Most of the phenethylamines are stimulants. What could possibly be in the separate stimulant row other than caffeine and nicotine? posted by solipsophistocracy at 7:28 AM on May 21, 2009

This is cool BUT ...why is everyone all over the world suddently doing Hunter S. Thompson stuff?
I'm having a Fear and Loathing-themed event so I buy a bottle of wild turkey and say to the cashier "It's for a Hunter S. Thompson Party" and then he says "Oh really? I met him a while ago. He signed my copy of Fear and Loathing by shooting a hole in it." Then someone posts the Hunter Inspiration Posters and Where The Buffalo Roam is being screened and suddenly wtf, hunter is everywhere.

I read that headline and thought, "Sweet! This will be an awesome gift for my friend Greg, as he loves A) Hunter S. Thompson and B) board games." Then I clicked through and realized it's an art piece that costs $5500, and my hopes were dashed.

As your attorney I advise you to quit stalling an take your damn turn!
(Possibly the coolest thing about Fear and Loathing is that I read my Boss' copy while things incubated at work.) posted by Kid Charlemagne at 8:12 AM on May 21, 2009
I would so own this if I had the money available, and I'm not even into drugs or a gigantic Hunter fan. The concept and packaging are fantastic. posted by inthe80s at 8:18 AM on May 21, 2009

Once you get locked into a serious board game-collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. posted by adipocere at 8:36 AM on May 21, 2009 [12 favorites]
