Well maybe you got thinner now, but 4 oxys at once is pretty dangerous. Unless your body weight permits it or you have a long-time habit.

that's a profound question. most people would "take two" and live the mediocre life, something they'd consider the happy medium. the person taking three will appear to be spot on but will have to live with nagging regret. four would have great time for a while, but shortly after will nod to death. no option left but to take just one, and titrate.

This is retarded. Hey fred, what's the mg?

i drink heavily about twice a month sometimes 3 and ive been on anti depressants for like, ever. im more prone to not remembering anything from my night out because of this. i dont like it.

10mg

I probably weighed 140 when i was doing my 4-at-oncers. good times.

i'd say 2, then maybe take the 3rd & 4th an hour or two later. I say this as someone without an opiate tolerance, and weighing 130 lb.

This aint cool, what about non-prescription drugs and alcohol?

Im too healthy to have a prescription for summit.

Alcohol will do just fine.

i used to do a lot of prescription drugs, but that was a quick in and out thing for me. i discovered some lorcet in my parents' prescription cabinet, and it was downhill after that. i cleared out the cabinet, and i'm sure my parents became suspicious at one point, because after that they would never leave unused prescriptions laying around. once done, they went down the garbage disposal. then, when i got my wisdom teeth pulled in college, i knew my parents had suspicions when they tore up my prescription for vicodin. it sucked real bad once the numbness went away.

well, the other day someone gave me 3 generic vicodin. didn't know what to think of it, couldn't even figure out why they gave them to me. well, i ate a big dinner, then popped one. an hour later...nothing. popped both of the remaining pills figuring it was gonna be weak. finally, just before i went to bed, it hit me hard. i was super fucked up off just 3 pills. this morning, felt fine (maybe still a minor buzz). headed off for my field work. smoked a cigarette in the car and got real clammy real fast, felt sick, like i was gonna pass out. i blasted the AC and in a minute it went away, but i still had some sort of withdrawal feeling in my stomach. even though the high was great, i felt so much like shit today, i wondered why the hell i took those pills as well as how the hell i ever did pills the way i did back in high school.

anyway, i'll stick with weed from now on. i get pretty fucked up since i hardly ever smoke anymore, and i usually drink on top of it (which i also hardly do anymore). weed and cigarettes is totally my combo of choice. i dont like mixing alcohol with it because it really tends to get me a bit too fucked up nowadays, and i hate getting fucked up and passing out 2 minutes later. so most of the time, it's just weed or just alcohol, unless it's one of those rare nights where i can actually pace myself and not overdo it.

tl;dr

this thread is weird

like drugs are enjoyable but reading this makes me think, why is it that so many people that listen to electronic use drugs?

is it bad to use drugs?

where do you draw the line?

i really enjoy drugs but why must they be so tied in with Autechre and such. just a thought.

i don't know if i like it,

it's an interesting connection, but is it really that common among electronic music fans? more common than among fans of say metal? i am sure they have their fair share of potsmokers and the occasional weekend user too.

someone should do a sociological study if music taste has any bearing on drug usage.

There was a night that was particularly shitty down in the nightclub local to me. There was NOBODY on the dance floor so I asked the "DJ" if he'd put on some Acid or DnB. He looks at me all funny and goes "that shits only for people on drugs". I just laughed at him and walked off.

I've got a load of promethazine syrup, codeine syrup and DXM/diphenhydramine syrup waiting for me at the post office (got delivered while I was out). I've also got some very nice weed (cheese) and will probably spend most of tomorrow in some kind of weird sizzurp trance. drugstore cowboy.

i just find it funny, i didn't use drugs for the longest time, I just found all this music that was actually interesting to listen to, but most people who were into it were doing drugs. eventually i gave up and admitted that lots of musicians draw inspiration from getting high

i found that while not all people who use drugs listen to interesting music, pretty much everyone who does listen to interesting music does or has done drugs. there are exceptions to this rule.. it's pretty rare i run into them

you're going to have fun. Also, have you had cheese before? Isn't it odd? It's like, you smell it, and it's "ugh", but 1 sec later, your nose is back in the bag sniffing again...

cheese smells absolutely amazing, tastes incredibly strong, but lacks real bite. the high has always seemed slightly.... synthetic to me. its a seriously enjoyable smoke merely for the taste though. makes your mouth water.

what is cheese ?

type of skunk weed innit blud.

cheese is what we call hash here

Funny, my prescription drugs are not to be taken with alcohol.

And I know why.
