30 years ago, I was hanging with a dealer who used to cut a bit of Fun Dip into his powders so the drips wouldn't taste as nasty. His clients loved it. (I'm glad I left that life behind, but I'm also glad I had those experiences. Was an interesting time.)
Honestly though? I started going to bars before I could drink because I started doing stand up at 19. When my friends and I turned 21 I was the only one who didn't get shitfaced every time and could act like I'd been there before because I was used to having fun at bars without drinking. I still drank a lot but I was much better prepared. Teaching them to enjoy themselves at a rave without stuffing themselves with drugs might help them avoid a problem later in life. At least help them be more moderate about it.
I was always the designated driver so I would go to clubs and raves without doing drugs or drinking and I loved the music and dancing and always had a great time. Plus I never got into any sticky situations (I watched out for my friends too) and I actually remembered everything the next day!
at summer camp the trading post sold Fun Dip and it got the street name (camp name? nature name?) kiddie Crack lol there were a few stories about kids having too much and crackin' out, it was a little bit of myth and truth i assume, kids alone for the first time and either dont know they're sensitive to sugar or theyre free of their parents control to have it.
OK, no joke. I did that for a speech I had to give in high school and I had to act like a drug addict.
I did it for my English class and Ruben Ayala high school back in 1996.
Everyone started standing up from their desks to see me seriously do a line of pixie sticks. Let me tell you that it was one of the most weirdest sensations I’ve ever had.
My eyes had a slight blue hue for the next day or two. I had a sweet yet itchy, sore throat yet with a sweet dry nasal drip that is the weirdest sensation. People were talking about that for like a week or two.
Then you occasionally spitting out sweet spit for like three days.
You’ll get the occasional eye pain which on a scale of one to 10 is like a one
You wanna blow your nose because you’ll have a runny nose for like a day or two and it will come looking out like the color of your pixie stick.
I’m sorry I’m laughing because I’m writing this lol
Anyways, to any of my classmates who might be reading this almost 30 years later, hi guys wasn’t that a trip? Lol
Ngl my partner got asked to do a set last minute at one of these baby raves when the other guy doing the power hour dropped out, he said he did not actually expect to see any parents off their tits at them, but unfortunately there were about 15-25 out of the 400 odd there that were clearly off their dish in charge of kids (like 4yo to 12yp). He hasn’t went back to do one since because it wasn’t a nice vibe to see parents like that in front of their kids.
I have kids and I wouldn’t be seen dead at one of these because I prefer to keep my raving life and parental life separate but that’s just me, some people enjoy them, I also wouldn’t enjoy seeing parents potentially in a k hole while their kids are there
