    They're really not so much rude as informal. There's a difference.
    Would you be offended if I called you a crackhead?
    No, of course not, you pot-toking slag! Obviously it's not flattering, but there is a difference between unappealing and offensive/vulgar/rude. It's not at all like calling someone a f*g, a motherf*cker, a c*nt, a pr*ck, etc.
    I wasn't trying to compare their rudeness to motherf*cker or anything like that. They aren't vulgar, but at least they're offensive.

    Meh. We'll have to agree to disagree I suppose; it's really splitting hairs any way. My original objection was to "pretty rude" but eh, whatever. Point taken, but I still am entrenched in my own correctness.

    Well at least we know that Charlestoneian is not a drug user because if he was he would not think that calling someone a junkie or pothead is offensive.

    Here's the scoop.

    junkie......................heroin addict
    pothead...................marijuana user
    speed freak...............preference for amphetamines

    And heres a selection of terms I found:

    * SERIAL SPEEDBALLING: Sequencing cocaine, cough syrup and heroin over a 1 to 2 day period.
    * A- BOOT: Under the influence of drugs
    * AGONIES: Withdrawal symptoms
    * CHALKED UP: Under the influence of cocaine
    * HEAVEN AND HELL: PCP
    * PHARMING: Consuming mixture of prescription substances
    * TARDUST: Cocaine
    * TWEAK MISSION: On a mission to find crack
    * WAKE UPS: Amphetamines
    * SACRAMENT: LSD
    * HIGHBEAMS: Wide eyes associated with taking crack
    * PAPER BAG: Container for drugs
    * TEX-MEX: Marijuana
    * SAM: Federal narcotics agent
    * CARPET PATROL: Crack smokers searching the floor for crack
    * HALF A FOOTBALL FIELD: 50 rocks of crack
    * AMPHEAD: LSD user
    * AUTHOR: Doctor who writes illegal prescriptions
    * ARE YOU ANYWHERE: Do you use marijuana
    * CLOSET BASER: User of cocaine that prefers anonymity
    * HONEYMOON: Early stages of drug use before addiction
    * MISS: To inject a drug
    * HYPE STICK|: Hypodermic needle
    * PIGGYBACKING: Simultaneous injecting of two different drugs
    * TOKE: To inhale cocaine or smoke marijuana
    Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade where I choose, free to choose my own teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to talk, think and act for myself. - Chief Joseph, Nez Perce

    What is your problem dude? Why are you talking about me? Did I bother you? Did I say anything about them being offensive or not offensive???
    Jesus Christ... How many more a**holes are in this forum???
    Go back to whatever you've been smoking.
    Well, I don't know what to say. I want to say thanks to the Academy, to Mama, to Papa and to my dog. I love you all.

    Перед истерикой обратил бы внимание на то, что DDT выделил жирным шрифтом.
