1:Last year I sold about $100 worth of those little scented incense rocks that some churches use during processions. You know, when the robed dude comes out with a clangy metal thing with the rocks burning in it.

I sold them to some rave-loving seniors when EDM/dubstep was super popular, and told them it was MDMA. They put it on their lips and told me they loved the quick, brief, and intense euphoria.

2: One of the first few times I was going to smoke pot, my friend vaguely knew a guy who had some so we called him up to meet up. He gave us a baggie of tobacco and oregano.

A year later, about a month ago, he messaged me desperately looking for anyone who might have some LSD. I cut out 3 squares of paper, dipped them in fruit punch Snapple and gave it to him for $50.

3: Right now I'm trying to sell my obscene stack of old CD's that my parents have, and the FYE.com selling system is robbing me of even the best of my collection for pennies. Fuck you, a Bill Evans CD isn't worth just 10 cents. It's priceless bitch.
