These two guys that went to my high school (I didn't know them personally) stole a tank from a dentist's office that they broke into, and one of them died. One of them put the mask on and passed out and then the other one (I know, REALLY stupid ) put it on and also passed out with the mask still on and the gas running.

At least that was the story that was circulating. Who knows how it went exactly.

That's crazy. The stuff does literally knock you out after all. My friends at least filled balloons, so it was just a little safer--not a neverending dose.

NDRU said:

Be Careful with those tanks! You can do too much. My friend (back in her heavy raver days) woke up and couldn't breathe one morning (she had partied hard over the weekend where she had done a lot of nitrous). The had found the white mucous in her lungs etc (not sure of the exact ailment). It was from Partying with N2O!

Isn't it basically Whippits?

I keep reading this thread title as "Shine on You Crazy Diamond".

No, but I saw piss flooding down the walls of the apartment. Is that enough close?



Well yes, but I probably was close to that anyway.



Once two policemen stopped an olderly man who was walking in front of me to ask him information on the area we were at. It was my luck they didn't stop me, and that indeed this gentleman just accidentally happened to be present. I was stoned off my head.



I remember things high I wouldn't otherwise remember. Things from my past that have been repressed. They make me understand myself better, why I became what I became.



I've decided to hold back some musical releases of my own and things I've done with others, yes. That stuff was indeed ethically dubious by nature.



I don't have any at the moment. And to be honest, I am not too keen to do any narcotic substance these days either. Maybe in the future, but now I can hardly even stand coffee.

Whippets was probably the most intense high I ever had, granted it only lasted maybe 1 minute or 2 but MY GOD, it felt like falling down the rabbit hole.

NDRU said:

i was at a party when i was 16 and dedicded it was a good idea to smoke pot with my then boyfriend. It must have been laced with something because after I smoked it, my vision got cloudier and cloudier until I could not see anything. I screamed and my boyfriend led me outside, where I got my vision back after a few minutes. Scary!

pretty appropriate

You were probably about to pass out. I almost "went blind" after breaking a finger. I was getting really light headed & seeing dark spots that were taking more & more of my field of vision.

I could see that happening if you go too stoned.

I did see God in the sense that all the grasses and plants were singing so that I knew EVERYTHING was conscious and aware and JOYFUL.

I do remember rambling out loud to myself on a San Francisco street.

And something about seeing butterflies in the lights and eating toast.

the best was when me and my friends ate pot brownies at my parents house and were doing somersaults in space under the guise of watching TV with the lights out so when my parents came home and said, "How's it going?" they didn't even notice

too many stories to mention, fun times
no desire to go back though

I went to see Marilyn Manson back in 1993. On Acid. My friends found me after the show dribbling in a corner.

The very LAST time I ever took LSD...

Hey, it seemed a cool idea at the time

I remember the dentist using laughing gas when I was about 12 and had to have baby teeth removed.

They had a tv where I could see it and The Flintstones were HIlarious!!!!

i've never done recreational drugs either, not on purpose anyway.

one time i went with two friends to a fast food place late at night (around 11pm). we were sitting there and i saw a couple kids i went to highschool with, one of whom worked there, come in and sit down at a table in the corner (not far from us) and pull out this weird looking pipe. they started smoking right there in Amigo's!!


we didn't even know it was called a "bong"! we started laughing at the stupidest things, and we all were thinking the same thing. "this isn't funny, why are we laughing??" i looked over at the other table, and i said to my friends "hey guys, i think we're high." and they said "hey hillary, i think you're right!"

i took them home, and i was scared shitless driving!! i went in my house and my parents could smell it on my jacket so i had to explain to them what happened. they were just glad i made it home safe.

if a little contact high gets me like that, i'd hate to see what i'm like on real drugs!

Visually, that must have been pretty intense.

NDRU said:

I know, it's weird.

Those days are long gone from me, but I will say I vivdly remember the first time I got 'high'. I was maybe 11 or 12 and a friend and I decided to bleach out a jean jacket of hers. We didn't know what the heck we were doing, but filled a laundry tub with bleach, dumped the jacket in and kept stirring it around, watching the color come out. We were in a basement with no windows open. By the time we put it in the washing machine to wash and rinse it out after, we were both giggling uncontrolably cause we found the washing machine hysterical.
I didn't know it then, but looking back, yup, that was us under the influence.

Same friend and I would get her mom to buy us a case of diet Mountain Dew when I would sleep over at her house and we'd go through 6-10 cans each in a matter of hours to 'get ourselves hyper' and stay up all night. I didn't know it then either, but looking back, I'd call that recreational drug use.

thanks 4 the tip, i'll bear that in mind.

My (then bf) and I ate a bunch of shrooms and planned on going out to the bars. However, when we walked in, I got really nervous and couldn't deal with the people, so we left and sat in my car, and stared at the street light for a good two hours. We thought we were watching a drive-in movie or something, and it was just the street light changing repeatedly, it entertained the hell out of us though.

The night when from trippy fun to scaring the shit out of me though. I had him drive us home while I closed my eyes and zonked out in the front passenger seat. About 10 min later, I heard him scream "oh my god" and heard my tires screeching. When I opened my eyes, there was a guy laying in the road in front of us. I immediately thought he hit someone and we were fucked, and started freaking out. Turned out, this guy just laid himself down on the road face down resting on his forearm, and was trying to commit suicide. It was an exit ramp with a sharp bend, and he laid in a spot where someone could have easily hit him and not noticed him in time.

He was alive but refused to get up, and the traffic started backing up behind us. Several people behind us called the cops. When they got there my bf spoke with them a bit and they let us go.

wanna hear some awful news? they are turning limelight into a mini-mall.

cborgman said:

no shit? we'll be there in March i gotta see this shit

i get really damn funny when i am on drugs.

my favorite:

we went to a rave and smoked the fuck out of myself on the way, and then took acid on top of it. in the car, we were listening to the trainspotting soundtrack, and i started crying. one of my friends asked me what was wrong, and through my tears, i started telling them how beautiful this song is, and how it is about a guy who married his highschol sweetheart, and how madly in love he was with her, and then she very quickly devloped a brain tumor and died, leaving him alone and incapable of dealing with life... meanwhile the song is all THUMP-A-THUMP-A-THUMP.

when we got to the rave, they opened the doors, and the smoke and fog came pouring out on me, and i was convinced that in that smoke i had gone back in time and this was andy warhol's factory in the late 60s. i decided i was going to find andy at the party, and he was going to make me his next superstar. i started walking up to people and asking if they had seen andy. i would also ask if they were a reporter. when they would say no, i would inform them "i'm sorry, i'm only speaking to reporters and andy tonight."

i also remember dancing like i had never danced before. i was totally into it, and all my friends were watching me and grinning. and then, after 30 minutes of it, they tried to make me sit down, but i refused, so they dragged me to a chair and forced me to sit, but i kept dancing in the chair, partly because i couldnt stop and partly to show them i will stop dancing when i want to stop dancing.

i dont remember leaving the rave, but i do remember reconnecting to reality and looking up and seeing my friend brian dancing nekkid in front of me around a motorcycle helmet he had put on the floor of his living room. he stopped, looked at me and said "oh, i'm sorry." i thought he was apologizing for being naked, so i said "it's okay, brian."

"no, it isn't. i don't have a sombrero. i'm sorry."

i just got up, said "no... no." and walked to his bedroom and passed out on his bed.

good times...

IAintTheOne said:

i dont know when it starts the change, but the paper carries it. i am pissed i never got to see it.

Chris, I'm laughing my ass off. You're adorable.

I'd really love to try acid.

I took mushrooms with a couple of friends. We drove down to the beach, but as we were getting there my friend really started feeling it.

We were at a four way stop, and he sat there and asked "what do I do?"

I said "park! immediately"




I once took a tiny bit of mushrooms, and I was driving home (I know, I know!) when I saw contrails & explosion from a rocket test somewhere nearby. I thought it was an alien/nuclear invasion.

I got home and said to my dad with enormous pupils "did you see it?" as if everyone in the world would know about it, even though this kind of thing was a semi-regular occurance.

"It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life!!"

Dad: "hmmmm"

"I'm only talking to reporters and andy"
