Found a heroin addict strung out in a McDonalds toilet.

    Popped into McDonalds at Nutgrove shopping centre yesterday evening.
    Was around 7.30pm
    There were one or two people at the counter so I decided I pay a quick visit to the jacks and wash my hands before eating. So there I was washing my hands when from behind I could hear a sort of gurgling sound and short breaths. Some of the McDonalds cubicle toilet doors only cover half the door. From underneath I could see a guy in the fetal position in only his boxer shorts. It sounded like he was crying at first. The door was locked. I was freaking out thinking this guy had cut his wrists or something. I opened the door from the outside with my car key to open the latch. He was lying there blue in the face and from what I gather he had injected into his testicle. Syringe on the ground with small drops of blood. Grabbed the manager quicky and they phoned an ambulance. It was freaky and the place was packed with kids.. The services arrived very quicky and were in there with him for about 10 mins or so he walked out to the ambulance.
    just thought Id post one of those things you dont deal with often.

    I was in McDonalds on Grafton Street a couple of weeks back and there was a syringe just sitting on top of on the toilets in a cubicle. I went outside and tried to explain to one of the guys working there but he didn't understand, asked to speak to the manager and he shows up after about five minutes, really pissed looking. Told him there was a syringe in the toilets and he shrugged his shoulders, said he'd 'sort it' and walked off. Didn't seem bothered at all, so I'd imagine it's a regular thing.

    I think you have to find three syringes and one junkie to qualify for a free burger.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Poor guy - even if "it was his choice" (and I'd prefer to find out about his life before coming to that simplistic conclusion) he's being well punished for it now. What a distressing, saddening sight... :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,324 ✭✭✭Alter-Ego


    Went to take a leak in Burger King on O'Connell street one day and there was a junkie cleaning his syringe in the sink.

    True Story...

    Burger King tends to attract more considerate and cleaner addicts alright.

    Anyone know what sort frequent Supermacs?

    Apparently no one leaves supermacs hungry (their new ad).
    Has anyone tried this if they have no money?

    Cabbage & TK red lemonade addicts.

    Such is life....I was more worried that he had overdone it...fooking state of his face. Blue and white. He looked extremely rough at that stage.
    I didnt exactly want to be doing anything but stand over him. Know it sounds terrible but there was blood around. Jesus could you imagine.

    Knowing home the junkie will get a lawyer to sue the OP's ass for invasion of privacy in the jacks and sexual voyeurism and he will get free legal aid and the OP will probably lose because of the pinko libtards running the judicial system.

    If it were me I'd have left the scummer overdose, it would be one more off the streets and there would be the dole saving and every other misfortunes he costs the state.

    What type of heroine was she? Like, did she save a load of kids from a burning building? If so, then I don't really mind that she's an addict.

    We are all victims of circumstance. It might be better to not judge this unfortunate person without knowing the circumstances that led to him becoming a drug addict.

    That post is so stupid I'd actually be embarrassed for you - if it wasn't for the fact that it's also hateful. And "libtard", "pinko" - thought only comedians taking the piss out of people with views like yours used those terms...

    Ah yeah of course....that it just leave him there. He's a human as am I.

    Thats where you and I would differ. The first part of you post is just sad.

    How dare you! That junkie worked DAMN hard to buy the heroin!

    I think a spoon, a lighter, a syringe and some heroin may of been contributing factors to his drug addiction.

    Junkie parents, neglect, in and out of care, hopelessness - those things too (when people from comfortable backgrounds say they'd have done things differently if they were him, it's always funny).
    Then again maybe he had a good life and was just misguided enough to try heroin, but he's damn well being punished enough now...

    I suggested neglect as a factor - said nothing about where the guy could be from, or that you're guaranteed to succumb to heroin if you're surrounded by it.

    Could letting your kids out to play in such a neighbourhood and to houses of such people be considered neglect?
