Some of the bloviating shit that gets tossed around here, it's ridiculous.

Pure cocaine is NOT physically addictive.
People changing the meaning of addiction doesn't make it so. It can become habit forming. But there is zero physical addiction and withdrawal.
You guys listen to too much "War On Drugs" govt. propaganda.
And yes, compared to people like you and dynamo...I am the voice of experience. You two should get out more often. lol
And I'm glad to see that you've become "addicted" to the word "bloviating"
I have to assume that since you've used it over and over...you MUST be "addicted".
It's shocking to me how and what people think these days.
Cocaine was not only legal...but it was used by lots of people (and still is) politicians, doctors, lawyers, etc. (you know the scourge of society). Hell, it was even the main ingredient in Coca Cola.
It gives you a burst of energy and a very light pleasant head buzz.
And just like caffeine...if you took an un-godly amount...you could speed your heart up too fast and have a heart attack.
99.9999999% of people don't do that. And never will.
Look, all I was saying is that cocaine is NOT physically addictive. It's in your HEAD (psychological) Just like biting your fingernails or any other habits you may have.
