Ever eaten (or drank, in my case) too many mushrooms (tea) . . .

[AVID]

and seen evil figures behind the faces on your TV?

Happened a while back, but it still creeps me out to think about it.

Maybe its just me.

1. With mushrooms, there's a fine line between hysteria and delirium

[Taverner]

2. No most of my mushroom experiences have been good

Saw Spike and Mike while shrooming many years back....WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!!!!

3. saw 2,001 on acid

it was a 90 hour movie

[Ellen Forradalom]

13. A buddy tells a story about that...

When the 'light-show' began someone in the audience said loudly, "Shit, man! I peaked a half-hour ago!" The whole audience erupted into laughter.

15. read

howard stern's miss america, he tells a great story about seeing 2,001 fucked up

26. Did it make any sense on acid?

Because it didn't make any sober :(

Then there's the movie version of "Tommy". What the HELL were they tripping on to make THAT??

[sundog]

4. I've had mostly positive mushroom experiences...

usually like an intense peace, especially if I am with good people.

I had a horrifying trip once when I ate 3 tabs of acid & watched Fantasia: "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" -- please kids, don't try this at home...

[Mara Steele]

5. I just became really anxious

and felt like I had a thousand thoughts in my head at first...

Once I calmed down, it was pretty neat, but I don't think i'd ever do it again...

[AVID]

9. I never had to do any more

We drank about a gallon, tripped for three days, I never really felt the same afterward

The extended release oral suspension formulation - 20 year half-life.

29. Wow...

That's pretty crazy! Hope you're alright :hi:

6. Big medicine is for seekers

not joyriders.

[Nevernose]

7. You haven't taken too many mushrooms until the faces won't leave

Shut up, you bastards! Quit thinking about me!

[AVID]

10. thats the thing

"Quit thinking about me!" you hev been there

[Khephra]

18. My philosophy

You haven't taken enough shrooms until you've been through a ritual mumification by Egyptian gods...but that's just me.

(I used to have a roomie that would just throw ounces of shrooms at me to take.)

[Nlighten1]

8. Shrooms

Are nature's finest trip.

[Rowdyboy]

11. Well, it was 30 years ago, but I saw helicopters surrounding the dorm...

I went and hid in a bathroom stall in another part of the dorm because I thought they were after me. I have no idea how long I stayed there, but when I came out, they were gone.

Years later I learned that there really had been helicopters in the neighborhood that night-there had been a major drug bust.

[Ellen Forradalom]

12. I see those evil figures every time I see Bush on TV

and this while consuming nothing stronger than mineral water.

[Ellen Forradalom]

14. One gentle, happy evening on 'shrooms

Went to an outdoor film screening, then tried to catch a bus home, but couldn't, because the thought of the bus gave us all an uncontrollable fit of the giggles.

[peekaloo]

16. lots of giggling and an inability to stop grinning

been over a decade since I've done them. Saw The Breeders/Shonen Knife/Nirvana (last U.S. tour)......fought off the urge to belch for fear of ralphing and traumatized myself by looking at my reflection in the bathroom mirror.

[achtung_circus]

17. In high school, must have been 30 years ago

Shrooms all day, I came home and lay down on the bed and closed my eyes. I seemed to be made out of clear plastic, My arms were at my sides and a green fluid was pouring uphill through my fingertips (where they touched the bed) up through my arms and then spilling into my body at the shoulders. I watched this process of my body filling with this green fluid for a while, then realized that my point of view was from somewhere up near the ceiling. Waaayyy cool.

[tigereye]

20. from my limited experience

the trick is to avoid pretty much anything man-made and stay in the woods or near water. :) Anything man-made seemed pretty scary as I recall, esp cars and TV. ( tells you something, no?)

[StClone]

19. What makes a kid saw his head off!?

Happened in my town.

Nearly a year ago a nice kid was given some mushrooms and ended up wandering into a neighbor's wood shop where he ran his neck through a band saw. Horrible experience for the city and all involved from the EMTs, the neighborhood and beyond.

[Berserker]

21. Sorry I don't believe the bandsaw story

Is that like when we did acid we were supposed to want to fly out windows and turn into oranges and have flashbacks?...Bullshit...I have done piles of shrooms (Batwings) and never once had a bad experience except for the problem with my jaw in the morning was so sore from laughing at everything all night. And I have been waiting for years for a flashback!

[StClone]

22. Wish it were

I also have a friend wiped out by a pot smoker driving.

[jukes]

23. played w/

2c-c several times. found myself, on the last occasion, staring into my barthroom mirror for hours, loathing my reflexion in the glass. my face was a deep red & black mask, & i felt i cd see all the horrid depravity buried in my soul.

2c-c is rather mild and pleasant for most folks.

hallucinagens, other than pot, aren't for me. never again.

.4 millies of special K, right now. care for a taste?

[slutticus]

24. I wanna try that shit...

...before I die.

You only live once you know.....

[AVID]

25. see post #6

kids - don't try this at home

[AntiCoup2K4]

27. Second (and last) time I took acid....

I saw a cop's face melt into that of a literal pig.

[jdonaldball]

28. I always have mushrooms on my pizza and never have problems

...maybe you need to add pizza to your mushrooms?
