Is Crack Rock Going High Tech?

in #drugs8 years ago (edited)

Crack is known as a highly addictive, highly destructive drug. Drugs these days are being improved. At least that is one way you could look at it. There is the legal weed K2, the super heroin fentanyl, high-end boutique weed and MDMA/Molly being more popularly differentiated from ecstasy. You also have nicotine vaping and the microdosing of hallucinogens.

What we're left with is Meth and Crack. What are the businessmen involved in these ventures doing to differentiate and stratify their product? A more cynical author might say the meth and crack industries are dogs. Regular meth may have gotten a boost from breaking bad so, it makes sense to look to crack.

And It Did Not Disappoint:

At least some crackheads are very squirrelly. So are some Meth Heads. Those guys will take apart lawnmowers and video game machines for no real reason. It makes more sense then that you might want to set up a crack pipe vending machine. Plus, crackheads may want to spend a lot of time outside and have quarters they begged for.

According to the New York Post,

One of the shady vending machines was found in Medford, cemented into the ground in front of the Fairfield apartment complex on Monday and removed by authorities, News 12 reported.

A second contraption, labeled “SPENS,” was also found Monday in front of a Home Depot in Coram and appeared to be functioning, with empty plastic dispensers strewn on the ground around it.

A third square blue machine labeled “Sketch Pens” was discovered in front of the Coram Commons shopping center as early as Aug. 31

All three machines were found in the Brookhaven Township on Long Island in NY. At least some areas of the township are not fun. There is no reason to go there and it has at least one ghetto. It is one of the most country-like areas of the Island but it is kind of a no man's land. There's kind of a lot of self-defense places and Long Island Red Necks. It's neither city or Hamptons. It's probably a place where you could expect to see crack pipe vending machines if they were allowed.

The radio played a soundbite of the Head Town Counselor. He was genuinely pissed.

Maybe crack doesn't need to change with the times...

So are some Meth Heads. Those guys will take apart lawnmowers and video game machines for no real reason.

All electronics will be promptly taken apart. Then scrape up some of the dust/dirt from the carpet, put that in the pipe & smoke it too. Nest up, lets poke some holes in the walls, because the meth head & crack head, is certain someone or something is inside the wall SPYING on them.

Ever spent any real time around one? Which is worse the Crack head or the Meth Head. ANSWER- The Meth Head. But I'll admit, it's a close call.

R U KIDDING ME! They're selling crack pipes from vending machines now?

Remember when you used to walk out the door of your house & down the street to go put something in the mail box? It's way more EXCITING these day, mailboxes are gone - but we have "Drug Paraphernalia Vending Machine" at the corner. Does it IMPROVE Property Values & Help Create Stringer Safer Neighborhoods?

Meth Heads, Definitely Worse Than Crack Heads.

Ive only heard the jokey stories about Meth Heads.
I met a crackhead when I was 16 or 17. He lived in the deep ghetto.
All I remember was the weird smell in the house but I remember it only faintly. We went in the backroom, blazed him up then he starts talking to me I guess about fiber optics but all of us and it turned out he had made fiber optic Christmas Lights. I wanted to gank one but was told not to. It covered over the small lights.

After he talked about the lights, he pulled out one of those coin crank dispenser globe containers. It was filled with cracks. He had no reason to pull it out. His nephew was like "c'mon man."

Spying makes sense. The Meth brothers scene in Breaking Bad makes more sense now. It's where Jesse, to get in their house starts digging a hole in their lawn. Once he's digging, one guy goes out scratching and paranoid and asks Jesse what he's doing. Jesse says something like "you know, you know where we're going.

That was an epic show if you haven't seen it. It would have been better if it didn't blow up though. Blowing up brought a cheaper crowd and ubiquitous marketing. I watched that show from the night it premiered. No one knew what it was. It had a real vibe to it.

One day when it was pretty big some kid on line at the comic store was dorking out. Two years later, no more comics hardly any shows.
