Seriously, you brought up ACiD which reminds me of a story. Once I was "experimenting" with the drug by the same name and was fsck'n around with the computer. I found a chat (called #acid) which had a few of their members in there discussing some design stuff. Well, being fsck'd up I decided to mess with them because I didn't understand at the time that they didn't have anything to do with the drug scene.

One person responded: "My face isa melting!"

I couldn't stop laughing for at least an hour.
