Me too! I had so many Ideas! The 3rd or 4th time I took them, in amsterdam, I wrote down like about 30 pages in a notebook while in a cafe, then left a $20 euro tip (for one coffee) and bought the most expensive bottle of wine I could find (a present). I had worked out a THEORY OF ACTION!! And it worked for about 5 days!! Then I had to do my dissertation :(

I've never taken drugs but sometimes I have dreams where I think up the BEST IDEA EVER, usually ideas for stories. Sometimes they are mine and sometimes they are told to me by other people. Then when I wake up I can't remember what it was and I get very sad. I try to comfort myself by thinking that if I could revisit the dream in a rational, awake state of mind then the idea would make no sense, so it wasn't a loss to forget it, but then I think that man it would be cool if I could come up with fantasy novels in my head but no that would mean it was a small tragedy every time I woke up, but that thought is arrogant so I don't think it anymore.

It seems like (relative to more recent drug-related strips) this was sort of a cursory exploration into both the target audience and target humor of the Achewood universe.
While it's easy to see why Onstad might expect a preponderance of the web-comic audience to be interested in "specific" drug humor (meaning that the strip doesn't make a lot of sense unless you have a semi-intimate knowledge with hallucinogens), I've always appreciated the extent to which he melds this obvious prejudice of his demographic into a more playful, innocuous context. Periodically, he's gone into more specifics (Roast Beef in the golf cart, Ray under the table) to great success, but he also manages to keep these forays into the illicit within the same perspective of everything else.
A bit of a "wink, wink, nudge, nudge," but without the exclusivity of a real "inside joke" OR the over-played banality of stoner humor.
He truly is a man of the people.

This was the first strip I laughed at while at work - a place where jovial times are frowned upon.
On Achewood or shrooms?
Eh, it's pretty much stayed the same around the Bay since then.
[IMGS OFF]
I grow them, they are freaky little dudes, my cubes.
mad props dogg for that large of tasks
tbh, it's not that hard if you read up on what you're doing. and after 1 or two grows you'll be quite secure in knowing what to do, and it's easy seeing as you can reuse cakes.
ALSO:
Never pay more than $25 for an 1/8 of shrooms unless they're creepy-looking and blue, kids!
and in AU dollars? cause thats more than what i pay.
I could do the currency conversion but location determines supply and demand so I have no idea.
Who pays for shrooms in Australia? Go for a nature walk and pick your own mate, they're everywhere :)
hey i tried that once and vomited everywhere. also, sydeny has about as much nature as a bag of soap.
man you are insane
have you been to LA? NYC? sydney is utter wilderness compared to them.
You live way out in the western suburbs or something?
Sydney is a verdant, animal-filled wonderland of nature considering that it's a city of 3 million people.
Not too many cows about, it's true, but I don't really think of farm animals as a part of the natural world.
How much nature does a bag of soap have, anyway?
soap is traditionally made from wood ash and animal fat, so a lot actually
I think we're up to 7 million now cracklewater. In answer to your search: Southern Highlands. Fly Agaric. Holy Shit.
4 million born in three months? Damn Aussies, breeding like rabbits..

Breed. No one in Sydney gets dirty!
