In our Uni days, some friends and I at parties used to do something called a tequila suicide - instead of the usual lick the salt, drink the tequila, suck the lemon where each step was designed and timed to perfectly soften the hard edges of the experience and gently cancel each other out, you’d:
- snort the salt; as crystals they didn’t do a lot, but they would rapidly start to dissolve on your nasal mucosa and start giving you the worst saltwater sting up your nose
- drink the tequila; as you finish and breathe the burn, undiminished since you had no salt to moderate it on your tongue, you realise the salt in your nose is finally reaching a crescendo and the two different burns join forces to really amplify the suffering
- then, at the exact moment you’re crying out for the sweetness and distraction of the lemon… you squeeze it in your eye which instantly burns and completes the trinity of burning.
We’d record ourselves doing this… twice. The theory was the first time anyone could do it naively (after all, all mushrooms are edible *once*), but the second time we did it there could be no mistake we knew exactly what we were doing, and signed ourselves up for it anyway.
God we were dumb as shit.
Anyway, congratulations President Trump!
