    Absinthe

    I've just been given some of this and i've heard how evil it can be! Is it true it makes you trip?

    the absinthe you buy today, in this country doesnt make you trip. it used to, hence one of the reasons van gogh chopped his ear off, he was off his tits on the stuff.

    At the last Arcane i went to i took an water bottle full of absinthe.

    one minute i was in the middle of the dancefloor and looked at my watch and it was about 2am and the next thing i know i am laying in the middle of the sitting room floor in my mates house (who i didnt really know) surrounded by complete strangers and it was 645am, I have absolutely no idea what i did for those 5 hours but was apparently being well offside towards people i usually like :lol:


    the best way to do absinthe is to neck little 1/2 shots of it every 5 minutes or so over a long period....that way you dont get instantly fucked but you get a more trippy effect off it if you do enough.

    there was a time where i was walking home after drinking loads of it and made the decision that i was going to live my life on absinthe and have a shot every morning as soon as i woke up :lol: proper moment of clarity :lol:



    best drink EVER

    shot glass, teaspoon of sugar in, stir, light it, immediately PUT IT OUT - neck it. breathe heavily for 3 minutes and repeat after 10 minutes recovery time.

    do not do this trick for more than 1 hour
