TRIP-e

[themoles]

man i can not believe i fell for this shit
i had two of them big-ass pills (i hate swallowing pills)
there was really nothing but a slight buzz, no visions whatsoever
it's complete bullshit, don't even think about wasting your
money on that, rather buy two beer, you feel exactly the same

10 euro, for a puny beer-buzz ... whut the ...

 

[CryingOutLoud]

yeah i bought that shit too, first day i ate 1 and nothing and second day i ate 3 and i felt slight light headness. not worth the 10 euros

what pisses me off is the advertisement

"Let the wave carry you higher and higher. Be one with the
universe. Be in a state of bliss."

yeah right

That's the job of advertisment... Selling products.

What do you think that they'll put up there:
This product is the same as shit but we still try selling it to you by telling you that this is a waste of your money?

I totally agree. Also, I think that if you are at least to some extent familiar with psychoactives you can make your own "educated" guess of the effects just by lookin at the ingredients. And that might reveal something of the true nature of the product. And that in it's turn might help you to make some distinction between what's "advertising" and what's not.

the ingredients were clear to me, it contains HBWR, it was
a novelty, i just wanted to try it out, who knows

the rest is pretty much a question of principle, of course
they're bullshitting everyone, like most companies do ...

1. that doesn't make it right
2. companies do cheat but not to that extent, i never saw
a beer advertisement that claimed by drinking it you feel
like 'being one with the universe'.

Hehe didn't feel anything from trip-e ^^ perhaps the dose in the pills are to small

1. that doesn't make it right

No it doesn't, you're right about that . I just think that if you ARE familiar with these things and you now what the pills contain and you CHOOSE to believe more in the advertising than you own reasoning, well...

I'm not trying to say that bullshit advertising is ok, neither am I trying to be a pompous prick. But I don't see anything wrong trying to encourage the use of common sense. And I want to think that everyone of us has some, for we ARE messing around with very potential chemicals.

"Gillette - The best a man can get"

I don't know about others but I'd choose a blowjob from a sixteen year old over a razor any time.

Right, it just doesn't look too strong...

Some commercials even tell you that a certain kind of soap will make you feel one with the universe...
