Irritating RE teacher
She looked like yoda and was rather incongruously an atheist. She was a bag of nerves and would vent her frustration at not really being able to connect with people into bizarre disciplinary procedures for the slightest misdemeanor. She was also incredibly boring. Universally hated.

One day my brother and a mate were being taught cookery by her in a general studies lesson. They made a chilli con carne, with a secret ingredient - 10 grams of hashish. Of course she got to try it first, and when she enjoyed it, she was encouraged to finish the whole thing.

Now this is a pretty serious offense - spiking a teacher's food with psychedelics. I in no way endorse such activity. It's a wonder they got away with it. But the fact remains all that happened was she was off "sick" the next day and nothing was said about it. We still speculate on the sort of scary RE lesson she could have been having in her head by the evening and how the hell she managed to drive home?

You know, I 'unlike' this story for reasons twofold:
1 - That was a bit dangerous for your teacher.

2 - What a waste of perfectly good drugs! If you had all had some and somehow bonded with teacher or made a universal breakthrough in communication and understanding, I could dig it.

ummm..
1. I pointed this out in the story. Further it wasn't me who did this. It was a pretty appalling thing to do, yes. I've remonstrated with people who boast about being involved in the past. I don't get on with my brother very well for reasons to do with drugs (hard drugs these days, sadly). We have mutual friends in this small town and that story comes up every now and again in the pub.

2. I didn't waste the hash. I didn't touch anything like that at the time. But yeah, its nice to think about a big school-love in that changes everyone's persepctives for the better.. that would definitely have been a better story.

10 grams is half an ounce
if someone couldn't tell that something was wrong from texture alone then they were a moron

also, that is a huge waste

why wouldn't they eat it themselves?

mind you, eating half an ounce would fuck you right up

edit: I had a mental block there, thinking that an eighth was 2.5g

now I feel foolish

I'll sell you a couple of 'ounces' if you want mate.

The ounces I get are 28g....

ounces
I only buy in Troy ounces 31.1 grams. Its fun to buy two ounces of hash with one ounce of gold

It's extremely doubtful..
..she had ever been around any sort of illegal drugs before. From personal experience you can put an 1/8th (of an ounce - 3.5g) of hash in hot chocolate and it tastes quite nice - a bit different but pretty tasty.

And they didn't need to eat it themselves. My bro funded his party lifestyle throughout school by dealing weed from the age of 13.

The whole story's not particularly nice really. I might remove it.

No need for that!
It's a fairly benign prank, really - apart from the driving risk, I suppose.

If they'd have doesed the teacher with acid then you have an entirely different story on your hands. That shit is not funny at all.

Indeed..
..having been spiked with acid myself I can't stand to be around anyone who preaches about the stuff, and have physically threatened cunts who joke about spiking people. Been unlucky enough to have some horrible, terrifying trips that have fucked me up for months. Eating hash is not quite the same unless you eat an enormous amount (if you believe the tales of old French writers who would consume a sort of green jelly that was almost entirely made from skunk pollen oil - see Baudelaire's "artifical paradises").

I'm still not comfortable with my story. The whole idea of spiking people makes me nervous.

There's also a 'hashish trip' sequence
In Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo and it's described as that green shit - always wondered about that.

Although of course it won't have been skunk oil as skunk's less than 25 years old...

Skunk is just..
..the unfertilised female plant, no?

I'm sure Baudelaire mentions how it's the female plant that is important in the preparation. I might be wrong. What is it exactly? I should probably know this since I smoke enough of the stuff.

I know that you want to get rid of the male ones
if you are growing. not entirely sure why though...

still feeling foolish from my brain impediment further up.

I won't bore you (much)
THC levels drop after pollination: when you remove the males from the crop before this can occur you get no seeds and the weed is stronger.

This technique produces sensimilla - 'without seeds' - skunk is a particular type of sensimilla developed through selective breeding to have a high THC content, and was first marketed in the late 80s I think.

So Baudelaire would have been ingesting sensi oil - but not skunk.

Cheers..
..and that's me resolved to stop talking about weed. Drugzzzzzz....

No worries..
..it's one of my messageboard weaknesses that I get touchy when riled even slightly. *needs a life*
