"The Family" and prints

So i was with a group of mates and my buddy was showing off some cartoony print shit and he had said it was weird and only lasted like 6 hours. I happen to make the comment that i wouldnt take it i still have a stash of some wonderful WoW that i picked up at a fest.
Well my other buddy chimes in with a comment like "thats why that shit is on print cuz its bunk shit, you know"The Family" wouldnt let anyone lay shit on WoW unless they are tried and true OG's wih the good stuff" He said something to that extent... Anyone else ever find this distinction to be true or would the family lay on prints too?

I used to lay LSD on WoW, never heard of or personally met anybody claiming to be "Grateful Dead Family" or any of that nonsense. And I've met hundreds of people who take LSD.
I personally don't think it's even hypothetically possible that "Family" is out there keeping anybody from laying LSD on white watercolor paper except for their own people. That's not really an enforceable rule when you think about the fact that you can get white watercolor paper at any craft store anywhere in the world.

Haha wow, a big reason people lay on white is because you can get it basically anywhere.
There's a lot of 'family' needlepoint and fluff circulating on the west coast on various prints, who knows who actually laid it though and are actually 'family'. Whatever that really means.

I really doubt there is a defined 'family.' If you start with 5 people considered 'family' and then they incorporate others and over time consider them 'family' you have to think about everyone else that goes down that line and how it would work out logistically; in short it doesn't. Those 5 people sell crystal lets say, they sell crystal to the people one degree down, you can say they're family too for all intents are purposes. So if 1 degree of separation sells to someone else, they may be best buds, thus 'family,' they're dealing 'family fluff' you can say, but does that may this person is 'family' with the original 5? Even if the original 5 don't even know who this person is, don't even know their name much less have met them? When you go to a music festival just about everyone becomes 'family,' it's a relative and arbitrary distinction. We're all family.

When I hear family I take it with the same grain of salt that I take it when people mention double dipped sheets, double stacked rolls, any crystal names (fluff, needlepoint, etc), etc. It's not that it's impossible for all of those bullshit sales lines, it's just that it's so ridiculous that it's not even worth taking into consideration. The fact is, no matter where it came from, some random dude laid that sheet with some crystal. By the time it gets to the bottom, the chances of anyone knowing where it came from or who did the synth are very low. I don't even think many of these people are lying so much as they've been lied to or taken advantage of. It's like a game of telephone where you potentially have to trust the end result with your life. Get a test kit, start small, and ignore the sales pitches. This has served me very well.

I never understood the double dipping and double stacking, if you put any thought into that at all it makes no sense. If you dip a sheet of acid in a solution twice it will absorb just as much as if you dipped it once. Hell, if you dipped it 20 times it will still absorb the same amount. If you dip it, dry it, then dip it again you'll absorb a negligible amount more only because your solution is slightly more concentrated. If someone wants to make their hits a certain strength then they make their dipping solution the appropriate concentration, likewise with rolls you're just going to put more mdma per press, you're not going to 'double stack' them, w/e the fuck that even means. Have you ever noticed how 'double stacks' are the same exact size as 'single stacks?' It's cause it's bullshit and doesn't even mean anything haha.
