How to look like a junkie

MadPatrick

I'm going to a dress up 30th birthday party, catch is you have to dress as something starting with J or P, so I'm going as a junkie. I got the pants and the cheap t shirt. I'll make little bags of pill looking sweets, brown sugar and flour.

But what else can I do?? Help me be the junkiest junkie in Sydney.

Any tips would be appreciated, I have access to random girl make up

Snowie

get really stoned

WindSock

Squint your eyes, make your words drawl and knock out half of your teeth. And lose about 3 stone.

Use this dude for inspiration

delllat

syringe hanging out of your arm

roll your eyes completey back into your head and assume a position like ur taking a dump in mid air

Dragan

Become the lead singer for The Libertines/Babyshambles.

Job done.

useful_contacts

Draw dots on ur arms to look like needle marks...

maybe buy one of those fake cuts in a novelty shop to look like you were in a fight

only wear one shoe and make sure the visable sock is holey

put talcum powder under ur nose

GrahamThomas

Get one of those bootleg t-shirts of Bart Simpson wearing a Celtic jersey, taking a p*ss on a Rangers jersey. Doesn't get much scummier that that TBH!

johnny_knoxvile

Get an Amy Winehouse wig.

toiletduck

the_syco

Wear that stripey stuff the knackers like. Wear lots of fake jewelery (has to be fake).

Boom_Bap

Learn to fall asleep standing up on a busy street.

Always point when talking.

Degsy

Buy a short-sleeved check shirt from dunnes and a pair of beige trousers to go with them..only junkies wear this outfit.

The junkies where I used to live wandered the roads shaking and eating from tubs of ice cream, the only thing they could keep down. So, get a big tub of cheap ice cream and bounce about a bit.

Wearing all the apparell posted above, you will require 1 more essential accessorie.

Take some random kid with you & drag them all over the place while roaring like a lunatic & sweating like a pig.

If really want to get into character, go around stealing peoples mobile phones & handbags.

Or maybe get a t-shirt printed with this image & the slogan "coke is for pussys, i'm havin the craic" or the old reliable "smile i'm on heroin"

Just go as a setting sun.

antodeco

When you walk, be at a slight angle and do a kind of skip-jog when. Jacket over arm as you hold a can/plastic bag. Grow a moustache if you can (in a short time, not because of puberty!)

az2wp0sye65487

Walk on the balls of your feet, imagine that if your heels touch the ground, you'll die! and maintain a constant scowl on your face....


Also, be careful not to look too genuine, in case the cops take an interest in you, especially as you'll be carrying fake drugs!

Degsy

When telling lies,swear to God constantly and elaborately "cross your heart and hope to die"..say also things like "I swear on me mother's life"

Borneo Fnctn

Could you not just rent a junkie to impersonate you? It would work out an awful lot cheaper.

Dlite

Get penny jellies and tie them to your belt.

stovelid

Get on stage with Aslan.

InkSlinger67

Wear pyjamas, sovereign rings and T-bar chains. Also, wear a waistbelt just above your elbow keeping it tight with your teeth

Finally, say "Story Bud!" a lot and end all your sentences with "Wha?" e.g. "Story Bud! Some weather we're having these days wha?"

gazzer

Carry a bottle of YOP (Doesnt matter what flavour) Junkies love YOP. They were always buying it in the shop I used to work in .

MrMatisse

White socks, tracksuit bottoms that are too short, manky old baseball cap, multiple gold chains around your neck ( Helps if one has gold boxing gloves hangin on it) sovereign rings,celtic jersey, Really expensive nike air max with loads of air bubbles that are a few sizes too big but are in surprisingly good condition. Tight haircut, lots of dax wax with your fringe glued to your forehead, moustace, tatoo with the name Sharon or Nikita, possibly Natalie on your neck and an AnTO or Deco tatoo on your knuckles.

And of course stink of piss.

FYP

MrMatisse

heres a few more ideas

meboloxitis

They are also quite fond of Kinder Bueno & Carameelllloooooo's

If you need some research check out adam & paul on youtube or if in Dublin park outside one of the many methadone clinics around the city & observe.

Better than safari I swear! Just keep the windows up, caution is advised if you attempt to approach one in his/her natural habitat (If he/she has teeth, they may bite!)

stovelid

Saw a junkie-type in the shop once buying about 20 quids worth of sweets, a yoghurt drink and a big roll of tin foil.

Alrite.

Puke first thing when ya walk in too...

My mate dressed up as one before ... he dragged his trousers round the garden to cover them in dirt to get them stained and used cheap brown twine as a belt.

Try spilling loads of food down the t-shirt ... and use black facepaint to paint your teeth, so it looks like they're missing.

Oh, and get yourself a hat - the beanie hats all the hobos seem to have!

Might also find yourself a box for sleeping in and old newspapers

These are definitely required for authenticity
