[[caption-width-right:330: The Good Shepherd sure knows how to party.]]

->''"First, I want to walk into a bar and drink it. And then I'm going to start a fight with five men and win. And then I am going to make use of a truly staggering number of prostitutes. Some of whom I may have once been married to. Following which, I will buy drugs. I will, in fact, show them a large pillowcase, and tell them to fill it with drugs. And I'm putting it all on the goddamn expense account."''
-->-- '''Mitchell Royce''', ''ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}}''

A typical way to show that some characters have fallen into decadence is to show them being highly promiscuous and doing lots of drugs. Sometimes this can even lead to a character's downfall (if the protagonist), or outright death (if a villain or supporting character).

This became an especially popular thing in TheEighties because other displays of [[ConspicuousConsumption excessive wealth]] were considered a good thing (even FurAndLoathing didn't signify decadence all the time). But with an awareness of AIDS and the message of DrugsAreBad, this trope became a great way to show characters falling from grace.

The term is common slang for what some politicians, celebrities, and {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s like to have at parties.[[note]]Also the single funniest response to the job interview question "What are your weaknesses?", next to [[Franchise/{{Superman}} "Kryptonite"]], although the latter doesn't guarantee losing you the job.[[/note]] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine,_women_and_song Wine, women, and song]] is an older, related term.

For extra depravity, have the cocaine snorted off of the hooker's ass and/or breasts.

SexDrugsAndRockAndRoll is a SubTrope where this happens to rockers. A BingeMontage is a common way to portray a night like this.

[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* In the '80s anime, ''The Professional'', Manga/{{Golgo 13}}'s target in San Francisco, Bernart Muller, is an ex-Nazi who is partying with hookers in a penthouse sealed in bulletproof glass.
* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' Jiraiya takes Naruto's money, claiming he wants to protect [[ChildrenAreInnocent Naruto from this trope]]. Naruto later finds him in a bar, drunk off his ass and entertaining two prostitutes.[[note]] Well, OK, it's not explicitly said that they're prostitutes, given that this is an anime geared towards middle-school-aged boys, but it's implied.[[/note]] This is an especially jarring example because Jiraiya is actually a very wealthy man, yet [[KickTheDog he stole Naruto's money to fund his vices]] (and Naruto is very poor).
* Rod Ross' [[TheMafia mafia gang]] in ''Manga/DeathNote'' was involved with selling drugs, and had a steady string of women implied to be prostitutes snuggling up with the higher-ups (except Mello, who wasn't interested).
* When Caesar Clown in ''Manga/OnePiece'' realized that the gigantification experiments Big Mom asked him to do were impossible, he started using the money on "alcohol and groupies" instead. This was as bright an idea as one would expect embezzling from one of the [[TheDreaded Four Emperors]] to be.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Comic Books]]
* In the indie comic ''Pirate Corp$'', two characters on their way into a Mega Mart jokingly yell "ALL THE WHORES AND OPIUM WE CAN CARRY!"
* In the ''ComicBook/EarthX'' trilogy, it's implied in ''Paradise X'' that this is [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Johnny Storm's]] ideal afterlife.
* In the ''ComicBook/SerenityBetterDays'' miniseries, the crew steals a fortune. The book contains DaydreamSurprise panels showing what each person says they'll do with their share. Zoe and Wash buy a cruise ship and raise a family on it, Kaylee opens an engine part shop that stocks entirely [[ContinuityNod compression coils]]. River does... [[http://fandomania.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/serenity2-003.jpg something interesting,]] etc. When they get to the Shepherd's, [[http://fandomania.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/serenity2-002.jpg it's not exactly what one would expect from a man of God.]] After seeing the crew's shocked looks, he explains that he was joking.
* As evidenced by the quote page, the better-off characters in ''ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}}'' much prefer this lifestyle. Heck, it's easier to count the pages where Spider isn't on drugs, hard for him to get laid though, while his filthy assistants have been known to order gigolos.
* Comicbook/{{X 23}}'s pimp, Zebra Daddy, in ''ComicBook/{{NYX}}'' is a drug dealer and sex trafficker in the [[BigRottenApple Flat-Iron District]]. The book establishes that he samples both his products.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
* A common trait amongst Creator/MartinScorsese's movies:
** ''Film/{{Goodfellas}}''. Henry Hill is portrayed as having various mistresses and, towards the end of the film when he's become a large-scale drug dealer, as having degenerated through [[GettingHighOnTheirOwnSupply getting high on his own supply]].
** ''Film/{{Casino}}''. In his voiceover, Ace Rothstein comments that Nicky Santoro and his crew became careless and sloppy through booze, "broads" and coke. The latter is illustrated by a famous shot from inside a giant straw hoovering up a line of Bolivia's finest.
** ''Film/GangsOfNewYork'', when they aren't fighting.
** Early in ''Film/TheWolfOfWallStreet'', Jordan's boss recommends a steady dose of "cocaine and hookers" as necessary for a successful Wall Street career. The remainder of the film more than delivers.
** Used liberally by Frank Costello in ''Film/TheDeparted''. Subsequent journalism revealed that "snort cocaine off hooker's ass" was on Creator/JackNicholson's real-life cinematic [[{{Pun}} bucket list]].
* ''Film/{{Scarface 1983}}'' pretty much runs on this trope, given the nature of Tony Montana's work and... leisure activities.
* Used in ''Film/LordOfWar'' - though, mostly, secondhand. After a particularly bad bit of business, the eponymous gunrunner's brother and business partner runs away and is later found in a hotel room having made a map of Ukraine out of cocaine, while two hookers lie passed out on his bed. Yuri Orlov himself also does an occasional line of coke, but never to the point of addiction.
* Charlie Wilson (a Member of Congress from Texas), in ''Film/CharlieWilsonsWar''. He's indicted and later acquitted of doing cocaine with strippers and a playboy model in Vegas. In RealLife he was known for his laid-back ways and liberal social views (and lifestyle -- hey, it was TheSeventies!) before he latched on to the UsefulNotes/SovietInvasionOfAfghanistan as a worthwhile pet issue.
* ''Franchise/RoboCop'':
** In ''Film/{{RoboCop|1987}}'', OCP executive Bob Morton is seen doing cocaine with ALadyOnEachArm shortly before getting blown up in his house. The assassin in question tells the ladies to leave first, though.
** In the sequel ''Film/RoboCop2'', the baddies include an organization that seems to be a hybrid illegal drug manufacturer and religious cult.
* ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'', though these ''are'' pirates we're talking about here.
* Jimmy, the dwarf actor from ''Film/InBruges'', makes good use of these in his free time. He's not rich or famous, but he's not a nice person either.
* Part of Brian Slade's downfall in ''Film/VelvetGoldmine''; he even gets a shot doing the standard snorting-blow-off-a-groupie's-ass technique.
* ''Suite 16'' revolves around an Amsterdam hustler who, after breaking into a hotel suite occupied by a rather depraved paraplegic man, agrees to act as the other man's proxy by indulging in all the tastes the other man used to indulge in (but now no longer can) while the other man watches him on a hidden network of cameras. At one point this involves a [[SexMontage montage]] of the hustler having vigorous coked-up sex with a number of oblivious attractive women.
* ''Film/AmericanPsycho'' rolls in this like a pig in slop.
* ''Film/SaintLaurent'': Yves Saint Laurent's life descends into decadence that includes plenty of coke-fueled dalliances with rent boys and gigolos. The rival film about his life, ''Film/YvesSaintLaurent'', is less focused on this period in his life but still portrays it.
* ''Film/TheSocialNetwork'''s version of Sean Parker really enjoys partying with drugs and girls who may or may not be underage; the cops eventually catch him about to snort cocaine off a sorority girl. The rest of the Facebook team (with the possible exception of Eduardo Saverin) gets a certain amount of this too, although even Eduardo uses Christy for sex.
* In ''Film/SmokinAces'', mobster and magician (no, seriously) Buddy "Aces" Israel, is shown ankle-deep in hookers and cocaine as he hides out in a Lake Tahoe hotel waiting for his lawyer to agree to a deal with the authorities for Israel to inform on other Mafiosi in exchange for his freedom. WordOfGod has it that the character was inspired by Frank Sinatra's dealings with the Mafia so it may be that Israel's lifestyle was informed by Sinatra's, which featured lots of hookers (but no blow).
* In ''Film/VeryBadThings'', hookers and blow (or, more specifically, ''a'' hooker and blow) at the bachelor party is what kick starts the PlethoraOfMistakes that drives the plot.
* In ''Film/TheBadLieutenantPortOfCallNewOrleans'', the DirtyCop protagonist has a HookerWithAHeartOfGold for a girlfriend, uses his position to extort sex, and spends the entire movie high on Vicodin, heroin, marijuana, crack cocaine, regular cocaine, or more than one of those at once.
* In ''Film/HorribleBosses'', Kurt's boss Bobby is a cokehead who brings prostitutes to work and has them at his house (one of which is a man).
* In ''Film/PainAndGain'', Paul during his addiction to cocaine does this with Sorina as the hooker.
* This is the lowlife villain's idea of the perfect Easter party in ''Film/EasterBunnyKillKill''.
* A hooker snorts drugs off her client's penis in ''Hanger''.
* Noburo Mori in ''Film/TheWolverine''. Okay, just hookers, but the principle is there.
* ''Film/{{Underground}}'' has the UsefulNotes/WorldWar2 Serbian gunrunners Marko and Blacky supplying the Communist resistance with their weapons, but using the money purely on booze and hookers.
* In ''Film/Downfall2004'', after Hermann Fegalein, Eva Braun's brother-in-law, is tracked down to be executed for abandoning his post during the battle of Berlin, he's found in a hotel used by [[ScrewTheWarWerePartying soldiers and civilians throwing a wild party]]. The room he's occupying he shares with a nude woman has booze bottles strewn about, and there are several lines of cocaine on a nearby dresser.
* In ''Film/SonOfAGun'', the party thrown by Sam to celebrate Lynch and Sterlo's escape from prison is literally full of hookers and blow. JR gets very uncomfortable and ends up joining Natasha for a trip to town for Chinese dumplings.
* In ''Film/{{Stiletto}}'', the bikers hold a celebration full of cocaine and willing women. Raina tries to take advantage of their distraction to attack, but the party turns out to be a ruse to lure her into a trap.
* ''Film/TheDemoniacs'': The morning after they loot the wreck, the SalvagePirates are at the local tavern celebrating with wine and whores.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Literature]]
* Creator/BretEastonEllis and the rest of the 1980s "Brat Pack" of young authors write/wrote frequently about extremely decadent characters. Ellis, in particular, portrays his characters (especially [[Literature/AmericanPsycho Patrick Bateman]]) as decadent to point of making [[TheCaligula Caligula]] look prudish.
* In the Lorenzo Carcaterra novel ''Literature/{{Sleepers}}'', one of the guards from the reformatory later becomes a crooked cop and it is strongly implied that womanizing and snorting coke are his primary pastimes.
* In ''Literature/LayerCake'', the protagonist, a cocaine dealer, generally restricts his use of the drug as an "aphrodisiac" and mentions attracting female partners with the appeal of high-quality cocaine. His associate [[ScaryBlackMan Morty]] pretty much has this as his hobby.
* ''Literature/WickedLovely'': The Dark Court likes to do this by their very nature as the "court of temptation."
%%* Lord Iron from "Literature/TheCambistAndLordIron" has this reputation.
* In the Literature/LeftBehind book ''Glorious Appearing'', the ArchangelGabriel repeats Joel 3:1-3 (see Myths & Religion below) in the Lord's judgment of the nations at the Valley of Jehoshaphat after Jesus' return.
* ''Literature/{{Repeat}}'' features protagonist Brad Cohen [[GroundhogPeggySue repeating his life on an infinite loop]]; having gotten the hang of profiting from his knowledge of the future, he spends at least one later iteration indulging in seemingly nothing but vice. As he reveals to the FBI, he's spent the last twenty years having sex with both male and female prostitutes, usually while doing coke and having things rammed up his backside. Bonus points for not only sorting coke off a stripper's breasts, but also for rubbing it into his penis while masturbating!
* ''Literature/TheStand'': Shortly before the Superflu outbreak, aspiring musician Larry Underwood finally hit it big with his single "Baby, Can You Dig Your Man?", and threw a massive party in a beach house he rented that lasted three days, and ended up putting him in debt with the drug dealer who supplied weed and cocaine for the party, because Larry had just told him to "keep it coming", so when the drugs ran low, he just showed up with more. The coke alone cost more than the advance Larry got from the record company, leading to Larry moving to his mother in New York to avoid the dealer until he had the money to pay him back. Of course, during his time there, the Superflu took hold and wiped out most of humanity, making the whole issue moot.
* In ''Literature/MermaidMoon'', seventeen-year-old Baron Peder has no interests besides [[ReallyGetsAround seducing peasant women]] and drinking wine. His mother, the witch Thyrla, has encouraged his tendencies towards shallow hedonism while discouraging any interest in anything practical or intellectual so she will always be able to control him.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
* In ''Series/{{Workaholics}}'' the characters are often drinking heavily and smoking pot, but tend to avoid hard drugs. In the episode "High Art" however, Ders and Adam have a night where they're given cocaine, and then spend the next day doing more cocaine and setting American flags on fire as they try to make one unburnable.
* Charlie on ''Series/{{Lost}}'' falls into this in flashbacks. Before that, he was a good Catholic boy who just wanted to make some music.
* Happens in ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' to an ''angel'' no less. Dean is flung a few years into the future to see the outcome of his choice of action. [[spoiler:They lost.]] Castiel is seen arranging orgies and doing drugs like there's no tomorrow. [[spoiler:Because there might not be. He's also been turned mortal.]]
* Played with in one episode of ''Series/{{House}}'' that featured the main patient purchasing cocaine from a drug dealer... in his sleep. His very specific form of somnambulism turns out to be one of the clues to what ails him, rather than a specific fall from grace. During that same scene, Thirteen is shown to know her blow, to the surprise of her partner in the investigation.
* Not exactly blow, but "Hey, now!" Hank Kingsley in ''Series/TheLarrySandersShow'' has been known to soothe his troubles through boozed-up sex marathons with prostitutes when the going gets tough.
* Following his father's death, Hank Moody of ''Series/{{Californication}}'' goes on a bigger bender than usual, finally crossing 'snort cocaine directly off a hooker' off his to-do list. Also, Lew Ashby on season two would literally die after spending the wrong moment with, you guessed it, hookers and blow. Also, Atticus Fetch on season six was pretty well in touch with this trope.
* ''Series/RealTimeWithBillMaher'' -- "Be More Cynical"
-->'''Bill Maher:''' George Bush's policy in South America was "crop replacement": Instead of growing cocaine, they should grow bananas and chrysanthemums. I don't know if you've ever tried to lure a stripper to your hotel room with a banana and a chrysanthemum, but let me tell you folks -- It's slow going.
* In one episode of ''Series/DeadLikeMe'', Daisy says something about Mason having snorted "blow off a dead hooker's stomach". He doesn't deny it and basically gets a look about him as if he doesn't wish to incriminate himself.
* ''Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|2003}}''. After a year in office, President Baltar is shown surrounded by bottles of pills and attractive female "interns" dressed in lingerie, signifying the corruption and incompetence of his administration.
* ''Series/TheColbertReport'':
** Invoked by Representative Robert Wexler at the 4:15 mark of [[http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/72021/july-20-2006/better-know-a-district---florida-s-19th---robert-wexler this clip]] when asked to say something that would lose him his upcoming election ([[ItMakesSenseinContext he was uncontested]]). This was inexplicably cited by actual journalists as an example of why politicians should be wary of going on the ''Report'' (and by extension ''Series/TheDailyShow''), as if Wexler had been the victim of ManipulativeEditing. Colbert asked him ''on camera, in character'' to say that he liked cocaine and hookers. [[DontExplainTheJoke That was the joke.]] In a rare example of Colbert going "out of character" as it were, he took the time to call out the media for essentially doing exactly what they were accusing him of doing.
** In another episode, he asked Congressman Dan Maffei (playing his own EvilTwin) to finish the following sentences: "I enjoy cocaine because..." and "I enjoy the company of prostitutes for the following reasons..."
* Chuck Bass after being dumped by Blair Waldorf on ''Series/GossipGirl''.
* Referenced in ''Series/{{Utopia}}'' as one of disgraced scientist Donaldson's vices.
* At least one episode of ''Series/{{Satisfaction}}'', which focuses on a group of Melbourne {{High Class Call Girl}}s, depicted this trope from the prostitute's point of view after one of them was hired to spend an evening with a booze-and-drugged up rock star.
* ''Series/PeakyBlinders'': Episode 2.04 has Arthur taking a bath (after [[spoiler:taking over Sabini's club]]) with two prostitutes, and he snorts lines of cocaine off the rim of the tub. All the more remarkable for being set in 1922.
* ''Series/LawAndOrder'' once had a (male) murder suspect's alibi turn out to be this. Offers a mild deconstruction, in that cocaine's RealLife tendency to [[TheLoinsSleepTonight interfere with the ability to sexually perform]] meant that several prostitutes had to be called in, thereby giving the man a surprisingly airtight alibi.
* ''Series/JessicaJones2015''. The episode "AKA A Freak Accident" has Jeri Hogarth hire three prostitutes and get drunk and high on cocaine with them [[spoiler:while coming to terms with her ALS diagnosis and threatened ouster from the firm]].
* ''Series/ThePunisher2017''. After Pilgrim's brutal fight with his former colleagues in a neo-Nazi group, the previously pious hitman falls back into old habits, drinking and snorting cocaine to cope with the pain during his AfterActionPatchup. He then hears someone doing this trope in the next room of the seedy hotel he's staying that, goes next door and drives off the man at gunpoint so he can make use of his hookers and drugs.
* ''Series/TheGoodPlace'': Mindy St. Clare, the sole inhabitant of [[SoOkayItsAverage The Medium Place]], was an AmoralAttorney in life, who mostly spent her money on cocaine, strippers and sex. However, during one particular cocaine-binge, she had a personal epiphany and drew up plans for a huge charity fund, then died almost immediately afterwards by falling on a subway track. After Mindy's death, her sister used her money to make the fund a reality, leading to Mindy getting the afterlife "credit" for the good it caused. Since this setting only rewards good actions performed selflessly, this led to a kind of glitch in the afterlife system where neither the Good Place or the Bad Place had definitive claim on Mindy's soul. Since her situation was unique, both sides gave her an afterlife where she was neither rewarded, nor punished. (And while not addicted, she still has a craving for cocaine. Forever.)
* ''Series/TheBeautyQueenOfJerusalem'': Mercada notices Gabriel and Rosa's marital troubles, and hints he should visit Beirut on a business trip, giving him the name of a hotel his father used to visit there...that also happens to be a brothel/strip club/drug den. It works a little ''too'' well, and Gabriel starts spending far too much money on frequent trips to Beirut.

[[folder:Music]]
* "2 Hookers and an 8 ball" by Music/MindlessSelfIndulgence; the name should make it pretty clear.
* The music video for Music/TheProdigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" includes the main protagonist, from whose eyes we see the action of the video unfold, eventually pick up a stripper and 'party' with her in this fashion. [[spoiler:In a rare example of a gender inversion of this trope, the protagonist is eventually revealed to be a woman.]]
* The Song ''Wenches And Mead'' By Music/{{Alestorm}} celebrates this particular lifestyle choice:
-->''When I come back from a mighty quest\\
I have no need for sleep or rest\\
I head to a tavern for a drink\\
And get so drunk I cannot think\\
A wench by my side, a jug of mead\\
These are the things that I most need\\
So I sit back and sing this song\\
And drink and party all night long''
** "Treasure Chest Party Quest" features this choice lyric:
--->''Well you know we sold out a long time ago\\
Now we're here for the money, the hookers and the blow''
* In Music/{{Cage}}'s "Grand Ol' Party Crash", this is partly how we know that [[UsefulNotes/GeorgeWBush The Dubya]] (voiced by [[Music/DeadKennedys Jello Biafra]]) has fallen from grace.
* The music video for the Turisas cover of ''Rasputin'' has one of the singers in such a position, dressed in full pimp gear.
* GlamRap usually features this or implies that this is the source of the speaker's wealth.
* "Slow Down" by Brand Nubian is a WhatTheHellHero, directed at the speaker's ex-girlfriend. She became addicted to crack cocaine at some point in the relationship after experimenting with "gateway drugs." When her addiction got out of control, and she was stealing his money and selling his possessions (like his new sneakers) to get crack money, the speaker broke up with her. He is shocked at the number her addiction has done on her looks and personality...and the fact that she has been selling her body for crack money.
* "Bitches n Marijuana" by Chris Brown & Tyga featuring [=ScHoolboy=] Q is about... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin take a wild guess]].
* Mentioned in Music/{{Poison}}'s "Nothin' But A Good Time":
-->''They say I spend my money on women and wine,''\\
''[[WhatDidIDoLastNight But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night.]]''
* Music/TheBeeGees' "Wine & Women" has the line "Wine and women and song will only make me sad" at the very beginning.
* The music video for Music/{{Ghost}}'s cover of the Music/{{Genesis|Band}} song "Jesus He Knows Me" has the GreedyTelevangelist main character indulging in a whole lot of decadence of this fashion when he's not doing sermons.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
* In ''Literature/TheBible'':
** The first several verses of [[Literature/BookOfProverbs Proverbs chapter 31]] are King Lemuel's mother's warnings to her son not to spend his strength on women and not to give himself over to wine.
** Mentioned by God about Israel in [[Literature/BookOfHosea Hosea 4:10-11]]:
--->''They shall eat, but not be satisfied;\\
they shall play the whore, but not multiply,\\
because they have forsaken the LORD\\
to cherish whoredom, wine, and new wine,\\
which take away the understanding.'' (English Standard Version)
** Mentioned in God's judgment against the nations in [[Literature/BookOfJoel Joel 3:1-3]].
--->''At that time I, the Lord, will make Judah and Jerusalem prosperous again. Then in Judgment Valley, I will bring together the nations that scattered my people Israel everywhere in the world, and I will bring charges against those nations. They divided up my land and gambled to see who would get my people; they sold boys and girls to pay for prostitutes and wine.'' (Contemporary English Version)

[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
* The House Of Truth's first Wrestling/RingOfHonor incarnation was a PowerStable of hedonist party animals, whose leader, Truth Martini, was frequently seen smoking. The "hoopla hotties" he deployed were officially entertainers, and really little more than errand runners, distractions, and in the case of Seleziya Sparx, [[DarkActionGirl a deceptively powerful enforcer]], but as Sparx later revealed, the women CasanovaWannabe Matt Taven was frequently spotted with had been hired by her, suggesting hookers were among the benefits the HOT provided if one lacked [[KavorkaMan Martini's charm]].
* What Herb Abrams of the short-lived UWF spent his free time on. His last moments of life were spent naked (or only in his underwear) with two prostitutes and a mountain of cocaine. He even used this trope as a ''recruiting tool'' for a manager he ended up hiring.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'':
** The Green Sun Princes (who are often referred to as the [[SexDrugsAndRockAndRoll rock stars of Hell]]) are often said to be partially kept in line by their Yozi masters with the equivalent of demon hookers and blow (the other part being by their [[MoreThanMindControl Urge]] and [[RestrainingBolt Torment]]). It's been noted that this is pretty ineffective in the long run; even if a Prince ''is'' primarily motivated by Hookers and Blow, they'll eventually realize that they can easily acquire it for themselves.
** Also a common result of associating with the Guild.
** [[AdiposeRex Sesus Naghezzar]] is also widely known for this as the ultimate mark of his hedonism. Or rather, widely supplies such proclivities in the rest of the Scarlet Dynasty to secure his own powerbase (he still indulges, but not as severely as his image suggests he does; it's used to help people underestimate him).
** A certain iconic Solar character had this as in his backstory. [[TheAtoner In fact, his abandoning of that lifestyle was the reason he was exalted; into a priestly class at that.]]
** A certain Sidereal charm (a charm is a magic power) allows him or her to avoid official summons (and thus avoiding intrigues they're not interested to be entangled in)... as long as they spend most of their days drowning in an orgy. {{Squick}}.
* Daemon Prince Doomrider of Slaneesh, from ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' (specifically its earlier editions), was basically this trope taken to the absolute highest Grimdark levels, with an equal dose of DrivesLikeCrazy. Now with [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Doomrider more song!]]

[[folder:Video Games]]
* Shows up in the ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'' games. Trevor from ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA5]]'' appears to be the deconstruction of this concept. He's a successful bank robber who earned wealth by scoring big in the heist game but by throwing away his money on the aforementioned Hookers And Blow (he's definitely a meth addict and his personality suggests he probably pays for sex on top of it, though he's also all but stated to be a rapist), he's relegated himself to a rather pathetic existence by the time the events of the game roll around (stuck in the middle of a dusty nowhere town living in a disgusting trailer).
* ''VideoGame/SaintsRow2'': When Johnny Gatt and the Boss discuss turning an underground section of an abandoned building into a new HQ for the Saints, the Boss tells Johnny that they're convinced once he mentions installing stripper poles. Insuring that there are plenty of strippers around seems to be a major priority, as every Crib that you over the course of the game gets one or more stripper poles installed in it.
* When the Avatar is in the dream realm in ''VideoGame/UltimaVIIPartII: Serpent Isle'', he comes across Stefano, who is sitting on a throne surrounded by naked women (some of whom are playing tag). After discussing plot points with the Avatar, Stefano tells him/her to lighten up. If you have a ranged weapon you can kill his dream form and force him to wake up; he is not amused.

* In the ''WebAnimation/CampCamp'' episode "Into Town", Nikki speculates that David might secretly be interested in this.

'''Nikki:''' Hookers and blow!\\
'''Neil & Max:''' WHAT?!\\
'''Nikki:''' I don't know what it is, but my dad and his friends always said they wish they could do that for fun. And then they would laugh... maybe that's what David likes.

* In ''Webcomic/WizardSchool'', Graham complains that the magical academy [[http://www.meetmyminion.com/?p=1311 "blows. And not in a good way, like hookers or cocaine."]]
* One ''Webcomic/FullFrontalNerdity'' had the guys speculating that [[CrackIsCheaper blowing all your money on your gaming habit]] is ''probably'' better for your health than spending it on drugs and prostitutes. But they're not sure.

* WebVideo/BennettTheSage invokes this as a joke regarding ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'''s status as a CashCowFranchise for ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWingEndlessWaltz'' as a little girl asked why there's still war, Bennett, for a skit as her grandfather, said "Because Creator/{{Bandai|NamcoEntertainment}} needs that coke and whore money," before he corrects himself and adds, "I mean, milk and cookies money."

* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'':
** The episode "The Thin White Line" has Brian accidentally becoming addicted to cocaine. Next thing you know he's introducing the family to his "girlfriend" -- a bony, washed-up prostitute.
** In another episode, a commercial parody for ''Samuel Adams Boston Lager'' features three businessmen having lunch. One orders a Sam Adams, and the others remind him of his outstanding [=DUIs=], but he insists he needs something to wash away the taste of weed and hooker-spit. One of the other businessmen then changes his order to a Sam Adams as well.
** In "Peter And Lois' Wedding", which is about Peter telling the family about his and Lois' courtship in the mid-1990's, Peter and Quagmire creates a wildly successfull Internet business (Googoogle, a search enginge entirerly centered around the ''Music/GooGooDolls''), and celebrate by partying on a yacht with strippers and champagne while doing ecstacy. He's then given a network note reminding him he's supposed to tell the viewers about the dangers of drug use, but ends up giving an InUniverse DoNotDoThisCoolThing lecture about how awesome ecstacy is.
* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}}'', the band tricks Rock N' Roll Clown Dr. Rockzo (he does cocaine) into coming to an intervention by promising him [[http://video.adultswim.com/metalocalypse/rockzos-intervention.html "hookers and ice ka-ka-ka-ka-ka reeeeeam!"]]
* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'' this sums up Sterling Archer's hobbies in his spare time -- and sometimes on the job as a secret agent. It's constant enough that his {{beleaguered|Assistant}} butler Woodhouse claims he has repeatedly given Archer a TapOnTheHead and passed it off as Archer having an accident born of intoxication and prostitutes.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Brickleberry}}'':
** Smokey The Bear, a DepravedKidsShowHost (and Steve's childhood hero), who turns out to be an alcoholic drug-addict who sleeps with anything that moves, ends up getting Steve addicted to crack and sleeps with Ethel (who Steve is in love with) before dying of a heart attack.
** Woody, the Head Ranger of Brickleberry Park, indulges in this whenever possible, including using park funds for a Christmas party where [[ItsSnowingCocaine the fake indoor snow is cocaine]]. Ironically, it's actually LESS bad during the shows present day, when he's at least a FunctionalAddict. His drug use started during his days as a porn star (his full name is Woody Johnson, and he's [[GagPenis VERY well endowed]]), which eventually led to his career being ruined due to one of cocaine's [[TheLoinsSleepTonight unfortunate side effects]]. After some time as an AddledAddict, he joined the army, which... well, that caused [[ShellShockedVeteran other issues]], but he can at least invoke this trope and still go to work the next day.
* ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' have no less than ''three'' characters who embrace this trope.
** First off, Roger, the Smith family alien. Though he's mostly TheAlcoholic, he's an unabashed hedonist who does drugs whenever the opportunity arises, and occasionally indulges in weird sex (despite not having human genitals).
** Director Bullock, the local chief of the CIA, is a depraved drug addict who indulges in every vice imaginable to deal with the stress of his job. He favors chubby Asian callgirls.
** Finally, Principal Lewis, who's not only an open drug addict, he used to run cocaine for Noriega, and at one point, wishes that he was back in that job.
