I mean even for my generation doing drugs was only something losers who wanted to drop out did
There's "doing drugs" and "doing drugs".
Weed and alcohol were omnipresent in my school, and almost all of my old class have a university degree today.
Especially during the late teens/early twenties, a lot of my peers experimented with MDMA, speed or LSD. Most of them are well adjusted adults now.
These statistics are not about heroin or crack.
Wow you sound fun bet you only fuck for reproduction.
No, I'm speaking from the opposite perspective here but Lemmy is Lemmy so everyone's jumping to conclusions
My bad you dropped this "/s"
Or non of your friends told you because you where know for being straightedged ;)
Weird, in my generation (young millenial) and area (opiate ravaged rust belt) the losers did heroin, a ton of college bound kids smoked pot and drank occasionally, and the potheads dropped out of college to join the coast guard which was kinda weird considering how far we were from the coast
Are we guarding the coast or is the coast guarding us, man?
