The part where the junkie's eye bursts because they put cleaning supplies in the dope made me dry heave. I think it's because I hadn't eaten anything at the time and I'm always kinda susceptible to that shit when I have an empty stomach. But yeesh, that was hard to read through at the time. In retrospect, a very enjoyable section.

Also, Joelle van Dyne general
