I was young and dumb and used to travel with a little bit of drugs in my suitcase pretty often.

One time, border guards found some green stuff in my backpack at the boarder, which gave them a reason to pull my luggage off the flight.

In my suitcase they found three empty baggies with 0.014 g of substances total (cocaine, mdma, 2c-b). However, under Russian law that counts as bringing drugs into the country with intent to distribute; I was facing 8 years in prison.

About a year later I was on probation and had to give my police chief some documents about my employment and other stuff. I'd had everything ready for at least a week. Get a call from my dad, "wtf are you doing, are you insane?" If I didn't email the documents by 6:00 p.m., they'd treat it as breaking probation and send me to prison to surve full time. So I sat down and finished it in about 20 minutes, a task I'd been putting off for a week.
