Nitrous Mafia

[azaghal1981]

Gross.

Both the dealers and the hippies.

And the 'music'.

All gross.

[atomicfront]

you have never done a nitrous baloon?  Pretty harmless.  Effect lasts about five minutes.  Really unless I could strap a tank to my back I don't see the point.

[azaghal1981]

No. But I was referring more to the people who surround it being gross than anything else. But yeah it does sound kind of pointless unless you are getting some serious dental work done.

[bekessler]

Because the potential harm to your body is directly related to the duration of the high...

Not really a new thing.  A crew from Philly has been peddling N2O at Merriweather for at least 15 years. 

They used to sell it at Eagles games as well.

watch someone's eyes roll back into their head, drop to the ground and start convulsing right in front of you, and then tell me it's harmless.

also they pee themselves 

[notme]

the only problem is that the n2o sold at show is industrial grade, not  pharmaceutical  grade.  the industrial stuff contains alot of stuff that is not good for you.  then again, most illegal drugs contain stuff that is not good for you.

[K8teebug]

That story is so 1995.

I'd call that getting your money's worth

agreed. i've never done it and am a better person because of it.  I see people doing it - all it does is make them stupid.

unlike drinking at the club until you can't see straight . . . getting in your car and killing a whole family.  if you don't like a drug then don't do it, and shut the fuck up about it.

when did anyone say that drinking anywhere until you can't see straight and driving is harmless?

if you like a drug, do it in the comfort of your own home.

when someone's selfish behavior starts to impact my world is precisely when i begin to have a problem with it.  that applies to drink, drug, stupidity, whatever.

[StoneTheCrow]

Agreed.  Though it's pretty hard to keep my stupidity to myself.

So now I know why the Columbia Mall parking lot was so full of balloons after the Phish weekend.
