Well, you could spend five minutes reading a couple posts that I wrote and assume I just easily came across these judgements, or you could look at my life experience which include living on the street for two years and having some of my best friends become junkies for stupid reasons. I've gone through what most of those people go through. I never felt compelled to turn to hard drugs because I knew they would fuck me up.

And I am looking at the big picture. People let others hit their pity switch too easily. It makes people easy targets. Likewise, have you ever taken in one of these people into your home for shelter? Maybe you should try it. A lot of people will scream a fit when they hear of people getting shit on for being addicts, but as soon as the idea of putting a treatment facility in their neighboorhood comes up, they turn around and scream to put it in the ghetto. That only causes further concentration helping the problem grow.

I had a counselor with a similar attitude, "In certain situations, say when I have a speech to make, I feel panicky, but I get over it". .. Oh yes, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT? Just fucking calm down.. SO EASY??? I'm such a moron. GOD FUCK ME!!!! WHY AM I SUCH A CUNT?

i like that attempt at "i've been there" condescension! you say i'm such a bleeding heart that i am at risk of getting taken advantage of, and therefore, i should take a drug addict into my home when i have no training or resources to help them. makes sense to me. you're right, i am not living with addicts, so i must be part of the problem.
you're the one who dismissed these people as criminals, not me.

The pictures are swapped - it should be the other way around. Meth makes you as purty as a blooming flower.

Well, before you go flying off the handle on something, perhaps you could actually try to work towards a solution instead of idle yammering.

You chose to live on the street for two years (most other people seem to fucking get round to having a job), why the fuck should anyone listen to a fucking bum like you with your street "wisdom"?

Well, I learned my lesson. I have a nice home and a good girlfriend and such now. I did choose to live on the street, but I will never make that mistake again.

Anyways, this argument is stupid. I'm going to leave it at that. Nothings getting discussed, things are going in circles.

well, being informed about something being bad for you, is not the same as knowing something is bad for you.

I'm gonna agree with taxidermist on this one. I've been in that 'scene' and know how it works. Most of you who are bitching in this thread are just sitting at your fucking computers forming invalid opinions on a subject that's in your blind spot.

Taxidermist, you lived on the street for 2 years? In Vancouver? In that case you know what you're talking about. Tell us more about that. I bet you have stories.

Not too many stories. A lot of depression. A lot of unhealthy thoughts. However, there was this one time, where one night I was staying in a shelter, and the guy three beds away took a hit off some pipe and then proceeded to masterbate while staring in my direction. I left that shelter at four thirty in the morning, took my food stamps, and never came back.
Its hard to think straight when you are in that condition. Not much happens. Its a survival state.

Yes. But there is only so much credit you can give people. People keep on telling you "Crack will fuck you up. Heroin will turn you into a junkie. Hard drugs are bad" and you decide to go use those drugs thinking nothing bad is going to happen to you?

I frind of mine was killed buy a person driving on Meth. THe person swerved into her lane and hit her head on. She was killed instantly. The person on Meth lived of course. Not a scratch. Which is typical.

i'm glad that's the worst story for you. most people aren't so lucky. in all honesty, i can tell the exact same story - it happened to me while i stayed in a hostel on vacation, except i had to buy my own food and some dude tried to rob me as well.

in other words, it is so fucking far from a "big deal" it's actually funny in retrospect.

i like the idea of this site tho. people looking rubbish and then another picture looking even more shite. why does it just have to be meth tho? can't it be more mundane, like "here's paul before he did the dishes, and here he is after" and everyone can say, "what a fucked up cunt".
i bet loads of meth users become bogloads more sexy too but their pictures are destroyed like in 1984.

When did I say thats the worst thing that ever happened to me? Why do you feel the need to polarize everything. As soon as someone says something, you throw it into the context of the absolute extreme. It doesn't accomplish anything besides insulting your intelligence.
