    Games

    Pros:
    Cheaper (or free)
    Replayable

    Cons:
    Bad for your eyes (if you're a kid with developing eyes)
    Harmful if played in excess (COUNTER ARGUMENT: The same can be said for everything else)

    and wtf, Heroin and Cocaine? Heroin is highly addictive and Cocaine ****s up your blood pressure, both have shitty withdrawal symptoms.
    When I first started smoking marijuana I told myself I wouldn't go as far as doing cocaine or heroin. A few months ago I started doing cocaine and still told myself I wouldn't get into heroin, and gladly haven't still. Withdraw symptoms for me with cocaine aren't that bad. The worst time I've ever had with withdraw from drugs would have to be crack. From the first time I did it, it permanently messed up my brain. I can randomly taste it in some foods I eat, or taste it in the back of my throat some days. I can taste it every time I exhale with a certain cigarette, too (Marlboro 27's)

    I haven't done any type of drugs for a few weeks now, so i just stick to cigarettes. It wasted my money, and after smoking marijuana I ate all my food in the house. Most of my friends stopped talking to me because I got into drugs, my family stopped talking to me and I've lost damn near twenty five pounds (cocaine).

    My advice, stay away from the heavier drugs if you can.

    Haha, why would you lock this thread? It's kind of a funny subject. The cocaine heroin thing was sarcassm. It was aimed at drugs in general, alcohol, weed, acid, pcp, shrooms, blah, blah blah.

    I didn't know if one of the mods would get offended or not, then I saw one actually replied with a positive answer

    If I could pick between drugs or video games, I would have to say drugs. The past sixth months I've been experimenting have been the most action-packed days of my life so far. I've smoked marijuana everyday for about six months now, all smoking dank. Mids don't get me as high as I used to. As I stated earlier I started doing cocaine a few months ago. Around the same time I experimented with acid. I've had good trips, and I've had bad trips. Alcohol doesn't really agree with my mentality because I want to go out in public after drinking, because sitting around hammered isn't very appealing to me. Now I haven't exactly drank any alcohol in a few weeks, considering I've had three underage consumptions in the past six months. Crack is a once every few weeks thing, because I don't want to get an addiction to it. I really haven't gotten into PCP or shrooms yet, although I'm always open to psychedelic drugs

    Other than bad eyesight, I don't suffer from any long term health issues playing video games. I have a number of friends who smoke weed (grow it as well) and I can tell you it's an expensive and self degenerating habit. Drinking is enough for me and I don't do that on a regular basis.

    you should try taking a looking at some of the long term effects of drugs. Meth mouth is not a pretty thing

I've also robotripped, taking an absolute idiotic amount of DXM, up to 850mg+ at a time (Dextromethorphan which is found in cough suppressants) and then smoking marijuana. My vision was shot to hell, as it felt like my eyes would not stop shaking. I felt like my vision was 20/200 to say the sharpest. The muscles in my face were numb, making my face looks saggy, and almost literally falling off. My speech was unbearable. I could maybe say three to five words in ten seconds, half the time having them all slurred together to form one giant sloppy word. My voice was tremendously deepened, almost having the exact opposite effect of inhaling helium.

    Another "drug" I forgot about was air duster. It's not illegal to say the least, you can actually buy it in stores. Air Duster (dust remover for keyboads), had to be the stupidest thing I have ever tried. When inhaling compressed dust remover, you get instantly high, usually within ten seconds at the most. The high then lasts for four to five minutes. Air Duster is hands down the strongest hallucinogen I have ever tried. I've talked to quite a few people, right before realizing I was completely alone. For some reason unknown to me, I had the strongest thought that I had to jump out of the car I was riding in, and almost did. I've actually passed out quite a few times from doing too much at one time. During the time that you've blacked out, you hallucinate like there is no tomorrow. Your eyes are wide open, but you're mind is no where near where you actually are. Your voice gets messed up, too for the first couple inhales.



    Hehe that air duster looks like fun.

    It's a blast to be honest, it just kills your brain cells in a heartbeat.

    I haven't tried them, but I've heard they taste like ass. A friend had to put them on a sandwich and he still threw them back up

    I prefer games, but I'm the kind of person who finds no enjoyment in playing games alone. The whole social interaction aspect of drugs is lost on me because when I play games, I play them with friends.

    I've had very bad experiences with prescription drugs though, so perhaps that's why I stay as far away from illegal drugs as I possibly can. I don't enjoy the feeling of being "outside" of my head.

    Mind sharing? Sometimes talking about what happened can help! (whenever I finish a bad trip, I write it down in a report to share. It really get somethings off your chest.)

    Speaking of which, I never got to write a report for Wednesday...but it wasn't bad at all...it was a wonderful, glowing experience. Still smiling thinking about it

    I've come to understand through people that use drugs, that if you are not responsible (Or as responsible as you thought you always were) it takes a serious toll.

    Games will never be that destructive.

    I'll send a PM your way, I'm not a huge fan of telling everyone in the world.

    Why not both?

    Seriously, be a little more open-minded.
    Like your climbing a mountain and a giant snowball is going after you.
    You can also freaking go left or right and not being chased by it or getting hit.

    The thread is about drugs vs. games. Obviously "Both" wasn't a choice.

    Drugs are bad... mmmkay...

    Go kill yourselves with drugs, but do not ever suggest anyone else to use/try them. Or I will come and kick your ass so hard you can taste your own shit. Drugs are not cool, they do not make for a good pasttime, they will damage you and the people around you. Drug money is used for funding criminal activities, if you buy drugs, you kill people and killing people is not ok.

    I just love how people that take drugs think that they're the smartest people in the world and think that if everyone did them we'd all be happy.

    Well welcome to the real world. Drugs don't only have negative effects on the person taking them (which obviously people don't seem to want to admit) but also on other people. An example? Ok how about all the car accidents that happen every day because of people being high?

    Now just try and convince me that with drugs the world would be a better place and that it hasn't ruined people's lives.

    Also you're free to think that you're the most responsible person in the world but from what I keep hearing, when you're high you're not exactly totally aware of what's right or wrong or what's dangerous or not. (correct me if I'm wrong although when people describe taking drugs as "feeling like superman" I don't think I am)

    P.S. This must be one of the weirdest threads EVER. Games are obviously less dangerous .

    P.P.S. Sorry if I went a little overboard but I felt that I had to speak my mind.

    That's because an idiot was dumb enough to drive high, it's not the fault of the drug. Proof being that it doesn't happen to everyone. Stop using things that have nothing to do with the DRUG, but to do with the PERSON.

    Idiots do as idiots are. You cannot blame drugs for that.

    They have, but they also haven't. They've done both, it's a personal choice.

    I've seen drugs have a lasting, negative effect on people I love. It hurts, but they need to make their own mistakes. They'll only learn on their own, and if they don't, then it's their life they're ****ing up.

    Then don't take drugs. Problem solved.

    Funny how most people speak their mind without using it.

    Well that's kinda weird how thousands upon thousands of dumb people drove off being high.

    Oh and yes I can blame drugs for that since, if they hadn't been high they wouldn't have killed innocents.

    And that last part was totally out of line. Even if this is the internet you should show some respect once in a while.
