Becoming an addict is STupid.  It's hard to believe an intelligent person would let that happen unless they wanted to appear more human and decrease the hero worship!

I have friends who are way more intelligent than me that are addicts. Its not about smart/stupid.

WTF?

You're referencing his post and not mine, correct?

Yes.  The bolded statement.  I agree with yours and am offended by his.

So Jerry was stupid then?  How about known cokehead Sigmund Freud?  Or alcoholics like Ernest Hemingway?

Clearly, they were all morons.    :roll:

i haven't read this book, but your post made me think of it:

What is the price of brilliance?

Why are so many creative geniuses also ruinously self-destructive? From Caravaggio to Jackson Pollack, from Arthur Rimbaud to Jack Kerouac, from Charlie Parker to Janis Joplin, to Kurt Cobain, and on and on, authors and artists throughout history have binged, pill-popped, injected, or poisoned themselves for their art. Fully illustrated and addictively readable, Genius and Heroin is the indispensable reference to the untidy lives of our greatest artists and thinkers, entertainingly chronicling how the notoriously creative lived and died—whether their ultimate downfalls were the result of opiates, alcohol, pot, absinthe, or the slow-motion suicide of obsession.

c'mon guys, let's stay focused.
this thread is for debating whether or not Trey was a junkie for most of the 2000s or if it was some elaborate hoax to earn cool points with the fan base.
