Ummm, no. Any more than I'm scared of cars while visiting a car dealership.
I've had literally hundreds of beers bought for me while in the DJ booth and you just smile and wave back and place it out of the way of the turntables and go on. It's not some kind of epic struggle that it's made out to be - at least it never has been for me. Last edited by rostasi; 05-17-2022 at 12:23 PM. |

For well over 50 years, I've been continuously refining my abilities to escape from myself when it comes to the work I do. Mind altering substances, OTOH, actually highly emphasize your "self" at various mental levels, so I'm just not interested in that. |

You're not. You're just being a piss with a penchant for bringing up disabled people - and it's no longer interesting.
My statement wasn't literal in any sense. The point is (and I know you've got things to do and can't be bothered with something over 2 paragraphs) that evaluating your choices when it comes to drugs is a form of autonomy - not something that makes me "scared" of drugs. If I were to go buy a car and the salesperson shoves a car at me and I decide that not only do I not want it, but I will look for other options, it's not being "scared" of cars. Decades ago, I had these realtors trying to sell me houses that didn't even come close to my descriptions. I changed realtors each time. I'm not scared of houses. |

If you mean listening to it, well, I've been listening to and appreciating music (shut up Batty and just for good measure jwb too ) and never felt the need either to be drunk or high. My walls of text on several thousand albums over the last ten years or so here kind of show that.
