Should I Start Using Heroin?

Message Bookmarked

I've reached the midway point of life where things start to get harder, and everything's seriously fucked for me already. I have no desire to interact with other humans anymore because I see everybody as scary vultures. (I am unusually sensitive and easily intimidated.)Do I owe the world anything except keeping out of its way? Only a few more decades to go, why not 'sleep' through them?

no

Spend five minutes at yr local safe injection site, and you'll see why no.

do it!

kyle (akmonday), Monday, 27 June 2005 15:38 (twenty years ago)

I agree. Do it.

I hear that when you put a spike into your vein, it makes you feel like you're a man.

Also, that sometimes you feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive. This feeling is especially pronounced whilst standing at the corner of Lexington and 125th Street.

If you have no desire to interact with other humans any more, why are you posting on an internet message board?

I thought people did that because they want to interact with others.

What about laughing gas?

NITROUS - C/D?

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 27 June 2005 15:54 (twenty years ago)

Seriously, though, I'm the wrong one to comment. I like interacting with people. I see life as neither easy or hard. I've worked hard to find joy in every day, and I do, often in unexpected places. I see people, not as scary vultures, but delicate and flawed and funny and insecure.

So, just ignore what I say.

peepee (peepee), Monday, 27 June 2005 15:55 (twenty years ago)

maybe you should start smoking, but in a really menacing manner.

If you're committed to bowing out then for God's sake go out with a bang. Horse is a lot of hassle and a big commitment. If you have an aversion to sweating, scabs, really painful shits, confinement, doctors or really, really thick people don't do it - you'll be running into them all very frequently. If you want to do something solitary that'll keep you occupied without much cerebral input from yourself I suggest reviewing horror films for a living.

What about this?:

I've never tried it, but I haven't tried heroin either. Heroin probably just gonna solidify your people are vultures thing, so why not this?

Halvorson explained the advantages to Salon Magazine in 1999, noting that after trepanation, "you look at problems as a source of entertainment."

Becoming a lush is much more socially acceptable, so long as you don't drive.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Monday, 27 June 2005 16:23 (twenty years ago)

heroin killed 2 of my friends

find a different hobby

charltonlido (gareth), Monday, 27 June 2005 16:25 (twenty years ago)

Go for it, if you want to try it.

Jeff-PTTL (Jeff), Monday, 27 June 2005 16:30 (twenty years ago)

Just start eating. Everything. And never, ever get up off your fat ass.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 27 June 2005 16:30 (twenty years ago)

What about it ver Naked Lunch? All that book says is that the 40's junkie world was destroyed by the Harrison Act and he had to flee to North Africa to be a smackhead. Hardly an endorsement.

Being rhetorical, surely.

Bob Amal (bobnope), Monday, 27 June 2005 16:46 (twenty years ago)

I mean, it sure beats "my wife walked out on me and ...." as a subject header.

Bob Amal (bobnope), Monday, 27 June 2005 16:47 (twenty years ago)

I have decided that I am going to take up either crack or heroin on my 85th birthday.

gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Monday, 27 June 2005 17:08 (twenty years ago)

That's funny...my 85th birthday will be the midway point of my life too!

If a female fighter pilot shoots down a lot of airplanes, she becomes a heroine.

However, if she shoots up a lot of heroin, she does not become an airplane.

you post on ilx, so you probably don't have much to offer humanity. go for it!

lemonhead, Monday, 27 June 2005 17:28 (twenty years ago)

just play GTA:SA. It makes things easier to deal with.

kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 27 June 2005 17:38 (twenty years ago)

Smack vs. Watching TV. Hmmmm. Go with the Smack. Really, it's better for you than watching TV.

Just don't rob my house, okay?

...or showing up in CalvinKlein ads.

peepee (peepee), Monday, 27 June 2005 17:55 (twenty years ago)

maybe start off with acid. it's cheaper and provides for better entertainment.

Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 27 June 2005 18:47 (twenty years ago)

or kool-aid. kool-aid is good.

dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 27 June 2005 18:50 (twenty years ago)

actually, i once knew a guy called crazy dave who was a huge advocate of tussin, the cheapo equivalent of robotussin which vitally lacked whatever ingredient causes gag reflexes when consumed in large doses.

dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 27 June 2005 18:56 (twenty years ago)

Dangerous Dave?

Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 27 June 2005 18:58 (twenty years ago)

crazy dave. so crazy he was rejected from a psychology experiment about solitary confinement. i don't think he uses computers

dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 27 June 2005 19:08 (twenty years ago)

superdave?

Acid's great. If you score some, let me know where you got it.
