Can I say omni-gel?
Caffeine, alcohol, [sub]THC[/sub], and all that stuff are fun but not very helpful when going up against Reapers or if I get sit.

Those are both medicinal, so unless you want them only to get high you'd be allowed to have them anyways.Nightmonger said:
i.e. I want the drug you choose to be one that's for enjoyment only.
Ah, LSD. I'd almost forgotten about that. I hear it's actually one of the safest drugs out there if it's good.SwimmingRock said:
I guess I should specify that the supply of your drug of choice would be absolutely clean and prime quality.
I don't want concerns such as quality to get in the way of making a proper judgement.
I haven't tried LSD though, so it's hard to commit to a lifetime with the stuff without knowing its effects intimately.
I guess a lot of it comes down to whether the occurence of "bad trips" is due to poor quality in the drug or if it's just an inherent thing that you can't get around.
Refer to post #6.
I think I heard somewhere that some indigenous tribes have been using extremely concentrated caffeine for ritual purposes, and wikipedia lists hallucinations as one of the effects of overdose.
I don't have any of this backed up though, so take it with a pinch of salt.
Well, at first I was going to say weed (since it's almost legal in the U.S. once people pull their heads out of their asses) but then I gave a think.
I'd have to go with caffeine as well. It's tastey and more fun. Sitting on the couch giggling can be entertaining once in a while, but I prefer to be energetic.

In that case, caffeine, its the only thing in that category weak enough to slip by my personal objections. I abhor and despise recreational drug use. Even if the drug in question is perfectly safe (something that even cannabis cannot entirely claim, although it is far better than some others), there is never any excuse for deliberately screwing with your mind for the fun of it.
you had to include caffiene...you just had to do it.. i was gonna say something else but NOOOOO ya had to mention caffiene is a drug....thats the one.. I cant live without my soda
No, drowning in an endless, cold, black ocean was not a bad trip. It was what happened when I drank cola the first time I took acid. It only lasted for about 3 seconds and was more interesting than bad. I'm just saying that LSD works as a drug to keep you awake and active, but that the occasional bit of confusion might impede your daily functioning more than caffeines negative effects. That's why I made LSD my second choice.Jonluw said:
And yes, LSD is quite safe. Neither physically nor mentally addictive and not medically harmful. It's safer than any legal drug (including weed, if that fits your countrys definition of legal). For the life of me, I can't understand why it's illegal at all. I assume paranoia and the all-encompassing fear of old voters led to it being outlawed, but I'm not sure why that still holds up.

Refer to the OP.MrLumber said:
Drugs that are needed for medical purposes will still be available for those.
Oooh, that's a tough one.Heronblade said:
I don't know whether to include over the counter moderate painkillers in the 'medicinal' bunch or not.
I'm going to say that a drug which's main or only effect is to numb pain/sensation without distorting other senses counts as drugs that will be available to you no matter what.
The reason for this is that my reason for making the thread in the first place was to see what drugs people would use for recreational purposes if they could have a free pick.
Oh, but you can chose illegal drugs!GoaThief said:
I was just asking that you do not condone them in a way that will offend the mods.
i.e. You can say "If I could have any drug I wanted without legal repercussions, I'd choose heroin".
But you can't say "Damn guys, you should all try heroin. It feels awesome, and it's even fairly easy to get away with. I promise."
Caffeine. So I guess I'm buying the sodas, guys, for being so late to the party.
If it had to be illegal, then one of those pills from that movie about the dude who could think real fast. Can never remember its name, strangely. All I know is that it starts with a I. Impossible maybe? Note that I said ONE and would prefer to not know who gave it to me so that I can't go back for a fix, and as such don't get any health damage.

LSD, I suppose. Or cannabis. Or MDMA. This is too difficult. Properly regulated, they would all make the world a better place. Which is why they are illegal.
Ah, yes. I assume trying to replace caffeine's practical effects in your daily life with LSD would end pretty... weirdly?SwimmingRock said:
Lunch break. Time for some LSD. Holy crap, my sandwich is talking to me!
Or would it be possible to use doses small enough to not actually experience many psychoactive effects?
If I were to chose LSD, I'd probably keep the use confined to the weekends.
Yeah, consistency is to drug laws what rats are to the ecosystem.
It belongs there, but we sure as hell are trying our best to keep it out.
[sub]Now that's a forced simile if I ever made one.[/sub]
Booze.
Always have two bottles of whiskey on hand: a full one to drink from, and an empty one to hit people who try to take the first bottle away with.

Aspirin. All the way. Or any drug that does the same thing.
Have fun with your pain and fevers, you guys.
That or antibiotics. Because, you know, I don't really like dying from bacteria.

Heroin. I get it on prescription so I suppose it comes under the "available for medical purposes" clause anyway, but hell, I still choose that.
Edit: Secondly, if I was making the decision for the whole of humanity I suppose I'd go with something different since I still get what I want under the "medical purposes" bit. So then I go for...umm...probably caffeine, I like tea and I can't think of any other drug I'd want to do.

This was probably a bad idea for a thread, with most drugs being either medical or illegal.
I myself would have to go with caffein, like everyone else here apparently, since it's already the only drug I intake. I didn't realize how addicted I was to the stuff until I went a day with only drinking water and started going through withdrawl. I felt like a dizzy tranquilized slug with a pulsing headache.
