Title: The goodness of Silk Road
Post by: biscuit on September 23, 2011, 01:30 am
Today I was in need of some drug paraphernalia so I decided to head to the nearest Head Shop. Its in a not so nice part of town, when I was younger Id go to that area and score drugs in a shady, did I say shady sort of way

Anyways, I give the girl behind the counter, did I mention that this girl had a gnarly scab on her forhead, I give her 20 bucks for a 3 dolla item.  2 dollars change she gives me without batting an eye

Um excuse me, give me my change, she grudgingly goes back into the register and digs out my change.

All the while some scumy dude customer pressing up behind me, in line, asks her something stupid, I leave, he leaves

"Hey man, whats you got for sale in the market" he says with a missing tooth greesy rip you off junky smile
"Im looking for some crystal"

I say, "Im just selling jewelry" and walk off

So glad I dont have to go through that world anymore to get to what I want, the people who will rip you off, the beaten up stepped on scum

Thanx to the goodness of SilkRoad

Indeed. The worst you can get here is your time wasted (unless you go OOE).

This is extremely well said.  The next major transformation of Silk Road will occur when middle aged people discover it.  Face it, nobody realizes on day that the stuff that they have enjoyed for years suddenly sucks.  No, you wake up one day, suddenly old, and lack the access to young people who have access to what you want.  Silk Road is fucking paradise, amd I don't care what the prices are, it keeps me from having to go to "that part of town"

+1 for being very true about the middle aged people

Its a beautiful thing when u can order drugs online like any other merchandise. No need to rely on any Inconsistent Dealers.

Are head shops actually that bad for you?  I have head shops all over my city and most of them are quite clean and and nice.  Not grimy at all, if I was asking for drugs in one of them I would for sure be kicked out.

QFT If I go into a headshop and I ask for the bongs, they'll ask me to leave. I have to call them "glass pipes"

Yeah here the headshops are for middle to upper class white college kids with money.  I would expect that the shop described here doesn't sell $400 Roor bongs and Volcanoes.

Biscuit I like your post and your story!! I had totally different problems before SR though.

My problem is that 1) I live in the suburbs, 2) I don't have any friends  :'(.....  3) I have social phobia. 4) I'm a closet junkie with no drugs and I hadn't had any of the hardcore drugs in 5 years.

Then I found SR and thanks to SR, I have properly medicated myself with xanax. Now I am able to approach co-workers with a smile and ask them, "HEY man, YOU DO DRUGS? YOU know anyone that sells METH??? HEROIN dawg? you like HEROIN?". They think I'm joking - but i study their reactions to my question, hoping to find a closet junkie like me. Someone who has a stable life but secretly wants drugs ALL the TIME (and being responsible about it). But I ended up telling my "joke" to too many people... and no one gave me that suspicious grin I was looking for (that guilty, "IM ON DRUGS RIGHT NOW, but you can't tell hhaha" grin)

I'm alone with my drugs. I'm happy but I still needed a drug buddy. I still had hope.

The guy next door is always asking me, "yo when are we gonna hit up the weed?" So last weekend I was like, "ok here's the plan, we're giong to listen to music, smoke some weed, drink some vodka, freebase a couple ritalins, pop a xanax, then the main event's gonna be CRACK COCAINE!!" He looks at me in horror like I had just confessed to some heinous crime??? what??

"nah, I'm good with just the weed"

How dare him! If someone had offered me a banquet of illegal DRUGS I would have been like, "Leeeeeeeeeeeet's get readyyyy to RUuuuuuuumbleeeeeeeeee".

so now my problems are 1) I live in the suburbs, 2) I don't have any friends that want to do tons of drugs  :'( 3) everyone knows that I do drugs now  :'(

on a positive note, at least Silk Road solved one of my problems.

I'd assume you're a white collar worker, if so there are tons of people who enjoy the weekends a little harder and still work white collar jobs.... just gotta look man  :)

Yeah, that's the shitty part of getting older.
I still have a few core friends that I can hang with, without looking like a bunch of hippies.
We're closet hippies, hidden within your perfect society...
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

Seriously though.  It's hard to make new friends when you're worried about their affiliations.  I'm a father, and I know another father who moved here a couple years back.  I KNOW he wants to be friends with me, but because of his job, and the fact that he's 10 years older than me, it makes me leery.

Is he going to freak out and tell all the neighbors I'm a pothead?
Will he tell my employers?
It's safer for me to walk by his house and wave on occasion, and avoid him whenever possible.
That's the sad fact of prohibition... it's not drugs that make us antisocial, it's the fucking FEAR.
Damned LE cracking down on weirdos making obscene hand gestures at lamposts and such.
Let us trip balls in peace.
