All tag results for 'cocaine'

Well, we're not so sure how you can be good at using cocaine — is measured by ability to thwart an OD, or by quantity?

According to a new report, it's quantity. Like, 37% of all the world's cocaine is used by Americans. That means 1.5% of Americans use it!

Elton John used to have a pretty serious cocaine problem, but thankfully he's been clean and sober for 20 years.

Congrats!

Sir Elton John is an incredible person, but back in the 80s, self-hate coupled with cocaine addiction nearly led him down a path to self-destruction.

Then he read a magazine article about Ryan White, a young boy living in Indiana who had AIDS after a bad blood transfusion to treat his hemophilia.

Jamie Oliver is never tight-lipped about his beliefs on food, and today is no exception: Jamie has just compared energy drinks to cocaine when given to kids.

We do think it's a little odd that energy drinks aren't age restricted, but we mean, coffee isn't either. Somehow we've managed to not get our kids into coffee — so is it because energy drinks taste like soda?

Frank Ocean is an enigma. A beautiful enigma.

Not only has he recently come out publicly, he did it in the face of the hip-hop and R&B arena that doesn't really take kindly to that kind of lifestyle.

He's a part of OddFuture, which is arguably one of the most shocking rap collectives out there — who rap about drinking, drugs, sexual assault and also drop the word "fag" more often than not.

Regardless of all this stuff, though, Frank has not only just come out as at least bisexual, but he has also sworn off drinking and drugs!

So why did he do this?

Hole. Lee. Crap.

$98 Million worth of cocaine has been seized in Hong Kong… which, scientifically, is a shizz load!

We're talking 649 KILOS.

For the metric impaired, that's 1,430 POUNDS!

The drugs were caught in a shipping container that arrived at Hong Kong's port from Ecuador. It was probably headed for Southeast Asia or mainland China.

Because we're badasses like this, the container happened to be one that the U.S. DEA flagged for Hong Kong to take a closer look.

Wow, someone is going to be in HUGE trouble over this in the drug syndicate!

We wouldn't want to be them!

Dang! Not cool!

Overeating and cocaine abuse are BOTH controlled by the same neurons in the brain.

It's not what you think, though
