Shrooms...

Indeed. I haven't been there in awhile though, so I don't know exactly what they got up. I'm sure Google can help ya out.

Zero: that's just a testament to the Japanese obsession with this stuff.

The last time i took them was interesting.

I took a little bit, and it wasn't doing anything so i decided i wasn't gonna trip of the amount i took, so i went to sleep. I woke up about an hour later and I was tripping moderately. It was only the second time i had taken them so i was freaking out a little bit because i went 0-60 in less than a second. You can't really think normally when you are tripping like you can if you want to when you are drunk or stoned, and that really bothered me at the time.

I wouldn't do them right now because i've got way too much shit on my mind and i'd probably think myself miserable. I'll stick with booze and weed for now.

That reminds me of why I shy away from drugs that induce hallucinations. That looks nightmarish...

I won't touch 'em cause I have a horrible feeling I'd have a bad trip. I know a few people that have done them and say they're a lot of fun, but they will only do it with certain people (really close friends). It's a trust issue I guess.

I did shrooms one time, in 1996 or so. 1/16 (half an 1/8th to the mathmatically declined).

It was interesting, and not that bad.

It was just something that I'd wanted to try, so I got some off my drug dealer. We went up in the hills, ate them and I felt nothing. They tasted like popcorn without butter. Time passed...nothing.

So, then we decided to get stoned and all, and that didn't do much. Finally, as we were walking back to the car, I noticed that everything seemed to look more colorful. The bushes were greener than I had ever thought possible.

Drove to a friends house, played some Tekken and Ridge Racer, and both looked pretty cool. Went to the bathroom, looked in the mirror, saw only black in my eyes, knew I was fucked.

Drove back to my house, it was night then, and now the cars on the road don't have lights, they have cones of light sticking out the front of them. I thought I could actually walk up and touch the cones of light, but I wasn't going to get out of the truck and do it.

Saw mission impossible, started to really trip hard, freaked out a bit when Tom Cruise rips his face off.

On the whole, not bad.

Never really wanted to do it again, not that it was horrible, just never was my thing.

Acid sucks, I know that much.

I took an eighth of mushrooms back in high school, I guess I had an alergic reaction or something.

I went blind, and tripped for three days. It sucked ass.

For my money LSD was always a better deal anyway. Didn't taste so shitty, and if you smoke some trees as you're coming off the acid you don't get the neck pains, and the shitty feelings.

Acid is the devil.

I think it took about 5-7 days for me to re-convince myself that I wasn't dead and that those 5-7 days weren't some imagined thing that I created during a death spasim.

That, and I couldn't not listen to NIN for about a year without freaking out.
