WOULD YOU LIKE TO PARTAKE IN SOME BED BUGS?

     So, I was at band rehearsal last night when my drummer, Steve says to me, "You should write about those kids getting high on bed bugs for your next blog!" I immediately stopped whatever it was I was doing and turned to him and asked, "Um, what?" So, he explained it to me and I was absolutely blown away! What the hell is going on with the world as we know it? 

     I had to dive in and learn more about this. Apparently, an article about this trend came out in April of 2014, but I never saw it until now. Just when we thought that the youth of today couldn't get any more stupid, they come up with a new, and I wish I could say amazing, way to get high, rewriting the definition of "probably a bad idea." The fad originated in Arizona, my favorite state in the U.S., where a group of bored kids thought up the bright idea of capturing bed bugs, crushing up the bodies and inserting the body parts into bongs or hookas. Once the body parts were in place, the kids lit the bongs up and inhaled the fumes created by the burning pieces of bed bug body parts. First of all, that is gross! Secondly, that is gross!

     The kids who have taken up this fad swear that inhaling the smoke from the bed bug pieces have brought on visual and auditory hallucinations, much like what one would experience if they took acid, which is an amazing experience. From what I hear. A friend told me. I swear! 

     Bed bugs are known in the scientific community to secrete an active hallucinogenic chemical, that produces a feeling once ingested, that one user said resembles "walking on wet concrete." That's almost like a mushroom trip. I mean....That's what my friend told me. I swear! As I was saying the fad's beginning is speculated to have occurred when some teens with bed bugs in their homes decided to research the creatures online, when he coincidentally discovered that the insects contain a hallucinogenic chemical and then figured he'd try it.

     There are those who believe this is just a fad, while some claim the story is fake to create a public outrage, but there are investigative reports that have witnessed children on the streets smoking what they believed were bed bugs proving that this phenomenon is far from "fake." Plus, my drummer, Steve told me about it, so it must be true! Regardless, this is one of the strangest and most disgusting way to get a cheap high! If we're being honest here, I'm a little curious! I think I would try it just to see if it actually works. Does anyone have any bed bugs? Can you imagine? Quick! Call my dealer and get me a quarter of the bed bugs! No way!
