Keep your nose out of their business and the coke, too. Seriously, they are just having a good time (the way they see it). If you go meddling they will just see you as a wuss, and it won't change a thing. Some people get carried away with the drugs. Don't get pulled in with them! Keep your distance!
Yeah, let your friends do what they want. If you don't like what they're doing, just don't go to their parties or get new friends.

Bah u've been livin w/o em for 3months not like u've been sittin home all that time (hopefully) hang with ur other friends n forget those HS druggies. I'd stay in concatct with them just to see how their life gets screwed up 😀!

Maybe when they hit bottom you should help them out.

 
How come people instantly equate some who does drugs with a loser? I don't get it. Anyways...

If you're surprised about their drug usage why not just go ask them what's up instead of posting a message for a bunch of people who don't know sh1t about the situation to comment on?

Highschool friends aren't meant to be kept after highschool anyway - especially the loser ones who's lives started to fall apart after highschool. I consider cocaine use a significant indicator of somebody's life falling apart. They should shoot themselves in the head now and save themselves a life of worthlessness.

If you think that just because somebody does cocaine makes them worthless, than you are worthless. IMO the average citizen highly under estimates the amount of illegal drug use that takes place in this country, I know I did. Just because somebody decides to do cocain does not make them worthless.
Cocaine is nothing to mess around with. Of course it doesen't make them worthless, but it doesen't bode well for them either, and I wouldn't want to have tweaker friends either.

No, I don't underestimate the amount of illegal drug use. You, however, overestimate the worthfulness of the overall population.

And if my comment about them being worthless is wrong yours is even more so. I think somebody is worthless because they're doing coke. How can you possibly make the logical jump to then decree me as worthless merely for stating an opinion? They've acted negatively and I have an opinion on it. The significance of their actions vs. my opinions are far and away in a different ballpark of importance.

Settle down Skroob, while they remain worthless, they most likely could be our president someday.

It's a new prerequisite, I believe.
