3rd Plat is fun. Fourth can be dangerous but third is definitely where you want to go if your looking for a real trip.

Yeah, 4th is just too much w/o a week to recover afterward. I took over 1600 mg once, I was completely and utterly disaccociated, pre-anesthetized I would bet lol.

Not a bad price if its good weed. And the crystals and red hair just means there is more THC (which is what you want). So the flashier it is, tends to mean its better weed. Usually you can just tell by the smell though.

DXM is what you take when you have a runny nose, sore throat, or allergies. Its in most cough medicines, and is the reason you do not take much. If you have heard of someone drinking a bottle to feel better, all it will do is make them trip.

That is the reason when you see commercials these days they stress that is tastes really bad so that kids wont go out and down it.

I'm not sure if this has been touched upon yet, but THC you can not overdose on, the rest you can. So what is the best drug now?

What? You live in Pittsburgh and you think that $130 is a GOOD price for 1/2 ounce? Dealers traffic hundreds of pounds through Charrington every day, and it's like $150 at most for an ounce of good-quality bud.

And just so you know, flashiness isn't necessarily an indication of good weed. Sure, strands like Acapulco Gold, Panama Red, and White Widow have unusuallly high concentrations of THC and they're pretty flashy, but most deviations in color are just differences in chlorophyll levels. In fact, from my experience, a lot of flashy weed can be bad. Designer labeled weeds that showcase a menagerie of colors are notorious for their lack of THC, because growers introduce new plants for hybridization. Without an adequate presence of cannabis, the THC levels drop dramatically. I've smoked some flashy stuff, and no matter how many bowls I packed I just got a slight lightheaded buzz.

From my experience, the smell is a much surer way to determine quality. Stinky weed is good.

Wrong. Conventional methods of using nicotine and caffeine prevent you from ingesting more than your body can handle at any one time. It's like drinking beer. You can't get alcohol poisoning from just drinking beer. You throw up or you pass out before you can ingest enough. Furthermore, there are no known cases of overdose on LSD or psychedelic mushrooms. Just bad trips.

And actually, most overdoses are not actually "over" doses, they're just instances when two drugs interact (to the misfortune of the victim). Countless people die each year because they don't realize that.

Caffeine pills is a relatively conventional way of taking caffeine (if you're a truck driver anyway) and that shit can kill you. And if you confused your conventional method of smoking cigarettes a bit and ate one or three it could probably kill you too.

No kidding, caffeine pills can kill you. But most deaths are sleep apnea related, not actual overdoses (the LD 50 is ridiculous - like 50 grams or so). And eating filter-free cigarettes is much better for you than smoking them. The amount of nictotine in a cigarette is minute - about 1.1 mg, and your body would absorb that much more slowly than inhaling it. I don't see how you could possibly die from an overdose that way.

EDIT: Okay, so it's not 50 grams. Wikipedia says 192 mg/kg, which would be approximately 12-18 g. That's still more than a whole bottle of pills.

I've OD'd on caffeine before, on about 1 gram and felt like I was going to die. I read somewhere that the LD50 was 7 grams which still freaked me out. Obviously I've never had that kind of experience with pot. As for cigarettes, it's not the nicotine that would kill you from eating them but all the other toxic sh1t they put in there. So I guess that doesn't really count. Whatever.
