Weird Internet Experiences Worth Trying When High

Posted on April 19, 2019 by resourcefulman

Although I haven’t gotten high in a very, very long time, I definitely remember the stupid adventures I had when I did it. It was back in college – that is, back in college – when all we had was Super Smash Bros. Melee, lava lamps and racquetball to have fun tasting different (terrible tasting) foods. Ah, the times are simpler.

These days, if I was going to get high, I would flop right in front of the computer. It is not because I am antisocial; you can do a lot of weird shit online when you’re high.

I wouldn’t say this is an exhaustive list of things to look out for when you’re high. Many of you who regularly participate in the green leaf probably have a folder full of interesting web bookmarks that make you feel like, completely out there, a person when you smoke weeds. Let me know about some of your favorites in the comments and I’ll cover them in a future article.

Otherwise, here’s what I would have pushed after hitting.

Electric sheep

This must-have screensaver gives you an ever-changing series of random animations. Even if you’re not high, you might think your computer is confusing. If I weren’t such a fan of the Apple Aerial splash screen (that is, a jailbroken for Windows ), I would have used it straight away.

Demoscene

If screensavers aren’t your thing, check out some of these incredibly coded creations – often accompanied by a whimsical musical beat – that pack tons of animation into a tiny file. (The corresponding subreddit is also a good resource for finding them.)

Do some experiments with liquid

I am not high and have been playing with this site for the last ten minutes. This is great.

Res Endless

Try giving this game a try when you’re high. Bonus points if you play virtual reality – and don’t get frustrated.

Thumper

If you want an experience that puts more emphasis on rhythm, music and sound, then try Thumper. Again, the visuals will definitely help improve your mood as long as they don’t make you nervous.

Bob Ross on Twitch

Happy trees. Do I need to say more? If the soothing sounds of Bob Ross’s 24/7 Twitch stream doesn’t do it for you, I’m not sure what else you need. Kick the devil out of this brush.

Planet Earth

This is your home. Well. This is everyone’s home. What better way to watch the Earth in real time?

My drunken kitchen

Now I am switching, but listen to me; Despite the fact that the host of “My Drunken Kitchen” is short, while she comes up with her sometimes terrible-looking creations, she is definitely not up to par. Perhaps it will inspire you to do your own culinary experiments before you start to taste horrible snacks.

Those old crooked intros

In the good old days, archives of illegally obtained applications and games usually came with an installer, jailbreak tool, or some other small executable file. These will include a little dodgy animation and song that bands will use on stage to pat themselves on the back for their releases. Although the animation is usually short, the music can be very catchy – and the perfect background noise for your fun-filled evening. Check out Flashtro , KeyGenMusic and WAB to find all the chiptunes you will ever need.

Make fractals

Ah, fractals – reminds me of a Jurassic Park novel. Enrich your wide-pupil group by creating (or playing ) endless streams of endless patterns. It’s like the world is building itself , dude.

Create your own music

If you prefer making music rather than looking at flashy images, check out Splice Sounds – a small sequencer you can use right in your browser – or the more minimalist Sampulator . There’s also Incredibox if you’re feeling stupid. And if you just want ambient noise with minimal effort, you can’t go wrong with the Binaural Beat Machine .
