The War against Sobriety

[Ben]

We have been deposed, crackwhores and gentlemen.  The gig is up.  We are getting "high".  We are "stoned".  We are "fried" like eggs and bacon.  And yet, the MAINSTREAM, in their war against uniquity, are blasting the potentially dangerous yet potently enlightening substance "drugs" into grayfaced walls; jail; and prison.  What are we to do?  I propose that the most sane thing to do would be a war against sobriety.  Obviously, any living thing that does not depend on a chemical substance for happin3ss must be destroyed.  War the heathens who indulge in this vile, sickening state of sobriety!  Crush their twelve steps under the true and beautiful visions of sane dementias.  Smash their police and politicians into truly polite figments of good-vibe hallucinations.  We, the hippie elite crack-whore drug lord warriors shall emerge victorious and stoned off our asswipes!  Kiss my freedom!

this wrong.

they want you high all the time. on the prescribed mind altering chmeicals which profit the company.

ahppiness is pastel and drab and comes in a green and yellow pill that if you stop taking will make you kill your wife and children.

the consequences are ominous.

[Ben]

I didn't mean the legal drugs that they forcef3ed down your throat!  I'm trying to be rebellious here, Fibslager!

[Horab Fibslager]

replace one vice with another.

addiction is teh new paradigm.

coffee rom-coms and consuem consume consume.  fatigued? agitated? questioning authority? you may be suffering from post media induced axniety disorder. our operators are standing by to prescribe you the necerssary drugs. safe and effective. do not use in conjunction with illegal drugs, obscene readign material or foreign food.

[Ben]

Addiction is not a new paradigm.  The ol' "hooked" cliche has been around since Reagan.  Why not cure it by ramming your head into a concrete wall?  Completely legal!  Proven effective!

[Horab Fibslager]

no that's not legal.

but it's a sure fire way to get prescribed.

youre' right it's not new. redesigned and improved for uber effectivity.

The only difference between the legal and illegal drugs is that
the illegal drugs cost more and the risk/benefit ratio is steeper.
Illegal drugs still come from the man.

I dunno, man.  The stuff I take for my migraines, it is $5 a pill, with insurance, and one of the side effects is death and it doesn't get me high, it is just a vasoconstrictor, one of the triptans.

[East Coast Hustle]

yeah, ask an AIDS patient which is more expensive: the illegal pot he smokes to maintain his appetite, or the AZT he takes to maintain his immune system.

[agent compassion]

It's all relative you know. But regardless of the price per pound, the pot is infinitely less expensive when you factor in side effects....ok, so you spend more on groceries, but still....

...the thing with prescription drugs is that they have side effects so bad that you have to take MORE pills to get rid of the side effects....

I thought that was the point of modern medicine?

Not to that point, thank god, or whoever, and most of this crap, I'll be done with it in a few more years.

You are only calculating the cash costs you know.
