    Aren’t there these weird stripes to lick that show some other drugs?

    Anyway, not being able to recall an alphabet might mean you’re doing drugs, it might also mean you’ve seen way too many people get shot by police for fun and you’re stressed as fuck.

      I can’t say I’ve seen those strips, I’ve seen the strips they use to determine what a solution of substance found is and typically just see an electronic saliva analyzer device. Either way, those field tests are so unreliable that judges don’t even accept them as evidence.

      Ya my brain empties when a cashier asks for my birthdate when I buy alcohol even though I’m in my 30s.
