I very, very rarely smoke weed. So rarely that I have smoked once this year and smoked once last year.
I used to do ecstacy every other weekend for about a year when I was fresh out of highschool, but haven't touched that in about 6/7 years and likely never will again.
That's about it. I was offered coke, cat & LSD at various times but no thanks. I'll drink beer, take some Jager shots while you trip balls.
What is 'cat'?

Methcathinone, a stimulant similar to amphetamine, but not as strong as tik. It is the active chemical in the plant/drug Khat, commonly used by Somalis and north Kenyans as a mild stimulant.
Does not sound even remotely tempting.
Unlike methamphetamine, methcathinone is not legal under any circumstances in the US due to its classification as a Schedule I substance. Conversely, methamphetamine has certain approved medical uses such as treatment of morbid obesity, narcolepsy and ADHD.
The effects have been compared to those of cocaine, since it commonly causes hypertension (elevated blood pressure) and tachycardia (elevated heart rate). Reported effects include:
Feelings of euphoria
Increased alertness
Dilated pupils
Slurred speech
Increased heart rate
Inability to stop talking
Increased empathy and sense of communication
Both decreased and increased sexual function and desire
Loss of cognitive ability relating to the distinction of relative importance of matters
The effects of methcathinone usually last from four to six hours.
Methcathinone has very strong affinities for the dopamine transporter and the noradrenaline transporter. Its affinity for the serotonin transporter is less than that of methamphetamine.[9]
Anecdotal reports have provided some information on patterns of methcathinone use. The most common route of administration is via nasal insufflation (snorting).[citation needed] Other routes of administration include per os, IV injection and smoking.
Methcathinone binges resemble amphetamine binges in that the user may not sleep or eat, and takes in little in the way of liquids. The methcathinone binge is followed by a "case of the Mondays" characterized by long periods of sleep, excess eating, long-lasting nosebleeds and, in some cases, depression.[citation needed]
Injecting this substance has recently been associated with symptoms similar to those seen in patients with Parkinson's Disease (Manganism) due to the compound manganese dioxide which is a byproduct of synthesis with permanganate.[10]

LOL well I quess this is one way of locating a dealer![]()
When I was in CT and walking along Long Street, was offered all manner of narcotics, from cocaine to weed to tik.
I was really surprised as I have never been offered them in Durban.
