I just found this article while browsing the web on my awesome Windows Mobile Pocket PC.  After reading it aloud, we deemed it humorous, and I would like to share.  Hopefully some of the humor remains since I am positive that my sensationalistic voice reading probably added some lulz.

(CBS) NEW YORK Parents who think their teens' online conversations with peers are innocent may want to reconsider. A new study shows 1 in 10 of their messages discuss drugs or sex.

The messages are posted on common online message boards.

"'Crunked' is like the cool way of saying 'I got drunk,'" said 19-year-old Lucky O'Donnell. "'Scag' is one of the harder ones to figure out and that's heroin."

O'Donnell knows the risks all too well. He went online to find out where to get cocaine. He's now in recovery.

"Mostly it was, where are we going to meet up to get it," he said in reference to scoring some cocaine.

 Digg This Story!

A new study by Caron Treatment Centers finds 1 in 10 messages analyzed involved teens seeking advice from their peers on how to take illicit drugs "safely" and without getting caught.

One reads: "Let's go candy flipping tonight" -- another term for using ecstasy.

The study also found several other messages pertaining to sexual activity.

"All these terms are ways to get around the eye of people who may be monitoring your conversations," O'Donnell said.

Then there's the online lingo for marijuana. There's "420," "51" and "A-Bomb." Experts say most parents have never heard of them. One other term mentioned frequently, "pre-game." It describes the practice of getting drunk before parties.

In the messages, teens confessed to destructive behavior while they were under the influence.

"It's very, very frightening," said Dr. Harris Stratyner of the Caron Treatment Center.

In the messages, while few teens expressed any regret, many chalked it up to having a good time.

"A tremendous amount of talk about hooking up, bigger and better highs," Stratyner said.

As for advice for parents, you may want to crack down hard on your child's online activities.

"Everybody wants to trust their child, but sometimes children aren't to be trusted," O'Donnell said.

So "PAW" -- parents are watching -- may be just what teenagers need.

PARENTS ARE WATCHING

You see, it's clever because they made up their own lingo to match up to cutting edge terms like "420" and "pre-gaming."

I bet PD's mom would freak out over this and never let him go online again.

That article is dumb.  Candy flipping is taking acid and ecstasy at the same time.

What does "51" or "A-Bomb" have to do with marijuana?

URBAN DICTIONARY SAYS

51: A joint made of 51% weed and 49% cocaine.

A-BOMB:  a mixture of drugs, usually marijuana and a narcotic

WAITING FOR THE MIRACLE:  Having someone eat out your ass while you sing the titular Leonard Cohen song, and then surprise pooping in the other person's mouth whenever you deem that they have waited long enough for "the miracle."
