Recreational Drugs - The Bear and Badger

metascrawl

Do you have a medicine cabinet Yoss? I've never had one. I've always wanted to open one, poor out a handful of Vicodin, dry swallow them, and then shut the cabinet and stare at myself in the mirror while leaning with both hands on the sink, a look of quiet desperation and self-disgust in my in my eyes.

The camera is positioned, inside the cabinet obviously, at first focused on the pill bottle in immediate foreground, but then the focus switches to my face when I reach in to grab it.

Yossarian

Yeah I do. No Vicodin, though.

Tempy

you might be a little obsessed with drugs maybe

Dark Soldier

First the cat thing, now Yoss is injecting Vicodin inbetween his toes.

In the next scene I'm sitting in an office cubicle, with someone, presumably my boss, talking to me angrily, but the sound is too muted for the viewer to hear the words, and there's a high pitched whining sound above that, and I've still got that blank, desperate look on my face.

I'm more obsessed with films and books and songs about drugs than the drugs themselves. That obviously does spill over somewhat into my actual life, but if I took drugs as much as I thought about them I'd be long dead. And most of the drugs I did in the past such as MDMA, speed and acid I stopped taking a long time ago and have no interest in taking any more. My memories of those experiences are enough, I don't feel any need to repeat them.

I have some vicodin in the cupboard above the oven.

Are you sure those aren't dishwasher tablets?

Drug song lyric o' the day comes, as promised, from the Sister Ray by the Velvets.

Doug and Sally inside
They cooking for the down pipe
Who's staring at Miss Rayon
Who busy licking off her big pig pen
I'm searching for my mainline
I couldn't hit it sideways
I said I couldn't hit it sideways
Ah just like Sister Ray said
Whip it on

I just wouldn't be messing with that hard water at all. Soft water's one thing, everyone has a bit of soft water from time to time, it's, like, normal, yeah? But that hard water can fuck up people's lives, I've seen it happen, man.

You need to do the soap test first.

Problem is that soft water can act as a gateway water to the harder stuff. And before you know it you're sitting in a gutter drinking a bottle of sparkling mineral water concealed in brown paper bag. Highland Springs destroys families and ruins lives.

Talking of water...

My drug song lyric o' the day. Something for the Weekend by Super Furry Animals.

I just keep repeating myself,
I just keep repeating myself.
I just keep repeating myself,
I just keep repeating myself.
I just keep repeating myself,
I just keep repeating myself.

metascrawl

^ No one on drugs has ever repeated themselves! Especially not on coke or pills or speed.

FranticPea

That isn't my experience.

Er, well, no. Sarcasm.

Chopping up lines of water takes a lot of skill. Smoking it is quite difficult too.

Rev

The water here is lovely. Come on in.

Kow

Look on yonder misty mountain
See the young monk meditating rhododendron forest
Over dusty years, I ask you
What's it been like being you ?
Through all levels you've been changing
Getting a little bit better no doubt,
The doctor bit was so far out.
Looking through crystal spectacles,
I can see I had your fun.
Doing us paperback reader
Made the teacher suspicious about insanity,
Fingers always touching girl.
Through all levels you've been changing
Getting a little bit better no doubt,
The doctor bit was so far out.
Looking through all kinds of windows
I can see I had your fun.
Looking through all kinds of windows
I can see I had your fun.
Looking through crystal spectacles
I can see I had your fun.
Looking through crystal spectacles
I can see I had your fun.
Rebelling against society,
Such a tiny speculating whether to be a hip or
Skip along quite merrily.
Through all levels you've been changing
Elevator in the brain hotel
Broken down a-just as well-a
Looking through crystal spectacles,
Ah, I can see I had your fun.
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum

Kow

Dum dum dum, indeed.

Yossarian

Dammit, Rev, I told you to stay away from the water, I knew you wouldn't be able to have just one glass.

g.man

Think Kow's been on the cheese again.

FranticPea

I've never tried dum dum.

Rev

And now im soaking. Then ill start to dry off and lets face it. I'm just not gonna smell nice.

metascrawl

The best water is that hydroponic stuff. It gets dried, compressed into bricks and shipped over from Columbia.

Rev

That's not water. That's obviously drugs.

Rev

You can't dry water and compress it.

Yossarian

Have you ever tried?

Howdy, Stranger!
