> A thumbprint is a method of consuming a massive amount of lsd, where a massive (relatively, compared to a blotter dose) amount of lsd crystals are made into a small pile, pressed on with a thumb, and then the thumb into the mouth.

The ROA is still oral.

Unless it was (literal) 'needlepoint' LSD... maybe he stabbed himself with a shard? /s

Sure, but the accounts of thumbprinting I've read made it seem like there is a strong sensation almost immediately after touching it. I also know people who have described a contact high from laying sheets of LSD. Hmm... I could be wrong though.

That's not what "contact high" means. Contact high is a high feeling reported by people who have been in contact—as in in proximity, not physical contact—with other high people.

That is most probably not true at all. Any stuff put on rather thick skin of our fingers (especially solid crystals, unlike some liquid) would take considerable amount of time to get into bloodstream and finally brain. Look at how long does it take for a space cake to kick in, and it goes to places specifically designed to dissolve & absorb material.

Don't believe all written on internet (says internet comment :))
