There sure seems to be a lot of confusion on just what these
drugs are. Especially crank and crack.
As I understand it, crank is crystal methamphetamine, and
crack is cocaine in smokable form. Maybe there's confusion
because the two words sound the same.
They're ALL "speed" in my vocabulary.
Is there really a lot of cocaine abuse? I -never- hear of it
where I live, but hear about meth all the time. What does
a gram of cocaine sell for these days?

Re: Coke? Meth? Crank? Crack?
Fri, February 11, 2005 - 12:11 PMdepend on where you are. In Colorado it used to be 80 a gram. Now-a-days you can get an 8-ball (1/8th of an ounce) from 100-150
categorizing crank and crack in the same category is kind of off. From my terminology, crank is actually low-grade crystal. Crack is, as you said, a hyped-up version of coke. The main difference is that crack lasts for about 30 seconds and crystal(crank) for up to a couple of hours.
I wouldn't consider crack a "speed" its more euphoric -

Re: Coke? Meth? Crank? Crack?
Mon, April 4, 2005 - 6:20 PMCoke: Cocaine. Back when I was using it was about 90 for an eightball (some ten years ago).
Meth: Crystal Methamphetimine. One line and you're up for three days and crashing for a fourth. I only did it a handful of times. I watched a sister get pretty strung out on it and that scared me away from it.
Crank: Bathtub Speed. Twelve hours of chewing the inside of your cheeks. YUCK
Crack: I only did this stuff twice. There are a lot of methods for whipping up a batch, but the most common I've seen is boiling a tube of coke and Baking Soda in tap water until it solidifies, patting it dry, and inhaling it. Short high, bad crash.
First post here. I'm glad to see this tribe exists. People need to realize that phreaks can exist without stimulants.
I agree with what Creature H sez about crack (and, for that matter, coke imho) being a euphoric. That's the danger of it. Just one more little rock and that euphoria is *almost* back. To this day I leave the room when the little bindles, zip locks, and/or glass pipes come out. Strangely, since I stopped actively playing in bands I have only seen it once at Burning Man. Thank god. People are much more interesting when I'm not just waiting for my turn to talk. -

Unsu...
free base
Mon, April 4, 2005 - 6:26 PMI thought that free basing is when you rock up cocaine through a purification process... where as crack gets cut with some filler to make more profit... -

Re: Coke? Meth? Crank? Crack?
Tue, May 17, 2005 - 3:14 AMspeed = crank = meth = crystal = criddle = shards = ice = glass = dope = shit = poop!
it was always speed, and i don't care if you say that crystal is the "dank" speed, it is still and will always be SHIT.
crack isn't technically speed, but sure enough speed is often smoked through - you guessed it! - a crack pipe.
and of course, good luck on telling a crackhead apart from a truly tweaked out individual - they redefine 'cracked out' imo.
man this topic is depressing...
