Tijuana
A microcosm of American empire building in Baja California - the part of Mexico they forgot to steal way back when.
Apart from the main drag that lasts about 200 yards, filled with bars, strip clubs and pharmacies (children selling chewing gum on the streets optional), there is literally nothing there. Walk one block either side, and it's like stepping into the Third World, before returning to $1 bottles of Dos Equis in chintzy bars set up for American tourists, students, and people that can't afford a trip to Mexico City or Cancun.
Still, it's the shortest border check on the planet - they don't bother checking, as they know you aren't smuggling anything into the country. It's returning to the US that has the usual body cavity searches...

cets
1. A place where embittered and unhelpful wastes of time work, telling you how to get a shitty job and deny you the opportunity to work where you want. This ignores the fact that they were on a course there and had no chance of getting a job themselves, so decided to work there and generally take out their frustrations on the poor sods stuck there.
2. Home of most New Deal courses, unemployable chavs and bigots, and an overhanging sense of despair.

"For the next six months you will be placed at the nearest CETS Centre and patronised until you can't be fucked to play along, while surrounded by ignorance on a scale not seen since the last BNP conference." (paraphrased, of course)

Ketamine
A, frankly, boring drug that you have to snort in enormous amounts to get into a k hole, but more often than not you'll sneeze after a couple of nostrils full and revert back to normal, feeling ripped off.
Besides, who the hell first thought that it would be a good idea to snort animal tranquilisers in the first place?!? There's a place for special k, and it's Battersea Dogs' Home.
