The whole LSD, STP, marijuana, heroin, hashish, prescription cough medicine crowd suffers from the Watchtower itch: you gotta be with us, man, or youre out, youre dead. This pitch is a continual and seeming MUST with those who use the stuff. Its no wonder they keep getting busted. – Charles Bukowski

If you think dope is for kicks and for thrills, youre out of your mind. There are more kicks to be had in a good case of paralytic polio or by living in an iron lung.
