The other day I read a column which recommended that Dubya "can embrace a Reaganesque politics of joy."
And, since I hardly identify Reagan with "joy," I of course wanted to know what the author was smoking to cause him to think that way.
Now this substance would have to reduce your brain to
a pile of goo, enabling it to be reshaped around whatever inane point of view you're trying to grasp. But then, when the effect wears off, it must return your brain to its normal state.
Just think of all the misunderstandings it would clear up! The Middle East, Northern Ireland, Yugoslavia, Florida butterfly ballots, the French vs. the English in Quebec, you vs. your parents, etc., etc., etc.

Joy? That's a popular detergent, isn't it? |

So what are you suggesting? That someone invent a harmless drug that can be held responsible for such articles, or that each article be annotated not just with the author's name, but also with a reliable description of their state of intoxication at the time? |

Is the question now "What is Arghblah smoking?" |
|
| |
For some reason, I can see an idea in the culture:game show category with this title. |
|
| |
I thought argblah's idea was that there should be some readily-available intoxicant which would mushify my brain, so that I could understand the author's point of view. Upon encountering an incomprehensible article or whatever, I would light up, or inject, and soon it would All Make Perfect Sense. At least until the drugs wore off. |

I was thinking yet anothe addition to Bud's (in)famous wassup series. "What are YOU smoking?!!" |
|
| |
now we know why it's called DOPE....... |
|
| |
Yeah, but wiml, that exists already. It's called alcohol. And pot, probably, although I wouldn't know. |

I suspect a lot of this may be happening for me this week: I've just spent a day and a half setting up for the University Real Ale Society Beer Festival. You know it's going to be a good event when you have to spend a morning with plastic and hardboard, waterproofing the floor! <homer> Mmmm! 80 casks of beer </homer> |

If this drug exsisted, it would take away the phrase "What are you smoking?". And trust me, I use it a LOT!!! |
