show was always a joke in my eyes. well, not a JOKE but what did it teach us? besides leading us to want to head out there and grab our DRUG OF CHOICE! funny, because as I wrote that in capital I now realize what people mean when they say DOC, lol. only took 15yrs of message boarding (if thats a phrase) to realize that.
but yes, some of those were just whacky and what some considered addiction. yes, an addict is an addict is an addict. but that woman who did that shit w/ the breath stuff that gave her the buzz. she'd walk into the store and walk out w/ 30 bottles. go right into her card and get that rush! imagine? I am an ex dope fiend and can understand getting in that car and getting that rush; we've probably all been there before but its just funny to think of it w/ spray bottles and breaking that cap so you can get the fastest BOOM BANG! or whatever you want to call it, ha. just whacky, man. maybe they were just running out of people to film. also, you have to be at a point in your life when you are ready to openly admit to being a junkie. I am SOMEWHAT open, or WAS somewhat open, w/ my addiction, but would NOT want the world to know. god forbid people Google my name, or relatives are watching/happen to flick by the channel and they see my face/name/location, etc. unless youre paying me BIG CASH which will make me happy as a MOFO (and probably will all be spent on drugs since youre catching me in the middle of addiction in order to kick the show off right, right?)
its why you never caught a HOT girl on the show. its also why many of the guys are missing teeth or are coming out of "rough" lives or whatever.
find me a 25yr old HOTTIE who admits to using behind the worlds back, which many people do, and have her openly admit that on Intervention. then I will sit back and watch that MOFO! until then, I will have to lay off. much like the dude who started this thread, I was also in a sober house back then and started watching right around the same time. the program should have been DENIED at programs, jails, halfway houses, etc. just like others said, I would watch the FIRST HALF HOUR and then SHUT OFF IMMEDIATELY!
I always loved seeing how others used, came up w/ cash, pulled moves, etc. go figure, but so many of the chicks would just turn tricks. who would have thought, right? or maybe just used her BF's cash or some BS like that. I never would have guessed, man. was all so new to me, lol. god bless those bitches who got their DOC for FREE or a HUGE DISCOUNTED RATE!
the show did catch my attention for about 3 months but if its still on and running.. GIVE THE FUCK UP ALREADY! you'd have to be a fucking complete MORON to think anything they say is true about video taping an addict shooting on the streets. but, as others said, if they are paying for my drugs during the filming, at least $200/day, then yes, sign me up and let me BLAST AWAY, baby. I would have to move to Europe or something after, or at least out of the state where I am currently living so I would not be as exposed, considering I am sooooooooooooo popular, ha. but yes, I would not be able to live in the same area if my spot were to be exposed like that.
any idea what these kids get? MONEY? just program (which are fee anyway)? free flights? I guess it is KINDA COOL you get to FLY AWAY and go to a program out of state, right? how am I not getting dope sick on that flight? can they supply me w/ one last gram before I go? ha. or can I shoot on the plane on behalf of Intervention?
