It's just weird.

I guess it beats chewing up worms or looking for carrion, or stuffing pollen into storage sacks on my legs to turn into honey later on.

"If you don't mind, I'm going to go into that room over there, turn off the lights, lose all voluntary control over my body, and hallucinate vividly for the next six to eight hours."
