yes! or the people who "used to" be able to get amazing stuff for dirt cheap "back in the day", but of course now they cant find anything. I cant tell you how many times i've heard that crap.
for about 1 straight year i had a steady supply of OxyContin 10s for dirt cheap from a guy I worked with. One pill was about half the price of what a pack of gum costs some people these days (hope that didn't violate the no-price rules). This was about 9 years ago. I don't know if the dude didn't know any better, or if he just got it like that, or what. None of my friends believed me until I brought them over there. The funny thing was I wasn't doing opiates then; I would cop them and trade them for Es or other shit I liked from other people. A few years later when I was getting scripted Percs and running out 2 weeks early every month, the dude's cell phone was... off. Haven't talked to him since.
I feel you on people talking about ridiculous unbelievable hook-ups because most of the time its bullshit, but sometimes its true. Someones doin somethin and could get shut down, or move, or shit blows up, or dries up, or whatever.
Same thing with acid as someone mentioned above. Where I was in 2000-2001, shit couldn't be cheaper. Blotters and Liquid. It was everywhere, so cheap it was practically free compared to what I hear kids today are paying at shows and shit. Then all of a sudden it was gone. I literally haven't seen it since then; but I also haven't actively sought it out.
I love bullshit drug stories though. Shit is so funny. I remember back in 2001 (my glory days if you couldn't tell from above LOL) being at this after hours party rollin with a group of complete strangers and the conversation was centered around this one asshole who kept telling bullshit ass stories one after another. One about him getting shot in the back after trying to steal some dudes plants or something (no scars/marks though) and having a month long hospital stay, another about him getting bit by a poisonous snake while tripping on acid which involved again, another month long hospital stay where he hallucinated the whole time due to the poison and acid in his body. There were so many more funny ones this clown motherfucker was saying I wish I could remember. The girl that took us to that party ended up sleeping with the dude too LOL.
I met a kid at another party while lookin for E and he said "yeah I got you come back here in like 30 minutes" and when I came back he said he couldn't find any AT the party but since he used to "cook" E he could call the lab for me if I wanted. It was like a 45 minute drive to the "lab" and I'd have to drive him since obviously these E "cooks" don't trust anyone they don't know. I LOLed and my ex gf who was with me told him to fuck himself
