This illustrated blotter acid, however, is ingested the usual way: the tab is chewed, then swallowed.īlurred photocopies of this specious warning against innocent children's being lured into a life of drug use via rub-on LSD-laced tattoos have been circulated everywhere. Sometimes when the drug is manufactured by impregnating sheets of blotter paper with dots of liquid LSD, the paper is first printed with cartoon characters. The one bit of the story with anything genuine to it at all is the association between cartoon characters and LSD. Not surprisingly, no verified case of LSD-laced transfer tattoos has ever surfaced. Even if strychnine were present in LSD (for whatever reason), introducing your customers to the world of drugs by giving them samples laced with enough poison to kill them is an extremely poor way of generating repeat business.
This "warning" also includes a legend within a legend: the notion that strychnine is present in LSD, either because it's a byproduct of the synthesis process, or because it's used to adulterate or "cut" the drug. A dealer looking to recruit new customers would do better to distribute a more addictive drug than LSD, handing out LSD-soaked candy would work far more effectively than passing around LSD-impregnated papers which require the drug to be absorbed through the skin, and elementary school kids are not known for having large incomes to spend on drugs. This bit of scarelore dates to at least the late 1970s, and it still makes little logical sense.
