I'd logically assume it would be "acided".

Not that I consider myself to be retarded, but I've often wondered what exactly based means. Like, debased instincts? Baser or basic instincts? I'm new here.

it comes from the phrase "based in reality" which is the popular illusion amongst some

That actually makes sense, and is the first time I've heard someone make it make logical sense like that yet! You're my hero, juicy!

But I still think that it refers to strongly alkaline bases as opposed to acids.
