Speaking of which - where's my copy of the
video, you swine. I wanna DVD it and chop it
up into chapters with fancy-pants graphics
and re-EQ'ed audio, etc.
Something to watch when you see me over Xmas,
innit.

Smack is a nasty drug and a very controlling one too.However, it is important to remember that most people do not get into hard drugs with a view to screwing up their lives and emptying their bank account.
Marcus's comment about excuses is just the kind of ill educated comment you get from someone who has never used drugs.
I have a friend in London. He is educated, funny , and exeptionally charismatic company. He is also a school teacher. He spent several years as a bad user. The reason he started to use drugs? Becuase coming home from the pub one night he got jumped by a couple of West Indians and raped in a parking lot. Imagine the mental fall out from something like that. He became so introverted and screwed up his marraige fell apart too. Double Whammy.
Don't tell me there are not valid excuses for falling into drug use becuase there are plenty of reasons people seek solace or escape.
For god sake, some people get apoplectic being near water .Some people cannot physically get on an aeroplane without a sedative. Are they weak or are they seriously frightened and in need of something to get them threw it. Just beause you and I can fly without a problem doesnt make us any better people. It might seem stupid to you or me but peoples fears, phobias, and weaknesses are very real to them. Sometimes a matter of life and death.
People get into drugs for many reasons and those reasons can feel very valid at the time. Who the fuck are we to say they are not? Just beacuase we cannot understand someones reasons does not make those reasons any less valid.
Oh yeah, my teacher mate was voted UK school teacher of the year last year. What a come back!

And you know what, I've never used and I'm very proud of it.
Look, I don't know how you can say that someone doesn't know, because they've never used???...what a crock of shit.
Dude, I've had friends high-bent on drugs...I've seen uncles and cousin on this crap...and I don't have to take drugs to know what it can do. So there ruins your theory.
So, on that note...my fingers are now taped together for this topic.
Hey Marcus, I am not for one second saying you do not have a perspective or an insight. However, from what you have posted, that insight is that of a viewer. That of someone seeing a friend or relative messed up. It is always from the view point of the person looking through the window at the guy sat in the chair and never from the view point of the guy in the chair looking back.
As guys, we might share the moment of the birth of our child. The emotion, the joy, the fear, even subconsiously the pain. But we don't Really Know what it is like to give birth do we? We can only try to imagine what emotions our woman must be feeling during that process.
We can have a pretty good idea about certain things based on what we see and what we are told but unless we really experience those things for ourselves we will never know the half of it.
Be proud you have never taken drugs. Hell! Im not trying to give you a hard time about that, nor am I advocating drug use. I am simply saying that the 'weakness' you refer to shown by those who may have used drugs is the same weakness you have. The same weakness we all have and it can manifest itself in other ways other than drug use.

yeah, It did cross my mind that that was quite an extreme example to use. My eyes were watering just thinking about it. My sister said it was like trying to shit a football.!
Carl...."Life deals you what it does"...
Life doesn't lead someone to their directions. The person knows what's right and wrong...everyone has a mind of their own...though saddly some are more weak-minded than others and choose the wrong path. I am not comparing Kids with users at all...it's just a point I made...that someone was giving full health only to kill it....When a child had no choice and even though smiling and living to their fullest...they still were taken away. That's all I'm saying.
...and I'm not saying or thinking I'm better than anyone else for not drinking or using....cuz that's the way I chose to live my life...I chose my life and the direction I want to go...Life didn't deal me anything I choose the path I wanted to go.
But all in all, we are all entitled to our own opinions so it's no biggie to me. Am I angered here at people for making excuses for usage...NO, not at all. I just feel usage is a waste of time.
Do I know people who use and I hang out with....YES....Do I agree with their choice and watching them waste...NO.

it costs a tenner for a half decent bottle of wine.
The only thing I find more tedious than listening
to some drunk's anecdotes, are the reformists who
zealously try to covert everyone once they've
managed to kick something, or the pious religious
