Coffee equals heroin?
silverwing66 June 2012
So I was just talking to my mom as she was getting ready for church (thank my Pagan gods she's not making me go with her today). I mentioned that the first time I tried coffee was last year at school when my nevermo friend offered me some. When I said this, my mom looked so disappointed and replied, "It's a good thing he didn't have any heroin for you to try, too."
So now having a sip of coffee is the same as shooting up with heroin?? Mormons have such skewed ideas...

Give me a break
Only people who have NO clue about drugs would compare coffee to heroin.
I don't know anyone who sharpens old syringes to inject coffee into their veins. I've never heard of someone selling their body for a fix. I doubt anyone has ripped off their relatives for coffee money.
idiots.

I had a member tell me that because a lot of people smoke their morning cigarette with their coffee, coffee was the gateway drug to smoking which was of course the gateway to everything else.

Darn, I missed out on an addiction????
just thought about a friend, who did coffee enemas. Although I researched it, it still did not "call to me"

I had almost the same thing happen.
My mother came to the house, saw the coffee pot, turned to me and said, "Do you USE coffee? She said the word 'use' exactly the same as if she had said 'USE drugs'.
I was speechless. After that I made sure to leave the alcohol out on the counter for the next time.

Yep, it's true.
I just turned some tricks so I could buy some good beans for my next hit.

When I was young there were tennis courts across the road from the hunch building. My Sunday school teacher would make comments about those people worshipping tennis while we would be t church. The more creepy part was the psychotic tone in his voice when he would say that. Your heroine comment reminded me of the insanity it is to make those ridiculously judgemental comments about benign behavior.

+1 LOL!
I did the same! Then I started inviting them to my dinner parties where I served the wine, and drank it!
I told them they shouldn't have pushed me so hard on the coffee issue and maybe I wouldn't have upped the ante...

Re: Coffee equals heroin?
Oh yeah. It is.
The other day I snatched some old lady's purse and there was enough money to get a triple venti latte with and extra shot.
What a high.

Reminds me of something
I worked at a tele-survey place in Provo 8 years ago. There was plenty of zoobies working there and was subjected to their frequent naive and ridiculous conversations and opinions.
One day, an RM tried to impress the pretty blond zoobs next to me by proclaiming, "Coffee is SO bad for you! I think it should be outlawed!" What a douchebag.

They often seem to get their caffiene fix by some other delivery system, though. Diet Coke or perhaps a little of 5-hour Energy Shots. "It's ok, it's umm... like medicine, 'cause I dint get much sleep, so....."

A teenage relative took up drinking coffee. Her mom made her keep the coffeepot in her room, because she didn't want to "enable" her. This same teen had previously been using meth.

in my marriage, beer equaled cheating
My ex wife saw the fact that I hid an occasional beer from her to be the same as cheating on her.
I wish her new husband luck.

Re: Coffee equals heroin?
I get it in the form of espresso. Is that just as bad or worse? I make coconut lattes. I always figured it was pretty harmless.

My father-in-law is a recovering heroin addict amoung other things...
The comparison makes me really ill.
Last time I checked coffee couldn't give me HIV or hep!

Re: Coffee equals heroin?
I've had three cups of heroin myself today. I drank coffee before I became a Mormon. I used to drink it with my grandpa as a kid. It is one of my cherished memories of him, and it was a pleasure to drink it again after I left.
