hey guys... I saw the movie "Eurotrip" the other day and the people were doing shots of Absinth. I was just wondering if the alcohol actually has psychedelic effects like they portrayed it. It must be pretty powerful stuff considering that it is illegal here in the US. Could you guys give me the inside scoop of what it is like? I was thinking about buying a bottle of it from the internet.
Thanks!

I wouldn't be handing it out to girls again in a hurry if I were you
I drank some on holiday in mallorca. It's the most vile tasting substance I have ever had, altho we were drinking it straight from the bottle, I think your supposed to mix it with sugar then set it on fire first. I never hallucinated tho!

Yeah I had it with the sugar and shit £5 a shot....
I was minced already too.
Then the bar staff stood on the bar and poured after shock straight down my neck. I was being greedy (went up 3 times) so they desided to hold it there (couldn't move that stuff stains).
Anyway only interesting effect of it was I had a weird dream where my pillow was wet.....
Then I woke up the next day my pillow was stuck to my head (actually). The previously redish sheet now had a blue tint. This had happened when I had spewed up basicly pure alchol and it took the dye outta the blue matress and pulled it up into the previously redish sheet.
There were no chunks it was pure liquid. And by the morning it had evaporated away.
....lovely

100 proof does not = 100% abv
when you see 'proof' that means it is measured in degrees, its something like, the temperature to which you can heat 1cm cubed of water in a certain amount of time or something...
but anyway, real absynth is actually illegal here, what you buy usually is imitation absynth. original absynth was actually halucenogenic
