Advert on a bus

[Skreecheeboy]

Hi everybody, I just saw a bus with a banner across the side of it saying "SHROOMS: Prepare to get wasted" I actually laughed out loud, but surely it should be just as illegal to say things like that as it is to advertise ciggarettes and stuff like that. I was dumbfounded.

Shrooms is the name of a new film coming out.

[squarebear]

Actually, that 's a good point as you could make a film called "Benson & Hedges" with the tagline "It's a cool smoke" to get round the current legislation.

[Skreecheeboy]

I can see that being a blockbuster!

[beryllium]

Why, what are shrooms??
Is it short for mushrooms?

[squarebear]

Yep. Shrooms are mushrooms used as drugs.

Doesn't sound llike the sort of film you should watch before a shroom brew though. Have I ever tld you about my astral projection hallucination Skreech?

[Skreecheeboy]

Possibly GS, I remember a thread a while back about out of body experiences which ended up being put in the orange box on the front page after I'd happily been talking about a time when my mate and I had a freaky moment when our brains swapped bodies. I was watching myself enduring a wave of paranoia whilst watching fear and loathing in las vegas from his perspective and he felt the same thing from on the edge of my mate's bed. Quite startling when it happened but it's never happened since. What happened with yours?

[Goodsoulette]

Went out for the night, took some unnatural LSD, decided it wasn't working so took more and a bit more and then a couple of hours later I was hallucinating my face off. We went back to my friends flat and were sat around having a smoke, then all of a sudden I could see everyone in the room as I watched, out of body from the top corner of the room. At the time I was convinced I'd had an out of body experience. When I told my mate about she said, well you never know, american indians have these sort of experiences, but I had to add it was normally after licking a toxic frog of some kind. I have to say it was my my most spiritual trip of my youth and I think it may be the way forward for moder religion.

Dont think I could handle brain swapping.

[Skreecheeboy]

Yeah, the brain swap was in similar circumstances. What I thought was a tab ended up unfolding in my mouth and I realised I'd had three at once (on top of another couple) we were all smoking and hovering up lines of some kind of white amphetemine based powder and there were loads of folk there I'd not known very well (I say loads when actually there were only about 3 or 4) but it was such a small space and we were all completely out of our faces with my mate's parent's downstairs that it was enough for me to loose all sense of reality. I wasn't in the happiest of places at the time either with no job and not a lot of prospects. I don't think it's fair to put it in the same bracket as a religious experience as I've had a few of them and they just dont compare but I can say that however bad it's gotten, I've coudln't say I've ever come away from a bad trip worse off, I've always learned something from it. I think it often feels like you've come back from a nice holiday and had plenty of time to reflect, when really you've just been exploring your inner world for a few hours.

i was in that state at a right weird party in a big mansion type place in maidstone and i found myself in a room full of characters who were showing a japanese bloke of about 65 how the new fangeled karaoke machine worked . he was singing "japanese boy" by aneka or whoever. he was singing " mr can you tell me where my love has gone- hes a nine year old boy" he obviously didnt realize poor old soul .
i had such a bust of the giggles i coughed mars bar out me nose and had chocolate snots and tears.

just when i really needed to keep a low profile
