Question of the Day: How do you normally pay for purchases in stores?
TK dies cocaine overdose!
- Thread starter kilo39
- Start date
mook, i think you might have a point there =) you never recover the full amount of cocaine that you snorted... plus cocaine gets "burned" very quickly in the body. somebody help me on the timing? how long does the body take to metabolise cocaine?
just to add fuel to the fire, aids doesnt kill people either, its the lack of antibodies that causes your demise =)

Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
So basically after 5 pages of drivel all agree that it not the fall that kills you its the sudden stop i.e cocaine trip doesn't kill you its the potential side effects of the trip such as heart failure from overdose.
Isn't that wat Kilo was saying all along ?

errr, btech, the problem with saying that "cocaine doesnt kill you blah blah blah" is that even though bullets dont kill you, it was still the bullets that caused you to die, wasnt it?
its all semantics, for <deity> sake. you say TOMATO, i say TAMATIE. same bloody thing. in the end, the article (according to me) isnt in the wrong here. the COMMENTS about the article however might have been.
and the issue about the boyfriend leaving shortly before the death is highly suspect yes, but that would be the job of our country's VERY CAPABLE investigators to figure out.
sheesh, lemme read this thread again...

Semantics? If semantics are so simple - then why not use the correct ones? And no - tomato and tamatie is not semantics. Semantics (without looking it up) - is the use of language in a certain way - usually to further ones own agenda - or simply because we are not clever/or caring enough to use any other.
Semantics: The meaning or the interpretation of a word, sentence, or other language form.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/semantics
And to be worried about semantics would be nitpicking.
Nitpick: To be concerned with or find fault with insignificant details. (although, some insignificant details might be important to some)
So a tomato isnt a tamatie? Help me out because I am not English, and therefore the basics of the language are hard to grasp. So the interpretation of 'tamatie' differs from the interpretation of 'tomato'? The one being a red vegetable/fruit, the other being...?
The semantics i am referring to would be the use of the word "traces". As somebody else pointed out, when you find traces of cocaine in blood, it means that the person has used cocaine... It doesnt mean the person only used TRACE AMOUNTS.
Het ek die kat by die stert beet of wat? Dit wil vir my voorkom of kilo nie die onderskeid kan tref tussen realiteit en fantasie nie. En wat maak dit saak of die berig se opskrif sê die persoon is dood aan dwelms?

I think a word better suited to your definition would be "Propaganda".
Propaganda is ... the deliberate attempt by some individual or group to form, control, or alter the attitudes of other groups by the use of instruments of communication, with the intention that in any given situation the reaction of those so influenced will be that desired by the propagandist.
