Philip K. Dick

UBIK is easily his best book, followed by A Scanner Darkly and then Flow My Tears (imo).

Been thinking about picking up an amphetamine habit. Is it worth it? Or am I better off with an opiate habit, a la Coleridge and Burroughs?

Don't do either you fucking mong. Smoke grass.

That's fucking lame. Every other Chad out there is a stoner. Cannabis isn't a very literary drug, unless in the form of hashish, especially when combined with opium.

Do you want a miserable life? Because you don't want to be addicted to a substance.

Ubik is a good action story but it's not his best book (that would be Flow My Tears... or The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch)

You gotta be kidding me

Plebs.

This, I thought the "Taverner being so desperate for human contact he hugs a random guy at the gas station" bit was surprisingly poignant for a pulpy SF, but otherwise shaky execution of a great concept. We Can Build You is probably his worst tho.

Fun fact: PKD once managed to overdose on Vitamin C
