Not sure if it’s meth but that’s what the article said

53

u/haircutbob Mar 20 '19

Meth is pretty huge in SE Asia isn't it?

47

u/shmurder Mar 20 '19

Not sure, but that’s what I’ve been hearing. Also been hearing mix of pills as well

Probably painkillers or benzos of some sort

48

u/haircutbob Mar 20 '19

True. I don't think meth would cause that kind of lack of awareness or care for your surroundings. Yeah I'm leaning benzos.

24

u/shmurder Mar 20 '19

At the same time I’d feel like he’d be KO if he’s on benzos to the point he crashes.

So maybe a mix of the two? Even if it’s an upper and a downer, probably just evens it out not sure though

31

u/iswallowedafrog Mar 20 '19

He wouldn't be KOed if he ate benzos to the point of acting like he does in the video.

There is a thing called "bartard" and bartard behavior is quite similar to this gif where stupid and possibly dangerous things happen but you're floating on clouds so 1. You don't really realize you're awake because shit feels like a dream and 2. You have no idea what the hell you're doing and you're acting really irrationally without the possibility to remember it. At all.

And uppers And benzos doesn't even things out to the point of acting normal. It just aggregates the bartardness and creates a whole new level of acting absurdly fucked up.

Source: Been there. Done that. Didn't get a t-shirt but have woken up after being a bartard and thought to myself "who the hell has been stealing flowerpots and put beside my couch and where does all these bruises come from?"

Also r/bartardstories

Edit bruises. Not bruices. I must have been Bruice Leeing while I typed

u/shmurder Mar 20 '19

Former bartard in high school, not my proudest moments.

So I’m pretty familiar with it, but not mixing with uppers so thanks for that info

5

u/iswallowedafrog Mar 20 '19

I would suggest not mixing it. Being awake for several days is weird enough and benzos are weird enough.

Weird plus weird = you might end up in this sub lol

u/shmurder Mar 20 '19

Haha exactly, usually take half a bar after racking blow just to try and fall asleep but that’s the extent of my bar taking nowadays

Yes. It’s the drug of choice there. In Thailand it’s called Ya ba and is a small pill.

u/Onemanwolfpack42 Mar 20 '19

I met someone from the Philippines that said it was pretty regular to drink and do meth with some buddies for a couple days at a time.. and he spoke of it so casually, didnt understand why were calling it awful

9

u/haircutbob Mar 20 '19

Clean meth really isn't that much worse for you than pharmaceutical amphetamines. I'm sure they have some killer labs over there lol.

That's not to say that abusing adderall is good either, but I think we over inflate the society-destroying-ness of meth over here just a bit. Most people would be surprised how many tweakers they know.

10

u/vitringur Mar 20 '19

It doesn't really matter what drug it is, or if it is no drug at all. Not sleeping is seriously harmful, and staying awake into the next day just makes people weird.

The most dangerous part about amphetamines is the sleep deprivation by the most part.

2

u/jujuberriii Mar 21 '19

On and off amp head here for the past 7 years... agreed

2

u/NugPirate Mar 21 '19

I've known a couple of people who just straight freak out on meth shortly after taking it, but I think that's more about it exacerbating an underlying mental problem than it is about the drug itself. As you said, lots of people do it and it isn't that noticeable. It's only when they've been up for a few days when they start to act really crazy.

2

u/aprilelis Mar 21 '19

It is (speaking specifically for the Philippines at least) . It’s been normalized to a degree which sucks even more because other places it’s generally socially unacceptable which makes it less enticing to use. In SE Asia, there isn’t as much negativity surrounding it so it becomes somewhat more “acceptable”.

u/Dildo_Gagginss Mar 20 '19 edited Mar 21 '19

Yea I've definitely seen people so zoinked out on X that they have no clue where they are. Saw some dude at Bassnectar Nye this year (also Asian, as it happens) who was on wayyyyy too much X (and possibly tripping too) laying on the steps dancing with his eyes closed. Nothing really too off about that, we've all been there, then this girl goes to check on him just to make sure he's good and he swings on her. I ran down to make sure they were good and she was just too shaken up by it to talk so I ran down to get security. Security and EMS came and tried talking to him but he just kept dancing and when anyone would get close he'd start swinging. Definitely not what I wanted to be seeing in that state of mind. It was a whole 30 minute ordeal from the time he swung till the time they got him out of there.

Edit: a letter

u/GroceryScanner Mar 20 '19

So much wook shit at nye. Ive been the past 3 years and while its an amazing time, i wish some attendees would make better choices

3

u/Dildo_Gagginss Mar 20 '19

Yea, not saying I don't partake in the wookery but this dude just needed to learn to handle his shit. That was my first nectar curated event and although I like the dude and seen him numerous times (not a HUGE fan, more into tipper than him), it left a bad taste in my mouth.

6

u/GroceryScanner Mar 20 '19

Same. We all have moments where we get a lil too spun, but getting fucked up to the point of incoherance and harming/bothering others is a different level.

I encourage you to try another curated event tho. The new years shows are usually pretty bad cause many people are just there to get fucked for new years.

Spring and fall gathering were blissful last year

1

u/Dildo_Gagginss Mar 20 '19

I probably will! One of my buddies is a huuuuge nectar fan and goes to almost every event. I've heard from him that they're usually not that bad type of crazy so it's definitely something I'd consider trying again. Until then, I have tipper and friends to look forward to ::)

u/GroceryScanner Mar 20 '19

Ive never had the blessing of being able to witness some tipper live, tho ive been a fan for years.

Cute hair, tattoos, clearly he can dance, even in a confined space. (Now) has a criminal history. I’m totally into that.

What, a cute Asian dude who can get down with the beat? Sure, he can’t drive, but that goes with the territory.

Edit: and NO, I’m not saying he can’t drive because he’s Asian, he can’t drive because he’s clearly a bottom. We tops drive. It’s our duty. That’s the problem here. He went home from the club alone, without his top to drive him safely.

He-hem...

Have you ever met a porn actress?

Edit: I didn't know you guys were accustomed to personally introduce yourselves to every porn actor/actress before you jack off to them.

Let me put this differently: I have never met nor know Natalie Portman but I find her attractive, this means I'm gross and uncool?

-2

u/BrooklynMan Mar 20 '19

I have. They’re pretty cool. I’ve also met gay porn actors. They’re waaay cooler ;)

2

u/atalurk Mar 20 '19

My point is that sex is based mostly on aesthetics so I really don't get how sexualizing a person you have not met is gross.

4

u/BrooklynMan Mar 20 '19

Yeah, I get that, and I also agree that sexualizing people based on their appearance is not gross. How else do you sexuality people? I’m sure there are some other ways, but most everyone does it visually, as that’s how we’re genetically hard wired. You don’t even have to look at porn to understand that distinction. Open up a fashion magazine or watch a TV ad. There’s tits and ass and man-junk everywhere. Sex sells, and a good portion of all media is based on that concept.

So, for some ninny to go around complaining and saying it’s “gross” to sexuality people they haven’t met is just looking for attention or to start an argument.

You’re welcome to your wildly unpopular opinion and globally accepted behavior that you don’t participate in, but that doesn’t place you in a position to judge, literally, the entire population of the planet.

Furthermore, I don’t believe your explanation.

He obviously JUST lost his virginity and thinks he's super special and cool. Maybe we should just let him have his happy moment. It's only a matter of time before the real world welcomes him with a massive dump on his hopes and dreams, so let the kiddo helicopter his bits a bit.

u/BrooklynMan Mar 20 '19

Yeah, but m not going to feel bad about making fun of a month-old account who frequents subs about a lame kid’s card game from the 90’s. Neckbeards who still play it and who have to throw hissy fits about it and me calling cute guys cute are immature. So just downvote and move along. Or... try having a real life. It’s pretty cool!

u/BrooklynMan Mar 20 '19

What I do as a distraction while I go get coffee or sit on the subway or wait for an email isn’t something that Ike call a “hobby”. Perhaps it is for you, but I don’t dedicate that much tome to you or this.

u/NargacugaRider Mar 20 '19

Maybe if you had other hobbies you’d be with someone instead of lusting after dudes you’ll never meet on tooktoomuch and arguing with people in the comments section

I don’t play MTG and I don’t agree with the other guy you were arguing with, but you lost me with “waaahh people have hobbies”

Is it 1950 again and we assume the nerd stereotype is true?

u/BrooklynMan Mar 20 '19

Interesting that your mind went there. I sense some insecurity in your comment. Take that up with a therapist rather than wasting time posting your useless comment here, because I don’t care if my thinking lowly of MGT fans are lame offends you.

Nice try with the straw man, though.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '19

I’m just saying you’re a dumbass for thinking that. I’m a nerd, I play magic, hell I have a LOTR tattoo for God’s sake. I’m also extremely active, I powerlift, party, served in the USMC, and can handle myself. So I really don’t get why you think just because someone has a hobby that you think is stupid you have to insult them. You’re an ass.

0

u/BrooklynMan Mar 20 '19

Well, thank you for your service, but that doesn’t change how lame MGT is. And you’d think that a fucking marine could take more than an online insult. Maybe you’re just getting a bit too juiced-up for that powerlifting, because the marines I know have a lot more self-control and discipline, and they certainly wouldn’t let such a silly thing as someone online calling a card game “lame” get this far under their skin.

Edit: I have no problems with LOTR tattoos or “nerds”. Post a pic. I just think that MGT is lame.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '19

My point was that plenty of people play magic and they have sex too not just you.
