This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If I was making a cocktail for a friend, and, eyeballing the ratios, ended up putting too little vodka in it, would that still be tampering?

If you can't tell the difference between messing up a cocktail mix and intentionally tampering with a drink or drug formula I don't know what to tell ya man.

Noone is talking about medication.

Everyone is talking about reducing the active ingredient in a serving of a recreational psychotropic drug by serving more of the (not "a", but "the") carrier dilute. If Anon's GF doesn't get the nic she needs, she'll take more puffs. If you don't get the buzz you want, you'll ask for another cocktail.

Y'all can ride on the technical definition of "tampering" but a) the cocktail mix not being as expected (e.g. "as done last time round") would amount to the same, "Hey this Mojito is practically virgin!" and b) there's a rather huge difference between diluting or strengthening the active ingredient and c) on a whole another escalation scale, adding something that's not supposed to be in the serving at all. Like, dunno, CBD in a Bloody Mary. Yet another magnitude: Vitamin E acetate in vape juice (don't do that that's where the popcorn lung cases came from).

Can you make those distinctions in your mind or is the concept of "tampering" mushing it all together?

Your friend knew you were mixing it though

If you were to go around a party pouring water in everybody's drinks when they aren't looking, I would consider that tampering, yes.

If I were to hand everyone shots of pure tap water when they're expecting vodka, would that be tampering?

Note if you say "no" then you're literally no fun at parties. Zero. Nilch. Less actually, you're negative fun.
