You spend ten minutes in IRC typing a long and in-depth response to something, and finally upon hitting the enter key in self-satisfied triumph you realize they stopped talking about whatever it was 9 minutes ago.

The only difference between the property you're renting and a squat house you stayed at before hand is the squat house had an abandoned elevator shaft for trash.

[Ele'ill]

These have less to do with being a 'tweaker' and more to do with being lazy and bogged down. lol


:crying:

[Blackscare]

Sounds like you could actually use some medical speed. Check out Adderal.


Currently I'm learning Polish and Spanish, as well as HTML, XML, and CSS. I'll probably start on Java in a few months. Speed is awesome.

When looking at rental places the idea of bedbugs becomes a plus because it means an early lease termination is possible at any time.

You know you're a tweaker when you idea of a great friday night is taking a bunch of speed with your 2-3 other politically minded friends and walking around until dawn ranting ceaselessly... in January.

[John "Eh" MacDonald]

...spending all night in a bank kiosk is actually fun.

I don't know what "tweaker" means at your place, but here it's synonymous with being a computergeek. So you know when you're a tweaker when you're worried about the last time you defreag'ed your harddisk ;)

Or Linux version: you know you're a tweaker when the computer does what it is supposed to do and it annoys you, so you go break stuff on purpose just to see how it would react (been there, done that).

Nope that's what happens when I'm on speed and behind a computer.


But I am a geek.

Well, different countries, different ways I guess. We even have Tweakers.net (http://tweakers.net/) as a dedicated computer news website.

tweakers suck.

[Quail]

I'm not sure that I know what a "tweaker" is :confused:

^a methhead or basehead or pretty much anybody who does a lot of uppers.

[Quail]

Oh okay lol.. I'm obviously very innocent when it comes to uppers :blushing:

I'm more of a downer kind of girl anyway.

[9]

it also might just be American slang, idk

[Bright Banana Beard]

Nope, it is probably a Canadian slang.

[John "Eh" MacDonald]

According to a couple forums I frequent it's commonly used in the States, UK, and Canada.

This is also my worst idea for a thread yet.

[Quail]

Well I've never heard it. Maybe it's just my silly East Midlands dialect...

I hope I get to go to NYC this winter. I haven't been there for 5 years and I wish I can really move back.

you clearly don't live in the pac northwest, then :rolleyes:

Being a tweaker really does mean that you're the lowest on the drug abuser totem pole. Well, actually you probably share that spot with crackheads, but it's close.

That's okay. I only abuse alcohol and codeine :):(

Did you also always hear that "tweaker" comes from "two weeks," as in how long people stay up? I've always taken that for granted, but the more I think about it, the more it seems like a "backronym" kind of thing.

More to the point, though: http://www.rxlist.com/desoxyn-drug.htm :blink:

Thanked post

i dont think they are worse than fuckin dope fiends. what a horrible habit

[Blackscare]

This is why I really like to differentiate that I'm a speed freak. I take pharmie amphetamine in the form of generic adderal. Then again, I'm prescribed it, though I use it less consistently (but in larger amounts when I do) than prescribed.

Considering it doesn't have the dissociative effects that partially make meth so bad, nor the intense addiction rates of cocaine, and I actually use it for productive shit, it's quite the difference. But it certainly is my favorite drug of all time. And I am a man that believes in MJ. I don't believe in speed, it's healthy to always remain wary of actual drugs, but hot damn do I love it.


At worse, you really just get the feeling that you're the flame that burns twice as bright, but only half as long.


Naw fuck it I believe in speed.

[synthesis]

i dont think they are worse than fuckin dope fiends. what a horrible habit

Speaking solely on personal experience I would agree, although I've never had any close friends who were really into meth. In retrospect, oxy/heroin addictions are really in a class of their own in terms of leading people to lose my trust and respect, although I don't actually think it was really their fault. Not the addiction itself so much as what they do to feed it.

[Blackscare]

although I don't actually think it was really their fault.

As a former Oxy addict I feel like saying that usually it's the person's fault up to a point. It's hard to just form a habit out of nowhere. Then again, we're usually people that are running from something. It's like throwing a warm blanket over someone who's sitting outside in the cold.


Anyway, as it progresses though you're really just dealing with someone with a disease.


Downers are no bueno.

[synthesis]

Very true. It's hard to say when it's really someone's fault and when it isn't. I mean, I would judge people for stealing from me and telling me just straight-up bald-faced lies when they were fiending, but at a certain point I'm sure it just totally consumes your thought process and if you can't afford professional help then you're just fucked.

When every time you cross the cross walk it's a chance to make it big and those aren't horns they're your fans applauding your success - raw talent and dance 'maneuvers'

[redsky]

Here in Jefferson the term definetely means the users of meth and implies all the lowlife degenerate white trash habits and images associated with that shit substance. As in the case of alleged gov't promotion of crack in ghettos, I sometimes think there is a concerted effort to promote these neo-Opiates in the lumpenproletariate.
