The Sun has deliberately picked the outlier year for heroin deaths to claim such a big rise. Equally, it can be claimed that heroin deaths are DOWN 10% since 2001, if I were to cherry-pick to show something different.
As it happens, coke deaths are up 20% year on year, and heroin 8%.

I've heard people at parties say in all seriousness that only an addict would think to carry a straw. Because god knows, thinking ahead means you have a problem.
And apparently using a filthy dollar bill because you "never do drugs" and "had no idea coke would be at the party" means you're a rocket scientist.
Hep-C instead of admitting you like to get wasted (just like everyone else who drinks, smokes pot or takes pills).
Awesome.

If my immune system were so compromised that I'm worrying about catching germs from money, I could run my currency through the wash like the nuns at Georgetown Visitation used to, but I draw the line at ironing.
I guess there's just something really trad about using a rolled-up Benjamin. Or if you can find one, a Silver Certificate.

see what I did there, but no, really, it's true. He has a couple of "outside" children; one with a fetching AfroFrench air hostess and one with some Californian.
