Acid teaches you how the mind works. Alcohol just slows your mind down to the same speed as your tired body, so they're in synch. The test judgments were biased in favor of acid, but I'm glad they were.
Most mind altering substances just enhance your own true self...truth serum..If you're paranoid, you'll get more paranoid, if you're gifted you'll make great art, if you're borderline psychotic, you might just quit trying
Last night I'd been sweating all day pulling weeds, so I escaped everyone and broke out my secret basement stash of Steel Reserve High Gravity 8.1%. It tastes like dark beer was meant to taste. Don't settle for substitutes or those chintzy little 32-ounce bottles. Get an ice-cold Steel Reserve High Gravity 8.1% wide-neck 40-ounce bottle right now.
If you are anything like me, there are many components to your personality and you go through the gamut over the course of a "trip". One moment creative, then paronoid, then introspective, then loving and so on. It's been over 15 years since I've done any, and I have no plans to try any hallucinogens, but some of the best, most inspirational, and meaningful moments of my life came from shrooms and LSD. I'm very glad I had those experiences, but I'm not looking to repeat them.
I too may pack up any future trips. I feel like Danny Glover when I say "I'm getting too old for this shit!"
Yeah, yeah, the police are reading, get them off your trail, yada yada doo. Hey pigs... I MAY do it again!! Whaddyou think of THAT?
I learned a lot about myself and others by experimenting with hallucinogens...then I graduated and used the info..I think a lot of us did.
I think there is something wrong with Mag's comparison skits. Back in the day when I tipped the whiskey jug a time or two, it made me about 10 feet tall. They must have used the wrong stuff in his tests.
