I once gave a speech on butterflies while stoned off my ass. Got really, REALLY fucking stoned, with a buddy cause I was pretty sure I didn’t have to go to that class that day. Checked the syllabus and turns out I had to go. We picked the subject of other people’s speech, and gave a 3 minute “speech” on butterflies, which I mostly just modified Mitch hedberg jokes to fit butterflies. Got the class laughing and got an A. 🤷🏼♂️
Comment on Do you have what it takes to become a geologist?

I couldn’t do it, I’d be worried everyone could tell I was high. Tbf tho, no one called him out for licking rocks… sooooo idk. I’d just hate to be remembered as the rock licking guy

Mitch Hedberg jokes while high is a pretty smart move. Either that or you’re the only person who finds them funny and end up looking like an idiot.

My only experience being high was I met up with some friends where schedules only aligned for the one evening, and I had 2 conflicting goals: try some THC and play with some servers with the other computer nerd in the group. Trying to remember the commands and workarounds for weird hardware+distro compatibility quirks while my brain was soup was quite an experience!

Accepted behavior among geologists

I took a geology course in college. The raw giddiness the professor hit on seeing a very bland gray rock still makes me laugh thinking about it. Dude was starstruck by a large grey lump. I think he would have gladly licked the rock if he thought no one was looking.
I 100% believe the above.

I partied with geologists. Trust me they licked that rock. Totally what they do. I knew one that joked about keeping a few pebbles in his pocket of Gypsem or kaolinite or some other sedentary rock to chew on to make a point about how much he was a geologist.
There is a whole tongue test is to tell if it’s bone or rock anyways. I bet the guy on LSD was to busy high to notice half his classmates were probably licking the rocks sober.
