So I take something similar to Ritalin for ADHD. Day of my highschool grad photos I forget to take them… I looked SO STONED. Some of my buddies still laugh at me for it.

My doctor had me on Ritalin for a couple of years and he and my parents were both baffled as to why it wasnt working and how I could wake up and be a hell raiser until I went to bed every day of my early youth. Eventualy I think they kicked in around age 21, got real mellow real fast for some reason.

We need to have a discussion about Cro-Magnon cave dwellers.

You mean literally every human that exists today?

There is a photo of me looking stoned out of my mind at a party for my brother before he got married. I wasn't stoned, just really exhausted. The droopy expression was about the same, though. If you didn't know I haven't indulged in currently or previously illegal substances for more than 30 years, you would assume that I had just smoked about a pound of weed before that photo. Looks can be deceiving sometimes.

Can confirm, super stoned and super tired look pretty much the same.

Wish I could join but all I have is this. Can I be like an awkward cousin to y'all?

The super tired look is such a misconception when it comes to musicians, more so the heavy touring ones. The non druggies are interpreted as the druggies.

At least you have something to offer, I'm still on my quest.
Nice by the way!

Sometimes we're both tired and stoned.

Though I don't really think of stoners as "druggies" if all they do is smoke weed.

Looks like a bird to me. A slightly pointier than usual bird, but still a bird.

Thanks, I knew Gibson was out of reach. I was questing till I found this. I'm happy with it.

I explain my motive behind it in my NBD post.

We don't suffer from closed mindedness about awkward cousins around here.

I think our reigning monarch may have one like that. I know he's got a Jackson. Or maybe I'm confusing it with somebody else's Jackson. There are a few around.

Agreed. My thing is all the ones I was exposed to growing up were 95% heroin and cocain addicts, wasn't pretty.

The grass was ok with me.

I actually prefer Epiphone to recent Gibson.

I had a feeling y'all were purists on the subject. I'll just sit on the sidelines and pretend.

Sounds like a plan to me.

Eeek!

Yeah, that's some serious poopie. I stay away from that. In my experience, heroin addicts don't live very long, and cocaine turns people into ******** and they waste all their money on it.

Nah, even our Queen has a Jackson bird.

We are about as pure as... Um, give me some time...

Be prepared for a lot of questions about vintage brothers bass, post all that Burn.

 

[Korladis]

Got people in here playing Gibsons, Epiphones, Grecos, Jacksons, ESPs, Spectors, etc.

As I quote a line from a Zappa tune, "don't try to look behind my eyes, you don't wanna know, what they have seen".
