Quote from: TDoS on Jun 08, 2026, 05:34 PMIf by "stupidity" you mean "stupid enough to do dangerous drugs that might have corrupted you ability to know when to stop" then I agree with you.
Stupid is not knowing what dosage has potential to kill you. Cocaine doesn't corrupt your ability to know that. Heroin might, but if it made you that stupid, you already took too much, so you were stupid before you loaded the syringe. In any event, Heroin is not on the list of drugs I find worthwhile.
QuoteIt isn't as though hard illegal drugs are FDA approved now, is it?
Ever listen to the list of potential side effects of FDA approved drugs? Not even taken at overdose levels, DEATH is often on the list.
QuoteHunter Thompson and reaching the finish line....best quote ever. He got it. Drugs, motorcycles, parachuting without a parachute, whatever. We all choose our brand of risk, but I think Hunter had the idea right.
QuoteBut I don't consider choosing to avoid illegal drugs to be an attitude. It is a decision. And dad did booze, he wasn't a doper.
Alcohol is a drug and it is physically addictive. It's just a more commonly used form of "dope" that's legal. Nothing wrong with you decision not to use drugs, but your attitude is reflected in your writing about the reasons why. Your use of pejoratives like "doper" and "alky" demonstrates disrespect toward those who do choose to use them.
Quote from: TDoSQuote from: REFar as LSD goes, virtually nobody dies and it's non-addictive.Outstanding! I imagine that is why it is legal in all 50 states. Oops...wait....for some strange reason....it isn't. You make it sound so safe....I wonder why it isn't legal? All those straight laced folks just being a drag on a happy go lucky drug culture types?
Actually, it's currently being tested for use in relieving symptoms of depression.
