"Drug": 1940s- US Black slang: exhausted, disinclined, bored (from verb "drag"). Thus sayeth my slang dictionary.

You could have told me "Oswald" and I would have believed it. But you didn't abuse that trust.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:52pm

And the verb "drag" apparently in the sense of "to irritate, to bore, to bring down" (1940s- US slang). Which also connects with the noun "a drag".
  3:52pm
Hep in the Country:

OMG, that's a good guess: "drug" could well have been past tense for "drag" among Sausalito type cats in that remote era. Hence: I was drug = I was subjected to a real drag.

So, "drug" = adjective, "drag" = verb, "a drag" = noun. Now we can use the hep cat terminology in all its forms.

And for health and safety reasons, be vigilant so you can distinguish between hep cats and cats with hep.

rrg - a (semi professional) answer to this and many other related questions non-programmers ask: probably because it was easier to do it this way. building robust web apps like the live comments and Friendship Society can be nuanced, expensive, and time consuming... very very often less than perfect interactions like that are there only because they work well enough and its not worth the time and money to improve a feature that's less than perfect, but gets the job done.

@Jeff: There has never been an "auto-redirect" after posting a comment.
@Revolution Rabbit: Separating playlist from comments isn't going to happen, but a different change is afoot that might make GIF-heavy playlists less taxing.

@RRN63: nope, have looked for anything I'm the least bit qualified for, but nothing. I was accepted into a thing where a professional whose only job is looking for jobs for specific people finds you a job, and he announced after 3 months that he was cancelling things, because even he could not find anyone in his group jobs because no-one in the area is hiring. Attempts to do SOMETHING went awry when even all 6 openings for cleaning women in the area announced that you need a driving licence and your own car to do the job. No car: no job. So yeah, no specific skillset or pay range demands, just literally no work, except for people with cars or high training in welding or other such skills. *sigh*
