Yeah, he's a pharm-boy. He's doing alright I suppose... going through some rough shit, but it could be worse. We talk everyday for hours upon hours most days keeping each other company so... yeah.
Originally posted by Lanny I would be OK if the subject of vaginal chalices, cups, mugs, or tankards didn't come up again ever for the rest of my life.
Too bad... as long as I'm posting here, I will probably mention vaginal chalices again and again from time to time... likely for a week every month. Fucker just bought me another one so I'd stop bitching about losing mine. The one he found is nifty as fuck with a spiket, and shit. "DigGold" is the brand name of it, as apposed to "Diva Cup" lmfao... I should have it by the next time I'm on the rag, hopefully. ith all the menstrual blood I collect in it, I probably am going to mail him some mentrual art. I also got some heparin coming too... to write letters in blood and shit, since he kinda liked the idea of the one I signed in blood for §m£ÂgØL. At least someone appreciates my... creativity with my bodily fluids, unlike some people.

We butchered him the next morning. We ate him, and he tasted wonderful... just sad people do that, extending suffering, and that, it is unfortunate we couldn't raise him to be about 500lbs or so before slaughter so at least he could enjoy some bit of life rather than only know suffering...
I have empathy for all creatures, be they large or small. I have seen animals consume their prey alive. Had hogs get into the goat pasture and eat the babies being born alive. Sick shit. We ate good pork that night. Karma was a bitch to him though... felt bad about him running around with 3 rounds in his head, and 4 to the side, finally a heart shot to taken him down... 4 hours...The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Did have someone nice though the other day, black woman (not a nigger since obviously she proved herself a human being by doing this) pulls up along side me, taps her horn a couple toots, and I look over and she shouts over "Hey, your left break light is out" "Thanks! I appreciate it, better you tell me than a cop!" She thumps up me and drives on. She was driving a piece of shit car, but all her lights were working lol it gave me hope in humanity again... but I still screamed at and called 3 people niggers or faggots for my hour ride commute home that day...The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

He drank a little as any normal teen does, but he never liked the taste of alcohol or beer. I don't either. It's just everyone goes out and gets shit-faced on their birthday... I guess he wanted to be different, and I followed suit, in his honor. It's funny to have to explain and tell people to fuck off when they INSIST you drink on your own god-damned birthday. It's just something I don't do. I don't drink often anyway, and hate hangovers, and feeling like shit from drinking. Like my father, I got drinking out of my system before turning 21 (probably 18-19) and really have no desire to most the time, unless I'm in a fuck-the-world, I wanna just be Jim Lahey mood, which usually corresponds to being very suicidal at the time.
My dad told me the story, even had the article in the news paper clipped from all those years ago, in the late 70's of a party that ended up killing I think 2 girls, I believe, and hospitalizing like a dozen people. The punch at this house party, not far from where he lived (I grew up at same house he did, and walked by this house almost everyday) got spiked with PCP. He liked the taste of sweet things, much like me, we used to say we'd be alcoholics if alcohol and liquor actually tasted good and sweet, which is probably true, but anyway, it was him and mostly girls that got reckt hardcore, because he and the bitches were hitting up the punch bowl.
He didn't go to the hospital. He walked home, fucked as shit, through a bunch of orange clay after it'd rained, almost being hit by a MAC truck he walked in front of and stopped like a deer in the headlights, with the guy laying on the horn, and nearly rolling the truck trying to swerve to avoid him, and threw his boots across the kitchen table when he got home, which his mother had just cleaned, and waxed the floors. He couldn't get out of bed for 3 days. He said it was one time he really thought he was close to dying, and apparently, after finding this all out, he probably was, since he drank more punch than anyone there.
My dad had all sorts of fucked up drug stories he'd told me... The 70's was a great time to do drugs, and be a drug using kid. Wish I coulda been there...The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by What_a_Kreep Thanks for the tip! Sometimes after crystal binges my arms look pretty bad because crystal makes my veins practically disappear. This makes it much harder shoot and usually is more likely to leave a mark rather than if I had been able to hit first try. I wish there was safer and better places to shoot than the arms. When I was hooked on H, I moved from my seemingly veinless arms to my plentiful vein-filled legs. This, was a mistake.
Now, I just stick to the arms and if I can't hit I just take a break and drink some water, come back to it after a bit. Sometimes that's a hard thing to do when tweaking but I've trained myself to show some control & set it down, drink some water, do some pushups, then try again with fresh gear.
I have some good ones on my legs, got some nice ones on my hands. My arms are hard to hit, but I can do it. I found a REALLY nice one on my left arm that runs on the outside from the wrist almost to the elbow I can feel... Nice fat squishy one. My dad helped hit me there a long time ago, but it was always hard for me and I could never do it, but the way this bitch is popping, OMG! I could hit and it'd be easy as fuck, yo.
Since having a baby my veins everywhere have grown larger and easier to hit.... and probably my aneurysm too, but meh... something has to kill me, right? Probably should lay off stims, but... Drug faeries leaving shit in my mail box and shit... fuck yeah.
I'd fucking rape Piles of Crack if he wasn't 450 miles away right now. I really am going to be feelin' froggy when I get this blow... Gorilla fuck isn't even the word.
Anyway, back to the topic at hand, Hydration is key, especially with stims, but still for shooting in general. Also, keeping your blood from being so thick... taking aspirin can fix this. Ive ruined shots and had to backload for clogging needles before. That's a fucking bitch.
Untie the tourniquet before shooting... some people can get away with this, but for me it causes more to blow. I got away sometimes, but untying helps, but sometimes you lose the vein too from moving around to untie.
Well, hope this keeps ya safe. Also, easiest ways Ive found to buy the shit from was an equine veterinarian. They'd sell me tubes of the shit... just go in and say you gotta horse that tore their face up with barb wire or something... I've never had a problem...

Yes, he was, as he described to you, was how he described to me. His old username on oklet was KippoHippo or some shit.
I've also been told I look middle eastern, much more than §m£ÂgØL might. There was actually a time when I was profiled by someone on the BART (mass transit train system) in plain clothes. I don't know what their occupational title is, but terrorists are a concern here, especially on the BART.

Originally posted by 霍比特人 You look like a deflated michelin man. Don't talk to me about looks.
Talk about looks? LMFAO, look who's salty here, now. Angry much? Sure seems like it then your project that onto me, accusing me of it, when I in fact am not, even in the slightest.
I don't hold grudges, stay angry or upset and carry that around with me. I know yo do and you have this chip on your shoulder because I talk about my past, or shit that happened between us here, or I joke, like I did about the middle eastern thing, which truly, you could pass for middle eastern. You took that as me being insulting, when it was not. I always thought you looked very handsome, before you started working out even. You, like me have very low self-esteem. I have never, in my life insulted your looks before or said anything negative like that. You have to me many times, then would tell me I was beautiful and attractive, and then you'd be more than happy to stick your dick in me or even manipulate me into sending you pictures/videos to beat off to.
I know I am not beautiful. I am not attractive at all. Not from my eyes, at least, but I do have enough people hit on me regularly that somehow in society, I am at least very fuckable. I don't let my body image get me down as much as it used to, but still... you and your low shots, §m£ÂgØL... You have no honor, and one day it'll catch up to you.
You're an attractive man, and always have been so from the first time I ever met you, but you're an ugly person inside. I'd rather be a deflated Michelin Man (or inflated for that matter) than who you are inside. I at least have honor, respect for others, and am an honest person. You are none of those things. You're not a man, you're an man-child, and that is the truth, and deep down you know this, but you'll pretend you're your own man living at home with your family taking care of everything for you, paying for everything, having you leech off them for some dub feeling they're obligated to take care of their "special" child for the rest of their lives, while you just... treat everything like they'll always be there, be a place to stay, get food, get shelter from and that this is why you have "family" but you can't even talk to them, nor can they to you... when a problem arises, you're scared to talk to them for what they did to you as a teen when they found your weed, and sent you to fucking rehab lol... They didn't want that embarrassment, just like the hitchhiking thing. You will always be the embarrassment they have to hide from everyone else. Your parents love you and are only unconditionally loving you like you do them because of some distorted sense it's proper, and a fantasy that they truly are there for you... they're there for you to hide embarrassment, and because youre their child... not because they love you or would ever love you if you were not their child, and the same is in turn with your love of them and it's hilarious to me now.
Just goes to show how petty you are, and how low you sink, and how paranoid you are, assuming me saying you look middle eastern equates to some slight on your physical appearance. You're retarded, and an autistic schizophrenic, but go ahead, and consider that a slight too, when it's meant only to be the truth from what Ive seen.
Originally posted by Piles of Crack You don't want to see hydro's mom.
This. Sorry, you had to see that but I wanted you to understand what I had to see all fucking day... She's a toothless crack-whore, like for real...
Originally posted by 霍比特人 Yeah, I made a joke post on Zoklet when I was 18. One post. They came to my house and did the whole good cop/bad cop routine and saw I was harmless then fucked off. One interesting bit is that they wanted to look through my books.
You can pass as middle eastern, §m£ÂgØL. Sorry, but... You can... Sorry it bothers you that you do have that complexion and yes the beard helps some, but no, it's not what I was referring to... even without it, and it being short, you can pass for middle eastern.
They read the Zoklet post off to my parents. I remember hearing my brother laugh in the background because he thought it was hilarious. It was nice hearing secret service agents say 'nigger.'
I don't look at all Middle Eastern. Anybody who's seen me can attest to that. For a while a friend called me a terrorist because I had grown out my beard, but I keep my facial hair short now. But that's probably what hydro is trying to play on. It's very obviously a hispanic beard and the only races I have ever been mistaken for were white and once, Korean.
Originally posted by 霍比特人 Yee I lost lots of weight though. Started working out and eating healthy. Stopped drinking.
You also had body dysmorphia badly and even denied that, when it was fucking clear as day you had this... Along with being a paranoid, raging schizo.
Originally posted by What_a_Kreep Damn it's hot af in my city today. I feel my skin burning as soon as I step out the front door. It's even hotter when you're forced to wear long sleeves to cover up those fun but probably not so smart life decisions that happened over the weekend. At least it's only for a few days and not the entire summer like when I used to do H. I'm so glad I'm not a daily H shooter anymore. Looking back I don't even know why I kept up with it, I only felt satisfaction for a fraction amount of the time, besides those short lasted moments, life was pretty sucky. Not being able to find a vein, dealing with sketchy middlemen, trying to go to class & work while being sick. Thank god for suboxone, gabapentin, and Crouton. (wish i could stills core gabapentin).
A little bit of clear here and there isn't as damning as some might think. Wish I could go back to smoking it but that's not gonna happen. Why waste time in the clouds, when you could get straight to the point?
Hope everyone had a great weekend! Life isn't so bad, I think I'm pretty happy. (Let's hope I feel the same when my sack is empty & I'm feeling crappy).
Glad shit is good for you. It's miserably hot here too, and I still don't have AC where I'm at... Kill me now...
Shit being illegal makes this the problem for so many reasons. I want to live in a world where the War on Drugs is non-existent and that would be ideal, I think.
I like meth from time to time too. Still like my opiates, and am currently on T-PAIN, but don't shoot it because of the obvious issues it can cause doing that (1337 really took one for the team and saved me from this becoming me... anyone who shoots it now is an idiot since there's so much about how bad shooting it is.), and well... Orally, it works for my purposes thankfully.
Sucks being physically dependent, but sucks worse to have chronic pain everyday that makes life have zero quality too... So, I'm in a catch 22 here...
Hope life continues to go well for you, and you have many more happy days ahead.
Originally posted by What_a_Kreep Well, actually, I would say I got MYSELF addicted. He wasn't holding a gun to my head or anything, I make my own choices. He was however, the first person to ever shoot me up. Before that I had never shot anything. I'd mainly smoked/snorted crystal and tried smoking H a few times. The times I had tried smoking H were pretty random, I never had bought it but I'd be with someone who was smoking it and they'd offer me a hit. I wasn't too impressed but it helped mellow out my crystal. Needless to say, when I tried H the way you're supposed to do it, it was much better than I had experienced before. I remember it took me a while to get hooked though. I was used to uppers so the first few times shooting H, I thought it was too much and just fell asleep a lot of times. After building a slight tolerance was when I grew to love it. It replaced all other substances and became #1.
I really respect you taking responsibility for your own actions. That shows character, backbone, and deserves respect. Don't blame others, drugs, or punt your problems off on others. Only people we can blame is ourselves when we do stupid, or bad things.
You could perceive it that way, sure. But I am not going to put the blame on another person for something I chose to do & continued to choose to do.
He also was the one that was there for me when we decided to quit. He was able to score the suboxone, I was able to get the gabapentin. It helps having someone there for you when you're going through something as rough as quitting heroin. It wasn't easy, it took a lot out of me, but eventually, I was able to quit shooting H. And, I hope that I never go back. Like the popular saying goes, "I know I have another relapse in me, but I don't know if I have another recovery left in me."

I have this feeling that my father DID at some points have bad anxiety, but never grew to really, really, understand it... it just became normal for him, normal to suppress, and conceal.
One of the earliest memories I have was my father telling me "You're either predator or prey, sweetie". When you walk abut in the world, you'll see the sheep, and you'll see the predators eyeing up the next mark. So many people just operate their entire lives on fucking over people, taking advantage of such. I wonder sometimes, if those folks even realize it, and if they ever did, would they change.
I carry myself much differently in the world that how I feel inside. I present myself much differently than I am, and sometimes I feel like a fraud. I hate being like that. I hate giving a fuck, when I honestly don't. I hate talking to people... most people, anyway. My biggest problem with the majority of people is their ulterior motives. The disingenuous attitudes of people. People who are so far separated from themselves next to any other living thing, they have no ability to relate or see themselves as anything but themselves. For me, I feel way too trapped on the other end of this, where my relating to everyone around me has this painful contact with others, because I empathize so god damned much it hurts.
Also, fuck people who have maggots literally crawling on their legs that are like raw fucking meat, and who bitch about windows and doors being open "allowing in flies" and fucking refuse to have any sort of air conditioning. Yep... you had maggots long before I left the door open to carry in groceries.... but somehow you're gonna blame this isolated incident on why there are flies in the house, despite there always being flies in the house, mainly because you smell like death and have weeping, infected, maggot infested legs... stop "thinking" about amputation, it's been fucking 15 years... just fucking do it already.
...AND GOD FUCKING DAMN ANYONE WHO SHITS ON THEIR BATHROOM FLOOR AND DOESN'T EITHER CLEAN IT UP OR FUCKING TELL ME WHEN IT HAPPENS! I SWEAR TO GOD I'M GOING TO START SHOOTING PEOPLE! same goes for dragging trash through the house when these fucking people get drunk, then having nurses and therapists over and looking at me like "IDK why she didn't clean it up" when I fucking don't even know that happened for fucks fucking sake... I fucking hate being empathetic.

Originally posted by Malice Nigger, I was planning on making a thorough guide on how to acquire Nardil but after making a post on a basic and critical mistake most people make you responded "Please stop giving me advice."
I swear I'm going to contact Hydro directly, send it to her, and have her force you to follow it, to practice it with her roleplaying as the psychiatrist, and then make you actually go through with it.
If I was your father I would have the overwhelming urge to beat some sense into you, but even that wouldn't work and would just make things worse because you're so damn oversensitive.
BTW, I'm not sure if you ever saw me mention this, but you don't even have to follow a diet on MAOIs at all anymore. There's an incredibly simple method for this, all you have to do is take this or nortriptyline, which you can get cheaply and easily from online pharmacies: https://www.reddit.com/r/DrugNerds/comments/6ck29m/reboxetine_prevents_the_maoiinduced_increase_in/?st=j4j8kp5o&sh=54524bf0
Well, keep wallowing in your misery. After 3 years of suicidal depression following a severe mental breakdown I'm finally in remission. I tried so many countless substances and techniques (You probably remember my extreme autistic obsession, the walls of text I would constantly write): https://www.reddit.com/r/Nootropics/comments/372xw0/whats_the_largest_most_effective_combination_of/crjasso/?st=j4j8n657&sh=f10f9746
and after all those failures my research finally led me to the true solution, and when I finally acquired it (Did it twice on the first try with two psychs, despite my insane isolation, lack of social skills, and literal autsim) I was proven right. Zero side effects or food interactions. Nothing like anything you've tried before.

Dude, he keeps saying the same shit to me, so don't feel bad. Soon enough we'll get that shit straight. We WILL find a better shrink than he's dealing with, even if I have to use my medicaid to get the shit for him (fuck, I've done that enough for legit faggots, I can do it for someone who really needs and deserves it). Please send me over any info that may prove valuable. It might take me a while, but you gotta at least give me credit, Mal, I always do come around you your advice, and yeah... it's always been right.
We're gonna work on getting nardil, but for the time being, T-PAIN sulfate is probably gonna be the ticket for now. I don't think benzos should be at play here though... and this drinking everyday shit has to stop, seriously...
fuck your mother, PoC. You might have mental problems, just like me, but people like her are really bad for people like us. I wanted to bith slap her every time she said about you, or someone, or something being "stupid".
It's not often people piss me off to this degree, but your mother certainly takes the cake here.
