I'd be the last person in the world to condemn drug use amongst consenting adults, but, seriously, anything you take for the express purpose of fucking up your mind is going to, eventually, fuck up your mind. If you're just saying "it isn't the evil demon killer that it's been made out to be", fine, but I get the feeling you're arguing that it's totally safe, and I doubt that.

Um, no, my actual evidence is watching two GFs get so violently sick that I nearly took them both to the hospital. Other evidence involves seeing people still fried several days after the fact, people unconcious on club bathroom floors, etc. I can go on.

You speak like an uninformed idiot. Take 3 tabs and report back to me in 48 hours.

And it is up to each individual to determine whether they want the brain they were born with or the one permanently damaged in the constant quest for a better high. We all have access to drugs, it's a matter of having the desire to seek them out or not, to use or not use them.

I'm not opposed to making drugs illegal but I don't think that solves the problem and perhaps makes it worse because there is no regulation and people don't know what they are getting.

So, here's a poll.

Who is the funniest person (stand up comedian or comedic actor) you've ever watched?

Hands down, Bill Hicks, R.I.P. Funniest motherfucker ever, and a great social commentator. Rock is so comfortable and smooth, and his material is great, so he's a close second. Eddie Izzard is pretty funny too, for an English Executive Transvestite (Le singe est sur la branche.)

Wrong. That's the jail scene from 48 Hours.

The line is, "When you think of love, does your heart beat fast?"

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Bus Boys song. He seemed to love them.

Whatever. I'd never take 3 tabs at once.* Yes, I've seen all sorts of shit too. Much of the worst shit I've seen was related to alcohol abuse. But I've seen the effects of pretty much every drug out there other than heroin (I've had some seriously druggie friends and, yes, I've even tried a few of them myself).

You freely buy into the "X is Bad" propoganda, and I'm saying let's see what they actually find out. We disagree. Fine. Don't call me ignorant until you back it up with something other than anecdotes.

So what do I win? (Well, I should get half of whatever the grand prize is, no?)

[Sorry -- I just never win these things -- I've gotta demand prizes on those limited occasions when I actually have a claim!]

I don't have a dog in this fight, and this is probably non-responsive, but in my view those people that ended up unconscious or having to go to the hospital just took too much. One hit (in my experience, which is not vast, but not that limited either) gets you plenty high and all you emerge with is a backache. Moderation. I think X in moderation is pretty safe. Not like heroin, which seems to be pretty dangerous no matter how much you take.

sort of like alcohol.

And you have apparently put blinders on and repeat the mantra of the club kids that Vitamin E is good for you.

You honestly think that repeated use of a psychotropic drug like MDMA won't have any negative effects on the brain? I'm floored.
Is your BF a dealer or something? Honestly, I've never heard anyone as purportedly as educated as yourself say something so fucking idiotic as this.

Get your freak on
 

Problem is, no one takes just one.

Haven't reputable medical studies already established that continued use of E/X is associated with long-term memory loss?

Get your freak on
 

I never said it was good for you. I said I've seen no evidence that it is as bad for you as alcohol and cigarettes. I haven't. Your oh so persuasive arguments haven't changed that.

Oh, and, yes, my BF is a dealer. Don't hate the Flower.

Get your freak on
 

Yeah. But that's just stupid. I understand that frequent use reduces the effect, but taking three of those things is flat-out dumb. A half does it for me. If I want to fuck for 15 hours, I'll take a whole one. But so far, I've only wanted to do that (once or twice).

Too much of anything is harmful. Hell you can die from drinking too much water.

I trust you noticed that this is the modified version of the original commercial. What is she wearing that didn't exist in 1984?

I was thinking that pringles was the you can't just eat one thing, and I figured I would mock you with a picture of a pringles jar. But as it happens that is once you pop, you can't stop. However, if you search you can't eat just one, the second page gives you several interesting descriptions, one of which reads:

great set of tits bet you can't eat just one, the lesbian is ...
great set of tits bet you can't eat just one, the lesbian is touching a pussy of
her partner, great set of tits bet you can't eat just one, the lesbian is ...


It is truly amazing what one comes across on google.

Yup, they added an ipod. the rest is the same though, which is kind of neat.

Come on, Slave... Nothing's good for you in massive amounts. Its all about reasonable moderation. Taken responsibly on special occasions, E isn't going to damage your brain any more than an occasional piece of cheesecake is going to give you advanced heart disease.

And contrary to your theory, I believe acid and mushrooms actually help the brain. Yes, I understand just how Grace Slickishly naive that sounds, but between six packs, I do occasionally have some quite interesting creative revelations while tripping.

No, you flat out said it wasnt bad for you.


Anyway, I'm way over this discussion. Time to go listen to some Danny Tenaglia.

Show me where I said that. Without going in and editing my posts.

ETA - yes, I'm over this one too. my point was never that it is known to be safe, it was that it is not known to be as unsafe as other things that are not illegal.

Not, as a public service, I must remind you that MSNBC is the Jay Leno/Bill Cosby of news services.

In fact, it's "news" is just repackaged stuff from other places.

A biography of Katherine Hepburn that is just coming out claims she had affairs with Judy Holliday, Judy Garland, and lots of others. Katherine was the Hepburn who was always wearing pants in the movies, for those who don't know 50's and 60's stars.

The "IT" list
 

Come on man, it gave me the opportunity to say something snarky about Tom Brady. A quarterback who I hate almost as much as Kurt Warner. Hell, he's already taken away, "Brady's a fluke" from me - cut me a break.

Brady is cute though. More than can be said for Warner. Oh, and Brady won me $450. More than can be said for Warner. Oh, and Brady doesn't have that snarky bitchy wife like Warner does.

Heroin doesn't appear to be quite as bad as everyone commonly thinks it is. It is apparently only slightly more addictive than alcohol, and not nearly so much as cigarettes (though, of course, the cognitive impairment is quite different). Right about on par with speed, which my mother's generation still fondly remembers as "diet pills."

I've known a few (OK, 2) people whom I would qualify as "occasional recreational users without undue negative side effects" of heroin, and one whom I would qualify as a "she needs to cut that shit out" user. Worse odds than among my alcohol-using acquaintances, but that may have more to do with (i) my socioeconomic group and/or (ii) statistically insignificant sample size and/or (iii) give the drinkers a bit more time. In any event, my understanding (from a reasonable amount of unexpert and quasi-interested reading on the subject) is that the real problems with heroin stem from it being illegal (irregular dosage, cutting with soap, crime both among suppliers and users, etc.) and from the fact that the self-selected group motivated enough to seek out big-stigma illegal drugs like heroin have psychological profiles rather given to drug addition, more than the opiate per se.

But then the only crack smoker I've known personally (not counting the change-jangling guy on the corner a couple blocks from my place) also fits into the "occasional recreational user without undue negative side effects" category, so YMMV. I've known an awful lot of people who use coke, none of whom seem to have come down with a "problem." Which makes coke one hell of a lot safer than drink, pot or acid in the universe as defined by DS's annecdotal experience.

That wife of his is mainly the reason he's #1 on my list. That, and the fact that he lost me $250 in the pool. Bastard.
Tom Brady isn't really cute, but when you compare him to Warner, he's at least not as ugly. I can't explain it, I just don't like him.

NBA All Star Game
 

I'm a little ambivalent about LeBron not being chosen for the All Star team. Can someone convince me that he belongs there - this year? There seems to be some hoopla that he was snubbed.

Personally, I think he's got plenty of time to play in All Star Games, and while he's been a huge addition to the Cavaliers, I'm not quite sure he's up to par as an All Star.

What's to hate? Admit it already: Belichek was right about Drew Bledsoe. I liked Drew as much as the next guy, but it's time to move on.

yeah, but Magic, Bird, and MJ all made it their first year.

No, he's right. The reason you need to keep reminding us how fantastic your tits are is that you had a really shitty childhood.

Roll Poll
 

A little bird (or rather, a graceful swan) suggested a new sex poll, so here it is:

Have you ever done the sex in a restroom (your home bathroom does not count), and if so, do you think it's better to use the mens' or the ladies' room? (If it was a same sex encounter and you used the facilities of the opposite sex, please explain your reasons.)

I have never done the sex in a public restroom. Too fastidious. As noted here before, however, I have done the sex in an apartment building laundry room. It smelled nice and snuggly fresh. Furthermore, grad school roommate did the sex with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle in a club bathroom. I don't know what the sign on the door looked like.

And just a guess here that ThrashersFan will not answer in the affirmative. I can't imagine that a place that's not good enough to "rest" in would be good enough to fuck in. I also predict a no answer from NFH and Atticus.
