I dont know about salvia being "sooooooo good"! Its really wierd and fucked up, that is for sure. but I've never talked to anyone who found salvia to be overly pleasent.
I dont think I'll ever try salvia again, unless for some strange reason I feel like having my brain squashed by a 30 foot giant again.

Perhaps it is just bad photos, BUT that does not look anything like salvia to me.

Almost looks like poison ivy, but the pics aren't the best.

actually this post was a joke. i know its poison ivy. i am immune to it. i can rub it all over my body and not experience symptoms. i was just seeing if anyone else would know i keep it as a curiosity and warn company about touching it. it certainly can hold alot of malicious potential if i ever happen to have any enimies i picked this specimine from a patch ive known of for years behind penhorn mall in dartmouth NS first time i found it there i warned fishermen in the nearby lake and some older kid (i was 11) said "theres no poison ivy in NS!" and got all mad and shit that i challanged him. so i said "ok fine, if youre so smart, take a handfull of the plant that i think looks like poison ivy and rub it on yourself." well he got really pissed off, i think these days he is probably a wife beater with anger management issues. but anyway. he said his grandfather was nearby and worked with lands and forests or something and would know. i ran ahead to point the plant out. when he caught up he diddnt even look at me, he just grabbed the plant, kept on going muttered in anger "ill show you" like he was holding back rage. i was way behind him and yelled ahead "dont forget to rub some on your arms like we agreed, or are you chicken?"
when i caught up to him he was on the bridge with an old man.
his head was all drooped down and i heard the man say "i bet you wont do that again"
the handfull of plant was in the stream and the boy was rubbing his hands off on his pants (bad idea)
he muttered "yes it was" as i passed by,
i went over it in my head and laughed for days about it. i should have warned him not to touch himself to take a whiz.
oh well. im sure theres a moral to the story comparable to a chinese fable about a monkey and an ox.
i now have this plant to tell the tale over, its the exact same plant from 11 years ago when this event happened. they live a long time. ive heard of specimines with vines as thick as my arm.

What you got there is not salvia. It looks like poison ivy or oak. You better get yourself a real good guide to plants and learn.

umm i suppose that's probably it. I doubt researchers have delved into isolating the gene(s) responsible for some people being allergic to uruschiol (poison ivy, sumac, and the like active constituent causing the dermatitis) or not.
I'd say get some gloves and get a test patch of skin on your forearm and rub a tiny bit on one isolated area on the arm and wait, don't touch it or spread the uruschiol anywhere else. After maybe an hour, wash the area VERY good as uruschiol lingers for a while and is hard to remove from clothes and stuff.
Side note: poison ivy being spread through scratching and the opening of the rash sores is an old wives tale. Poison ivy dermatitis is an allergic response to the chemical. It's not a disease that can be spread. If you've washed your hands very well and your clothes skin and body then the open sores or contact with the sores will not spread the rash further on your body or to others. It's simply an old-wive's tale.
