Experimenting with drugs has been popular for a long time, with it only increasing in both quantity and popularity. In fact, it has got to the point where you're stuck in a bean bag chair with a cockatoo telling you aliens exist.
For those of us who aren't into the narcotic-fuelled lifestyle, there are certain people who can paint a really vivid image of what it's like to be truly off your tits, and then of course there's the internet.
A simple search will throw up things like an artist painting different pictures while on different drugs and a man chasing imaginary sheep on magic mushrooms, all outlining the range of effects certain drugs can have.

Now, someone has created a video, from a POV perspective, to show what it's like to trip on LSD. Having never tried the drug, I can't really comment on whether it's accurate or not. But it certainly makes it look like an intriguing experience.
I'm guessing hallucinating about someone wearing a Guy Fawkes mask, or an Anonymous mask, isn't a certainty for anyone who takes LSD. Good riddance, because pretentious arseholes is the last thing you need while you're tripping.

Looking at these effects, it's easy to see why Lennon and McCartney started blabbering on about Crabalocker fishwives, pornographic priestess, tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
On the other hand, though, the likes of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were both reportedly partial to a bit of LSD, so maybe it triggers the genius inside of us all. That being said, there's bound to be a huge percentage of people that take a tab and sit around chatting out of their arses, saying: "Yeah, that's it, we need a remote. Not just any remote, one that can turn off the sky. And turn up the volume on Doritos and dip. Maybe even mute a mirror."
