He's just feeding the crow by over dosing like that.

Stone the Crow 

To lash out at the evidence of your deathly state.

“Well, stone the crows!” Basically, “I am so dead and all that’s left to do is fight to keep the buzzards from eating my flesh”. To stone the crow is pointless, because a crow only attacks you if you are dead. (You can’t literally throw stones at it if you’re dead), but it’s like panicking about the future and directing your anger about your misfortune and imminent death out towards something as harmless as a bird just because it reminds you of your awful predicament. We should never stone the proverbial crow, even if we are practically dead already, died before or are dead inside. In other words “don’t trip on small things when you have bigger fish to fry”. Or “don’t curse your fate or it’ll curse you.”
The injured warrior stumbled into camp and an opportunistic mate yelled “stone the crow! You’re in bad shape.”

"Haven't you heard? That book's terrifying! No way I'm reading it."

The Black Crow 

During a threesome with 2 women, the 2 women will be doggystyle next to each other. You will lube up the outside of their thighs. While fingerblasting both of them from the back, you thrust your penis in between both of their thighs. When you're about to cum, you flap your arms like a bird while slapping both of their asses at the same time, exclaiming CA-CAAW CA-CAAW while you nut on their backs.
Amber and Melissa wanted to go out for chicken after they got The Black Crow experience last night.
