It's always expensive cars, guns and dental work. They're probably rationalizing their spending by saying hey, at least I ain't blowing my money on toy robots. This only applies to the U.S. I don't know about Japan where everything is crazy and drug dealers probably have huge toy robot collections inside their limousines and they call their gold plated glocks "Garubatrons".<br /><br />Drug users I would think have a large demographic overlap with adult toy robots collectors. My theory is that toy collecting is predominately what video gaming used to be-the hobby of the lower middle class. Videogames have since boomed but adult toy collecting is still a very niche hobby that isn't common. At least in America. I'll bet the Michael Bay movies have broadened the appeal of Transformers so that there are more meth users now who have transforming toy robot Camaros but I'd hate to be the guy who has a meth habit AND likes Michael Bay movies. Then again I don't know how many meth users there are out there. Maybe a giant meth addicted population explains the popularity of the Bay movies. It's scary to think about those people existing. Sometimes <a href="http://www.kci.org/meth_info/msg_board_posts/041506/Hallucinations%20and%20Meth.htm" rel="nofollow">people on meth see demons</a> and I wonder how they would ever be able to tell the difference between meth demons and their <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/26729933@N02/3282154883/" rel="nofollow">Michael Bay Transformers collection</a>.<br /><br />Since drug addicts are usually people who can't afford to be on drugs I'm sure that somewhere out there is somebody who has sold off their robots to get more drugs. If adult robot collecting is a mental disorder as I've postulated, then that person actually improved their life however slightly. The two hobbies of drug abuse and robot collecting are so economically and emotionally draining that I don't think they could coexist for long. In the end I don't know what would be healthier-a guy who sold his robots to get drugs or a guy who sold all his drugs to get toy robots. <br /><br />I would love to read the blog of a guy who was a drug addict and a toy robots collector. It would be slightly inspiring to read encouraging messages about how it can be done if you just try hard enough. But also it would be really, really stupid.Evil King Macrocranioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01693211146604544544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37301459.post-32225374101950753192009-12-20T18:53:49.060-08:002009-12-20T18:53:49.060-08:00I've often wondered if drug users have a clich...I've often wondered if drug users have a clichéd excuse like the one you mentioned that's commonly used by those extreme individuals in this "thing of ours"?????agentmorrishttp://staysick.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
