Black Beauties
CLIFFS: Black Beauties were basically Adderall.
"Black beauty" was a drug street-name used in the '60s and '70s to refer to a pill of pharmaceutical amphetamine (aka speed). Strictly speaking, a black beauty was a tablet of Biphetamine, manufactured by Strasenburgh Labs, then Pennwalt Corporation, and finally Fisons Corporation, before finally being pulled from the market in 1998. Chemically speaking, it was composed of an even, racemic mixture of dextro- and levo- amphetamine, very similar to today's Adderall. Contrary to what other definitions might say, both the d- and l- isomers of amphetamine are active and "fun." In fact, while d-amp is technically the stronger isomer, the racemic d/l mixtures are actually more stimulating, more abusable, and create more of a drug "high."
The term "black beauty" was also extended to include Biphetamine-T, which was a ridiculously abusable mixture of the aforementioned amphetamines, plus methaqualone (aka Quaalude). Both Biphetamine mixtures were available in 12.5mg and 20mg tablets.
Black Beauties were popular in the 60s and 70s, especially following post-war eras, when it stopped being shipped to our soldiers overseas and suddenly built up as a surplus on the home front. This amphetamine surplus eventually trickled out onto the streets where it was consumed recreationally. Amphetamines were not made illegal to buy without a prescription until 1965, so amphetamine use at the time was widely considered a cheap, legal alternative to cocaine, and its abuse wasn't considered taboo. It wasn't uncommon for housewives of the '50s and '60s to secretly pop speed pills and proceed to go on marathon 8-hour cleaning sessions. Amphetamine use continued rather uninhibited until that asshole Nixon came into office and passed the Controlled Substances Act in 1970 (aka the law under which all street drugs are now illegal) and "The War on Drugs" was born. Pharmaceutical amphetamine abuse dwindled after that, and all the speed pills of the '60s and '70s began to disappear off the market. By the late '90s, most pills were just a distant memory. Of course, the past decade has brought a sudden rash of ADD/ADHD cases (or diagnoses rather), so now we're in the middle of a new speed "epidemic." Kids everywhere are once again abusing uppers (Ritalin/Adderall/Dexedrine) just like your parents abused black beauties in the early '70s.

The term "black beauties" specifically refers to Biphetamine, but more loosely refers to the myriad of amphetamine combo pills that your hippie parents abused when they were young. The definition can be further loosened to include the amphetamine + barbituate combos of the day. Fun notables include Desbutal (methamphetamine + pentobarbital) and Dexamyl (dex-amphetamine + amobarbital). With the modern-day legal crackdown on amphetamines, and the near complete extinction of barbituates (after the introduction of benzos), all these wildly abusable pills have ceased to exist, and remain only as figments of your parents' memories.

beauticide
All girls inevitably commit the self-destructive act of beauti-cide. Deciding to throw caution to the wind, and ignore the input of the opposite sex, women will eventually take matters into their own hands and perform a visual downgrading to their own looks.
Egged on by other already shitty looking friends, the hot girl will sooner or later, cut off her hair, add bangs, or start doing her makeup like shit. It’s inevitable and when it occurs, the woman makes a land speed record from hot –to- Not.
The most common occurrences come when a woman somehow convinces her self that short mousy hair is hotter than her long hair. Men all over the earth know this to be a myth, but men are powerless to stop the beauti-cide pheonomenon. What women don’t often understand, is that cutting your hair short, or cutting bangs makes their ass get fatter instantly.
The girls attractiveness and ability to attract males instantly drops by 20%.
Somehow, other women still encourage their peers into this masochistic act and the women blindly follow like lemmings off the cliff from sexy, to mom’sville. It appears all someone needs to say is “your fabulous” like some bizarre entry into a sex-and-the city set; and women will willfully destroy their beauty. Like a rebellious angry teenager they just piss on their sexiness for no apparent benefit other than to be true to their nature: bitches.
