Do you feel that there is a connection between the creative arts and drug culture in any way? If so, how?
not necessarily because it makes you more creative, but more because the art scene and the drug scene overlap. and there's an element of experimentation of course and i think that people who like to experiment with art also like to experiment in other aspects of their life.

hell no. although some music is better with whiskey. i listen to stuff that isn't gay.

Do you feel that drug use is glorified in the world of creative arts? If so, please circle which aspect of the creative arts you feel glorifies drug use.

i think it's all dependent on the person experiencing the "creative art". one person will find it great while another will find it a total turn off. person specific.
i left out some drugs i did accidentally or just did one time only. there was a period of time where i'd do anything you put in front of me.
