Answer 2

What do you mean it's not you're choice?

Don't be stupid, its an elicit drug that has sever health hazards. How can you even expect me to believe what you're saying when it goes against common moral.

Pros: None

Cons: Corrosion of Health, overuse=Death

Do you need me to put it in another format.

Answer 3

The problem is this:  You may not be able to do it just every few days.  You may find that you are using it every day and then it is VERY hard to quit.  My advice:  quite now while you can (assuming you can).  Richard Pryor made a humorous but funny comment that tells the truth of the matter.  He said, "Cocaine?  Why cocaine isn't addicting.  I have friends who have used cocaine everyday for ten years and they aren't addicted!  Addiction creeps up on you.  If you could see it coming, then very few people would be addicted.  The problem with coke is that it is subtle.  Not worth it; believe me.

Answer 4

I can't really see how cocaine would be good in any way, shape or form. Sure, you feel good for awhile, but then when it wears off, you're even more miserable. And, after awhile, you're going to need more of it to experience the same feeling. It's definitely not something to get into. Eat chocolate or something if you want a pleasant feeling!

Answer 5

One of the cons is that your using cocaine on a regular basis distorts your thinking process; you start to act differently, which affects everybody in your life.  You can mess up a lot of people while you don't even notice because you can't even see it.  Everybody will be worried except you.

Answer 6

Most people do not and cannot remain casual users.  Sooner or later, most people become addicts.  And trust me, if you become an addict, you will loose almost everything you have.  That is a really huge con.

Answer 7

Well the PROs really only apply for the first few dozen times then it's all about the CONS after that which include addiction, loss of family and friends, homelessness, mental retardation, rotting the cartilage from your nose and requiring facial reconstruction and death.

Answer 8

I promise.  I won't * complain * that you're retarded.
