>>15644044I didn't understand it until I was older and had seen it happen with multiple dudes, but sometimes crazy dysfunctional strung out drunks and drug addicts don't do anymore drugs or even do less drugs than your normal self-medicating user. The crazy dysfunctional really visible addict guys were usually nuts before the drugs, and a lot of them are permanent lightweights. Wrestling is full of guys who did drugs until they needed drugs to feel normal, but no Jake stories are like that, Jake is always completely gone, begging to drink piss to prove his allegiance.
I think he was basically one of those beer guys that can't drink whiskey, to use an old alcoholic saying. Other guys probably did a larger volume of drugs, though Jake probably had most people beat on variety.
