The term "frying"

How many of you call tripping "frying". I personally think that it gives a terrible image as it makes it sound unhealthy and disturbing.
Do you think its wrong to call it this, and how many of you actually use this term?

I think that is where the myth that I have herd "Mushrooms overheat your brain causing you to trip" came from.
I personally hate the term. I just say "trip"

Frying is more a term used when tripping on LSD anyways. I know all the times I've taken it, I definitely felt "fried" afterwards.

I hate when people say that because people who have no idea how it works actually make the assumption that it is somehow bad for your brain

Thats the term everyone uses down here. It does have a bad conotation(?).
This kid was talking shit about acid because it's called "frying" when you're on it... I just thought he was a dumbass but everyone laughed approvingly, they do think it's a bad thing..

I love the afterglow from acid. I don't feel drained, I feel fueled.
Yeah I wouldn't say frying to someone unless I knew they wouldn't make assumptions about the term. I like how it sounds but an average person would think it definitely sounds very unhealthy (image of brain sizzling on a frying pan with some eggs on the side).

I think both can be taken equally derogatory. We say trippin round here though and don't mean nuthin bad by it. 
Then again... Sometimes we do.

You guys are way overreacting. Frying is just a term. When you tell someone you got stoned, nobody thinks you mean you got rocks thrown at you.
Besides, "fry" seems like a very natural word for some of the sensations that come with tripping. When I first started shrooming I often felt like my brain was on fire, or sizzling away, or something. I remember mentioning that I was completely "fried" without even knowing that was actually a common term for tripping.
I'm beginning to honestly not care if stupid people think psychedelics are bad for you. It's better than if psychedelics were legal and stupid people everywhere were using them.

I like the term, but English isn't my native language so I never get to use it.

very true i don't feel fried after using mushrooms, but i DO feel pretty fried after using lsd my brain feels exhausted and overwrought, which is partly due to the character of its effects and party due to the 8-12 hour trip it gives you i usually can't form clear sentences after the comedown also, during the lsd trip, i think a LOT after that, my brain can't think anymore, because it thought so much during the trip excuse my bad english, but i guess, you all get what i'm talking about

i would generally say my brain is fried after too much studying ^^ when you look at something and even if usually you'd consider it a simple thing, but suddenly you can't make any sense out of it.
I do feel fried on acid if i take it pretty late 10/11 and i don't get any sleep until like midday the next day.

The word frying seems so bad. A few people use it here but usually talking about lsd. Tripping is my word of choice.

At my old high school, we had an elaborate code system that we thought would fool our authority figures. Drugs of any type were called "chicken". How you "prepared" your "chicken" told people what you had. Here's how it went down:
if you had it "baked", you were smoking some weed if you had it "fried" you were dropping acid if you had it "grilled" you were shrooming
We didn't really have codes for other drugs. Psychedelics were very popular, though near the end it seems that meth took over. I don't know what kind of "chicken" that was - maybe "toothless"? We never had a code word for that *one time* that DMT went around. Nor did I get to have *any* of it.
These days I just tell people I'm "expanding my mind" or taking an "indoors vacation". Or I just tell them I'm gonna go trip balls.

I guess it brings up that old anti drug commercial with the frying pan. What the hell did that guy even mean? 'This is your brain on drugs.' Drugs will heat my brain so the matter solidifies and becomes edible? What drugs are you even talking about?
