I once triggered a psychotic break smoking weed despite smoking for like ages. It is definitely a psychedelic. Not a very powerful one, but still.

SpaceGoatFarts posted:It's nothing alike eating and smoking weed. It's almost impossible to smoke "too much" since the effect is almost immediate. But when you eat some it's a whole other story. Many people (even experienced smokers) can get panic attacks (which feel like dying) and even sometimes hallucinations. This is true. A friend gave me a brownie last year and I ate about a third of it figuring that would be enough. Well I went way past high to way too loving high to not being able to hear sounds properly or see well, to having a minor seizure and waking up while being dragged out of a bar. If I had no idea what was happening to me I would have definitely called 911. The worst thing that had ever happened with smoking was once I ate a whole pizza.

heliotroph posted:The worst thing that had ever happened with smoking was once I ate a whole pizza. I've learned my lesson with edibles as well. I thought I had the hang of them the last time I ate weed chocolates but then after I had just taken the last one the poo poo decided to kick in and crank it up to eleven. I then spent 30 minutes cycling home which normally takes me ten minutes and sat in the shower until I stopped getting even more hosed up before heading to bed. You can't overdose on weed but you can become physically ill from being way too loving high. Going bad on weed is weak knees, puking, a dizziness that'll stick with you even lying down, paranoid thoughts. It's no fun.

David Thorne is a masterful real-life troll. You may recall him as the guy who tried to pay an overdue account with a drawing of a seven-legged spider. Here he trolls a workmate, receiving ten formal complaints in six months and still not getting fired. It may sound cruel, but in his defense the workmate is a Nickelback fan. http://www.27bslash6.com/f26a.html Here's an excerpt of some of the best complaints...

I would love to have a colleague like Thorne and be proud to be deserving so much loving attention from him. edit: David Thorne posted:My very first run in with Simon was when he blamed me for stealing pens from his desk, which I vehemently denied. He then proceeded to point out the tiny engraved words 'Simon's Pen' he had done on all eight of the pens currently on my desk. It was so small he had to point them out to me with the aid of a loupe. Each two-millimetre high letter was meticulous. When I asked how he had managed to get the letters so perfect, he told me that he had a headset at home with a light and magnifying glass on it. When I asked why he had a headset with light and magnifying glass on it he replied, "For painting collector figurines." SpaceGoatFarts has a new favorite as of 15:58 on Feb 12, 2014 |

Orkin Mang posted:There had better be at least three paragraphs per post. It's not just a question of "ketchup vs no ketchup", because there are a huge number of variables that need to be accounted for. Firstly, what kind of hot dog is it? Is it your bog-standard hot dog from the store, fair hot dog, cart hot dog, chili cheese coney? For example if you're picking up a chicago style dog, ketchup would be a grievous sin just because that hot dog traditionally comes with mustard (among other toppings that do not need discussion here). However if I'm just getting a hot dog from a random food cart downtown, or my microwave, or even from the cooler pack I keep in my desk at work, sometimes a little ketchup can be nice. But really some dogs don't even need ketchup at all! For example, Target hot dogs truly shine without any sort of toppings whatsoever. You've not tasted heaven until you've wolfed down 2 or 3 of those suckers at 10AM on a sunday. But more than just ketchup vs. no ketchup is the dilemma of "catsup" vs "ketchup". Personally I'm a ketchup man myself. I find that catsups tend to more watery and more spicy than your regular ketchups. Some people might say that there really is no difference between the two, but I can tell through considerable time and personal effort that there is indeed a difference. Statistically, there was an overall decrease in the kinematic viscosity of catsups that I tested (at the temperature of my house [70F], avg viscosity is ~250 cSt) whereas the ketchups were slightly more viscous on average (avg viscosity is ~285 cSt). Additionally, in a double blind taste test, researchers (me) discovered that nearly 8/10 catsups tested had a very spicy, almost shrimp-dipping sauce-like finish, while only 2/10 ketchups had the same property. So clearly asking "ketchup vs no ketchup" is a silly question to begin with; "catsup vs ketchup vs none" is more appropriate. In the end, it matters more on an individual taste level than a global "is one way truly better" level. Personally I think a person should sample several hot dogs with several different ketchups (or catsups if you prefer) and find the combination that works best for them. I enjoy the venerable Heinz 57 for most standard applications; I try to eat natural, but find that Annie's ketchup lacks the robustness that I want in my condiment. Finally, when you are searching for a ketchup, please be on the lookout for high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). This ingredient has been linked to many health problems, and when you're eating 5 to 10 hot dogs per day like I am you definitely don't want to be adding something that might be decreasing the overall quality of your life!

Say Nothing posted:David Thorne is a masterful real-life troll. Quite sure that this is fake. The complaint forms don't seem to conform to any legal standard, so they'd have to be issued by the company. And any company that is big enough to formalize its complaint procedures would never let anything like this slide. Even if this David Thorne was their best employee, their legal / compliance department would be all over HR's asses.

I work at a jewelry repair store across from a big box jewelry store. My favorite thing is when a customers comes in to get their ring fixed, act all offended at our prices, and say they'll go next door. The big box stores don't do repairs. I always watch and grin when I see the salesperson smile and helpfully point them back to our place. Tasty_Crayon has a new favorite as of 16:28 on Feb 12, 2014 |

A moment of schadenfreude that still makes me smile whenever I think of it was when a work mate's younger brother made a single pot brownie using around 15 grams of weed(around half an ounce). He figured you can never get too high, so he ate the whole thing, plopped down on the couch in front of the tv and chit chatted while waiting for the moment when he would start tripping mad balls. He went quiet after a while and 15-30 minutes later he suddenly shouts "YEAH I'M GOING TO BED NOW", and he did, then he slept for ~30 hours.

They were all excited and made their edibles and chowed down, eating a pan they put like two ounces into together. There were about four of them. They had all the usual freshmen in college activities planned. Watch The Wall followed by Grandma's Boy, listen to Bob Marley, etc. I left them to it, came back about an hour later, and all four were passed out on the floor around the brownie pan exactly where they'd been sitting when I last saw them. We threw some blankets over them, shut the door, and didn't hear from them until the next day.

Dear cat. Stop being so loving mentally ill. You've ruined another day for me worrying about you and checking on you, because you decided after months of having the drat thing and using it fine that you did not like your litterbox (which we cleaned out multiple times trying to get you to use it) and refusing to poo poo in it, making yourself so impacted with poo poo I could feel it through your belly. Thanks for wasting my morning that I should have spent working, but instead spent phoning around for a cheaper vet because the last one we used is known for being pricey, and cost us $3000 thanks to your other mental illness of eating inedible objects. Thanks for the nice trick of making GBS threads in a temporary cardboard box we put out for you, but not until 5 minutes before going to the vet meaning we couldn't cancel the appointment. Did you know that most mentally retarded cats who don't like their litterbox just poo poo in their owners bed or something. I would have preferred this to the looming threat of more expensive surgery because you wrecked your body again over some dumb OCD. Cats are not supposed to have OCD and eating disorders, they are supposed to be regal and elegant and some bullshit like that. Dear husband: If we get severe rain and cockroaches go in the car to escape the rain, kill the loving cockroaches instead of telling me several days later that the car is cockroach infested so no, I should not go in it and therefore cannot accompany my mentally ill cat to the vets. Also, if your computer keeps making GBS threads on you by constantly crashing, and I tell you what to do to potentially fix it, don't go online and try to do all other suggested solutions because you don't want to do my solution as it was *hard* then continually get depressed and miserable and huff and puff all around the house about your computer. Don't deeply sigh every time the computer crashes. Take the drat power supply out of my computer and test it in yours like I told you to do. Except now you can't do that because your harddrive has now died like the one before it did because the power supply is a piece of poo poo like I told you it was. Now we have to buy a new harddrive and a new power supply. Edit: wrong bloody thread, enjoy that schadenfreude I guess. Sing like a girl has a new favorite as of 23:39 on Feb 12, 2014 |
