Weirdly, the new Tom Perrotta book of short stories which I just read opens with a story about a copy who keeps pulling this pizza delivery guy over in order to give him backrubs, etc

Out of interest has there ever been a real case of people giving drugs disguised as sweets to schoolkids?
― cardamon, Wednesday, 18 September 2013 01:45 (ten years ago) link
why would people give drugs away drugs are valuable

Circa 98-2000 weren't there some strawberry flavoured strips laced with acid that you licked to get high? That was teenagers iirc and may only have happened on grange hill

I mind when I was wee bairn I lived in Berlin...early 80s maybe. And even there you got 'don't accept stickers from strangers' warnings? Were they auf deutsch? Who knows. Maybe just a pic of a magic roundabout sticker with VERBOTTEN stamped across it. It's an old and widespread urban myth anyway. Like razorblades is sweets - does anyone know how much a mach 3 refill costs theses days? It's not cheap

Acid's not addictive, in fact prolonged use over a short period = diminishing returns. it's also crazy cheap. what kind of criminal mastermind wd dish it out to kids for nothing? this is straight urban myth bullshit and i defy you to find one documented case.

disregarding the fact that that's clearly not written by a real md, why does it say "please repost" at the end? do they expect parents to take it down and photocopy it or something?

They did look very neat and undigested.
Not saying it's a hoax, but I'LL be reserving MY UP ARROWS for something else.
we fuck up birds and don't give a shit.
― scott seward, Thursday, 19 September 2013 01:08 (ten years ago) link
looking at that island though i kinda think maybe we fuck up birds for a reason. if we didn't they would be all over the fucking place!
whenever i think about what the end of the world would be like and if all the people were gone i can't help but think about how LOUD it would be. there would be SO many birds. power lines cut down on a lot of chatter.

if you freeze-frame, you get the most awesome images.

its modern art. and the freeze-frames also really remind me of basquiat. the whole thing kinda gives me flashbacks a bit to the 80's. like listening to coil on drugs and seeing basquiat paintings.
