Just get some Psilocybin Mushroom Spores and grow some shrooms at home....get the spores legally via the internet......find methods of preparing and growing....way better than that fancy absinthe crap....I think rich goth folks that think they are dracula do that stuff

The dracula thing is what most people refer to. the 90's dracula had them drinking that at the castle in the film. It is actually a very old european drink. There are many ways of making the stuff over there just like there is many ways to make beer. Some are good and some just suck. Goth is just a stereotype.

I went through half a bottle one night in London. I vaguely recall falling against a doorway and then kissing a Dutch woman. Or was it kissing a doorway and then falling against a Dutch woman? Or did I fall against a Dutch woman kissing a doorway? It's all a blur, really.

and I'm having a hard time imagining it was wise to give a kid a race car in the first place, considering the safety
It is illegal in the U.S.

i have a bottle, got it online. stuff tastes horrible, but you can definatly feel it. my suggestion would be to skip the whole sugar over a spoon thing and just take a shot mixed with your fav puckers 50/50 and chase it with a lot of anything you can find. my wife also thinks having a jolly rancher helps kill the taste.

btw, my brand is czech absinthe strong. i found it when maxim did their absinthe review.

I've partied with that stuff before. It's indeed a wierd feeling of intoxication. Like someone above said, it's kind of like being drunk and on shrooms at the same time. Not really earth shattering, but cool nonetheless. The best part is that most people have no idea what Absinthe is, so they get REALLY messed up the first time! Never forget my friends' faces after drinking some for the first time!
