Ah yes. April 20, 4/20.

Is this trash, you may ask? Nay, this is most definitely culture.

I don't know how well this applies to international SuFu'ers but I gotta think that SOME people on here are going to be celebrating this Friday.

What are your plans? Afterwards, we can all post pictures of ourselves being fucking blitzed, yet well-dressed. Woo.

Anyway I just plan on rolling myself some spliffs, taking the first toke at 4:20PM and not stopping until I pass out in the wee hours of the morning.

It's gonna be a great, great day.

[Tyro1]

What's the deal with this holiday and the significance of the date?

This is the one where canada (and the U.S.?) just get really stoned for a day right?

edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/420_%28cannabis_culture%29

By the way, what the fuck are they thinking drug testing journalists / photographers?

[keagan]

4:20 is fucking stupid.

IF i SEE ANOTHER SCRAWNY FUCKING KID WRITING "4:20" ON ANOTHER MOTHER FUCKING DESK I AM GOING TO SNAP.

That being said; Like anyother friday I'll probably spend the evening taking Diphenhydramine hydrochloride, and smoking a couple bowls/doing a line with nice bums and close friends.

[Kasper]

i had totally forgotten about 4:20, probably haven't heard about it since i was in high school...

[Larry Bird]

i dont smoke dirt anymore...always made me think too much, and brought on anxiety.

[corned beef]

finish my classes by about 2, smoke up for a while, and then go see RJD2 and smoke some more. Then back to campus for more alcohol and mary j. Should be a good time, hopefully i'm not still sick by the end of the week though ughr

[jeepster]

probably gonna pick some up sometime before than. settle into some good movies with a friend or hopefully a gal (please please please please please) and see where the night takes me. i'm not heavy on it, but i do enjoy getting deep and mellow.

[naturaljax]

just confirmed that I'm purchasing a personal dub.

this is gonna be a crazy day

[cureOne]

fuck 4/20 it's all about 4/19 BICYCLE DAY!!!

Bicycle Day

The psychedelic effects of LSD were unknown for the next five years. Dr. Hofmann writes in LSD: My Problem Child that a "peculiar presentiment" prompted him to revisit LSD-25. While re-synthesizing the compound for further study, he became dizzy and was forced to stop work:

Last Friday, April 16, 1943, I was forced to interrupt my work in the laboratory in the middle of the afternoon and proceed home, being affected by a remarkable restlessness, combined with a slight dizziness. At home I lay down and sank into a not unpleasant intoxicated-like condition, characterized by an extremely stimulated imagination. In a dreamlike state, with eyes closed (I found the daylight to be unpleasantly glaring), I perceived an uninterrupted stream of fantastic pictures, extraordinary shapes with intense, kaleidoscopic play of colors. After some two hours this condition faded away.

Three days later, on April 19, 1943 (known as Bicycle Day), Dr. Hofmann intentionally ingested 250 µg of LSD, which he hypothesized would be a threshold dose, based on other ergot alkaloids. In reality, this is a fairly substantial dose and the threshold would actually be around 25 µg. Hoffman wrote:

By now it was already clear to me that LSD had been the cause of the remarkable experience of the previous Friday, for the altered perceptions were of the same type as before, only much more intense. I had to struggle to speak intelligibly. I asked my laboratory assistant, who was informed of the self-experiment, to escort me home. We went by bicycle, no automobile being available because of wartime restrictions on their use. On the way home, my condition began to assume threatening forms. Everything in my field of vision wavered and was distorted as if seen in a curved mirror. I also had the sensation of being unable to move from the spot. Nevertheless, my assistant later told me we had traveled very rapidly.

Dr. Hofmann summoned a doctor, who could find no abnormal physical symptoms other than extremely dilated pupils. After spending several hours terrified that his body had been possessed by a demon, that his next door neighbour was a witch, and that his furniture was threatening him, Dr. Hofmann feared he had become completely insane.

[The doctor] saw no reason to prescribe any medication. Instead he conveyed me to my bed and stood watch over me. Slowly I came back from a weird, unfamiliar world to reassuring everyday reality. The horror softened and gave way to a feeling of good fortune and gratitude, the more normal perceptions and thoughts returned, and I became more confident that the danger of insanity was conclusively past. Now, little by little I could begin to enjoy the unprecedented colors and plays of shapes that persisted behind my closed eyes. Kaleidoscopic, fantastic images surged in on me, alternating, variegated, opening and then closing themselves in circles and spirals, exploding in colored fountains, rearranging and hybridizing themselves in constant flux. It was particularly remarkable how every acoustic perception, such as the sound of a door handle or a passing automobile, became transformed into optical perceptions. Every sound generated a vividly changing image, with its own consistent form and color ... Exhausted, I then slept, to awake next morning refreshed, with a clear head, though still somewhat tired physically. A sensation of well-being and renewed life flowed through me. Breakfast tasted delicious and gave me extraordinary pleasure. When I later walked out into the garden, in which the sun shone now after a spring rain, everything glistened and sparkled in a fresh light. The world was as if newly created. All my senses vibrated in a condition of highest sensitivity, which then persisted for the entire day. This self-experiment showed that LSD-25 behaved as a psychoactive substance with extraordinary properties and potency. There was to my knowledge no other known substance that evoked such profound psychic effects in such extremely low doses, that caused such dramatic changes in human consciousness and our experience of the inner and outer world.

Interest in the drug was revived after Dr. Hofmann's experiment, and the University of Zurich began conducting systematic human trials on both normal participants and psychiatric patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. In both cases, the predominant reaction was euphoria. Sandoz began producing LSD under the trade name Delysid for research, suggesting that the drug might be useful "to elicit release of repressed material and provide mental relaxation, particularly in anxiety states and obsessional neuroses" and also for self-experimentation by psychiatrists, "to gain an insight into the world of ideas and sensations of mental patients".

Gonna be dropping a few tabs of acid and trying to ride my bike down to the beach (this will be very very hard)

[sean_]

all i do every day is smoke, 4 20's just another day over here

[jeepster]

i'm not up to acid yet. college most likely. even then its not gonna be like a real kinda thing, acid/lsd hasn't been the same since it was banned in 1967. its all cut with weird shit and distributed by shady people. i'm no hippie, but i think there should at least be a rule that dealers should be nice, amicable, decent fellows.

[derek]

It's a Friday so I will get fucked up like usual, not for some stupid high school 4/20 shit though

[flux]

^^Youre cool. Even if you smoke the most weed in the world 420 should be embraced by those that smoke being that it is recognized by many as a day of tokage. I smoke all the time but on 420 I usually smoke alot more than I usually would, same with everyone else.

[__Nicholas]

on friday i'll probably meet up early at my buddies lake house with some friends, and blaze it up all day... i'll have some pictures for the thread

[samsikle]

going out to dinner for my birthday. i should blaze becas i haven't for a while

[dizzle]

I gotta work for most of the day unfortunately, so I won't be able to blaze until late. Unless, I get high before work, but that's usually not a great idea..

Not a big deal tho, its really just another normal day of blazin up for me.

[naturaljax]

I still get retarded when I smoke, I can't risk smoking before class.

I'd get fucked

[sean_]

oh yea any toronto heads who stumble on this thread, you guys down with kindred cafe???

[naturaljax]

hey help me make a 4/20 playlist.

I've already got a good amount of reggae, but what else is good to listen to whilst faded?
