Guilty as charged (at least sometimes). You gotta cut philo-nerds a little slack, though. Some stuff is discussed just for fun, and when people do it they don't take themselves too seriously.

I've started vaping it for my MS. I have to say though, it has done absolute wonders for my ideas in AI. I've had some real inspiration whilst high that actually works well in practice when I come to implement it the next day.

I think I have also figured out how it actually has the effects that it does, which is really interesting.
