So this happened at UConn the other day...

https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/785981/Drunk-Kid-Wants-Mac-and-Cheese

Whats funnier is his name got out so I checked out his facebook and in the least shocking news ever: he's a racer.




But wait...there's more. He's also been arrested for assaulting a cop at UMass Amherst.

CONAIR_BUSCEMIHonestly I don’t understand why alcohol is legal and regulated but cannabis, shrooms, etc. are not. One causes over 33,000 deaths a year and the other two have killed no one.


The other two have killed no one since they're illegal so no one uses them. If they were legal there would be more people dying of marijuana than alcohol.

Pretty shitty of him to do, but it's also pretty shitty that he's getting nationwide attention for what is ultimately a very minor incident

Why then? They promote neurogenesis, there must be some reason why they are illegal.

CONAIR_BUSCEMIMakes sense, but I’m an adult I shouldn’t be told what not to ingest. I understand why alcohol is legal, I do not understand why shrooms are illegal. Could it be because they can make you question the status quo. idk, but I find it almost disgusting that shrooms are illegal and people are incarcerated for using, when they are less harmful to your psyche and internals than aspirin or Vitamin C.


shrooms have definitely killed people. between seizures, poisoning by misidentification, and dumb shit from people who were high and fell off a cliff or drowned in a pond, its not harmless. also unlike alcohol, typically delirium from shrooms can last for weeks or months if its a bad trip. alcohol, a hangover might last a day with nausea being the only issue, rather than psychosis.

So the people who have met this kid are really saying he was unassuming and not a spoiled prick from the beginning because I doubt he only turns into a spoiled d-bag when he's drunk.

Shrooms can cause dissociation in dosages that most people would not ingest. Even at the recommended 3.5 grams you do not hallucinate and see things that are not there. If anything you experience improved attention to detail.

Psilocybin mushrooms promotes neurogenesis in the correct dose/bodyweight ratio. Alcohol in excess is harmful to your psyche and internals.

Misidentification should not be compiled as a statistic on a psilocybin harm scale. That’s like saying some people on accident drank absinthe but thought it was a bud light. They do not correlate and shouldn’t be conflated.

Please, source your statements on delirium.

yeah this

shrooms are non-toxic so you can't technically overdose on them.
but they can break your brain. which you need to live.

Jesus I wanted to punch that kid so bad but still I can't help but feel that all this viral hate towards him is pretty fucked. Yes he acted like a huge asshole and he probably deserves what is coming for him but still seeing a bunch of grown men and women take time out of there days just to search him up and write shit to him is not that much better.

It sounds to me like he has a drinking problem, not excusing his behavior or what he did. But if he comes out of this realizing he has a drinking problem and gets help I dont see why it wont be for the better. From everyone I've heard he seems like a nice kid when he doesn't drink, I don't know him so can't speak on his behalf.

yes all because of drinking, (I take it) take my drunkest moments put them on film and you will think I'm an ass hole as well. He should have came out and said word for word have a drinking problem, and I'm getting help. not "i have problems im dealing with."

i see where you're coming from and im not disagreeing with you, but this still doesnt excuse his behavior and actions. i mean he might as well have anger problems as this was all about mac and cheese

You're missing my point, it does if 5-10 years down the road hes still sober and no longer get arrested or does this. It wont follow him for the rest of his life. Or he doesn't get help and he actually spends time in jail.
