Had completely forgotten about Christmas and its enforced drinking. What's the best drug for an office party? %)
Avoidance?

Is that the debortuary?
Hah, good call.Avoidance?

My kids don't even see me drunk. Perhaps because I don't ever have more than a couple of beers once or twice a year. You all seem to think that using drugs must equate to 3 day benders in dark dirty rooms in the early hours of the morning, with the sober person being the odd one out. Perhaps this is part of the problem here, you were never taught moderation or self restraint as children? I know when to dabble and when it is time work or , heaven forbid enjoy myself sober. My kids aren't thrust into a hedonistic life of debortuary but I am very open with any questions. They often ask why people take drugs and I tell them because they are fun. However I also show them the real effects and tell them about friends who have lost it all. If they are smart they will follow my lead and experience a bit of everything while still striving to be a productive member of society. It's not easy being a parent but I've never been one to fail at anything in my life before.
The parties and doof's I attend are so far removed from a rave it is frightening. Bearlove talks about plur but I doubt he has seen many raves where the dance floor is cleansed during an opening pray, and a group hug performed at the start of the weekend. Don't get me wrong, I find it to be a bit self indulgent hippy crap for the most, but it is nice having the time to hold hands with strangers and smile into each ones eyes while kids run around with hoola hoops. Drugs are obviously present, but they are not the focus for most people. Love and appreciation of the natural environment is more important than getting fucked up. It is a different lifestyle to the rave scene in Europe, the music is just as shit so you do need something to get you though. However it is a hostile environment that requires basic survival skills to have a safe time.
It is sad that I see so many of your lives invested not so much in drugs, but the need to get fucked up. Some of you it seems have lost the desire to truly live your lives for the sake of a permanent chemical state of mind. Drugs should be fun, but so should being sober. This forum is changing for the worse I'm afraid, and hope you see an influx of healthier souls sooner rather than later. Otherwise it is going to turn into the virtual worlds equivalent of a crack house squat. I'm sorry if I offend you but I have been a member of this forum for over a decade and I have never seen the place so miserable and far removed from HR.

But drugs are fun. Well some of them any way. Don't think I will be giving them a license to go out and get fucked up. My own personally believes are you shouldn't touch drugs until you are at least 20, and with some level of maturity. The friends of mind who went off the rails the most were the ones who started smoking and drinking heavily at high school. Education is important, and high school is hard enough without having to deal with come downs or scatter. I don't see using drugs as a reward for hard work being a bad thing. As long as my kids still put in effort and never use drugs as an excuse for failure then I will be happy. At best I hope my kids still find enjoyment in being sober just as much as being giggly.
Oh, hah, phew!I don't have sufficient time to counter all the idiocy in the last few posts of this thread. So I may just go back to sleep.
I'm obviously not talking about Sam or Swampy. Or PT.
Sleep is so attractive when staring OTW in the face.
Fuck....i totally agree with this though.

Look at it this way - you can stick it all in the Off Topic Wastebasket and be done with it.
I really tried my hardest to fancy Miley Cyrus but it never worked...
I can't really fault that one either to be fair.
