A. Half the parents are on them, prescribed.
B. When you have dads more obbsessed w/ Lohan nude shots more than an example for their daughters?
When stupid people vote for a vengeful man because a vile and corrupt media tell them it’s cool and just.
C. When a dad trusts Coolio more than he he does The Bible?
D. When fathers fabricate and/or publically brag about sexual conquests for monetary gain and their own insecurity?
E. When a father chooses his concubine over the mother of his sons’ and the woman he vowed faithfullness.
What message are we sending to our children? And why should they care about anything right?…The wages of sin are death…(never has that been more evident)….There is nothing new under the sun…
One problem dealers are caught and back on the street dealing their poison in three days, to deal their poison again, ruining lives.
You are right about the adults, their adultery, with their parties, and amphetamine use to loose weight, stay slim are a horribl example for their kids.Themessage they send, it is allright to regulate your life with a pill andgo after your feel good, no matter who else is destroyed in the process.
What the hell happened, T? Did you activate SPELLCHECK at the same time your CAPSLOCK finally wore out?
One minor nitpick: If (E) was about who I think it was…..he never vowed faithfulness to Je… uh….her.
MYSTERY SOLVED!
The word on the street is that if this is our old friend the “original bigt” then this is probably what happened—-
A) he escaped from his handlers
B) he purchased/stole a new Windows 8 PC with auto spell check
C) he purchased/stole /downloaded a new dictionary
D) he is on new medications

BigT – you may not be the butt of jokes and criticism now, but your posts are more readable and to the point. Glad to see you’re doing better!
Did not know so many simple-minded Dumb@$$#$ got thrown off by CAPS…
I thought we’re told over and over that you ignorant Liberals are America’s “Best and Brightest”….
If so, maybe it’s why we’re $17 Trillion in debt, home prices and salaries are down, unemployment and gas prices are up..and you Stupid $#!ts put the misery index King back in office…to EFF it up even more…
You people explain a lot about yourselves…w/o really saying anything of substance…(except that you probably abuse them)….
There is also speculation that BigT’s CAP PROBLEM was corrected by surgery. He was reported as having the normal ten fingers, but he had seven of them on his left hand!

The competition for the Darwin Awards is getting pretty tough!
The proof of your statement – just look at the candidates for the 1st congressional district!

They were called ‘pill parties’ in the 1970s. Go ask Alice, I think she’ll know.
I wasn’t around for these 70s parties, but from what I’ve read, participants knew what they were taking. There were plenty of options, and you could mix and match, but you at least knew what to expect.
An emergency room physician once told me that kids will experiment with almost anything. Besides the usual spray can paint sniffing, he has treated kids for drinking those liquid air fresheners and chewing the cardboard air fresheners you put in your cars.
Besides that, how do folks know what kind of shit is in the drugs they purchase on the streets? It’s almost suicidal. Parents need to be alert to changes in their kid’s behaviours, such as new friends, mood changes, etc. The information for parents is both available and free.

Perfect name for such parties…as it’s become socially acceptable via Pharma propaganda to pop a pill for most inconveniences in life. Depressed? Don’t change your life to address your depression, pop a pill and keep on, keeping on.
Joints ache because your fat and can’t move for extended periods of time because of the pain? Pop some more pills.Etc., et al.
Of course, there are times under which meds are a perfectly rational response for problems….but the bar has purposely been set lower over time for meds/prescriptions, with benefit to the bottom line of doctors & pharma. Just like the McDonald’s jingle, “They are lovin’ it!” in our McDonald’s society.
Hell, there are so many drugs(especially psychotropic) in so many people you can’t even fill up a glass of city water without having minute particles of them that come out of our rivers and streams that the city water departments can’t get rid of.
You don’t even need to go to a party to get some of those.

I was at one of those parties years ago. Grabbed a handful of what turned out to be Ex-Lax!
A bunch of shit if you ask me !
Yeah, this isn’t “the latest thing in teenage drug abuse” at all. It’s an old story, and a dubious one at that. This piece is from 2006 and raises quite a few questions about whether these parties even happen at the “epidemic” levels the media says they’re happening. Sure, kids experiment with their parents’ drugs and share with their friends, but rampant “pharm parties?” Nah. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/press_box/2006/06/pharfetched_pharm_parties.single.html
took a handful of ExLax…
Pro tip:
Works great as a cough suppressant.

Didn’t realize how safe it was 60 years ago when all we had available to get through adolescence on the weekends was a can or two of snuff, a few stolen packs of unfiltered humps and with a little luck a jar of white lighting
