nubbins`: except abstract analogies that don't make sense
mircea_popescu: cause she's gots to be speshul and couldn't possibly be ever fit by a shoe
mircea_popescu: nubbins` except the shoe fits fine and the princess is having a hysteria session
nubbins`: after all, if the shoe doesn't fit, it's because of libtards encouraging kids to grow their feet

mircea_popescu: and wantboy shouldn't have to eat the peas
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids no no we must have fucktarded 5yo arguments about how the peas aren't really peas

nubbins`: ah, so kills 100% of time, ok
nubbins`: in realworld land too
mircea_popescu: not that many substances presented as addictive actually are in any sense.
nubbins`: so, booze fits the definition
nubbins`: much harder to take away once given
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the list : to be an addictive substance something needs to actually give addiction
nubbins`: sure, but you take away that 900 and food stamps and housing tomorrow and the city would burn to the ground in a week
mircea_popescu: so no, don't be telling me about how shit functions and doesn't.
mircea_popescu: people making 900 a month in food stamps and free housing over there hang around the cortners glaring at passer bys

mircea_popescu: go outside the little park in their projects to FIX THE BENCHES

mircea_popescu: nubbins` pretty much heroin is the only entry on my list of "drugs"
KRS-One: oxycodone is great anytime of the day or week.
KRS-One: nubbins` alcohol is way worse than pot..you can't overdose on da ganja either
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: who's to stop her?
nubbins`: you should not be allowed to smoke pot unless you are in a hospital
mircea_popescu: nobody said she can drive a car drunk any more than she can have oxycodone outpatient style.
nubbins`: KRS-One, but drugs tough etc
KRS-One: nubbins` I think pot is the best pain killer that isnt made in a lab
mircea_popescu: nubbins` if that;s what she does good for her.

mircea_popescu: supposedly tooth pain is way up there on the scale.
nubbins`: anyway, as lovely as this little "kill everyone" scheme sounds
