Strange how certain LSD myths stick in your mind. I once heard or saw some anti-drug propaganda that showed a woman who thought she was cutting some food with a knife and it turned out she had cut her fingers off.

Almost every time I'm tripping and start cutting myself some fruit or bread I always double check just to make sure I'm not cutting my fingers off :)
 
Orange juice guy. I was reminded recently when reading Be Not Content: A Subterranean Journal by William Craddock published in 1967. I wonder if that's the earliest documentation of Orange Juice Guy in print. It predates the sources on snopes.com. Was orange juice guy originally a real guy?? I will always wonder.
 
I cant think of any tbh.
Which is a shame, in a sense, because it taught a whole generation - or more - that drug scares are all false Reaganite propaganda or "reefer madness" style bullshit. Or, y'know - both?

Which in (whatever year we're in now) - in the current rc/online market/obscene aount of new nsp's emerging constantly is scary.
Ive had people try and lecture and patronise me re: my suggesting they test/weigh/crudely varify how geuine or pure their drugs are.
Idiots.
The products of propaganda, shitty drug eucation and general apathy, i suppose.

Having said that LSD being apparently safe (and divine) is cool with me.

Is, I hate to break it to you, but that is no myth...that woman was my mother and she had a dinner party that evening and was fixing "finger" sandwiches.
Oh, BTW, they were very tasty...shame there were only eight.
 
My first acid trip toward the end I smoked some weed which wasn't a great idea, made me freak out a little and get paranoid and I noticed that the acid was coming in ever decreasing waves, I started to think 'shit, it does stay in your body forever, the waves get smaller and smaller but just never go!' I realised it was BS again after an hour or two though. Then later that night I took some MDMA, and as I was coming down somehow the LSD feeling started to come back and I was like shit it is here forever. I started thinking when people say LSD changes you forever this is what they mean. Nothing some sleep couldn't fix though
