Mythbusters: Urban psychedelic legends

Migrated topic.
It has been used as a bonding agent when making blotters if I'm not mistaken.
No, that's the myth precisely. It never was and there's no reason for it, it's very toxic and it's not like it's more readily available than other bonding agents.

Also no bonding agent is needed to lay blotter sheets AFAIK. Although I think the myth predates the use of blotter paper, but the other points still remain.

I heard this was just fear-mongering
It is. I don't think you will find any non second hand report. It has never showed up in analysis by any analysis service. You won't come across LSD with strychnine unless you add it yourself.
 
Strychnine can be used as a chiral resolving agent, so it may have been used in an attempt to help to favour the production of LSD over iso-LSD. (That would be the "bonding agent", perhaps - and people might use it simply because they happened to have some, for example if they had extracted some strychnos seeds for the fun of it.) It also has a medical history of use as a stimulant among convalescents. Some people even like it in small doses.

I'm just saying, there are in fact a couple of at least half-plausible uses for strychnine here.

The bit about its presence in peyote hair tufts, on the other hand, is total… cobblers.
 
Bananadine!

That's right. According to The Anarchist's Cookbook, by William Powell, if you peel the white innards off a banana peel, boil then dry it – when smoked, it will produce hallucinogenic effects....

Tried that one when I was a kid... somehow forgot that I left the pot of banana peels on the stove... when my dad got home from a weekend outside the city and saw it – he totally knew what I was doing. =D

I always talked with some friends about trying it but were too scared haha. We eventually found out online it was nonsense.
I had a printed PDF of the Anarchist Cookbook. Yeah, a high percentage of it is likely false and what remains is unreliable, but it was perfect to give a teenager the thrill of the forbidden, I'd say. At least if they don't try to do something that could give them the "thrill" of blowing up their house lol.
 
Jenkem

Piss then crap in a bottle, put a balloon over it, and leave it out in the hot, summer sun for a week to ferment... when the balloon's puffed up, you're ready to huff!
