So he gets blackout drunk and drives to Waffle House.

Occam's Razor for sure.

Knowing FEMAs relationship with the business, this should be a shock to noone.

That's just fancy talk for an addiction to dissassociative drugs like ketamine in my opinion.

I've tripped on dissociatives a bunch and never teleported anywhere

Clearly you're not trying hard enough

I did have an out of body experience, though, which was interesting

Did your astral form go to Waffle House?

No, I was just watching myself from the ceiling.

Which drugs did you take ? And what are Republican fundraisers like ?

village604@adultswim.fan · 2 pts · 150d

DXM, also known as robotripping. The out of body experience was fun, but memory was never an issue in the 50+ times I did it. And I did obscene amounts.

And I'd rather die than go to a Republican fundraiser

My guess is he just blacked out from drinking.

I've been wondering how I got where I was on weed or alcohol though.

village604@adultswim.fan · 2 pts · 150d

For sure. I'm betting it was just an alcohol blackout, because memory recall was always crystal clear after a trip.

When you're off your head on some narcotic it probably does feel like you've been teleported

Mirshe@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 149d

Narcotic? Nah, this is good old fashioned blackout drunk. My roommate at college was a heavy drinker and frequently found himself 4+ hours across the state on a Monday, with no recollection of how he got there.
