150. Wokeism, Advice to Teens and the Dangers of Casual Relationships | Jordan Peterson EP. 150

"Cocaine, it's like great for a week ... Not so good iterated over 20 years. Alcohol's the same way. Casual sex is the same way. Any of those. We all know this. There isn't anyone who doesn't know these things."

    I actually am not a fan of any of those things. Never tried cocaine though and don't plan on it.

    Jordan Peterson should fuck off and die though

      cocaine is one of the least fun drugs i have ever done and i recommend it to precisely nobody

      it's just spending a few minutes out of every 20 or so going and doing more cocaine, it's expensive and it sucks

      Coke is incredibly addictive, expensive, and has a shitty comedown. I’ve got too much addiction in my family and I’ve already seen too many friends struggle with it as well. Not for me

        Everyone i know who has done it says the same thing and says they think it sucks as a drug

          I learned early on that if all the people who do a drug tell you not to do it, listen to them. Never smoked cigarettes either for the same reason. Weed and shrooms for me

        Also not getting ripped off is basically impossible outside of Miami. It's like a one-time drug for poor people and a party mainstay for rich losers with no other personality traits.

      At one of my first jobs, doing sales, my manager told me I should do coke because it would improve my sales. I have avoided it ever since.

      I fully agree with this sentiment. Peterson sometimes says things I would agree with but in the dumbest, weirdest way possible. I don't like drugs and alcohol, and I find the idea of having sex with someone I don't know or want to have a deep relationship with repulsive. His condescension makes me really consider all those positions carefully.

        I had a FWB for a couple years, we were both in sorta transitory periods and never really tried taking it farther than enjoying each other's company because we both wanted different things out of life, she did get a little jealous when we stopped seeing each other because I started dating someone I really liked but there were no hard feelings in the long run.

          I don't really see why you mention this. I don't want a relationship like that or a hook up thing or a one night stand. Your experience has not bearing on this.
