The UK loves drugs.
We are so fucked up here, I'm almost proud.

Goddamn. The price of coke isn't that great. Honestly, a $20 bag will get you over 8 decent-sized lines, so you're paying just over $2 per. That's cheaper here (Miami) than the UK price. Then again, who knows how cut it is. Shit's inconsistent here. But the price of ecstasy is like whoa! That's fucking cheap as hell. Is the UK like the club capital of the world or something? :lol Shit's still like $15-25 a pop here depending on who you know. Crazy. Just one more reason to move to Europe this Summer. PEACE.

Yet despite such efforts, the price of ecstasy has plummeted by 70 per cent over the last decade to £3.50 a pill.

WoW i remember when it used to cost a tenner a few years ago,good times tho :lol

Wow, if Ecstasy cost as much as a six-pack, some of us would be in a lot of trouble :lol

"some of whom have become so hardened to the chemicals that they take up to 20 tablets a night"

God damn. Is this really true? You'd think that people might give it a rest once it takes 10 pills to feel anything. At this point your brain is probably irrevocably fucked.

"clubbers who are increasingly spurning ecstasy in favour of crack."

What the hell is wrong with you people? :lol
 
It's too bad that Starbucks doesn't sell bags of coke.

BTW, what is the reference to Acclaim about? Were the programmers/management alleged coke heads? I wonder how rampant coke use is among sweatshop type programming houses (like EA). I am sure coke will help your program through the night and into the morning.

I think a co worker of mine is a cokehead. HE is ALWAYS sniffing and swallowing..like he has constant, persistent coke drip. :)

I agree that the price of E in the Uk is fucking insane. I used to buy 50 packs for $15 a pill and thought I was getting a bargain. $6.50 US for a pill is just stupid.

What are the negative effects of cocaine use (I'm sure they outweigh the positive effects), and how much is needed to overdose and or fuck you up forever?

I'm really not interested in any drugs like that. Admittably they scare me a little too much, I won't even do extasy. And shrooms, they can be scary too if you don't know who you're getting them from.

I'll just stick to my unlaced weed for now. Maybe I'll start trying Blue Haze or something I don't know.

We're not happy in the UK unless we're paying over the odds.

Coke's stupid...but admittedly fun. But then again, most drugs are fun when on it. Coke's honestly not much different to me from Adderall or Ritalin. I'm more talkative on them, and usually drinking a lot so it doesn't really matter. Cokes drawbacks are numerous. Coke drip is disgusting, and for me, I'll have a runny/bloody nose for like three days afterwards. Not gushing blood, but when I blow my nose, there'll always be spots of blood there (capillaries). That's if I use one nostril most of the night. If you do like me and lick the bag too, my tongue will be a little swollen the next day, but not major. Really just an overpriced, underperforming drug. Makes you fiend more than I'd like, and you're prone to doing dumber things than usual, like having sex with chicks who have down syndrome and then try to hookup with your sister's friend later on that morning. :lol Yeah, it was an interesting Xmas Eve. I don't do it much. That was the first time since like August. I'm usually so tore up after a night that I don't want to touch the stuff for a while.

Stick to the herb, you can't go wrong. Speaking of which, I'm supposed to be off that for this month so I can see how much I save. Yeah...we'll see how long that lasts. :lol PEACE.

Between this and the "Skip town if she's pregnant" advice, you really have become an awful person in the last 5 years :lol

So how was she?

In the Netherlands Coke costs €15 a 0,5 gram . Pills are like €3 per pill . Weed is different every shop/dealer . Mostly it's €5 for 2,5 grams i thought( it's a long time since i used weed) .

Netherlands = Drugs heaven

LOL! I really have. My moral compass is pointed firmly South. :lol For the record, she was like 5'2", 80-something pounds and disgusting. But, she was willing, so that's pretty much all that matters I guess. If I'm going to Hell, I might as well go 1st Class. It was a trendy crowd at the party too, and I tarnished what little rep I had with them. Meh, can't say I care. ;) PEACE.

Well, I did say it was dumb, right? :lol And she didn't have down syndrome, but she looked it. She's actually some 30-something fashion designer...she designs handbags. My sister was talking to her, and I was bored b/c I was THE black guy at a party where I knew like 3 people...and not even that well. So I go over to talk with my sis, and she introduces me to this chick, and she just starts feeling up all over me. This chick was busted though. She was short and crack skinny, like I could feel nothing but bone on her arms and legs, and she didn't much to spare on her cooch either. I picked her up and carried her to the car easily and I'm not that strong. So she had to weigh like 80lbs. She wasn't stupid or anything, but if you saw her, you'd think like down syndrome or severe scoliosis or something. Her back was kinda jacked up. And I'd made about 5 trips to the bathroom in 15 minutes, so I was coked to the eyeballs and totally threw judgement out the fucking park. So my sis and friend come out with us to her car to toke up, and this girl's still all over me. So I jumped on the grenade and started making out with her. My sis and friend probably got grossed out b/c they start to leave, and so I ask her friend for a condom...and the rest is history. I'm over it now, and it's not exactly the worst thing I've done. But it was a bunch of people from the Coconut Grove club scene at that party, and now they'll just know me as the dude who fucked the gimp. PEACE.

that's a hell of a story. personally i never did anything stronger than weed. well...there's this chemical compound called ethyl chloride...and it'll get you high for like 1 or 2 minutes. it comes in liquid form...you spray it on a handkerchief and just breath in the fumes with your mouth. anyway, its a good high. basically some sort of a local anesthetic that fucks up your senses for a short duration. i did that a couple of times.
but yeah, i see ecstacy is damn cheap over there.

My experiences with coke aren't as colorful as Duane's. I'll even say that cocaine is the one drug that makes me least likely to do anything stupid/outrageous. I've had some opportunities with some really hot girls while on it, but for some reason, thinking about doing anything made me feel guilty.

YMMV: My friend stripped naked and rollerbladed downtown wearing nothing else but a big maple leaf. It flew away pretty quickly. So if you're the kind of person who becomes wild after some drinking, coke will probably have the exact same effect.

However, as fun as coke feels, it really doesn't last long enough to justify how much it costs. At $80CAD a gram, I can only buy myself 4ish hours of coked up happiness. The comedown isn't fun either, and you'll go crazy once you run out. After coming down, there's nothing else you want but more coke. I know you're young, and I definitely recommend against trying coke. There's no way to predict how much you'll use after you try it. I only meant to try it once, but here I am having it done 20+ times since August. Which is too much for a drug like cocaine.

Damn man, 20 times since August? That's not as bad as the addicts out there, but that's still rough. I live in such a quiet town I wouldn't even know where to buy coke, let alone use it safely that many times.

Not based on my experiences. Last time I did coke, I partook in a foursome, and no one complained about size. Before I got hard my dick experienced something similair to cold water shrinkage, but once I was on, I was at full salute.
You do need to realize that you can't climax on coke, but as long as that's not all you're trying to do, you should have a great time.

Sounds like you're talking about Poppers, but Poppers aren't ethyl chloride so maybe it's something else. Either way I've never tried them.

"some of whom have become so hardened to the chemicals that they take up to 20 tablets a night" God damn. Is this really true? You'd think that people might give it a rest once it takes 10 pills to feel anything. At this point your brain is probably irrevocably fucked.

I second that. That's a lot of pills to be taking. I wonder what goes through ones mind after the 5th, 6th pill and yet you still don't feel anything or the high is very short.

Not in my experience... coke has never been related to my ability to climax. Ecstasy is supposed to suppress orgasms, but I've never had sex on it.

20 times probably sounds like too much, but at least it's better than doing meth or ecstasy 20 times. Coke, as long as it's not cut with weird shit, won't affect you (or at least, the impact will be negligible) psychologically in the long-term assuming you don't become a full-blown cokehead. The drug is completely metabolized (half-life of 40-60 minutes) within a few hours provided you don't drink.

I live in a semi-quiet town (100,000 people), but I also live an hour north of Toronto, and even our small town has a reputation for drugs. We had the biggest drug bust in Canadian history IIRC. You can get anything here, relatively easily. Sometimes, shit will be hard to come by (like now), but Barrie, Ontario is definitely not a place you want to live in if you're trying to get away from drugs. It's one of the reasons I want to move eventually.

Doing meth fucks you up, don't ever try that.
