Now that I think about it, digital drug abuse might explain Patrick82. 


No way. That's gotta be much, much harder stuff.

Unless they're already high, and then the music can hardly be at fault.

Audiophile approved shrooms? Pst I might have something for you. *wink wink nudge nudge*
 
But why would you tape ping pong...never mind that seems rather feasible if you're really high. And I was thinking if you did that religiously, not just once. I'm not sure there are many things that can completely mess you up if you do something only once.

I saw that earlier today. It is ridiculous. One article said schools are warning parents about the dangers of it. 1) This is complete bull. I've tried it out of curiosity and it really is just a headache. 2) So what if people do it? I mean does some kids laughing over some sounds really hurt anyone at all? It definitely isn't hurting them.

I guess what's more interesting is how serious people (a.k.a. politicians) are taking this.

 
WHAT???!!!! Are you suggesting that our fine political leaders would seize on nonsense as a way of getting publicity or whipping up their constituents? I am shocked, SHOCKED at this allegation. No politician has EVER exploited nonsense to get ahead. NEVER.

Tried it too. I downloaded some "binaural beats" tracks and spent several hours listening. Did I get high? Ummm....no. Did I get painfully bored? Yep.
 
All this proves is that people are gullible, ignorant, and willing to believe anything. Oh, and by the way. If you eat pop rocks and then drink a carbonated beverage, your stomach will explode. Really. I read it on the Intertubes. And it actually happened to my brother's son's wife's cousin's mother's best friend. Really.

Pleasure, in any form, must be stamped out. The normal state of life is misery and they will do their best to ensure universal suffering. Anything that smacks of fun is inherently evil.

Cheesing actually works though.

I think I tried something similar once. It was on cracked.com. I hooked up a radio to some headphones and turned it to in between stations so it was white noise. Then I got a ping pong ball, cut it in half and taped each half over each eye and shone a red cellophane covered light on my face. I then lay there for around half an hour.
 
I didn't get messed up. I didn't even hallucinate unless you count weird triangle shapes in the redness as hallucinations.

Yeah, I did that with some friends last year. Nothing happened to me, except it turned out that I was down there for more than an hour, and I never heard my friends go upstairs. Some of them had very interested hallucinations, but it only seems that I just didn't hear anything...

WOW! I hope you're kidding. But I loved your jenkem plug. LOL
