I've came to the conclusion that cocaine is natures way of saying u have too much money the cons... 1. its expensive 2. Compared to other far cheaper drugs the high is short and not very good, 3. the majority of it is cut to bits.
the pros. 1 u can eat on it.
Any opinions?

Perhaps a proper list of pros and cons would be better...?
Source.Quote:
Coke is a white powder that's usually divided into lines on a smooth surface and snorted up the nose with a rolled up tenner or a straw. It can be smoked and is sometimes made into a solution and injected.
A gram of coke generally costs between £40 and £60.
40 tonnes of cocaine were brought into Britain last year*. Coke is big business. So it's not unusual to find the odd wrap padded out with a bit of sugar, starch or talcum powder. Truth is that some wraps of coke would do a good job of cleaning the bathroom.
*Source: National Criminal Intelligence Service
Taking coke makes users feel on top of the world. It's a bit like speed (amphetamines) but it's stronger and doesn't last as long. People taking it feel wide awake, confident and on top of their game.
Coke's a stimulant it raises body temperature, makes the heart beat faster and staves off feelings of hunger.
There is a flip side.
After a big night on coke it's not unusual for people to feel like they've got the flu.
Some people act like they're the greatest... dancer.. lover.. comedian on the planet. Usually they're not.
The hit from coke doesn't last long (20-30 minutes).
When the effects start to wear off there's a strong temptation to take more.
Coke is very addictive. It can be very difficult to resist the craving and strong psychological dependance due to changes in the brain. Recent evidence suggests possible long-term changes to the nervous system.
Although psychological dependance is more of a problem than physical withdrawal symptons, low mood and feeling very rough soon after stopping can also tempt people to take more coke. A habit can be expensive and take over your life.
Crack and cocaine users have died from overdose. High doses can raise the body's temperature, cause convulsions and respiratory arrest. Risk of overdosing increases if crack is mixed with heroin, barbiturates or alcohol.
Cocaine is bad news for anybody with high blood pressure or a heart condition. Perfectly fit, young people can have a fit or heart attack after taking too much coke.
Those who get into coke often find they begin to crave it more and more.
Using it a lot makes people feel depressed and run down.
Too much sniffing coke and you're sneezing lumps out of your nose into a hanky.
People who use crack or coke regularly often develop serious problems with anxiety and paranoia. It's a known cause of panic attacks.
Because the effects wear off so quickly, cocaine and crack are expensive drugs. A cocaine habit can seriously damage your wallet.
Very large doses can cause death from heart or respiratory problems. You may not know you have a pre-existing heart condition.
Large or frequent use of coke tends to knock sexual desire on the head.
If there have been previous mental health problems coke could bring those problems to the surface again. If a close relative has had mental health problems there might also be an increased risk in some users.
Injecting any drug can cause vein damage, ulcers and gangrene. Dirty or shared needles and other injecting works can help the spread of HIV and hepatitis.
It's easier to overdose injecting. Cocaine is a local anaesthetic and it deadens pain at the injection site. This makes it harder for injectors to notice the damage they may be doing.
Using alcohol and cocaine together can be deadly.
Injecting a mixture of cocaine and heroin, known as a 'Speedball' is one of the most dangerous cocktails you can put in a human body. It is also potentially deadly.
Taking coke when you're pregnant can damage your baby. Coke causes miscarriage, premature labour and smaller babies and may cause congenital abnormalities. Babies born to mothers who keep using throughout their pregnancy show withdrawal syndrome.
Cocaine and crack are Class A drugs - illegal to have, give away or sell. Possession can get you up to seven years in jail. Supplying someone else with it can get you life and an unlimited fine.
Fact: Passing drugs among friends is supplying in the eyes of the law.
Fact: A drug conviction could stand between you and your ideal job.
A bit lame? believe me that is the 3 most important facts involved in somebody looking for a good night out, the facts u put up were the standard school leaflet and probation centre bullshit that is the main reason why ppl use class a drugs in the first place(once u see 1 lie why are'nt the rest lies?) Coke is shit on all fronts, value for money and chance of getting ripped off. Btw I don't advocate the use of coke I was just wondering why it gets such a big write up amongst the beautifull pll have u taken any yourself?

1/ What will this do to me.
2/ How can I use this safely.
Now I don't advocate the use of cocaine either, but on the other hand I'm not against people using drugs either. As long as they do so safely.
And the facts included in my quote are truthful, I've seen these things happen with my own eyes. I've spoken to people who have experienced this.
As for coke being shit, well like you say it's a rich man's drug...though I'd prefer it a lot more than to speed, pills or acid all of which are far "nastier" drugs imo.

If you wanna hang out you’ve got to take her out; cocaine.
If you wanna get down, down on the ground; cocaine.
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.
If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues; cocaine.
When your day is done and you wanna run; cocaine.
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.
If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on; cocaine.
Don’t forget this fact, you can’t get it back; cocaine.
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.

So true, so sad.
But yes, it is a rich mans drug, but unlike weed it will fuck you up totally in the end.

Drugs r bad from a getting on in life point of view..nastier meaning what? all of the afore mentioned drugs have different reasons for taking them.Quote:
speed, pills or acid all of which are far "nastier" drugs imo.
Weed will fuck you up as well, not in the same way but not doing it is still far healthier than doing it.Quote:

Drugs are as bad or dangerous as the people using them.
Ignorance and abuse make drugs kill.
I agree wit cheese on most points.
If used wisely, well informed and with the meaning of broadening your horizons
fitting your boundries, most drugs can definitly add to your wellbeing.
It is there where people use it mainly to compensate for their stress, emptiness,
trouble, lonelyness, etc. with drugs, (being a total fool helps too)that they start
getting dangerous.
I will never promote the use of any drug, incl smoking and drinking.
I do however find all drugs should be legalised, so we can finally use the money
now lost by the -never to win- war on drugs and the money made by the mafia,
to truly protect our children and less fortunate from the scum of the earth.
We should have total (governmental) control over all of the processes, hence get
an enormous extra flow of taxes(very high taxes, imo), have control to who is
sold, more control over quality and quantities sold, fairer prices for the farmers,
better education(on drugs),etc, etc.
I know it sounds totally eutopian and off this planet, but i think in the end it is
the only way. ;)

True but most things will make you unhealthy, Coce does the mind too, dependancies.
I don't care what anyone says, I know weed is not adictive, unless you're extremely weak, and there are people who just fuck themselfs up with simply over doing it. But Coce can just be a mind job, ever noticed the way a friend gives you a line, then a week later and little bit more, just socially, then you think, "I'll buy some" and thats it, they gotcha.
But yeah, Weed or fags, beer, most things we enjoy are more healthy not to do :lol:

There is no way in the world I can teelll anyone not to drugs, I would be being so hypocritical :lol:

I think drugs if used occasionally and in the right frame of mind are fine. The same way having a few drinks occasionally is fine.
I also agree that they should be legalized. It is much easier to control who has access to them if they are governed.
I don't use coccaine personally. I did at one point in my life and will agree with Jonno that it is very easy to abuse, and not easy to quit.

on the ride home we talked about christmas memories.
about his big family gatherings with the christmas tree in the corner. I would stop in, and his mom would feed me coke and mushies. she'd always send some home for my mom.
we talked about my christmas mornings. both of my parents in their pj's smoking pot and watching us tear open the presents.
we sat in the park and smoked. until we were both tearing eyed, wanting everything to stop changing. wanting our childhoods back.
we drove home the rest of the way silently. and when I got home, I sat on my chair, looking at the christmas tree with it's xtc and snowdust ornaments.
I'm finally in the Christmas spirit.

all droga
coke, speed, acid, E totally kick ass and will make you feel like you never felt before (out of circumstance)
enjoy it if you do it.
I think most humans know it is not natural to do so.
hence they use logic.
most people have logic, use it.
Different drugs are for different ppl, so ppl may want to be high some may take downers, it fils a gap that they miss in life, what we need to ask ourselves is why we have that gap, what is it were looking for? were all a product of society, to have taken any drug in my family background was absolutely taboo which is probably the reason I did it in the first place. I have probably taken every substance that is documented on the search for something that I like and fills the hole that society has left for me, I believe in a world that does'nt exist that was shown to be my world by ppl I respect,I was a late 80's child, designer drugs washed through my town in no time at all. I swam with the shoal and liked it although it caused me no end of misery looking back now even though I have lived off the principle that I'd rather regret something I'd done rather than something I'd never done I still have regrets, Knowledge is power how can cocaine be classed as a class A drug when 2day I've had a bout 1/2 gram (just to be sociable) and already I thinks its shit but as for cannabis I've tried to do without for 15 years and still failed, the problem is that it is'nt the cannabis thats the problem its the nicotine in the ciggarettes thats the problem yet I can buy ciggarettes in a shop next to the sweets I buy for my baby girl. the government needs to put its cards on the table and stop lying about the reasons behind its drug classifications.
In short cocaine is over rated.

E's these days are like sucking farts from dead seagulls arses, the main ingrediant for "e" mdma is banned in most european countries now anyway due to the lack of need. it was once used as a psychiatric drug but now its been established as doing more harm than good, finding a real e these days is like the holy grail of narcotics, most e's are usually a mixture of ketomene and amphetamine, the majority of coke when washed with bicarb of soda to make crack usually produces about .6 gram of pure coke if your lucky thats why I knew that the jean lucca vialli I had was ok but its still shit.Quote:

coke is a fucking expensive habit and you really dont wanna go down that road.
thinking i can control it is just plain stupid, you can't thats why drugs like coke are so popular once you start doing them socially they become a habit and then your stuck on them, till your in trouble and have to stop. I should know i have been there and it ain't fun when very bad men start asking for money you dont have.
Who the hell said e's have a good come down. they are pure shit in a pill and your will know it for the next 3 days after taking them. the urge to slash your wrist because you feel so low is just not worth the few hours your up.
from an ex user just do it the once and walk the hell away. Its fun to say yeah i did so and so but making it a habit means trouble. one day someone will pass you something that you dont know about and you will regret it. I was once given mdma (pure ecstacy) as cocaine. i snorted it and started freaking out in a club. next thing i know i woke up in a gutter with no money hurting all over.
drugs are very bad when you dont know what you are doing and when you know what your doing your an idiot.
stick to the beer its not safe but at least it has to be of a decent quality.
p.s this is a drunk post all evidence contained in this post cannot be used later
NO what you mean there 4-play.
I agree with yogi and otheres in that it was the user does with thte drug and how they use ti that matters but that assumes evryone has full control over there dependancies - I used to work in rehabs/ detoxs/ drop ins/ street outreach int he Uk for abotu 5 yrs adn they all had the same attitude when they started.
The human mind isn;'t ready for that shit in general - for thiose who are "enjoy" for those who think you are .......
