision not to touch the stuff. But you and others should respect the decision of those of us who make a personal choice to take certain drugs for recreation.
And yes, it can get out of control. But that applies to everything else from alcohol to gambling. So far as the person in question minds their own business and their drug-taking doesn't affect others or their environemnts, it is really not for anyone else to do anything about it.
See a Gp and get a referral to a trick cyclist mate. (Unless you are trolling that is)
You are as mad as a hatstand.
notice that it is his first miracle.
it aint life saving ...it aint even important.
he was at the wedding of a reasonably wealthy man.
they had loads of wine but drank it all.
now if jesus was like you ...his first miracle would have been getting them all home safely but no ...he produces more booze!
and the people declare it to be the best they ever had!
he could of course have been like you ...he could have set an example ...'don't you think you've had enough lads' ...
dick ...the illegal drugs turn over in the uk is estimated to be around seven to ten billion quid a year ...how many other companies are selling products on that scale within the uk's borders?
how come the nhs hasn't collapsed?
Yes, and Aladdin can live without them too.
You are totally missing the point, Aladdin much like the over whelming majority of users is NOT addicted. They take the drugs because they enjoy them, not because they need them.
Just because one drug is illegal and another not doesnt make any ethical difference to the consumption itself.
Thats a lot of money going into the criminal underworld and you cannot deny that drug addiction brings untold misery and eventually death to many many people, their families and friends. I do not buy the line that "we control our drugs, they don't control us", you're in denial my friends, ultimately drugs will win and you will lose, and pay in degradation & misery, and death.
When you sup with the devil you always pay the price.
So you are suggesting that everyone who smokes cannabis goes on to have an addiction and die?
...and a lot of them use drugs recreationally.
There is no such thing as normal and please expalin how someone who takes drugs cannot be decent?
