What is it? what are some synonyms for it?

Is that the hard liquor with the shards of metal in it that cut your bowels so it enters sooner?

it's a strong liqour with wormwood in it. it was a favorite of van gogh.

Wormwood?

that shit seriously destroys your brain and other things also. I'd never touch it.

"It causes irreparable deterioration of the brain
stem and liver, due to the powerful hepatics in the wormwood being
altered by alcohol. Symptoms begin to show within 3 - 6 months of
continued use (remember, its addictive) and begin with depression,
emotional instability, and jaundice, then progress to tremors, difficulty
breathing, erratic heartbeat, neural failure, then finally heart/lung
failure. Absinthe
was a traditional drink of poets in the 18th and 19th centuries and its
no coincidence that a) poets were considered to be mad b) poets died
terribly young (late 20's - early 30's)"

You are such a buzz-kill. I bet you're a narc too.

Wormwood?

and you live in europe? shame on you. go buy a bottle and split it with someone you can have a long and intelligent conversation with. you'll thank me.

I'd first have to know what it's called in Dutch. Maybe then I'll realise I've actually drank it lol.

It supposed to be absolutely mindblowing? or more like just one small step beyond booze?

 

[Robert Jan]

I've never done it. And it IS actually illegal in Holland.

While XTC, weed, hasj and mushrooms are not.
I guess it's pretty hardcore.

A friend just told me it's just totally passé and the feeling doesn't weigh up to the easy addiction, the lame taste, and the health consequences. Thats for old guys from the 1900's he said

it's not hardcore in the least. i am REALLY surprised it is illegal there. it's not illegal to possess in the states, it is just illegal to sell.
