Drug Testing in the Work Place

[rjs246]

Not to go off topic here, but speaking of drugs, has anyone heard about this stuff called salvia?  I just found out about it a few weeks ago.  It's a legal herb that you can buy in smoke shops, and apparently it really makes you hallucinate and lose your shtein for a few minutes.

There's hardly any drug I haven't tried several times, but if you look up salvia on youtube, these kids are getting absolutely wrecked.  I have no desire to try it.  I guess maybe I'm just old now.

I just wikipedia'ed it and it looks sort of awesome. I'm in.

Wikipedia is your friend: Salvia divinorum

Psychedelic experiences are necessarily somewhat subjective and variations in reported effects are to be expected. Aside from individual reported experiences there has been a limited amount of published work summarising the effects. D.M. Turner's book "Salvinorin—The Psychedelic Essence of Salvia Divinorum" quotes Daniel Siebert's summarisation, mentioning that the effects may include:

   * Uncontrollable laughter.
   * Past memories, such as revisiting places from childhood memory.
   * Sensations of motion, or being pulled or twisted by forces.
   * Visions of membranes, films and various two-dimensional surfaces.
   * Merging with or becoming objects (for example a Ferris wheel).
   * Overlapping realities, such as the perception of being in several locations at once.

Salvia is not 'fun' in the way that alcohol or cannabis can be. If you try to party with salvia you probably will not have a good experience. Salvia is a consciousness-changing herb that can be used in a vision quest, or in a healing ritual. In the right setting, salvia makes it possible to see visions. It is an herb with a long tradition of sacred use. It is useful for deep meditation. It is best taken in a quiet, nearly dark room; either alone, or with one or two good friends present.

Its crap. I tried some about 3-4 years ago and it did nothing.

How about this for some shtein. The new kick is poppy seeds. Take a nice handful, brew it up as a tea and supposedly you get a crazy high with hallucinations. Why somebody didnt pull this while I was in college is beyond me. Apparently now, supermarkets are running bear of the seed from their shelves.

Heard it on Howard this morning as well

[ice grillin you]

I think it might have been here where someone posted the story about how kids are taking a shtein in a bottle and setting it outside in the sun and basically fermenting it for a couple days and then unscrewing the lid, taking a big whiff and getting high for like 12 seconds.  Kind of like whipits only dirtier.

'Dirtier than whipits' is scraping the absolute bottom of the barrel.

[Sgt PSN]

You should try smoking a bullet.

this wasn't store bought poppy seeds. 

my best friend at the time spent 75% of his time looking for new ways to get farged up.  these were wild poppy seeds, from a plant. the same plant that opium comes from.
