Games That Jonathan and Seth Play

Drug Use

53:59 – Dark Side of the Rainbow is when you start with two hits of acid on your tongue, then start the Dark Side of the Moon album and The Wizard of Oz at the same time. Seth did something similar and got all emotional throughout it. He wonders how the combination ever started. He says it’s even more epic to combine the movie Serendipity with Smashmouth’s Astro Lounge album and four hits of acid. … Another Brick in the Wall-E is when you combine Pink Floyd’s The Wall and the movie Wall-E. When you see the Walt Disney logo appear under the castle as the movie cues up press play on your iPod.

UYD Stories

14:35 – Jah had a root canal and says he’s still dealing with it a bit physically. He’s had a septic tooth in his rear molar since before he left for Europe. By the time he got back the tooth had died and he didn’t have to worry about it anymore, but it started getting so bad that he had to get it taken care of. In that tooth the dentist did half of a root canal, drilling into three different pockets and pulling out a back nerve. He has to go back in for the rest of it on Monday. He had a lubret piercing when he was 18 years old with a fishtail back, where the metal was resting against his gum and he bore a hole through his gum. That requires them taking a piece from the roof of his mouth out and grafting it into that area. At the back of the other side of his mouth, there’s an 11mm-deep pocket where his wisdom tooth was taken out. It’s become a hole in his jaw that bacteria and food particles have gotten into and begun to rot his jawbone out. They cut through his gum into his jaw and used a cadaver bone to fuse onto his jawbone. He did all that and had a full cleaning so he’s good to go. Jah maintains this is the worst part of the body and it should be replaced with metal 150-year teeth when you hit puberty.
