Dude, almost no one does nutmeg, specifically because it's painful. I have no problem with drug abusers, other than that I hope they die, but this is a bad choice.

Have you done it before or going by hearsay?

I have, and they're mixed negative and positive.  The first one that comes up is negative.

I could just stick with alcohol, but you don't really get 'high' from it, just zone out.

If Boss Tweed wishes to use nutmeg, then by all means, he should be able to do so. If he faces painful consequences, then he will have no-one to blame but himself. And if he obtains pleasure, then all is well!

What does that have to do with anything?

Emsworth is just guarding Boss Tweed's right to shove stuff up his nose.  It's the American way.

Well, I'm eventually going to try it.  This thread has piqued my interest.

Good Luck.  But I'm telling you it is a bad idea.  It reminds me of Jipson weed (I assume you know what I'm talking about being from the north east).  I'd call it more of a poison than a drug I'd take for fun.  I take it you're one of those people who "has to try everything once."  I wouldn't plan on doing it before having to do ANYTHING.  I'd say there is a 50% chance you'll be sick.

It only takes a couple spoonfulls (not teaspoons, like regular spoons as much as you can scoop). I tried it but probably in too low of an amount, so the effects were mild.

The main problem with nutmeg is that it is NASTY with a capital "N." Really grainy texture and bad taste. I had the brilliant idea of mixing it in peanut butter which, surprise, results in a sort of muddy sand that attacks your mouth like shards of glass (well that's what it feels like). Friends of mine just ate it straight or mixed it in a smoothie.

Maybe it depends on the nutmeg, I dunno. I used cheap dining hall crap (while in the dining hall). I even wrote a speech on the topic for public speaking class, which was well received by the way. I don't recall the science too well but it's not especially dangerous to consume in sufficient amounts (to get f'ed up)-- so long as you don't do it very often.

Perhaps it would be interesting in combination with other substances, I dunno. But I agree that just blazing over and over is preferable. Note that nutmeg is basically free, which really is the only thing that makes it worth considering at all.

Tip - Never make a poll where Everett can vote for both "All Of The Above" and "None Of The Above"; the temptation to select both is similar to the temptation to raid a large jar of chocolate chip cookies.
Are you an obese?








Sorry. Had to be done.

Only psychadelic mushrooms, marijuana, cocaine, LSD, roofies, and nutmeg.

MDMA, NOTA, and Tobacco suck.

All of those should be legal, and anyone who voted otherwise is a freedom-hating prude.

A fat friend of mine once drank three pots of coffee into which he loaded huge amounts of nutmeg.  We had to take him to the hospital with a panic attack in the middle of the night!  Our three female roomates were petting him on the head and fawning over him, and his heartrate went down.. after a while they took a break and I went in and started making fun of him - and got to watch his heartrate go up on the moniter - now that was cool.

Yeah I agree. Don't do it. Visit the almighty resource on such matters: erowid.org. Then reconsider. I've never done it.....never will. It definately isn't a fun drug.

All should be legal for those aged 18 or more.
