Not Drugs!

hahahahahaha, fags!

absinthe has a different drunk than most alcohol. whatever it is - the wormwood perhaps - gives it an almost narcotic feel. just had some again last night and i definitely feel it this morning...sort of like taking vicodin. it's not an unpleasant effect.

It contains very high doses of placebo.

this reminds me of when you get your kid brother to smoke some oregano and then listen to him assure you of how stoned he is.

this reminds me of when you get sold some bunk dope and try to convince yourself its real but you can't convince yourself and now you're out a few bills and the withdrawals are setting in

right?

my friend was in a frat and they bought a keg of non alcoholic beer every year and made the new pledges finish it. they all acted totally wasted dude until they were told there was no alcohol in the keg

^^Lulz! That's great!

hah, maybe there's no alcohol in my absinthe...that would explain it.

agreed that absinthe drunk is slighly different than regular drunk, much like a wine drunk is slighly different than a beer drunk. wormwood/thujone? dunno if it's the reason; don't care. I can't stand licorice so I never drink absinthe anyway. chartreuse, on the other hand, gives me a similar drunk and goes down smoother for me.

'absinthe is just booze'

'no, because blahblahblah'

'ok well here is scientific proof'

'ok well that may be but see i disagree because

'but booze a is exactly the same as booze b'

'no wai!'

'and a ham sandwich is exactly the same as filet mignon and this one time my a friend's frat had people eat popcorn but told them it was bowling balls and everyone was like 'oh, man. i'm so stuffed, brah.' lol'

i disagree with this theory. TECTONIC PILATES

I don't care what anyone says, boozes differ in buzz.
Jaeger is not a beer buzz.
Gin is not a vodka buzz.
Tequila is not a single malt buzz.
Nearly every society has that one booze that makes people fucking weird.
What does the court of general opinion say about this absinthe shit? Anyone tried it?
I need an excuse for a bender.

I've had a great deal of fake absinthe and a some real absinthe. The sensation of drinking it is really pretty fantastic-it literally feels like its heating inside your mouth (as supposed to burning afterwards) and the drunk that followed it was great. Agreed, that different liquors have different effects, but I think going outside the standard western tradition you find some liquor with weirder feelings to them. Pisco gave me wild dreams, and I always have thought tequila (good, aged preferably) cultivated a special brand of crazy. Same for absinthe.
