Like battery acid/Plasticine and cheap cookware. Kind of like the used pots aisle of a Goodwill

Fuggin' goat!

Almonds. Explosives smell like almonds. Or cow shit. Depends on the kind.

People may think he's crazy, but part of psychedelics is hypersensitivity. I doubt he could actually see in the dark and smell landmines, but his brain probably recognized very small details and fabricated hallucinations based on what little he did pick up on.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe the elevated brain energy along with the will to survive or to avoid imminent death might coerce other areas of the brain to align with survival.

This is essentially the point I was trying to make across, but worded better.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Contrast in the dark is far better on psychedelics, I assume because of the massive pupil dilation

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No expertise here, but I wonder if neurons are more excitable on LSD. If every cell in your retina and optic nerve is trigger happy, you'd see more in the dark. More noise, too, I suppose.

Get out of Grateful Dead show on the last night in that town, hop in the car while still blazing face on 5 to 10 doses and drive hundreds of miles to the next venue. Night vision extreme!

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I sort of believe the seeing-in-the-dark thing. I was at an LSD party with my friends one night and we took a black frisbee out onto an unlit field (no moon) and threw it around without once dropping it. We just knew where everybody else was and where the disc was at all times. I dunno, maybe we could smell the frisbee.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Was anybody smoking? We always take a drag when we want the disc in the dark, bright cherry gets the toss

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No smoking - we'd never put weird chemicals into our bodies!

[–] [email protected] -4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

What a strangely ignorant way to reply to somebody trying to share your joy. Never smoked weed but you take acid? LSD isn't a "weird chemical" to you? Seriously? Reevaluate

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Pull your head out of you ass and laugh at their joke you buffoon.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

You can't detect an obvious joke? Seriously? Reevaluate

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Fuck man it's the Internet, it's hard to know what to expect. Pretty sure there's a way to mark sarcasm

But I'll take my lumps

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Your joke was funny, but them being trolled by it is even better 😅

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago

Your pupils get massive when you're on LSD, so I wouldn't be surprised if they're able to let in more light to let you see better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

That's super cool

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Petition for OP to crop the horizontal image from the vertical borders.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

If you add a section to eviscerate those erroneous commas, I will sign that petition.

Let's pause for a moment and focus on that intent:
I'm going to take LSD in a war zone.

It's like the psychedelic revolution smashed right into The Right Stuff test pilot daredevil attitude. Some people truly seem to be made different than you and me.

That said, it probably wasn't one of those legendary "heroic doses", as a certain low-to-medium range (which varies from person to person) does sharpen awareness of things we normally filter out automatically.

If this guy did LSD in a war zone, he's probably done it many times before, is familiar with its' effects, a medium dose for him might be a heavy one for the rest of us... mere mortals.

Dude went full Dennis Hopper for real.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Dude read about Dock Ellis's no hitter and said hold my beer and watch this

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

I love that story.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I'm not saying he could smell landmines, but apparently elephants and rats can.

Though I'm assuming their snouts are fairly close to the ground.

Who knows, maybe LSD unlocks the part of our brain which can smell landmines, and he was spiderman crawling in front of the camera crew, sniffing around like a TSA dog.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Rats definitely can (also for TB), and you can sponsor them to do so: https://apopo.org/

Magawa was a famous example: https://time.com/6138994/magawa-dies-landmines-cambodia/

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Wait, you guys can't smell landmines? I thought everyone could do that!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago

I wish I couldn't. It's extremely distracting as I'm trying to go about my daily routine.
