Today, a man started a deep conversation with me at the bus stop about life, death, and the miracles of things we take for granted every day. I was really enjoying it until he looked at his watch and said, "Oh shit, mushrooms make me lose track of time!" and ran off into the night. FML

Today, I tried hallucinogenic mushrooms for the first time with my friend. Little did I know, they last for around 6 hours, and I had class at 3, when I had to give a presentation in front of 30 people. FML

Today, while on my run, I saw a middle-aged man sleeping near a business condo. I approached him and asked if he was "ok." He grabbed my leg, held onto it with a death-grip, and moped about how horrible his life was - for ten minutes. At least the weather was nice. FML

Today, after being hella single through this pandemic, I was gently stopped by an attractive man on my way to the bus stop. He looked deep into my eyes, and I took my headphones out so I could hear him better. Then, he started moving nervously, took a breath… and offered me meth, before tweaking away. FML

Today, I was talking to this girl who I thought was really nice. We were having an amazing conversation, and as we stared deeply in one another's eyes, she asked me, "Has anyone ever seen you take a shit?" She then began telling me the story of when someone watched her. FML

Today, I after getting off the bus, I realized that the man I was talking to was distracting me so his "buddy" could steal my wallet. FML

Today, I was having a deep conversation with a woman at a bus stop about philosophy. Little did I know, her boyfriend was rummaging through my purse while she kept my focus. I’m a PhD candidate in philosophy, and it was the best conversation I’d had it months. FML

Today, I met a cute guy for coffee. Everything was going fine, right up until he started telling me about his alien encounters and super psychic powers. FML

Today, a guy hit on me. It's such a rare occurrence that I didn't know how to react, so I panicked and said "Sorry, I have to go!" Then I remembered we were on a bus, and just turned around and awkwardly pretended he wasn't there. FML

Today, I got a call from my son’s teacher, saying that he raised his hand during a test to say he "couldn't focus, because the ‘metroids’ are harassing me.” Apparently, he forgot about the test and took a healthy dose of shrooms right before. FML

Today, a girl started talking to me at the bus stop. After it descended into an awkward silence, I jumped on my bus to avoid further conversation. She got on the same bus. And got off at the same stop. I swear the whole bus could feel the tension. FML

For some reason "ran off into the night" cracked me up. It just makes it seem that it was a mythic creature that you're not sure if you really saw or not

It's sad that it takes drugs and alcohol to get people to see life the way it should be. Why can't it be that way all the time?

Alcohol distorts real life.

I can answer your username; you just had a conversation with a high guy. I did that before, sure was weird.

Hey, he was pretty deep and coherent for being on drugs. Shrooms guy gave you something legit to think about. My friend just talked to someone she used to hang out with while he was high and he asked her if she, "knew how to speak dog."

In my psych class there were 4 guys who would get high on shrooms and talk about what we learned. That was the only way they studied and they all got A's.

cool? I got an "A" mark in psychology also, without the use of mind altering substances.

So did I. Our teacher marked on a curve though, only 5 A's were given.

I don't see an FML here. Just someone who, by her own admission, was enjoying a conversation until the dude ran off.

Well after all, spiritual enlightenment is a big part of doing those kinds of drugs.. For some people at least. In the 1950's psychologists would give things like psilocybin mushrooms, LSD, and MDMA to patients as a way to get them to more freely and vividly express their thoughts and emotions.
