Teehee!
The bad apples always ruin it for the rest. By the way what's so bad about it feeling "good"? I see that as a gift in itself, 'knowing' God feels good too and so wouldn't we want to wish it on everyone? God wants us to be happy too so is it selfish or selfless? I would never have spoken tongues if I hadn't come to know God, it doesn't seem like something I would ever think of before.
I'd rather see a bunch of kids speaking tongues everyday at 4:20 than getting high, since it feels so good and all.
Is there a verse in the Bible that says, "I wish everyone spoke in tongues cause it feels so good to me."?

There is such a thing as sound therapy that gives people a high that could be related to a spiritual experience (go search YouTube!). That doesn't mean that all sounds we make are biblical tongues and, yes, God can understand any sound we make because He lives in us as Christians so we don't even need to make a sound to pray.
