Comic actor Jack Black dishes on his high school drug abuse and his new film Tropic Thunder in the August edition of Blender.

Did anything good come of trying the drugs?
I don’t think so, but I had a lot of fun when I did the acid, ­laughing harder than I ever had, seeing the absurdity in life in a way that I’d never really considered. I was whole for the first time ever, like, The whole universe makes sense. But then later that night I couldn’t go to bed, and I wanted it to be over. It wasn’t funny anymore, the universe no longer made sense, and I was stuck in this prison in my brain for, like, six hours. I only had, like, one hour of absolute bliss. So the pain outweighed the glory, and I never wanted to do it since. Maybe the experimentation prevented later abuse, because I did not party nearly as hard as the other kids in high school and college.
