Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted January 10, 2003 I've only smoked weed twice and had a few sips of alcohol on New Year's Eve once. Considering the death of a friend of mine was narcotic-influence, I'll stick to not doing much, if anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Incandenza Report post Posted January 10, 2003 Back in high school, a friend of mine--in an attempt to convince me to drop acid for the first time--told me a story of what happened the first time he took it. He had gone outside in the daylight, and became convinced that the sun was gonna fall on him. Eventually, he worked himself up in such a panic that he ran in circles screaming. Given how well I knew the guy, I believed him. Now, I ask this: HOW WAS THAT SUPPOSE TO CONVINCE ME TO DO ACID? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest godthedog Report post Posted January 11, 2003 acid stories are always fun. inc's almost beats the howard stern acid story from 'miss america' where he & his friends trip and see '2001', and one of the guys is named dave so he thinks the movie is talking to him.

Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted January 11, 2003 Never been drunk or high. The closest I've been to getting is sniffing Sharpies. However, with the way things are going, I'll probably smoke the whacki tobacci once or twice, but probably nothing more than that...my nextdoor neighbor got addicted to heroin and was in with the other drugs. He tried to commit suicide by sticking a four inch nail in his stomach...fortunately, he's turned it around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DeputyHawk Report post Posted January 11, 2003 wow, that's quite the horrible way to attempt suicide there. drugswise, the only constants in my life are booze & ciggies, which are daily vices. i used to smoke pot in college, but just don't really enjoy it anymore. i always just end up getting really tired and/or hungry and feel like all i've done is waste a night of my life. tried acid a few times, most good, enriching experiences but the one not so good, alone in a hotel room in indianapolis, feeling lonely and in a foreign country, just been ditched by a girl i was in love with. ended up staring at myself in the bathroom mirror for a long time, getting really freaked out, trying to go to sleep but being too afraid to turn the lights off because they were all cats heads which were hissing and spitting at me. i got dressed and wandered around downtown indianapolis for a while at about 3 in the morning around a deserted central square with a big statue and missy elliot music seeping quietly out of a speaker somewhere. i naturally assumed the buildings were singing r'n'b to torment me and started to freak out again in the middle of the street. eventually, a well-meaning guy from kinko's came out to try to calm down the crazy foreigner and we talked about antique cars for a while over a malted milkshake at steak 'n' shake. that was a strange night. in summary, it's probably a good idea to have friends nearby if you're going to try it, although really it completely depends on your mood going into the experience. i picked a real dumb time emotionally to trip. the few times i took it before then were all great, but i've never touched it again since then. besides, accurately or not someone told me that you can be classed as legally insane after taking acid seven times. it seemed reasonable enough so i'm happy to leave my life's intake nestling on six hits. no craziness for me, no sir. mushrooms i've done once (just giggled at a fire place for a while then started to panic read a book on the history of philosophy while stressing that i knew nothing about life) ecstasy i've done once at a house party. it made my friend bounce off the walls, dancing and singing like a madman (the flash gordon theme mainly, for reasons known best to himself). i just got a real big smile on my face and felt really contented and lethargic sat on the sofa. i hugged people a lot, but felt really really low all through the next day. cocaine i've also done once - well for one weekend at least, a weekend that comprised many many hits. as my previous dabblings probably show, i do not have what would be considered an addictive personality. i like to try new things, but can take or leave them after the experience. with coke it was different. my flatmate and i had just moved into a new place, got a big supply of coke and just couldn't stop. the buzz you get from a line, the self-confidence, the sheer feeling of fuck you all, i am the ruler of the worldness that coke gives you is indescibable. you know you are acting like an asshole, you can feel people regarding you as an asshole, but that just fuels the desire to be an asshole even more. you are jealous of me, my power, my good looks, that kind of thing. it makes you incredibly confident with women because you fundamentally start to regard everyone (other than those doing the coke with you) as beneath you, as somehow incredibly honoured to even be in your company. coke also makes you incredibly horny and coked-up sex with someone you don't remotely give a shit about is a bafflingly intoxicating experience. as friday turned into saturday we just kept going. the hits would have to get closer and closer together to maintain the buzz. the buzz was something we could not let slip. we were in control and had to keep it. eventually somewhere close to sunday morning i passed out and have refused to take coke again, because it's such a great feeling i don't know if i could ever stop taking it if i started again. and that scares the shit out of me, because i'm a real together person and i don't know why i had that needy reaction towards something i only ever tried the once. if anyone does coke at a party i'm at now, i just leave. sorry, that turned into a bit of a rant there. don't do coke kids, coke is bad. jesus fucking christ, i feel like a line now ...

Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted January 11, 2003 besides, accurately or not someone told me that you can be classed as legally insane after taking acid seven times. I've heard that you're permanently brain damaged after 50 acid trips. 50 should be enough of a safety zone to experiment if you want. Of course, I've done more than that, but I don't feel like too much of an idiot. I also suddenly have the urge to go snort some coke... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Old Me Report post Posted January 11, 2003 I smoke Parliament Menthol Lights, drink, smoke pot everyday (love it so much I took a pilgrimage to Amsterdam) and consider myself somewhat of a connosieur in pain killers. I do them all responsibly and usually never all together. I have also done acid and shrooms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Matt Young Report post Posted January 11, 2003 and am interested by acid, though I don't really know anything about it, and am not beating myself up over not having tried it. Acid's something I'd definitely recommend everyone trying at least once. Don't get all retarded with it, like sitting around watching Pink Floyd's The Wall or anything to try to gauge the experience. The true test of whether you enjoy acid or not is to sit in a completely silent room, dimly lit, with nothing at all to play around with. If you still have fun, grab a ten strip and go to town. If not, eh. Dabble a bit but don't worry about it. This probably isn't appropriate here, but what the hell... All this talk about acid has excited me. I've been looking for some for 2 years, but there's none around here. Do you have any idea where I could acquire any? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually look nothing like Larry, I just share his sense of humor. Check the "what do you look like thread." But they would sound damn funny coming out of Larry's mouth.

Guest Black Tiger Report post Posted January 14, 2003 Cigarettes: For about 3 months in 2000-2001, I got sick of wasting money on them and was getting sore throats,. Marijuana: My best friend turned into a pot head and I went with him. I haven't had any marijuna since May of 2001. The two of us got real fucked up because it was laced with something (we think it was herion) Alcohol: On Christmas of 2002 I had 3 beers at my Uncle's house and got a big buzz. I've only gotten drunk three times, and out of those three times I've only passed out once, never threw up and never been hung over the next day. When my best friend broke up with his girlfriend she told her parents we were all big addicts, I was supposedly an Opium dealer and he was hooked on coke, this was all bullshit.
