Loss of language comprehension...

Hey shroomerites,
Ive taken mushrooms three times before, and the two times that I have taken an 8th, ive just relaxed in my room and watched movies with a couple of friends and generally had a good time. But, both times, I've lost the ability to comprehend language in the movie itself, but not from other people speaking. I know it sounds weird, but I could have sworn that he turned it on spanish or something, but assured me that it was in english the entire time.
Does anybody else get similar experiences from movies or music?

Yeah this has happened to me too. I made tea with about a quarter of homegrown mushrooms and as I was coming up I was playing a video game with a lot of dialouge. It all sounded like jibberish. Later on the trip took a turn for the worse and I was trying to find ways to calm myself down, so I turned on the TV. Of course I couldn't read the guide to pick a channel, so it stayed on Disney channel with an episode of the Little mermaid. It was the same thing here, I couldn't understand a thing they said because it was like they were speaking in reverse as well as super fast. This convinced me that I had become mentally retarded and would never be the same again. Pretty weird.

it is nice to go back to the roots before language, to see it for what it is.

Then you should dose and watch Pingu on PBS Sprouts to see if you can understand what they are saying.

I've had that happen with music and with people who were talking to me while on shrooms. When it happened with the music though, everyone was hearing it as jibberish. And yes, backwards and super fast is a good description of how it sounds.

weird. for me mushrooms causes a total loss in comprehensions of pretty much all aspects of reality.
oddly though at times in high school i would periodically not be able to understand any speaking at all. it was that loss of comprehension of English that spurred me to experiment with psychedelic drugs.
