Famous Last Words

We've all heard someone say something that we knew would lead to their downfall. I don't mean that they were going to die right away, but rather were just getting in way over there head, and all you could really do is offer a quick warning (which they promptly ignore), and then watch as they spiral out of control, or not hear from them for years only to find out how bad they ended up.

Many times on Bluelight we will see a thread title of someones "famous last words," we will recognize them as such, and two years later we will read a post by them about how they just got out of jail after robbing all of their family and friends, got kicked out of 15 rehabs and detoxes, and now have finally gotten a little better, and finally came across a computer (since pawning all their other ones) to give us an update.

So what are some lines that you have heard either on here or in real life, in which you knew that person was about to embark on a journey with one of the three destinations [jails, institutions, death]?

This isn't meant to belittle anyone that has said these things, but rather to discuss some common themes in what was said, and for us to maybe help some people that may be thinking these things, and also for some people to relate to these sayings. It can be good for some laughs too (this is Drug Culture after all, where lighthearted conversations take place :) )

I'll start;

"I just got prescribed xanax!!!! How much do I need to get high, and what can I take to potentiate them? By the way I have a very addictive personality."
 
I see a lot of people who have posts stating things like "using heroin without forming an addiction." Where a person makes a blog like entry describing how he/she has been using heroin once a month or once a week, and that they don't understand what "the big deal is". Most of the threads like this that I see, are actually bumped from about 6 months or a year ago, and the OP has come back and informed people that she/he's lost almost everything he/she has, and begins inquiring about methadone or suboxone.

I've also seen people asking "how much dope should I shoot", "how much dilaudid should I take (no tolerance)" etc. I've argued in some of these threads For the OP to consider the potential consequences that could result from "shooting dope out of curiosty", but it rarely does any good. What's sad is that most people, including myself cannot learn from other's mistakes. Trying everything for yourself first, before making a judgement is something I respect, but it sucks to see someone else trying something that's been pretty much tried and true
 
IRL I had a friend who was only gonna shoot heroin once you know just to try it. Right we all tried to dissuade him I swear as soon as he did the shot he says " I wanna do this again" Dude ended up in jail and lost what little he started with.
 
I've had new people come in to a group of friends I hang with, usually trying to act all hard when it comes to tweaking.
Long story short.
"Watch this dude"
30 minutes later, we're rushing through stoplights to get to the hospital.

On a lighter note, before taking a huge tree perc bong rip of salvia
"I'll be fine if I just stay in the room"
I don't know how many minutes later, but i'm floored on the concrete outside of the house mumbling and drooling all over myself.
 
"I just slammed the last of my dope. I'm done. For good this time."

Two hours later looking around for something to pawn.

That was me, two hours ago. Argh.
 
"I only wanna try IVing herion once.. I know for a fact I have mad willpower."

"I can quit cigarettes any time mad easy."

Most recently..and not to poke fun it's actually a really serious matter.
"Shoudl I go to the ER, the abcesses (pl.) on my arm have flaired up and there is actual skin falling off my arm I think it may have to be amputated."
Thank god this person went to the ER and is being treated for sepsis and coul dhave died if they waited a few more days.

(while high) "Yeah bro i'ma def detox starting tomorrow" (thinks to self how easy it's goin gto be)
Then tomorrow hits you liek a wall of bricks and you are out hustliin again.

"I am not fucked up I only took a few bars" (proceeds to act like a fucking prick that every single person at the bar thinks is an asshole and is embarrased to be around)

(After getting clean through rehab or something) "I am just going to chip now"
 
Lol, the notion that you can use your own thought, product it is of your neurochemistry, to safely and with appropriate logic alter the very chemistry that gave rise to the impulse in the first place.

You can't stand on your own shoulders to get to a higher point, and you can't properly control your brain enough to alter itself heavily or for long without seriously screwing up. Much like psychopathics who also engage in murder or rape (chemical-inducing stimuli that alters neurochemistry in a powerfully pleasurable way, for the psychopath- another addictive stimuli) cannot, in the end, stop their impulses towards self-gratification, even despite awareness of personal risk, drug addicts cannot do so consistently either. The only difference is that psychopaths have inherent neural structure that ensures the development of obviously negative addictions, while the neurotypical drug user actually commonly ends up themselves supplying the neural reinforcement and development of less obviously negative addictive pursuits, by freely perturbing their neurochemistry.

We are all products of our brains. If we neglect them, misuse them, or alter them, we must assume the risk of malfunction. The object of drug use, therefore, should be to obtain the most pleasurable stimuli possible while maintaining relatively normal functioning of thought, subconscious processes, and emotional experience.

Cannabis passes the test. So do most psychedelics. Alcohol does not. Tobacco can pass it, if bred to much higher potency to reduce mass required. Opiates, especially, even primarily, those that are injected or smoked, do not. I know from experience this truth. You always risk long term alteration of or perturbation of normal cognition, through the feedback effect addiction to these chems causes in neural structure and normal operation of your brain/mind.

Many drugs are safe tools, most are like trying to use a gun to swat a fly. Try enough times, and you'll succeed. Chances are, far too well.

Lol, [/endrant]. So I guess mine were: I am in control, I know what I am doing, nothing will change my world.
 
I have a friend that pulls the old "I'm just going to go back to dealing, but I won't use," after getting out of rehab/jail. I'm sure you can guess what happens next, and he just recently got arrested again (his 5th time doing this cycle), so he'll likely do some time.
 
"it's just another route of administration, bro..."

No ones said that actually, but I thought it was funny.
I've heard a lot of people saying things like, "I'm just gonna stick to the pharmaceuticals man." And within a week, they're shooting heroin again.

If you got the needle fever, I think that it's incredibly hard to use opiates orally or through insufflation. Whenever I've relapsed, I go straight for the syringe, and with drugs like cocaine, I just wouldn't use it unless I could smoke or shoot it.
 
'Shall we open another bag' or 'shall we buy some more' are the phrases that usually get me into the most bother!
