Well that makes things considerably more creepy.

[hawkeye]

Well then.

This may or may not sway my stance on legalizing pot.

WTF?

I mean, I know pot gives you the munchies, but I thought it was more for doritos, and less for face.

Don't smoke up, kids.

[MixedBerryJam]

I just saw an article online (so no substantiation) that some guy ate his family dog after an experience with some kind of synthetic marijuana, which I didn't even know was a thing. I wonder if that's what face-guy was on?

Here's the story.

[gault]

What the fucking fuck?

Really?

Huh. *barricades self in house*

[lyssbobiss, Command, B613]

I take back what I previously said about longing for the good old days of pot. Fuck it all. You can't care for your kids AND you eat faces.
Did they ever identify the pills in the stomach?

Maybe it was a mental problem, and not the drug?

But his mom said he was a nice kid! He gave her a nice mother's day card!

Nope, they said it was not the synthetic stuff.

[shadow]

I knew it! See...this is why I won't smoke w/ my kids around...I love them so much I could eat them, but I don't actually want to eat them.

This just seems so inconsistent with what we've been hearing about this story since the beginning. I'm genuinely confused by this. And I still want an answer about the pills in the guy's stomach. Or is cnn now reporting there were no pills (inconsistent with every other news story I had seen previously about this)?

Government conspiracy?

Never forget that we have the US government to thank for LSD and they tested it on people without their knowledge.

Total cover-up. Now they can surreptitiously slip bath salts into the water and we won't know what's happening.
Listen, motherfuckers, if this turns into a Dawn of the Dead thing, I'm calling the orange julius at the food court as my hideout.

[ttt]

Stop making generalization and stereotypes about pot smokers!!!

I once heard a conspiracy theory about the government adding fluoride to the water to control our minds or something like that.

I had a professor in college who had a fluoride conspiracy theory that was something like this. He made us write a paper on it (in a technical writing class).

Random, but I think I remember AW lived in fear of fluoridated water.

Interesting. AW and I are from roughly the same part of Ohio.

I find it hard to believe that smoking pot was the cause of this behavior. Mental illness seems more likely that some super great guy who happened to smoke pot that day.

[onomatopoeia]

Doesn't pot stay in your system for weeks? So he could have smoked a week prior, and it had nothing to do the fact that he ate a guy's face. I thought I read somewhere he was on some prescription medication too. I know my dad had a crazy reaction to some meds he was on (can't remember what for), that caused him to hallucinate and have horrific nightmares. Of course he didn't eat us, but I'd be curious what sort of prescribed meds this guy had in his system. A side effect like that, coupled with significant mental illness, could be pretty disastrous.

They still have those?

Haha, I have no idea. I avoid the mall here like the plague. Okay, if Orange Julius is out, I'm taking Cinnabuns. I'm Azrael Abyss!

OMG I just saw this. WTF!

[mysterons]

I'm like a bear at a campground after I've smoked pot, but I've never wanted to eat a human face.
