Quote from: nmac on February 15, 2013, 05:13 pmI came across a bit harsh and I apologize for that.The point I was trying to make was actually a positive one. Methamphetamine isn't itself a bad drug, but it is often misused and that has consequences. Using 10-15mg of high quality methamphetamine generally has very few negative side effects.I apologize for being so aggressive, then. I misinterpreted your statement. I actually used to call myself a junkie before realizing what some people were hearing when I said that word. I always meant it as a facetious, self deprecating way of acknowledging the reality that I take amphetamines every day.Whether those of us here agree on a definition or not, some people are going to hear "thief, liar, backstabber, and scum of the earth" when you use the word "junkie." If you're okay with some people defining it that way, go ahead and use it. If you aren't willing to accept that, you can't really ever use the word without knowing exactly who your audience is -- that's how I see it, anyway.
