I remember first hearing about this years ago on Church of Lazlo. Kinda surprising it isn't illegal. I have no idea, but have to wonder if politically all of the pressure is on legalization, rather than finding new things that should probably be illegal given the context of the other things that are illegal.

And I'm not saying I believe it should be illegal, either. Haven't heard of Kratom being a big problem anywhere, and it looks like it's sold all over now. Just seems inconsistent.

Man, only 5 boxes that I left unchecked. Thankfully that was the result of my rebellious youth from ‘95-‘03. Most of that was fairly harmless experimentation and fun. Cocaine got on top of me a bit back in the day though. Thankfully in the last 20 years it’s only been weed and alcohol.

I have never used drugs recreationally.

Weed

just the front row at arrowhead in the mahomes era

that's some good shit

I'm one of those weirdos that's never smoked a cigar or cigarette. It makes it doubly weird considering the era I grew up in and that my high school had a student smoking section. Never ever was curious about any of it. Weed, as well, and that might be wilder than the nicotine thing, especially considering today's climate.

Did ecstasy once on Bourbon Street. It was alright but not something I needed to feel again. I tried shrooms exactly once and went on to meet my future ex-wife that night. Never again with any of that demon shit, and you can cram the rest of it as well. I learned my lesson. Lol

Did a drug we called MDA back in the 70s but I don't know if that's the same thing as MDMA these days.

Looking at the poll my drug experimentation looks fairly common or average.

I forgot I tried Kava in Fiji , my face got pretty numb not really what I call fun.

I didn't do anything until 20 and Scottsdale.
But I made up for lost time.

Once or twice a year I'll bow to peer pressure and have part of a glass of wine. I've never tried anything other than alcohol.

Dr. Pepper and Pibb Xtra are the only gods who squeeze me in their iron fists.

Small town Iowa has Pibb Xtra as a constant BOGO.
I don't understand it.

My one experience with LSD was enough to make me never do it again. I'm far too high strung and brooding to take something that causes me to loose control of my emotions. That was a terrible night.

Never cared for pot. Hated the high. It just made me sleepy, hungry and stupid. Unfortunately I enjoyed the hell out of coke. That shit left a five year hole in my life in the early/mid-90s. At least I was a mostly functional addict - I managed to keep a job, not get busted and not die. Other than that, I was a waste of space and oxygen. Finally quit cold turkey, made a complete break from it, excised all the idiot coke buddies/parasites from my life and never went back. As soon as I did that, my life did a 180. I assume if I tried it now at my age my heart would simply explode. No thanks.

And God knows I've drank enough booze in my life to fill a water tower, but I'm pretty much done with that. My drunk days are long since over. Never developed a taste for wine, and honestly, I never liked beer, either - any beer. When I was young I just drank to get drunk, and that desire is gone. My favorite beers are the ones I dislike the least. Can't remember the last time I drank one. I'll still have the occasional finger of scotch or some random shot at a bar, but the amount of alcohol I drink in a year could fit in a coffee cup with room to spare.

At this point, my last vice is vaping. I switched to that from smoking prior to my ACL surgery last year and have no desire to go back. Vaping is cheaper, cleaner and doesn't make me smell like an ashtray or have coughing fits in the morning.

Oh, and lots of caffeine still. Lots and lots of caffeine. :D

Being born in 1961 I was exposed to the tail end of what were the real hippies. The innocence of smoking pot in the 70s on a warm summers day had a nice feel to it.

Same.
