Get the Pirate mug.When a drug(primary Methamphetamine) addiction completely consumes your life; altering your physical appearance and behavior to replicate that of a "classic pirate." Usually involves, Dark under eyes(from lack of sleep), dirty clothes, dirty body, and rotten teeth(from lack of personal care). Can be a wanderer, just "sailing" from place to place. Usually seeking/stealing/begging for anything they can get their hands on of any value; for future trade of drugs. Always "carpet surfing" for a free sparkly shard by spending all day, everyday trying to find that treasure.
