While going through an old junk box, I just found a coke spoon.
The odd thing is, I've never done coke- never to my knowledge even laid eyes on the real thing. I have no memory of this little item. Perhaps it's something I picked up during my drinking days, some twenty five years ago. Wonder how it stuck around so long without my noticing it! :shrug:

Aren't they illegal now? Guess I should destroy it.

1. Send it back to Dubya -- he's been looking for it.

2. If it were his it would be well used.
This one is in new condition.

Perhaps he'd like to buy it off me? :evilgrin:

6. Nah, a coke bullet is better to use...

Unless you're holding it like the guy in that picture, they're discreet enough to use at a bar or a UN summit.

3. I once put out a "box o' junk" on a yard sale that had a wooden fish-shape
pipe in it, one couple started rootin' thru it & they pondered & discussed its function for 10 minutes. I still have it, tho.

4. They're not illegal to own.
They're just illegal to snort coke with.

9. Oh, I remember now- I was thinking of something else
Edited on Mon Sep-25-06 12:07 AM by Prisoner_Number_Six
Remember the story of the old Micky D coffee stirring sticks? They had a small scoop on the end (for the creamer), and they ended up becoming the head's standard for a coke hit. They were forced to redesign the stick, which is why they now have a flat end on them.

11. I never heard that before...
However, now I have ideas for a slurpee straw. They have a spoon on the end.

12. Wouldn't a straw be more practical?

13. If you wanna overdose and blow the top of your head off, sure!
Another old standard way to do it is to tightly roll a dollar bill (high rollers would use a hundred)- this is a reason so high a percentage of paper money in circulation has coke on it (seriously). :rofl:

14. There's even a way to roll the bill into a tight straw that won't unroll.
It's a little tricky, but a decent party trick.

15. Cutting out a line and using a straw or bill is preferable really but...
if you're in a public bathroom, it's easier to scoop out a bump and snort it off a spoon.

19. Ah, coke - I played a most amazing game of foosball on coke.
It was like I could see into the future. We had four of us playing, two to a team, and we are all coked up - fucking amazing game.

Only time I ever did it. Other than the seeing into the future part of foosball, I found coke to be very boring and a waste of money; but yet, even with only doing it just the once, and not even particularly enjoying it, there was something there that spoke to me of the ease of an addiction.

20. how can coke spoons be illegal?
Edited on Mon Sep-25-06 12:35 AM by pitohui
a lot of people collect them, i don't think some of these folks who collect "miniature" spoons even know what they are

you can get a coke spoon for every one of the 50 states or at least you used to be able to, i think they look pretty tacky tho, but some people put them in shadow boxes

ok, teasing just a little :-)
