As I told you a few weeks ago, this November the voters of California will decide whether or not marijuana should be legalized or not. In the article, Legalizing Marijuana, So Politicians Can Spend More Money, I gave my reasons for being against the initiative. After all, the last thing we need to do in California is feed the drug habit of politicians by giving them another product to tax millions of dollars on for their already failed programs. That's right, tax dollars is just as addictive to politicians as crack cocaine is to those caught in it's web of short term euphoria. History has shown us that if a politician just smells tax revenue that they will break as many laws as a drug addict to get their fix.
Well there was a scientific study done a few years back on the effects of certain drugs on spiders, and the results were astonishing. What they discovered was that different drugs had different effects on the way the spiders created their webs. The results from these types of studies should help convince those still on the fence about the dangers behind legalizing drugs, even marijuana.
Now this video has been out for anyone willing to watch it for a few years now. So some of you may have already seen it, but for those who have not, I guarantee you will enjoy it.
Either way this video is just too funny.
Wow, that “caffeine” stuff sure messed that spider up bad. There oughta be a law against it!
did they do a spider on Alshohol?
You can say that again...
The spiders must have ingested an nearly fatal dose of caffeine to have gotten to that level! Normal coffee drinkers have no problem, and in fact, caffeine is thought to protect against Alzheimers and most people do better on logic problems and similar after consuming the amount of caffeine contained in a cup or two of coffee.
So I’d say there’s a bit of skewing in this! But Obama probably wants to criminalize coffee along with salt...if people like it, it’s got to be bad.
It’s comedy, not an actual scientific experiment.
LOL definitely worth watching!
If you want some real hahas, check out the YouTube videes on Salvia.
You could probably call it “seeing spiders on drugs.”
The best anecdotal cure for drugs I’ve heard recently, was of some roommates annoyed at their roommate for smoking too much Salvia. They didn’t object too much at first, since it is legal in their State, but then they found out he was going to smoke a bunch when he was already high on LSD. Which is still very illegal. This ticked them off.
So they put on makeup, and waited until he was blitzed, then entered the room as zombies, moaning “braaaiiinnnsss!”
In a panic, he ran right out the front door, head first into the pool, in winter, when the water was very cold. He was able to get out, and by that time, they had wiped most of the makeup off.
“Whud happened to the zombies?”, he asked, still scared.
“The zombies got them!”, they replied.
After sobering up, he stopped doing drugs for a long time.
Spicoli spder: “Hey...I know that dude!”
Hopefully, spiders practice safe sex when on drugs or (and) alcohol.
It said the caffeine dosed spider spun a normal web.....then is showed the spider demolishing it. Even water is deadly if you drink too much of it.....moderation here maybe?
FUNNIEST thing i’ve seen all week!
For those of us who grew up in Canada watching these hinterland short films it is doubly funny.
dang... we need o regulate caffeine. We need a tax on it to save the wood spider.
Does a spider on acid or LSD have hallucinations of people crawling all over them?
Yea, but he made it fast, you should see his 401k.
