Drugs

You might want to be a little more specific on what you are looking for.

You will probably get more responses that way.

Read Trainspotting. A lot of the happenings in there are pretty funny and they all seem very realistic. Note: the movie isn't quite as funny as the book and dropped some of the characters and plot points.

Only problem is it's a hard read. The whole thing is in a Scottish dialect and pretty well written phonetically.

Jesus Christ. What the hell are you researching? How people do their research? Do you even know what research is?

Get a restaurant job, or make friends with someone who has a restaurant job. Statistics say that about 17% of all food service employees use illegal drugs on a regular basis. In my opinion, what's keeping this number down is the high volume of Latinos (immigrants and natives) who staff kitchens and bus tables as such. I've known a few that would do coke or meth, but this was mostly to stay sharp and alert on the job. Your recreational drug users will mostly be in the front of the house waiting or bussing tables, and they'll mostly be caucasian. From my casual dining experience maybe 25%-33% of your front of the house employees use. It's mostly pot, which is pretty mainstream nowadays, if totally illegal.

But anyway, the best way to hear good stories is to:

1. Have a wide circle of friends

and

2. Listen more than you talk.

A friend of mine told me this story:
He was with a bunch of friends and one of them had taken acid and all of a sudden the guy was sitting on the other side of the room and when my friend was going to talk to him the guy started screaming and saying in a pleading voice "I'm an orange, please don't peal me!!!"

That's an old urban legend.

That actually happened to a guy here in toronto, but from what I remember he was on the subway and was on meth.

Read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S Thompson.

Anything you do on mushrooms [I]with other people[/I] is funny.

Use a psychedelic, then write your book, meaball. You won't regret it.
Think for yourself. Don't live vicariously through others' stories, though I guess that's the point of literary research.

Go to AA or NA or CMA speaker meetings. I actually sort of miss those. The CMA meetings at the gay club house are especially good.

My friend in Japan went to mushroom hunting with some other guys (yep, they grow wild in the mountains there). One of them ate the stuff in the car on the way home. He puked a bit but seemed to have a decent high. But then he fell asleep and pooped in his pants in his sleep. They drove as fast as they could to his house and left him at the door step.
I don't know what happened to him later.

Yes. Yes, do that.

they grow wild anywhere a cow shits

A cow don't shit in the mountains.
Well, there's no law to criminalize the use of mushrooms in Japan. I've seen a street vendor selling mushrooms.

Me and my friend use to always take Oxycontin and watch the girls from our highschool play softball.

It would come in slow and I'd begin to lay down. Before I knew it I was numb. Pain was a foreign language to me.

One time my Drama teacher, the coach of the softball team, called me over whilst I was laying down completely roasted off Oxy. I got up real slow, the way an old person does, and walked over to him. He'd asked me, "Are you on any drugs?' To which i turned pale and scoffed and said, "No, sir, I dont get near that stuff."

He looked at me puzzled and said, "What are you talkin' about? I'm asking you about Doug?"

Okay, the original question was, "Do you know anyone named Doug?"

Side effect of Oxycontin does NOT include auditory hallucinations so this just might be my sanity slippin... But a drug story none the less.

That was used in the Thomas Harris' Hannibal.

shrooms. haha!

true, they grow on cow shit.

we once took those right after school and we hung out at this movie theater lounge.

-- my friends were staring at the carpet and one jumped and rolled on the floor because she claimed that the carpet was moving and it pulled her.

It's in or under cow shit that they grow. Not because of the shit itself but because it just supplies the perfect environment - darkness, heat, and cool down.

I used to grow them a long time ago.

hey, me too. at one point i was even growing them for the hell of it, not ust for the shrooms. it was a really interesting process for me. it is one of the few things i am really good at growing.
did you get spores from syringes or didi you make your own prints?

Yeah - I got all into it too. My friends would always ask about it because they wanted to eat them but I was more into the whole growing process after a while. It is really cool.

I used to just get spores in syringes. Then I had this solution I would grow them in - it looked like urine. After that got like foam balls floating around in it, I would shake it and pour it over the stuff it would grow on. It's way more detailed - obviously you know - but I'm not going to teach people how to grow it here. lol. There's High Times for that and there are plenty of books and websites. If anybody wants book recommendations - I can do that.

Well stuff that was funny at the time isn't quite so humorous now. But drugs are the reason I can not drink Dr. Pepper to this day.

I was using one of my empty Dr. Pepper cans as an ashtray one day when I was high (see where this is going....?) Went to take a drink, picked up the wrong can, got a mouthful of Dr. Pepper soaked cigarette butts and ashes.

And now my mind still equates Dr. Pepper with drinking ashtrays.

But since they weren't "light" cigarettes, I can handle Diet Dr. Pepper.

Looking for the more humorous aspects of drugs.[/QUOTE]do some real research, you won't find anything funny, or maybe you will, but for me when people tell drug stories like they're interesting or humorous, they aren't they're just pathetic.

Once after me and my buddy smoked a couple bowls we just were chillin in his living room. On his coffee table was like a bowl of hershey kisses. He started eating them and after about the tenth one he realized he hadn't unwrapped any of them and was eating them whole with the foil wrapper. I thought it was a funny story, but maybe its one of those things where you just have to be there.

Recently Ive dropped acid and taken shrooms. The acid was pretty awesome. Wicked cool visuals- little swirly rainbows, the floor was rippling, the walls were breathing and dripping and cracking... there are pictures from the experience up on my myspace page. Very cool stuff. Much more fun than the shrooms. They were two nights ago and I think I went crazy. I dont know how much I had but my boyfriend turned into a floating head. I dont remember much other than we discoverd the secret of life and promptly forgot it. And then remembered it again... and forgot it. It was like deja vu for hours. Very frustrating. Also, I couldnt have sex on shrooms. But on acid I went for hours. We had conversations about the illegality of fun... I forgot who I was... then who he was. Im  never doing it again. Probably. Id also smoked weed though, so I dont know, it may have altered the effect a little. Maybe.

I will answer any question about any drug(s) and the hillariousness/hell/high/ they may achieve (I used to work at a rehab and am a recovering/relapsing junky). 

I also have some funny prison stories; good times.

And fuck Nancy Reagan (I should have listened).

well one thing i can tell you is how each person reacts differently to drugs

me and my best friend have always tried stuff together and do whatever together

well the first time me and him did shrooms he immediatly had a bad trip and started to think he was pissing and shitting himself

the whole night wich had to suck for him while with me i just felt realllllllllllly stoned and saw tracers normal shroom stuff

How would you describe a trip with shrooms? And is there anything I should be aware of if I'm trying them for my first time?

(Not my own story, a friend told me this happened to her camp counselor:)

So a group of friends (can't remember the number of friends) go camping, and they take acid.  They are all tripping, and all of a sudden one hallucinates a dwarf.  He's like "Wow, this is pretty freakin' cool," and starts playing with the dwarf.  He passes the dwarf around to his friends and they all play with the dwarf.  But then their trip goes bad and they get all paranoid so they lock the dwarf in a closet.  The next day their high has worn off, and one of the people are like "Do you guys remember playing with a dwarf?" and everyone was like, "Yeah!  Woah!  I remember the dwarf too!"  They go inside the house and they hear something in the closet and they're like "Oh shit...what the fuck did we lock in the closet?  It can't be a dwarf!"

Well they open the closet and out comes a (now I forget the age, let's say) a 7 year old girl!

This girl was apparently missing for 2 weeks and was living off berries or some shit...
this group of friends goes to the police and hands her in, saying that they were just camping and found this girl.
The town that this girl came from celebrates this group of friends and GIVES THEM THE FUCKING TOWN (city?) KEYS.

When my friend told me this story I was seriously laughing for five minutes straight...I'm a horrible story-teller so I probably butchered most of it, but because this is apparently a true story (I haven't done any research or anything, so I could be wrong) so take what you will from it...

that story is not true. some one told me a story just like that but with a leprachaun.

shrooms and acid make you hallucinate but not like that. it mostly just distorts what youre actually seeing. patterns look like they move. things that are round look like they move. sometimes the ground looks like a wave in a lake.

its really hard to explain hallucinogens if youve never done them. theyre really fun though. just make sure youre with a few of your good friends, turn off your phones, be in a place where no one will bother you all day, and just have a day of it. you can try to plan things to do while youre tripping but i guarentee you wont end up doing any of them. at least ive never ended up doing anything i planned to do while tripping. also, everything you or someone youre with says will probably be the funniest thing youve ever heard. trust me. tripping is probably the funniest thing in the world.

just do it yourself. thats the best kind of research. and if you dont personally have any experience with these drugs then dont write about them because itll sound stupid. start with shrooms. they dont last as long as acid.

dont be afraid of having a bad trip. if you think youre going to have a bad trip then youll have a bad trip. just be in a place youre comfortable with and be with people youre comfortable with. its also key to know that nothing bad can happen to you. these drugs cannot kill you or hurt you in any way. also, yu learn a lot from having a bad trip. ive only had one bad trip and it was the third time i ever tripped, first time on acid. it taught me a lot about myself and the nature of these drugs. bad trips are not always bad.

also dont listen to people that say its really bad for your brain. those people dont know what theyre talking about and have never researched anything about the brain. hallucinogens arent even as bad as caffeine or cigarettes. thats true.

oh, a key thing to keep in mind: if you have any family history of mental illness of any kind be very careful with lsd. also, i wouldnt do shrooms or lsd if i had any mental illnessess/disorders. this includes depression, anxiety, etc. just be careful and know youre all right and everything will be all right.

First off I have to say - The Cult can not promote what is said here.  We will not tell anybody to take drugs.  In fact that is the whole purpose of this section.  It's so people can research things without having to experience them.

I've done drugs.  I've read about drug experiences.  Any of my friends or cousins or whatever could write a decent description from what I have said.  And they haven't done the drugs that I have.  You don't have to do drugs to write about them.  If you write about aliens visiting Earth, does that means it will sound stupid if you haven't actually seen aliens?  Everybody has a different experience with each drug.  Drugs are a very personal thing.

Research - and write.  Tweak.  If it sounds stupid revise.  Don't endanger yourself just to get a story out.  That is just stupid.
