Psycho Shroomerites

Ever meet someone 'in real life' who turned out to be a complete nutjob? Who turned out to be someone completely different then they portrayed online? Who totally freaked you out with thier psychotic behavior? I've come accross a few.
A met this one guy who loved E. He just sat in the corner for the duration of a 3 day gathering and ate pills. It was absolutly disgusting. It was like the part of him that made him a human being ceased to exist. His eyes were like giant glass marbles and his skin has this weird irridescence to it. He was like an alien robot in his own little world. It was estimated that he ate about 20+ pills over the course of the weekend and it just really freaked a lot of people out. The people that he came to the gathering with left him there because they didn't know how to deal with him.
Senate/Tenzor. Pure psycho, attention seeking, criminal behavior.
TripMeister... do I really need to elaborate? I've never met him, but wow. Just wow.
SilverSoul...what the deal with this guy? Most of the time he seems like a really thoughful, well thought out, intelligent kind of guy, but when I met him in real life he was really strange and awkward. But not just kind of strange and awkward... like, possibly brain damaged in serious need of psycological assessment. Like he shouldn't be travelling to gatherings independently...he should have been under the care of responsible adults. I don't know if it was due to irreponsible drug use, or what his deal was. I actually thought at the time that there was some kind of mental disturbance. (?)
What are some of your psycho shroomerite stories?

Never met any of these people in the real life. Who is tripmeister? What is that guy like?
I don't doubt some of these people are socially awkward, I don't think that makes them freaks of nature though.

It's kinda hard to judge people's character when they're on drugs, except for the fact that they can't handle themselves on drugs.
I haven't really been disappointed by any Shroomerites I've met. There have been a couple that I thought I would have a problem with that turned out to be great.

The Shroomerites I've met have been pretty cool. Mind you, I've only met a few in RL. No doubt there's going to be a few psychos on this forum.

Shroomism is about as crazy as it gets, I can't even imagine talking to that guy in real life

He's actually really quiet and introverted. He doesn't say any of the crazy shit you see on here, mainly because he doesn't talk much at all.

it's important to remember that everyone is a mirror to you, so judging others is actually judging a part of yourself

Shroomism is actually a super chill guy. He's really quiet and doesn't really say too much, but he's a lot of fun to have around.

I used to say that "i'v never met a shroomerite who i didn't like" Like everybody who i chilled with at gatherings was great. Now i got close to some of these people, and a lot of them i didn't get to spend a lot of time with, and later learned to dislike through the boards.
I think i might have rubbed some people the wrong way irl, just from being incredibly nervous.
SS7 gets a bad rap. He was a really nice guy, boistrous and outgoing. Some described this as trying to hard. At the gathering a LOT of people were pissed at him. I think he was fighting some social anxiety issues as well, except he was also ingesting huge quantities of psychadelics, and exctasy. I don't remember him having to be baby sat exactly, but he was making a lot of people uncomfortable by being too fucked up. Anyway, i liked the guy, and enjoyed spending time with him. but that was just at the one gathering. I'v heard stories about him at other gatherings needing to be babysat, taking a shit 4 feet from the main fire circle in plain view of everyone.

I'd say most of use are the introverted, quiet type. You know, the type that you are...that quiet guy (and in few cases, girl) that hangs out with that friend who knows other people and who doesn't say much when everybody else is around.

I am a long-standing shroomerite who has been to about 5 gatherings or so. I did meet some shroomerites who slightly rubbed me the wrong way but 99% were totally cool and I could chill with them at any time. No bullshit.

This is Silversoul. I normally don't respond to flaming, but this post came across to me as honest constructive criticism, so I figured I'd address it. I'm well aware of my eccentricities. I'm a major lightweight when it comes to drugs, and I have a rather severe case of ADHD. On top of that, I tend to get lost in my head a lot, and not really know how to relate to others. At the last AZ Gathering, I was in a really weird place mentally(I'm guessing the OP of this thread is Slothie). I've been working a lot on self-improvement lately, and feel like I've gotten out of that head space.
Also, I'd clear up something about me supposedly taking a shit 4 feet from the campfire. It was much further than that, and I went behind a tree where I thought I was safe. I didn't count on 40oz walking by from the other direction. If I had had time to think about it, I would've looked for a more remote, secure location, but hey, I had to go. There a bunch of things wrong with that last gathering, and I regret going to it.
Anyway, I don't blame you for being creeped out by me. I creep myself out sometimes.

Hey Silver, this is MOTH. I'm tripping on acid right now and just ruminating over all the wonderfully, crazy people on the Shroomery. Just so you know, I enjoy you and have often thought of the occasion we had at NE 05 to hang out and talk, at the hotel room and later at the campsite. That was years ago, and I'm sure we've both much changed, but weird is okay by me.
I admire watching you "grow" and shift and change over the years via the web. It seems like you are interested in self-improvment and that's awesome. I fucking love it. I hear stories of "taking shit by campfire while tripping balls," and I think: "so what???" I wasn't there but shit happens and I don't think that's a big deal.
The only Shroomerite I've had issues with on an emotional and spiritual level is the one that I saw kill himself. I frown on doing that at gatherings. Taking a shit too close to the campfire just pales in comparison. Like I said: big fucking deal. It's almost laughable to me. Shit happens! If everyone makes it out alive, then it's a good gathering, rumors about "OOOooo...someone went potty a bit too close to the campfire while tripping on lots of drugs and made people feel weird," just seem stupid and petty.
Get over it people! Obviously I was not present at that event but it seems like it was a good time.
Anyway, this could become a ramble, but yeah, overall I've always enjoyed being around Shroomerites, the crazier the better.
