Somehow I don't think I want to be in his team, cleaning up his code:

Artist on LSD

[Nifster]

Everybody lets get stoned. /s

Pure idiocy

[bigbob]

the blue acid is not specifically too good...

[Defiant]

“It’s like taking spinach and you’re Popeye.”

Or it's like taking spinach and the spinach starts talking to you through your belly button.

[Defiant]

Paging Jeff Sessions. Drop everything, you are needed!

"How cute ...the puppy wants to get high at work......"

[MarineBrat]

If you’re unhappy with who you are, change your person, not your perspective.

[SaveFerris]

Meanwhile, drug-free Americans are shut out of work.

I fear for the future of this country. Some of the stupid runs really, really deep.

One of the side effects of LSD is 'acid flashbacks', when the drug starts working again after it has been ingested. Would you really want your doctor or lawyer seeing the world like this at unpredictable times?

[nopardons]

These Millennials are morons and why they want to recreate what they imagine the late 1960s were like, is beyond me.

[Mariner]

Well, except “flashbacks” are a bullshit story.

There is no such thing as an acid flashback. Nobody who has ever taken acid has had a flashback.

[blueplum]

from Adderall to LSD, who’da thunk. I wonder if this idiot would like to own a car assembled by losers on acid?

[Hugin]

As the article states 15 micrograms is a very tiny dose, not enough to feel a high. I don’t think anyone’s ever studied the effects of micro doses of LSD. It would make for an intersting study. There could actually be something to it.

As for Kieth, acid wasn’t his problem. His problem was being addicted to herion, and ingesting huge amounts of cocaine. And getting old.

[equaviator]

How does he know that it’s really LSD and not some ‘reasonable’ facsimile thereof?

[Reverend Wright]

Drugs are sorcery.

[Karl Spooner]

I remember the purple haze tabs. Pretty good stuff.

"Every three days Nathan (not his real name), a 27-year-old venture capitalist in San Francisco, ingests 15 micrograms of lysergic acid diethylamide (commonly known as LSD or acid). The microdose of the psychedelic drug – which generally requires at least 100 micrograms to cause a high – gives him the gentlest of buzzes. It makes him feel far more productive, he says, but nobody else in the office knows that he is doing it. “I view it as my little treat. My secret vitamin,” he says. “It’s like taking spinach and you’re Popeye.”

Wow, Nathan, when you fall on your hikeadelic, or get snakebit, or stung by a Loxosceles, enjoy your co-morbid interaction at the ER when you fail to disclose your liquid sunshine...

And we scratch our heads in wonder over the insanity that, like a tidal wave, has overtaken the world. Smh.
