I was just told by a source “watch out for fentanyl”
So I assumed that was an issue but I guess I wasted 75$??
Ok. Cocaine is one of the most myth soaked, lore encumbered, stories drugs in existence.
I could post dozens of foolish little "tails" about it that have been laid down through the decades.
"I had to take a shit after the first line so it must be cut with baby laxitive"
"If they dont cut it then you might od"
"The pure stuff makes your nose bleed"
"The ..(fill in a color) is the best
"The ..(fill in the physical appearance) is the best)
"Its all wacked except for the stuff I get"
"If it smells like (fill in the smell) it's the best"
Its cut with...crushed glass, meth, detergent, rat poison, sugar, heroin, fentanyl, novocaine (no such thing), procaine, lidocaine..... if younget it off 'the brick's. It's pure.
If you get it off "the brick" it's not pure.
"I had some once that was..........)
"Its all wacked if you get it off the street....under an eighth, under an ounce, under a lb"
"If you base it then its pure"
"If it melts when you.... its pure"
"If it turns (name a color) in (name a solvent) its pure.
I am sorry if I am attacking anyone's favorite myth, I really am but
I have been looking at, tasting, working chemically with clandestine and on occasion pharmaceutical cocaine for 40 years.
Every single time i.claimed to know definitively all there was to know about it I was proven or I proved myself wrong.
It is a fascinating chemical precisely because of its relation to society. Were pharmaceutical, 98 percent pure cocaine available to all who wanted it, I suspect that most would eventually grow bored with it and move on to other things.
I believe the allure is that mystique, the cost, the romance. After all, it comes ready made with stories.
I'll give you an example. I am a devout smoker of ultra premium cigars. One a day, I love my aged, lovingly collected vitolas.
But invariably, when the subject of my passion comes up, what is the very first thing I hear from my kind but naive friends? Something about "cubans".
"I had s Cuban once"
"Cubans are the best"
"Oh canndo, thank you but I only smoke cubans"
And so this aura surrounds one of the few drugs that cost more than gold.
So, you have an expensive chemical (cocktail really) that most women find sexually attractive, represents excess of every sort and even goes s ways toward fortifying people for those excesses.
And then you add to that your local cocaine dealer. He finds that this above all others can be...er.... creatively adulterated..
Add to THAT what I said before, that your white powder was manufactured in the middle of a jungle
