Shrooms

My friends - my pals - my comrads of ILP.
I to you my writings bid -
A long time it has been indeed -
Since shrooms I once did.

But here we are again -
In the land that Alice once did stand.
I believe the name was - what was it?
Oh yes - Wonderland.

For the caterpillar* has expounded to me -
The properties, nature, and effects -
Of that most curious of specimens -
Shrooms, mush, pizza toppin’s and other such specs.

Eat me, drink me -
Lick me, fuck me -
Whatever -
I’ll take it all.

  • someone should do a serious lexicographical (entomological?) research project on the word ‘caterpillar’ - it is the most peculiar word for an insect I have ever come across - but then again, a catterpillar is a most peculiar insect.

I remember the good ol days of hallucinogens. Not exactly in great detail, and sometimes my stories run together, but it was lots of fun. Never been much a fan of shrooms, and for some reason I have a bizarre suspicion of things like 2ci and 2cb and those weird things. But the acid man! The acid from my teenage through my mid twenties was a high point in my psychological life.

You have no idea how much time me and my friends used to waste trying to find these SOBs.

you can get spores online and grow your own in a jar in your closet Tab…

My ex-boyfriend’s brother grows penis envy in his bedroom. I saw my ex get fucked up on them one night and it was a complete turn off. He flipped out thinking he was being surrounded by fire ants and I kept insisting that there was nothing there which then escalated into a ridiculous fight. I’d probably sooner do acid, that kid was brain dead.

Hmm. Possession laws over here are a wee bit less… forgiving than in the west. I’d sooner keep my rectal virginity intact thankyou. :laughing:

Anyway, I’m high on life. Greentea, exercise and pro-biotic yoghurt.

Yeah, you’re right, who am I kidding.

Or, if it’s legal in your area (and it is in most places), you can buy 4-aco-dmt. This stuff gets motabolized into psilocin in your body, which is the active chemical in mushrooms.

Just like pot there are different shrooms. I prefer the mild shrooms that do not cause major head trips. I have not tripped since our son was a baby. Its too hard to trip and care for a kid. I just never got back into it even though our kid is an adult. The interest has waned. I prefer a few beers and a cozy bed to curl up into in an evening now, rather than party all night long. :smiley:

Real LSD is hard to come by.

But if shrooms aren’t your thing (and that would be a pity since SWIM does think that shrooms are pretty fucking spiffy. One could always put LSA from Morning Glory seeds into alcohol. A very easy process and everyone has access to some high powered alcohol.

Well, outside of the poorer areas in Saudi Arabia. But what is a poor Saudi Arabian doing on ILP?

Yeah, I knew it. You’re all freakin junkies.

Dude that was high school in the mid 90s.

I’m a totally productive citizen now.

Taxes and all that shit.

For real.

Hey, you and me both, brother. I get serious flashbacks every time I think about my Tax Return.

Aaah, the good ole days, the glory days of immortal youth. Funfilled drugs and youthful energy should be given to those past having to be responsible for family and taxes :laughing:

Meh. Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be.

Unless you are stoned on something :sunglasses:

Has anyone here ever seen any dragonfly around? I must say I am fascinated by the idea of an amphetamine derivative with the dosage of LSD. I’d be curious to hear how it compares to standards like mescaline, 2-CX, shrooms, and LSD. The extended aromatic nature of the benzodifurans fascinates me.

For me, it isn’t so much about partying (though it can be) but exploring alternate states of mind just to get familiar with them.

I find the only way I can get high from morning glory seeds is by eating them straight - and then I can only eat so much without getting sick. I tried the distillation process whereby you crush them, soak them in some solvent like naptha for a few days, then in some highly potent alcohol like Everclear, but that didn’t work for me. Maybe it’s a delecate procedure and you have to know what you’re doing. Even if this worked, I’m not sure it would help avoid the nausea.
