What did people do before bluelight?

[coelophysis]

They used homing pigeons to send questions and answers back and forth.

 

[XThexXTank]

No I'm pretty sure they had tin cans n wire for communication.

 

[HeadphonesandLSD]

Nah man, all the cool kids used CB radio

 

[Toz]

Before the Internet, people got their drug information from considerably more reliable sources, like their friendly local police department or D.A.R.E. class teacher.

And if they were like me, they wondered what all the fuzz was about which made them even more inclined to try drugs in the first place.

Long range walkie talkies worked to talk with each other before cell phones and internet as long as you had the time set.

 

[HeadphonesandLSD]

Yes Toz I hear you, if anything DARE got me even more interested in drugs.

 

[Mr.Scagnattie]

Learned through our stupid friends who had been doing it longer but still had no real clue what they were doing.. hah.

I was "taught" to use H when I was 13 by two guys way older than I was. Looking back at what I know now in terms of HR, they showed me alllll the wrong things... hah. If I had kept using like that all this time I would have been dead or full of diseases.

 

[HighonLife]

[Mr.Scagnattie]

Yup. Ha. The ripe old age, huh?

My mom told me it was cool, they even had nicknames (kind of like usernames on BL).

[motiv311]

erowid is legit

 

[coelophysis]

It wasn't before the internet was legit though.

 

[What 23]

No idea. I'm only 30.

I would say in the open... It was peers. Information was available in journals/books but it wasn't as neat and streamlined as it can be on the net.

Before bluelight on the net... Erowid. Before Erowid, I overdosed on motion sickness pills and got interested in the effects... What happened. That led to Erowid. Forget how I came to blue light.

Before that... "Take 12 of these and you will feel drunk"... Searching and unable to find alcohol.

 

[Tommyboy]

Either moar drugs...or less drugs. Telegraphs.

beep beep beeeep bep...not beep healthy to do that beep beep amount beep beep i'd recommend beeeeeeep dosing somewhere beeeptween 150-200mgs beep.

That's why fentanyl was always so dangerous. It's hard to tell the difference between the "mg beep" and the "mcg beep", and hella people found out the hard way.
