I find that pot helps occasionally.

[hamfactorial]

Kaze has begun his Phoenix-like transformation from man to red mage.

[Khaospawn]

If you strike him down, he will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

[Khaospawn]

When she left him, he was but a learner. But now he is the master.

[Khaospawn]

In times like these, Kaze, I try to remember the best quote from Conan.

Dude: Conan! What is best in life!?

Conan: To crush your enemies! See them driven before you! And to hear the lamentations of their women!

[Kazekirimaru]

I find that pot helps occasionally.

I've had too many bad experiences with drugs to indulge anymore.

Last Thanksgiving, I believe, was the last time. I was no stranger to drugs and had regularly indulged since Freshman year of high school. I had a rather high tolerance and it generally took a lot to feel anything. Well, that day, my then-girlfriend's friend brought synthetic over and I'd never tried it before. We had a gravity bong made out of a big cup and a 1-liter smart water bottle which usually took a couple hits to get me off. So, I lit up and took three full hits off it - three liquid liters of smoke(whatever that converts into idfk) and three minutes later I didn't feel anything and pronounced it was shit and promptly went inside to use
the bathroom.

Then, I fell out of the universe, lost my identity, floated in eternity for at least 10,000 years, and forgot how to talk. After the initial wave of wtf passed I spent the rest of the day staring at the clock making sure time was still moving.

Haven't compromised my mental state since. I still freak out when I see things in repetition for too long, like road lines or songs that repeat.

There's your Kaze story for the day.

That was an actual cool story bro.

Sounds like salvia.

[DroppinSuga]

What's a good place to get pricing for MTGO cards? I'm trying to figure out how much AiR is going to cost me.

[hamfactorial]

MTGOtraders.com is a good choice, I also like MarlonMTGO.

[Khaospawn]

Z, Magma Jet would be awesome. Would seem reasonable too if Scry really is coming back.

[zemanjaski]

Agree. It's hardly pushing the power envelope, but it does a lot of nice things for red decks, especially if we get to go back to being midrangey.

[Khaospawn]

If we're not going to get a decent 3 damage instant, I'll gladly take Magma Jet.

[photodyer]

Jeez, James...how many ragequits a day do you get with that?! That is table-flip on a stick.

In all seriousness..."wicked" is the word that comes to mind. That deck would frustrate me into misplaying out of desperation...well done.

[Khaospawn]

Dat U/B list....very similar to what my brother plays. It's not unbeatable, but it's very good. I have a lot of experience against it.

Funny that my brother and I have complete opposite playstyles. Makes for very good test sessions.

Also, this is what my phone autocorrects it as: U/Bugatti. Awesome.

[Kazekirimaru]

Woke up in a new U/Bugatti decklist.

[Khaospawn]

Buss it wide open!

[Kazekirimaru]

Sounds like salvia.

I can't say I've touched the Sage before.

[redthirst]

Sounds like salvia.

I can't say I've touched the Sage before.

Last time I smoked Salvia I had to tie myself to the porch rail with my belt to keep from floating away...

[Khaospawn]

I jealous. They outlawed it in Florida by the time I was aware of it.

[Kazekirimaru]

I'm a little too pussy to kill my Ego on purpose.

[TubeHunter]

I'm about as sober as there comes. Never smoked,I don't even drink, contrary to what most other people my age are assumed to do.

[DroppinSuga]

I enjoy alcohol, but I don't drink that much since my son was born. I quit doing any kind of drug about 9 years ago.

[Kazekirimaru]

You haven't lived till you've been to McDonalds four times in one night while high on at least two different substances six hours before an exam.

[photodyer]

Okay, showing my age here...smoking Salvia?! As in the kitchen herb or the damned garden flower? Man...some dude gets bored and goes out to mom's herb garden and starts rolling up for kicks? Given my profession, I find that utterly scary as hell.

[LP, of the Fires]

I'll smoke a bowl or two once a week and that's about it. I stick to cigarettes and beer.

I do play poker at a coke bar occasionally though.

Different species.

[DroppinSuga]

Strokin' Differently.

[Nuwen]

Salvia Divinorum. North American natives have been finding god(s) with that shit for millennia.

The first time I tried it was pretty unfortunate; I was 14 or 15 and the people I was with sprinkled it on a bowl of weed, then torched it up for me because young n00b. When it hit they told me I had smoked crack. I was pretty irate, uncomfortable, and tripping balls in a crowd of cruel strangers.

That experience that made me VERY protective of future trip buddies. People will do fucked up and mean things for no reason; for some, altered states are a window of holy exploration and not just shallow escapism.

If not salvia... ew. All of those synthetic highs are garbage. They don't contain anything that crosses the blood-brain barrier. If you feel any effect, it's because you're inhaling a concentrated aerosol suspension of carbon mono/dioxide and nitrogen. You might as well be choking yourself with a tube sock.

[DroppinSuga]

I choke myself with a tube sock on a nightly basis.

Very close to what I'm running. It is definitely rage inducing. Ultimate troll deck.

[Yarpus]

During one of the New Years I had to get my stomach sewed as I drank around 1 liter of illegal liquor. Shit was so bad that it made my stomach explode. Never seen that much blood in my life.
I actually had some issues with alcohol (there was a time in my life when I was getting wasted everyday), which is why I stopped drinking it for three years. I started again, but well, seems like I don't even have time to really get drunk.
Weed is weird as hell. I get really, really scared and psychotic when I use it.

[Kazekirimaru]

Weed is why I was obese most of my teenage life.

Yeahh...I'm not touching anything synthetic ever again. Stuff is bad news.

[hamfactorial]

I've never done any drug harder than alcohol, though mostly by circumstance. I went to a Catholic schools until I graduated and went to college, and drug abuse was pretty rampant there. Since I played 4 sports, I was subject to year-round random drug tests, and fear of being removed from the team kept me clean. In college, my friends' vices went only as far as drinking and playing video games, so I wasn't tempted.

Now that I'm working, I don't have any desire to spend my money on expensive grey market substances. I have enough trouble controlling my Magic card acquisition disorder.

[redthirst]

I'd like to take a moment to cordially invite every Tier 3+ member to get off their lazy bitch asses, go into the Private forum, and give their opinion about the potential shirt design.

Fuckers been fucking around all day when there's important business shit to do...

[hamfactorial]

buncha good for nothing shitdicks up in here

[redthirst]

Exactly.

Bitchass shitdick fucker cockwhores in here.
