I have smoked pot, hash and oil. I once was tricked into smoking some cocaine…(in a joint)…the fellow that tricked me is still recovering, and still wondering what to do with his second asshole. Thats it for me…what drug is you favorite? Or perhaps you have never done any drug (street) and you never will. I want to hear from you too. ---

That was a former life and I just wish I could get my brain cells back. ---

My favorite, marijuana (the only illegal drug I do anymore). Street drugs done or abused in the past (note: I once was a druggie): Meth (& varients), LSD, PCP, cocaine, heroin, opium, morphine, demerol, (etc. on the narcotics…) ecstacy, psilocybin, mescaline, N20 (Nitrous oxide), & tons of minor tranquilizers. ---

Just made it through my college years without using any substance other than a little alcohol (not even drunk, just a little buzzed). I don’t have a problem with anyone else using drugs, I just really don’t like the idea of myself losing control, or “mind-altering” drugs. I must admit, I am a bit curious though. ---

Through most of my twenties, I was a daily pot smoker. I’ve smoke a lot of friggin pot. I haven’ touched the stuff in almost four years. Others: Speed (pills), acid, shrooms, alcohol, tobacco. Never did coke, never wanted to. I had a very hippyish attitude toward drugs. ---

Hmm… I never liked getting drunk. Nothing ever happens, it takes so much effort and all i do is throw up. I never liked pot, either. Yuck. Ecstasy, on the other hand- Whoof! It made me feel alive. Like I had woken up. I have done it six times in two years, but now it’s boring. I am used to it, and I’m really not interested anymore. What I am hoping is that I can figure out how to feel that way- happy and alive- without any drugs. Sometimes i manage to pull it off. ---

Allergic to alcohol. Never tried tobacco, pot, coke, heroin; never even tempted. And my friends won’t share their valium. But that still leaves plenty of nondrug-related vices for me to indulge in . . . ---

If it hasn’t been prescribed, I haven’t taken it. I drink occasionally and sparingly - alcohol puts me to sleep. I tried tobacco once - ick. Regarding other substances, like Eve, I’ve never even been tempted. I could be sappy and declare “I’m high on life” but the fact is, I don’t want to mess my body up any more than I do with excessive chocolate. ---

One time in grade school I had one of those Pixie Stix, lime flavored IIRC. There I was in the caf., holding a straw containing a powdery substance, with some friends watching… Bottom line: granulated sugar is definitely not meant for nasal ingestion. It **hurt!** Not to mention the after effect noted above. Nothing much since then, 'cept the occasional pipe or cigar (which I was doing LONG before it became trendy, thank-you-very-much!) ---

Since early 1990, I have only consumed various (all legal) types of liquor. Scotch being my favorite. I will not answer, (attention Press corps: don’t even think about asking) any questions regarding the time prior to 1990. heh heh heh. ---

I have smoked pot and while in the AF, dropped acid cuz it doesn’t show up on the goldenflow exam. I also used to drink quite a bit, but have cleaned myself up since then. I don’t do any drugs any more and drink only occasionally, and only a couple drinks at that. ---

I was and still am a pot fan, even though it’s been almost five years since I’ve last partaken. Lots and lots of the little bluecap psylocybin mushrooms that grow wild in the seattle area (Bellvue’s resident funky fungus) A few bottles of Robitussin cough syrup (Hey, I was young). To this day I can’t even stomach a cherry Jolly Rancher (yech!). Anybody here ever try PCP? I’m never going to try it myself, just curious about the effects is all. Whats it like. About the only thing I know about it I learned from that “Gorilla Bisquit” episode of the ABC Afterschool Stories, and thats bound to be a bit biased. ---

Heroin can be smoked, snorted, eaten or ing0ested. Opium, a bitter brownish sticky gunk, comes from comes from a certain species of poppie that grows in most of the northern latitudes. It is smoked. It’s also where morphine and codeine come from. IIRC, 10% of crude opium is morphine and codiene is 0.5%. Both of these drugs (heroin & op) will give you TOO good a high/rush/buzz, and intern, they are extremely addictive. The effect is so enjoyable that many who try these drugs, and can readily obtain them, center their life around the “drug high,” and become mentally and physically addicted, hence a junkie. I think it’s interesting that something that makes you feel so good can easily destroy your life. ---

Alcohol (just about every kind of booze but absinthe). Marijuana. Marijuana oil. Hashish. Hashish oil. Various kinds of downers. Various kinds of speed. Crank. Cocaine(standard, not crack). MDA. LSD. Mescaline. Peyote. Nitrous oxide. ---

In the past: Alcohol, pot, hash, speed, crank, mushrooms, acid, and far far far too much cocaine. These days, coffee and a few beers is the extent of my debauching. Oh, and the occasional shot. Tequila, slippery nipples, or kamikaze’s. ---

Pot, Ecstacy (MDMA), MDA, MDE (or was it MDME), lsd, shrooms, speed, n20, concentrated DXM, salvia divinorum. Note: MDA, MDE, speed, lsd and concentrated DXM were not intentionally ingested. Sometimes shady people make fake ecstacy from cheaper drugs (aka bunk E) Looking back, all that pot was fun, everything else was destructive… especially the synthetics. ---

I have had a bit of liquor, but never been drunk. I took one puff of a cherry flavored ciggarette, and it made me want to puke. And I saw weed for the first time last night. My boyfriend and I were going to smoke it, but I chickened out. God, I seem innocent compared to y’all.
