pedros...I gave people grief for advertising their junkiness..., I think any sensible person will agree that it may not be wise to advertise their wide knowledge of drugs/their personal history IF their identity is widely known. Let me say it one more time for selective readers/those with starvingpelicanitis: I don't judge what you did, but I do think for certain people it may be unwise to post it.I hope that's in simple enough terms so that even the reluctant get it.
Feel free to tell me here if you think posting it a wise move, but I think several people may want to ask why.
Likewise, I have never attacked anyone for being Jewish...I have attacked the IDF for slaughtering 2000 people in a war which included the dropping of white phosphorous on civilians, and the deaths of old people, women and children, an event almost universally condemned by the world and officially by the UN.
I believe the word I used, in a private message to scobienz, (who once again showed his dedication to forum ethics by chatting about PMs with a 3rd party) , *(caveat posters) was 'kike'. As I explained to him, decent Jews are people, if people raise the issue of their religion, I guess they are Jews. Shitty Jews get labelled, just like any other group. Is that unfair, or are you asking for special treatment, because that would be discrimination too, right?
So yes, I was led to believe you were Jewish, and a bad one. I think I apologised for that in lengthy PM to you (which I did NOT publish). Are you still hurting over that?
Heard of Ann Snow? Hope you expressed your outrage at (perceived) religious discrimination there...
So, please tell me, which of the 2 acts I committed you think was a grievous offence:
1. Suggesting that any person who is prominent in the public arena should cool advertising his drug experiences on a public forum, or..
2. Supporting human rights as laid out by the United Nations.
I think many people would agree with me.
Our latest poster is a newbie, and I think very few people can even guess/ do know his true identity.
But I seriously doubt that, for example, any poster on here has the right to judge someone who has come clean about his past, admitted his mistakes, and given hope to others with the same problem.
Do you disagree? We are qualified to judge him? I'm not.
Please feel free to tell me which item you think I erred heinously with...the genocide, perhaps?
If you can cool down for a while, maybe we should try and focus on what we agree on? Just an idea.
I think the poster is genuine, and his experiences can be of help to many people. He's not boasting about his past or asking where to buy drugs, he's talking about his way of getting out of drugs. Should that be belittled? I think not.
OK? Peace.

Logos Comment cracked me upnyxx wrote:logos wrote:Soon another sad statistic. Why is cambodia such a magnet for drugpat losers that give us sexpats a bad name ?
bad name?
pft, i don't know man.
might be something to do with the fact that, as my sister told me, you can even find signs in bathrooms there reminding the likes of you that paedophilia is a criminal offense. actually spelled out in plain english, for the english speaking crowd of 'sexpats'.
or maybe to do with the fact that going to a place like cambodia for the sex and viagra is plain fucking disgusting from any possible angle you can look it from?
in case i haven't clarified that enough by now - you and your kind make me sick, and that's another reason i prefer to keep it low, so i don't fall in the statistics, as you say, but not because of the drugs, you see...
in the end, nobody's a winner, i can assure you.
happy you feel like such a winner tho - i imagine that overall low cambodian IQ can really make a 'sexpat' like you feel like a REAL man and a WINNER.
and - did i come to the wrong place? begins to seem so.
Nyxx response cracked me up more
He does have a point though, you sexpats are fucking disgusting, youre not real men, not like us hipsters, we was here before it was a 'thing' man
i got ya back Nyxx

I'm going call April Fools.....although declaring a need for meff, oxy, and good internet doesn't sound unreasonable by Snooky standardsnyxx wrote:what would be an appropriate introduction - not even sure any more, lol.
am balkan scum originally, that tends to every few years change geolocation, but have been looking to the far east and southeast asia for the last couple of years.
as it so happens, my gf is taiwanese and have been here for the last 2 months or so now.
but am soon landing in cambodia on my own. am one way or the other staying for the long haul.
some basic orientation however can go a long way.
and here's where i stand.
looking to get a cheap place for the first week or two.
sihanoukville or around - preferrably around.
drug-wise am, honestly, looking for 2 things: meff (as, let's face it, no other cognitive steroid gives you that razor sharp focus when needed in the short-term) and oxycodone (as an ex-junkie, i don't need to go any further from, well - what my needs require..)
and i need good internet connection.
if you have to ask - i have to catch up with a lot of things real quick.
if you have to ask further - i have none of the morals and all of the ethics, and make a clear cut distinction between those categories.
all that said, and without yet having had a whiff of that air there (tho i think i'm getting a sense of what to expect), i would be more than happy to actually volunteer or work for less (i honestly wouldn't even feel good being paid the salaries i hear they pay to teach english) - my english is flawless, know some coding and am good with computers and have basically done so many kinds of different jobs i think my resume looks pretty weird at this point.
all that said, i don't even drink much nowadays and prefer to keep a distance from the worst of what cambodia has to offer - been there, done that and lived to tell the stories which aren't even worth telling...
thanks.
and yes, i may not have made myself as eloquently clear as i might have wished (and i must say my vocabulary has deteriorated in the 2 months spent in taiwan so far, as i had to calibrate to the level ot their english - which ain't bad, but ain't that rich either..)
and yes, it's always awkward when approaching some new board/forum/group/guild/whatever... until you acclimitize, and so on.
that said, i am not advertising any junkiness, or anything whatsoever really.
i just feel that whatever i've been through, i've put myself there, dealt with it as best as i could and is neither something to be proud of nor ashamed. but i suppose there's a hierarchy where i am headed - the junkies, the 'sexpats', the whatever. greit! i'm having no part of it.
i welcome any criticism, sarcasm, etc. DESPITE my tolerance lately seeming to be at an all time low, particularly for that special flavor of testosterone fueled western arrogance.
why did i posed the question regarding meth - i've lived 3 years in the epicenter of the european meth plague, i know what i am talking about, seen all the facets of what it does and what it can do. what it did for me at the time the way i used it was go through a lot (literature, acquiring some desired skills at the time, etc.)
meth has its function, when you have one. THAT SAID, i am not even into stimulants when it comes to drugs. neurotoxicity kicks in in the longer term of systematic regular abuse. i never even understood the psychology of that, tbh.
and opiates, one has to scratch that itch every now and then even if off the hook. this never entirely leaves you.
and with ALL THAT said, and betting that the 'sexpat' here is magnitudes further down the loser chain in his own imaginary hierarchy next to me, i really would like to put myself to some actual use with whatever skill and knowledge i have, in the right way. i may be wrong, but i think cambodian society is among the few that deserve that attention.
and israel, well..
we don't agree on that one even with my closest friends.
all of which have strong opinion regarding israel and the middle east, as if they been there and understand the dynamics, ethnic mosaic and historical trajectories of what the actual fuck. and talk about UN resolutions as if they can take them in their proper context.
the middle east follows its own metabolic pace and logic, and such a seismic disruption to the stagnant ecosystem as was israel IS necessary - israel, as a total entity, knows what its doing in the long run, even if individual israelis do not. and gaza (i lived 3km from gaza) is what some call a 'assabiya black hole' - this place will be dead weight not just to israel but the rest of the world for long time to come...

I guess some readers see an introduction from a new poster who has never held a steady job and is hooked on meth, oxycontin and opiates and plans to move to Sihanoukville and teach English, and they think "Wow, I just hope I can get my life together like that guy some day."Playboy wrote:"Khmer440: we give hope to the hopeless"

I know, I have held steady jobs for decades, have never been hooked on meth, oxy, or opiates. Have never had a plan to move to Snooky and have never even thought about teaching English.gavinmac wrote:I guess some readers see an introduction from a new poster who has never held a steady job and is hooked on meth, oxycontin and opiates and plans to move to Sihanoukville and teach English, and they think "Wow, I just hope I can get my life together like that guy some day."Playboy wrote:"Khmer440: we give hope to the hopeless"

i knew i had to go through this, i just really hoped i could be spared it.
i've held steady jobs alright.
mighty interesting ones too, and cold buckets of fucking water - esp the last one...
i don't think that's a criteria for anything. it is for some...
