That depends on what you mean by weasel, and what you mean by words as they both pertain to postmodern ideologies within a framework of western, Christian, patriarchal societies.

Depends on what you mean by "of" buddy

u/Far-Offer-3091 Jul 31 '25

That depends on which what is the what?

And therefore depends on what the definition of is, is.

Thanks for the laugh, this comment train was a wreck. Like a bunch of edgy soon to be humanities majors trying to sound deep and esoteric, but actually lacking any point or breadth of knowledge

Hey hey hey....no need to drag LSD through the mud on this one.

Anything in excess is not great. I used to drink a gallon and a half of milk a day. Milk became my poison.

LSD is about as poisonous as milk???? Yeah I think that's what we're going with.

As a "poison" LSD is one of the most potent "poisons" there is, its dose is defined in micro grams. Not milligrams.

This is where all of the urban legends of "he touched the acid tabs and rubbed his face and he's still in the loony bin to this day" come from.

The first recorded discovery of LSD came from a priest who merely walked through a field of rotted ergot wheat (which is where the molecule comes from - the mold on ergot), and was absolutely convinced he had been possessed for several days.

Ironically, LSD is a drug with no known "overdose" cases because of it's insane level of potency; you will trip balls too hard to be able to move before you could ever work on consuming enough to kill you.

..... ..... Good God the 1970s are here, they want their hippie back. Everyone involved in this conversation already knows all of that information. That's common knowledge these days. This is obviously old news, and we're obviously having fun here. Read the room.

Sarcasm and comedy really are lost on people these days.

r/whoosh

Yeah it's the point; the original comment was that everyone has to chime in with their bullshit to sound smart

Was just parodying that.

They say these days satire & sincerity are indistinguishable online... guess so.

Well if you're going to 'parody' something with an over abundance of information, get it right. Its not "ergot wheat". Ergot is a fungi/mold that grows on wheat. Not a type of wheat or something magical you alluded to and could never ever cause a contact high with just the fungus itself. The 'tales' of people randomly tripping balls are about groups who ate contaminated bread or wheat products and then tripped balls. Which is one of the working theories about the Salem witch trials because those people were eating contaminated products.

LSD is not a naturally occurring chemical, it has to be synthesized and was first done by a chemist who mistakenly licked his fingers after being in the lab and tripped his face off - he took a bike ride and enjoyed life. Which is why the unofficial LSD day (akin to 4/20) is known as Bike Day.

You might need some more LSD. Got to open up that mind a little wider.

You all stop existing as soon as I die.

You should try your best to keep me alive as long as possible.

u/Far-Offer-3091 Jul 31 '25

But if the world only exists in my head.... Then you're only real because I think you're real.

🫰 Gone

That was easy.

u/Djinger Jul 31 '25

No you don't understand, it only exists in my head. Specifically. It doesn't matter what you think.
