Salvia is a helluva drug

Dope is entirely contextual.

Personally I use it most often to refer to pot, but that's because I don't associate with junkies.

Anyway, I'd say that "poop" is more or less uniquely a part of heroin's nomenclature.

is that because taking a shit on H feels amazing?

a la vomiting on oxycotin

What's H?

Oh, do you mean poop?

I think anyone I've ever smoked with(who have never done heroin or sold it), would laugh their ass off if we called it dope.

'Let's smoke some dope, bro'

The best was in high school when douchey cops/my dad would call it grass.

Grass is almost retro enough to be hipsta again

you're absolutely right. on the same token, "getaway sticks" in place of "legs" is about due to resurface.

Pretty common colloquialism in my experience. I'd reckon there's a generational gap moreso than it being some geographic idiosyncrasy. Mostly because I've smoked dope with folks from all over the world, but not so much with folks younger than me.

Mostly inspiration in my composition and lyrics, as well as a greater understanding of my own
Psyche and the ways I stand to improve. Nothing I have to defend to anonymous internet peeps who know nothing of the substance though.

Also, Dope = Heroin. Very different from lysergic acid diethylamide, google it and inform yourself.

Care to share some of these lyrics and/or greater understanding of yourself? Or is that what you use to justify it? I wonder, are you honest enough to admit (if not here, at least to yourself) the downsides to this shit?

As for me, I suppose you could say I'm biased, and against the idea of self-medication in general. The objects used to fulfill that end vary widely, some legal and some not. The "war on drugs" is futile, and a waste of time until good men and women decide to craft a more decent and respectable world for themselves.

Easier said than done. For some (read: most) people, it is in their nature to avoid conflict and decision. To forgo their beliefs and their pride in lieu of "peace" and apathy. The marks of a great person, to me, are; conviction, honor, dependability and the burden of responsibility.

I have never met a drunk/stoner to exemplify these traits, and let me tell you, I never will. People use even the mildest vices as an excuse to avoid and escape what has seemingly become the crushing burden of decency. It is pathetic. We are better than this.

I don't know you, and in a way this post isn't directed at you. Maybe you're one of those mythical "functioning users" who can be a part of society and manage to not be a walking pile of shit. Maybe you don't treat women like garbage. Maybe you speak proper English. Maybe you actually give a fuck about the people and world around you. From my experiences, though, you would be the first.

Winston Churchill was a raging alcoholic. Said some really funny shit, too.

I guarantee there are better examples to counter my argument than Winston Churchill

Matter of opinion I guess
