Drug Etiquette

I do not condone or otherwise endorse the use of drugs. I will not, however, pretend that drug use does not happen or that it cannot happen responsibly. There is also etiquette for people who use drugs to follow. For the most part I think if you should chose to use drugs these things are important to keep in mind. In some cases, the result of not following these simple guidlines can be death or lead to an arrest. This will help you make connections and keep them on good terms and if you do choose to do drugs (again, not reccomened) will help in avoiding any unfortunate mishaps.

- Be careful what you take, and where it comes from. Take some time to get to know everything you possibly can about what you're taking before you take it. This is a life or death thing.
- If you're with someone else and decide to light up, offer them some. Maybe offer a joint, a puff, whatever you can but do not just sit there and light up and expect them to watch; offer even if you know it will be a no. Also, be sure you offer only ONCE; no means no and to pressure someone because you don't feel like getting high alone is totally rude and uncool; if you're that big of a loser don't do anything at all. If you don't have enough to share, don't say anything at all.
- Be respectful of your clean friends requests. If someone tells you they do not appreciate you smoking or whatever around them respect that. First, you don't know everything about anyone (even if they've been your best friend since second grade) and maybe they've had problems in the past; or maybe they just don't want to deal with it, whatever it is respect it.
- When you go to get your stuff, don't bring people with you. Come alone. End of story. It's totally rude to bring people with you pick things up, if for some reason you must bring someone with you call your dealer ahead of time and let them know about this; if they say not to come by to get it with them either lose the extra wheel or skip picking up your stash; as a dealer that's thir right and has to do with their comfort level.
- Never tell anyone who your dealer is or where they can be found/reached. If you want to refer someone to your dealer, discuss this with your dealer first. Again, no means no.
- If you're a dealer; DEAL OUT OF YOUR OWN HOME! Dealing on the streets seriously destorys neighbourhoods.
- Dealers, never sell to someone who's already on something or if you know they have intentions of offing themself. This also goes for if you know they're an addict and trying to get clean. Don't do it.
- If you deal or use, don't talk about it. Sometimes it is a topic of conversation but this shouldn't be talked about everyday or with everyone. These things are illegal and you opening your mouth can have serious repercussions upon you, your family, friends, and connections.
- Watch out for your friends. If they're high or otherwise messed up, or addicted or whatever, get them help. Take them to a hospital, call 911, but do SOMETHING.

And that concludes the drug etiquette I can think of at the moment. Please use drugs responsibly, and follow these simple guidelines to make life smoother and easier.
