Man Castrates Himself Because His Balls Contain Monsters

Is it acid that stores in your fat cells?

I remember being told about one drug that accumulates in fat stores and when that fat is metabolized can cause flashbacks long long after someone goes clean.

LSD is one, yes, but I doubt it's the only one. I know when I'd get high sometimes years after my first and only trip, I'd get a shimmering swath across the bottom right corner/right side of my visual field, tracers a foot long, shit like trees or clouds would start folding up, or spreading slightly in my peripheral vision.

Didn't always do it, never knew why, but thinking about it now, it was only when we had been outside walking/skateboarding/biking around for a while, so the combo of good pot + fat burning musta been the trigger.

Acid goes into your spinal fluid iirc

Clearly to pull this off, his balls were monstrous.

Either way, it seems wise to avoid buying acid around Humboldt County for the foreseeable future.

Is it just me, or does this sound like something you'd hear on like a weather report or some crap?

"It's gonna be rainy today so make sure you bring your umbrella, and avoid buying acid around Humboldt County for a while because there's a bad batch going around that will cause you to tear your balls off. Back to you Chuck!"

LSD is not stored in the body at all. Like most other drugs, a normal dose is out of your system within a day. "Flashbacks" are purely psychological. Trust me, if it was the drug sticking around in your body I'd have had at least one flashback, considering the fact that I've taken hundreds of doses of acid throughout my life.

Bullshit.

times a million

this shit is always - without fail - written/produced/thought up by people who have never tried acid. this shit is right up there with the kids who supposedly went blind from staring at the sun while tripping on acid - surprise, snopes.com says that never happened, and this probably didn't either. if it did, acid was not the root cause. no sane person is going to cut off their own balls no matter how hard they're tripping. there are so many things that are wrong with that.

and no, LSD is not stored in your body. not to any degree that would ever produce after-effects. people are getting acid confused with marijuana, which does get stored in fat cells - in fact, you can test positive for marijuana months after smoking if you suddenly lose weight before the test.

acid flashbacks and HPPD, however, are real. they're poorly understood but the general consensus is that they have something to do with changes that happen in the brain. they've done tests and the visual neurons of people who heavily used acid respond differently to visual stimuli than those of non-trippers, mainly taking longer to "snap" back into shape.

I'd almost put money on it being a few retards on Datura or LSA.

LSA? what are you smoking? LSA is a lot like acid but makes you sleepy and maybe crampy (and nauseous if you're eating seeds). and there are a lot less visuals, it's more of a mindfuck than a visual trip.

now datura, absolutely. you could definitely cut your own balls off on datura. it's probably been used less than 1% as often as acid, but I'd bet $100 right now it has contributed to more deaths and injuries.

datura will fuck you over if not straight-up kill you.

sorry I don't mean to come off rude, I'm just... uh... sort of a LSA expert. to put it one way.

[Cyn]

Oops. I was a bit drunk when I wrote that, meant to say Datura or Salvia.

Edit: And I was referring to OP in general, people wandering around unaware of their surroundings and shit like that as well as the guy cutting his nuts off.

[Yuri-G]

haha fair enough. at least you know what's what. could have guessed that from the chick in your sig though, I love that girl.

[Murdock]

this gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "Trippin balls"

[Max™]

Out of your system in a day huh, well, it only tended to happen when I was stoned afterwards, and the effect was most intense outside on overcast days.

I'm pretty sure I didn't pop a placebo and spend the next 10 hours watching the preview channel crawl across the ceiling while fingerpainting with it, I assume it was acid, cause otherwise I'm gonna go watch channel 3 some more, that shit was awesome.

[Cyn]

I'm sure it was acid. The thing about psychoactive drugs though is that they affect people differently do to our brains not being the same. Out of the literally dozens of times I've tripped from LSD specifically, I've never come close to having a bad trip, never had a flashback, and in general tend to experience less visual hallucinations than others.

I'm not saying that flashbacks do not exist, merely that it's not due to the acid remaining in your body but something triggered in your brain.

But anyways, for some good light reading on LSD, this website is pretty good: http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd.shtml

[Yuri-G]

cyn is exactly right. as I said before, flashbacks are very real, but are a brain thing, not a "LSD is still in your body" thing.

but what about my cat's uncle's friend's friend's brother that ran from the cops and the sweat soaked through the acid in his pocket and thinks he's an orange/glass of orange juice?

no sane person is going to cut off their own balls no matter how hard they're tripping. there are so many things that are wrong with that

This, however, not so much. There certainly is evidence for "bad" acid making people do really, really crazy shit.


"don't eat the brown paper" etc.

[Cyn]

It's not like there are different strains of LSD-25. It's either "good" acid or it's not acid at all. And for that matter, there's not much out that's particularly dangerous that has the potency of LSD... that is, that can fuck you up with a 100 microgram dose that will fit on a 1/4" square piece of paper.

Blotter acid is overall pretty fucking safe. Liquid not as much, but still moreso than most other drugs.

[Yuri-G]

there is no such thing as bad acid. bad acid falls into several categories, none of which are "bad acid":

- real acid, but way too strong
- not actually acid but some other drug
- appropriate dose of acid, but mixed with something else that causes the bad trip

acid itself, as cyn said, is what it is. it's not like milk, it can't go bad. you can't change the chemical composition of acid, because then you don't have acid anymore. it's not like pot where there are a myriad of chemicals it can be composed of in a dizzying array of different ratios.

although reading plow's post again, you did put "bad" in quotes, so I don't even know why I'm explaining this, you probably already know what's up.
