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.

One way to weed the stupid people out of the gene pool, hopefully before they reproduce.

Thank god for telling me this. I guessed the word meant cream cheese

. I can just see the journalist looking up on google what that means.

Probably addicts that need a fix, like kids sniffing paint that ends up causing severe nerve damage or death.

I assume out tax dollars pay for all the high medical cost.

No doubt.

Why would this become popular anywhere? Isn't there enough heroin, meth, coke, and other garbage to go around?

Not much of an article to gauge anything on. No facts, just what one Dr. has stated. How much, for how long, how well prepared, etc. are not even discussed. The drug could not even be the cause for all one can gather. Nice scary title though.

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".
