Can't believe people would be stupid enough to use it!

But they will sadly.

And why does this stuff even become popular? I don't get it. Is it cool to be an idiot or something?

eddie · 10-10-13, 12:05 PM

I don't have an answer for that!

Yikes.

That's one way to reduce the number of addicts.

Protip: Any "recreational pharmaceutical" that is mixed with gasoline or paint thinner probably should not be introduced into the body.

desertstriker · 10-10-13, 12:47 PM

WHY would anybody consider using something like that?

Platapus · 10-10-13, 12:54 PM

Why do people take little paper tubes filled with vegetation, set one end on fire and inhale the smoke?

some people do dumb stuff.

Always have, always will.

This is a terrible drug. But the number of idiots in Chicago will be less. Good that you do not have "Natrium oxybutyricum" aka "Butirat".

I think you mean Sodium Oxybutyricum that is a schedule 1 drug in the US.The "date rape drug" it is a depressant so combing it with alcohol puts someone in a complete stupor
it is used more commonly as a drug by loser men(who slip it into drinks) to rape women by being able to take them away do to their completely drunken/drugged state where they are able to have their way with them.
Yeah we have that here is the US sadly.

EDIT: you do mean sodium natrium another name for sodium is no longer used in English.

It is also popular to use animal tranquilizers as a date rape drug.

The most problematic drug in the US though is Methamphetamine.Nasty stuff that but very addictive and it can last for days compared to other strong drugs like Crack which only last a few minutes.
Another very popular drug in the US are synthetic opiates which people gain by going to a "pill mill" which is a pharmacy where they "legally" prescribe the pills or they just steal them form homes.

In Florida which had some of the most relaxed prescription laws in the US they passed a law that cracks down on "pill mills" which is a doctors office that has an attached dispensary.After this restriction the next year applications for stand alone pharmacies which must be approved by the FDA spiked by 500% in Florida.

It in no way makes me proud to say this by America loves drugs.If you are a US citizen and you do not use you are an ever increasing minority.

well its better than stealing life saving drugs for a fix I guess:

How depressing.

I kind of think that the modern culture in psychology has encouraged people to believe there is a pill for every problem. You know, "better living through chemistry".

In the United States, are there school aged girls who are not taking some sort of drug? Not from what I observed from being around the kid's friends.

It seems like everyone is on some sort of prescription. Don't know about boys (did not observe them) but I fear that it is probably the same.

Once, we overheard the kid bragging to her friends about how many prescriptions she had and her friends were doing the same right back.

Old days: My brother can beat up your brother!
These days: Oh I used to be on drug xxx, but my doctor now have me on YYY!

(facepalm)
