For full features; Go to DONT DO DRUGS: A personal experience from tonight
So me and my friend Serge went to the Great American Cafe for a friend's
birthday party. We decided to go play pool at the spot afterwards, and we
wanted to stay until close time. A guy who was with us said he was tired,
and so was Serg so we decided to head out. Serg said "yo im gona go to the
bathroom really quick". He comes out and says "yo dude theres some guy in
there passed out" I look in and sure enough there is a dude on the floor
out of it. We go to the front desk and I tell the guy working there "yo
theres some dude passed out in the bathroom" (i thought he was just
wasted). Then Serg comes up behind me and says "theres a needle in his
hand". I didnt see it at first so I ran back, and sure enough there is a
needle in his hand, and now that I got a closer look, the guy is almost
completely pale, but still breathing a bit. I run back to the front desk
and call 911 for an ambulance. Meantime while they are coming me and the 3
other guys I was with are in the bathroom snapping our fingers at him
trying to wake him up, and periodically, he was kinda shaking and making a
loud snore noise, and then stopped breathing for 10 seconds, and started
again. A guy that came in to use the bathroom (not one of ours) jumped in
the stall, opened the door and pulled him out to turn him on his side so he
wouldnt choke if he threw up. We find the 2 other people who were playing
with him and tell them "yo your friend is in the bathroom out of it with a
needle in his arm" and all the guy says "thats not my problem, its all on
him" (great friend right). The ambulance finally comes and takes him away
at this point he was still stiff as a corpse but had some movements to him.
They asked us if we knew if he was diabetic (it could have been insulin
too), took down our information and said thanks. Point of the story is,
dont **** with that ****. I dont know what it was (heroin or insulin or
what) but the fact remains that I almost saw someone die tonight, and
despite all of the stories I have heard about that ****, nothing gives you
a bigger shock than seeing it in person. One guy we were with was just
crouched down outside of the bathroom with a cigarette in his hand and
looked like he was about to cry. I know most of you here are smart enough
not to tangle with **** like that, but just wanted to share...man I wont
sleep tonight for sure.

Yo, dude, do you actually talk like that?
So I was totally about to do some heroin, but your story has saved me. I
thank you.

Being as you're Canuckian, you may not be fully aware of language dialects
and nuances down here in the lower 48. Since you are generally a good guy,
and you promised to send me a case of Moosehead every time I help you out,
here is your American language lesson for today.
Yo
1) Substitution for "Greetings!"
2) Dyslexic Rabbi speak
3) Filler-speech when a need to look "gangsta" is at hand
4) Half of a "Yo-yo"
5) A word that died a horrible death in 1993 but still manages to haunt us
through usage by white kids in nice neighborhoods who by some strange
dementia think they are from the projects. You poor unfortunate soul.
Example;
Yo, lookit me, I’m hardcore gangster. One day I’m playin' in the front yard
in my striped t shirt beating the dog wid a stick and the next day I’m out
sellin' weed pimpin' my Civic while blastin' Lil Wayne. I'm real tough and
straight from the hood, Yo.
That is all. Have a nice day.
vwhobo
:laughing:
GreekWarrior
Yes it would have been much better for me to say "excuse me sir, there is a
young male in the lavatory. he seems to not be concious and he has some
sort of a syringe in his hand, perhaps to do drugs."
what are you a ****ing idiot??
newyorker
I can't remember the last time I've said "yo"..Or "yo-yo" for that matter.
I'll use either "hey" or "hey dude" lol.
Back on topic.
I've never touched anything stronger than weed (tried it once, didn't
particularly like it). It doesn't really make much sense why you would do
drugs either. I have/had a friend who pretty much ruined his life with
drugs. He just came back to school (after skipping for 6 weeks), and
doesn't really stand a chance at passing.
The worst thing about the guy that you're talking about is that he probably
hasn't learned a thing from this, and will most likely continue doing
drugs.
I know what it feels like to see a guy like that. Just this summer I saw
something similar happen to a friend (excepts that he was drunk). It
happens around 4:30 in the morning, and by this time, most of the alcohol
is gone. He's wasted by this time, and punches someone for no good reason.
Another person grabs a bottle of alcohol (vodka?) and gets him soaked. So
now, the two of them are yelling at each other, and everyone is holding
them back. The guy that threw the first punch breaks free (he's probably
about 200lbs, and he's being held back by 5 people). He falls once, gets
up, and continues running. He trips again, and hits his head on the
concrete (Nobody's really sure if he tripped or if someone punched him,
because the next day, there was a mark on his cheek, which looked very
similar to brass knuckles. Nobody saw the punch though, so it might be from
some pebbles on the road or something). The next two minutes were the
scariest of my life. He's still breathing, but not moving. There's about 5
people trying to call an ambulance (this was in Bulgaria), and nobody picks
up the phone. Finally, after what seemed like forever, he starts moving.
After a couple of minutes, a couple of people moved him to a nearby bench.
Fortunately, he was okay. This one girl had a panic attack, and wouldn't
stop hyperventilating for probably close to half an hour after it.
Also, tbaxleyjr, pardon my naivety, but what's so funny about a guy almost
dying? lol
chris_knows
Ha laughed my ass off. Thanks Hobo have a good Turkey Day!
As for the story... who writes like that?
Voda48
Crazy shit chris...but yea, due to me and my friend's quick thinking and
care for a complete stranger (who's friends just left him to die), this kid
might actually live instead of dying in the bathroom, and the best you can
do is nitpick my word use. Ive got somethin....**** you, yo!
newyorker
all well and good to help him out, but you really have a deluded sense of
your own worth don't you.
what did you want .... a mickey mouse badge?
windsonian
no but the proper thing to do especially in a situation like this is to
shut the **** up if you have nothing worthwhile to say
newyorker
can i quote you on that at other times?
windsonian
That would also have been poor english. You can't even fake it...
Try "It seems he is unconscious" college boy...
Mathew
I'm sure you mean unconscious... :wink2:
Nissan_Altima
Thats what I said....:doh:
Mathew
word to your grandma, yo...:laughing: :laughing:
dodger65
Yo check it lol. Anyways the only drugs I've done are the good ol herb and
some mushrooms. Haven't touched shrooms in a long while but it's a pretty
trippy thing to be on and as for weed well I just sat and laughed and ate.
That was the jist of it for me.
Spanky2324
if sex is a drug then I'm an addict
GreekWarrior
You're not impressing anyone...
Mathew
Sex is a great drug, because it's free. Too bad I can't find where to get
any :laughing:.
chris_knows
Wrong you are. He's impressing himself.
vwhobo
very funny :clap:
knsin0
Speaking of drugs, look at this.

I bought this from a guy on blind faith...but look at this shit. Seeds and
shit...dry and shit.
What
Is
Up
With
That
This is not good weed. I haven't smoked it yet, but LOOK AT IT. Low
quality southern bullshit.
Let this be a lesson to you. The lesson is that you are still a child.
The situation you just described?...Devestating? Life changing? Dude, you
haven't experienced shit. I've seen dead people, rapes, people beat to a
coma, over-doses, over-doses, over-doses, people get shot...and die. I've
been shot my damn self. Let this be a lesson that we have been where you
haven't been, so when we give you advice listen.
I think this has been mentioned before, but take the oppurtunity to learn
something faster than we learned it. You're too late to beat my learning
curve, but you beat out some others I'm sure. Don't just apply this to
this forum because this forum community isn't real.
But know this...I have 82% of the answers to life. It doesn't hurt to ask.
I am an asset.
What
Why would you buy that? It doesn't even look like weed lol. Also, are you
still drinking that Jack Daniels? lol.
Haven't you heard what the Federal Bureau of Narcotics says about weed?
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2d/Killerdrug.jpg
chris_knows
I didn't see it before I bought it. I gave him the money, he made a call,
someone else gave the product to a friend of mine. We never know, it might
be the best weed I've ever had.
And no, that is not the same Jack Daniels. I finished that other bottle
the same night you saw it.
What
Why is it that a man can't talk about an experience with his life that is
rather "daring" without getting accused of trying to "impress". Who the
f#ck is impressed by this? With all the positive and impressive shit going
on in my life, do you think I give a f*ck about some marijuana?
Who am I? I'm not you. I'm me...so f*ck you. You're not me.
What
pwned
newyorker
you apparently care enough to post a pic... why did you bother doing that
if you care so little?:doh:
dodger65
You damn kid-logic-havin' son of a bitch. Don't....DON'T twist what I
"care" about.
I'm a visual person and I CARE about good communication...that's why I post
pics. I always post pics if possible. Visuals enhance communication.
I DON'T CARE about impressing you. I DON'T CARE about impressing you. I.
DON'T. CARE. ABOUT. IMPRESSING. YOU. Especially not with some f*ckin'
drugs. All the impressive shit in my life...weed?
Shut up. I post pictures for communication.
What
You couldn't impress me if you posted a pic of yourself in a white jacket
performing a heart transplant. You're such a b*tch. Piece of sh*t weed and
a half-full "no...no...no...it's not THAT one...I drank THAT one a LONG
time ago" bottle of Jack Daniels. Drinking like a b*tch too.
Nissan_Altima
probbably not even weed...might be oregano
newyorker
Stop posting such useless bullshit. 99% of your latest posts are just
attacking other people. We get the picture, you think What is a bitch. No
need to constantly say it.
dodgerforlife
so why are you even talking about it? we don't really give a shit about it,
so why are you even bothering to talk about it? much less post pics? i had
some french fries that weren't up to par last night, but i'm not posting
them up on this thread... WHAT MAKES YOU THINK WE GIVE A SHIT?
dodger65
I'm sorry you find my posts useless. Wait...no...I'm not. I don't care what
you think. Don't like my posts? Don't read them.
Companies are getting even smarter now. Firstly, expect major hirings to
check all of your online information; ie: facebook, myspace, forums, etc.
Secondly, if a company does a fat test or a hair follicle test, any
marijuana smoker is screwed as it will show up in your system for months.
This is especially something to think if you are interviewing for a job.
Furthermore, the amount of marijuana he has in that picture is enough to
charge. Meaning, amongst other legal actions, no school financial aid
(although he's already done that), no government job, etc, etc, etc.
Nissan_Altima
yes but thats not weed...thats oregano...hes just trying to impress us
newyorker
It's far easier to find things that are way less legal on the internet.
Plus, if some cops really did care, I doubt anyone would go through with a
search warrant knowing that they won't find any more than a bag of weed.
Now, if somebody were to perform a hit and run and talk about it online...
giant016
:laughing:
chris_knows
Why, who would do such an stupid thing as that?
Mathew
3 guesses...
dodger65
probably because of the thousands of responses.... sorry, but it's true...
windsonian
hmmmmm...I know, vwhobo! :laughing:
jedimario
Just in case anyone was wondering, these are the pictures that got her
fired:

Very revealing? Not in my opinion. I'm willing to bet ST would post a more
revealing skirt picture on this forum in response to a request in a
heartbeat.
Nissan_Altima
I remember that story...I think there's a big difference between doing
something at your venue of choice on your own time and doing something at
the workplace and (possibly, do flight attendants go on airplanes in
uniform off the clock?) on the clock.
It's not like she went home and took some pictures in her own clothes, she
did it in the company's uniform. That essentially opens her pictures up to
being viewed as what the company is about....ect ect ect, do I need to go
on?
jedimario
Honestly, I'd worry more about what tie to wear to an interview than
something like that. Unless your applying for really high position, I
doubt that a company is going to do a thorough enough backround check on
you to find out your screen names on forums, and read all of your posts.
Myspace and facebook are a decent bet, but C-F?
There are a some people here with computer skills and a lot of time on
there hands. I challenge you to find my full name (mods don't count, if I
did give my personal info to the site).
UPDATE: Chris got it (not the Mike part, but through PM).
giant016
You type like a Mike. How many Mikes could possible live in Massachusetts?
lol
chris_knows
You warning me on some shit I warned you about months ago...
Yeah, I said that...I'm aware...but check this...
I'm not applying to be a Verizon manager or a Peter Mayer employee...and
I'm not entry level either. If you think these folks give a hoot about
what I do on the internet then you don't know the engineering industry.
These are million/billion dollar companies I'm applying for who care about
RESULTS, not PR. These are not "people" persons...I work with assholes.
I'm not straight out of college, so I've built a professional history big
enough for any future employee to not have to resort to silly background
checks. My big fat resume and my bigger fatter references stump out any
flames my "personal life" may have. I'm proven in battle, no need to
research me.
I'm un-searchable anyway. Google "What" and see what you get. Google my
name and all you'll get is some old football articles.
The whole myspace-facebook check is over-rated anyway. The only people
really doing that are lower level assholes without enough responsibility
who are looking for reasons to hold someone back.
Drug test? What's that?
What
