That's... nice I guess. It isn't really what I was talking about though.
i mean i guess i am saying that i think it's okay to dislike pot/ look down on potheads even if you drink alcohol.
i guess in the same way that it's okay to be a pothead and still look down on, like, glueheads or tweakers
you know will's old when he says "glueheads"
He's like the secretary from Ferris Bueller.
do they not have glueheads anymore?
i remember glueheads kicking around santa fe. it was a really bad addiction because basically their ability to be lucid kind of inverted to the point that they'd kind of just shamble around and gibber until they took a hit from their bag.
and then they'd have a minute or two of lucidity, where they could talk to you and remember your name and stuff, which would then start to kind of trail off and then they'd go back to being an animal zombie.
Hahah, honestly I may have bitten off more than I could chew with the whole D&D&D&D thing.
I've been considering just calling the whole thing off, though I'd feel bad about it. Hell, I'm not even unpacked from PAX yet. And looking a head I'm not going to have much of any free time for myself over the next 3 days or so.

Whatever happened to the mescaline addicts of my youth? Nowadays we have terribly rude drug addicts high on crack, toting a machine gun. Standards have fallen so.
Well, right but it's certainly enough to put someone over the legal limit if you're talking about that much in 2-3 hours, at least in the states.
You shouldn't drink and drive anyway.
Under any conditions.
Ever.
Well, um, I know?
Point being the legal limit is generally a reasonable basis for whether or not someone has consumed enough to be impaired.
I wouldn't call that "drunk" though.
After two beers consumed quickly I'm pretty sure I'd blow a .07. That doesn't mean I'm "drunk." Being unable to drive safely does not mean drunk, it usually just means tipsy.

It's only okay if you are okay with being a complete hypocrite, I guess.
i guess i don't see there being some sort of necessary common cause among drug-takers, and i think it's okay to think that some drugs are worse and some are better, and i think it's okay to dislike the cultures surrounding different drugs.
i mean, would you go to bat for crack or huffing gasoline or shooting heroin and their associated subcultures?
fwiw. i think that pot should probably be legal, but i still would dislike it.
But on the plus side I've met some people who work on those Microsoft Surface tables and am getting to fiddle around with some code for them. Aparently they run WPF (with a custom control set) or Silverlight.

Well if you guys can find a DM you guys are more than welcome to do whatever you want. I just am too busy. I guess I should make an official post/apology about this in the main thread. Actually, a PM would be more effective.

I don't mind being around drunk people at all. If they regularly get so drunk that I need to care for them, I get annoyed.

We never had the exotic addicts in my youth. Booze was the local drug of choice. The usual selection of stoners, a couple of paint huffers and the odd serious drug users who liked Coke. The hardest thing I had easy access too was Extacy and that isn't exactly the world's most hard core drug. Oh and a couple of amphetamine users.

i guess probably meth has kind of taken over for glue in terms of "what kind of dehabilitating drug you have access to if you live way the fuck out in the sticks"

Drunks are approximately a hundred times worse than potheads.
The worst I'd ever had to deal with from any pothead was a mild pot smell (which isn't exactly fair because I kind of enjoy it but let's count it as a negative) and overaffection.
The worst I've dealt with with drunks is belligerence, aggression, and just blinding stupidity.
I mean, it's pretty clear which is worse if you're going to judge.

One story about a famed drug user at school was that he sprinkled speed on his cornflakes. This was almost certainly a lie, but it added a nice touch of domesticity to his habit.
I seriously doubt that there has ever been a mescaline addict.
I'll second this, only because I tried it once, a lot of it, and fucking never want to come near it or anyone that does it ever again. Worst 14 hours of my life.

Dude Casey Jones was a baller. That dude could stay in character like a mother fucker. I wanted to go fight crime with him.
I should probably ask for someone for the spare spot for Mage: [chat] Awakening

Probably because it's not addictive in most capacities.
I mean, I loved LSD and shrooms when I was young but I refuse to take them now.
