Why do they go to the trouble of stealing from a hospital when they could go to a supermarket, by a whipped cream cracker and a box of chargers? It's more expensive to the user but significantly less illegal and more user friendly than a giant canister of gas.

nos is the most retarded drug

[QUOTE=geogzm;51791404]nos is the most retarded drug[/QUOTE] Have you talked to nos users? They're all braindead. I remember I was at a house party talking to some guy bragging that he'd take like 50 chargers in a night... He hadn't even started huffing his tard gas and he already sounded lobotomized.

I swear when I was a kid nangs was known as like the pussy drug, for cunts that didn't or couldn't get into like chuff or pills n caps and shit. I guess like all those little 12 year old rats that were hell into it are all grown up now.

Those little canisters are single use, or close to it. It's cheaper by at least an order of magnitude to buy the big tanks through a black market, even with a sizeable markup. It's also relatively safe legality wise. Without proof that they are medical, or stolen, sticking a criminal receiving charge is difficult. Plus, disposing of a single big canister is pretty simple. They're at ludicrously high pressure compared to the small ones, so the total mass of waste to get rid of is insignificant because the gas physically occupies no space. You can honestly just throw a big can into a lake once or twice a month. It's never going to be traced back to you.

[QUOTE=geogzm;51793323]it's the worst drug for risk to reward ratio other than shit like heroin/krok[/QUOTE] Honestly IDK how someone can have a 5 minute conversation with a heavy NOS user and then go "hmm this is a substance I would like to put in to my body". I don't do drugs in general but I can see why someone would want to smoke pot or something, right? Like seriously the high is partly fucking hypoxia.

Lets be fair most people who get into those really, really hard drugs are pretty fucking braindead before they start taking said drugs alternatively they are very reckless and don't think that they'll do it enough to suffer side effects it. This I can understand and sympathize with at least. But at the same time at least think on it god damn.

Inhalation in itself is completely stupid. I know a few guys from my high school who would do "whip its;" It's where you take a can of Whipit and put the nose in your mouth and spray it upwards, so you're just getting the nitrous from the can. It's really stupid for a lot of reasons. One of the biggest reasons is that if some one were to just straight up grab a can from the fridge while it was still cold, they could risk getting serious frostbite from the inside. I've seen documentaries where they go into detail about how your body reacts to this scenario and boy is it not pretty. It's addictive, it kills brain cells, and you only risk probably killing yourself. And if I have to be completely honest, I know first hand how much of a shit high this is. All it does is make you completely numb all over, which gives you this light tingling sensation. This goes on for 20 seconds and you're too distracted by the massive tunnel vision you're getting to really appreciate it, which is what fuels people to take a second hit. When I went to take a second hit, I ended up just stabbing my bottom lip with the nose. I looked at my bloody lip in the mirror and immediately felt fucking stupid. Don't ever bother with nitrous. It is complete and utter poison.

Have known a few people who play games and huff copious amounts of nos every week. They gradually got worse and worse to the point that they were slurring words and had insanely slow reaction times even when they hadn't had any of it. It's a very easy way to make yourself extremely slow and extremely stupid at all times.

[QUOTE=Cushie;51794773]They gradually got worse and worse to the point that they were slurring words and had insanely slow reaction times even when they hadn't had any of it.[/QUOTE] This reminded me of a weird guy I ran into at some family festival I got invited to because I was friends of friends a couple years ago. Anyways, he was a [i]heavy[/i] nox user. He probably did some other stuff too, but he was allegedly taking at least 5 double hits of nox a day. His reactions were so utterly fucked that he'd crashed his car something like 6 or 7 times in the previous year. I met him after he'd just lost his license, which is an accomplishment if you aren't actively driving drunk or high. Even diabetics that refuse to take their meds don't get their license pulled all that often, so he had to be [i]seriously[/i] messed up for that to happen. Every interaction I had with him over an entire evening was like watching this. [img]http://i.imgur.com/OAaRV.gif[/img] It was actually funny. Depressing, in a way, but still funny. He got a little drunk (if a 250 pound person drinking 3 beers over 2 hours can be considered drunk), and was trying to grab another beer off a table. Someone across from him kept moving it side to side when he went to grab it. He probably spent upwards of 5 minutes staring intently at the bottle for 5-10 seconds trying to calculate where it was, then missing it when it moved. It's like he had input lag. The creepy part was that he gave no apparent signs of being frustrated. It's like he didn't have enough of a brain left to understand that he had been sitting there for 5 minutes, let alone that he was blatantly being fucked with. Conversation with him was like talking to a deaf person with downs syndrome through a cochlear implant that failed in the middle of half of your sentences. I wonder if he's dead yet. His mother was one of those enabling "My little Billy would never!!!!!" harpies.

It is complete and utter poison.[/QUOTE] Doing it regularly is definitely an invitation for brain damage. But it's kinda fun if you save it for rare occasions with close friends, and if you do it the right way, not with cans of whipped cream. [QUOTE=Paincake;51793549]I know a few guys from my high school who would do "whip its;" It's where you take a can of Whipit and put the nose in your mouth and spray it upwards, so you're just getting the nitrous from the can.[/QUOTE] That's not a whippit, that's just a can of whipped cream. Whippits are the small canisters of nitrous that are intended for use in whipped cream guns. (the bathtub pic is full of whippits - also, not my bathtub or my pic before anybody asks) The proper way to take nitrous is to get a cracker, a device with a pin inside that pierces the whippit and contains the nitrous under pressure until you unscrew the cracker and fill up a balloon with the gas. Then you inhale from the balloon. That's what the chav in the video was talking about and doing.

NOS is quite jokes dunno why you're all hating on it [editline]9th February 2017[/editline] A lot of regular people will do a few balloons every now and then at a party it's not that bad haha

To be fair, the most likely cause of brain damage from nitrous is caused by starving your brain of oxygen. Here's an article on erowid about it. [url]https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/nitrous/nitrous_info6.shtml[/url] [quote] Hypoxia is probably the easiest to inflict a kind of nitrous-related brain damage, but fortunately also the easiest to minimize or avoid. My recommendations for minimizing hypoxia would be, first and foremost, never do successive hits of the gas without at least breathing a few breaths in between. In particular, I would avoid re-breathing into a balloon or hitting the trash bag continuously. "Emptying" your lungs before the hit is probably fine, since your lungs don't actually empty all the way. If I recall correctly, even at maximum expulsion, there is about a liter of air left in your lungs, which will serve you well once the rest of your lung capacity is filled with nitrous. (I don't know if this is average, but I can hold my breath on "empty" lungs for about a minute if I'm in a resting state). Note that there will also be a non-trivial amount of oxygen in your blood, too. [/quote] There are also two other possible causes of brain damage from nitrous use mentioned in that article, although I'd consider them less likely but worth reading anyways. [quote] One side effect of inhaling nitrous is that each time, a little bit of your body's supply of vitamin B12 gets oxidized. Vitamin B12 is essential for the myelination of the nerves in your body. Without vitamin B12, your nerves de-myelinate and you get neural degradation. This has happened in a couple of cases to hard-core vegans who didn't do all their research and failed to eat enough B12. If you're eating well and keeping healthy, a little less vitamin B12 is not a problem at all. However, if you're oxidizing it faster than your body can absorb and/or utilize it, then you have a problem. How much nitrous does this take? A _lot_. There is one (in)famous case where a man did 200 whipets a day for 6 months. He developed a loss of motor coordination (read: had problems walking) and urinary incontinence. What happened to his brain was probably not pretty, either. Don't try that at home, kids. ... The third way you could trash your brain with nitrous is via Olney's lesions. I'm far from an expert on Olney's lesions, but my basic understanding of them is that a very specific part of your brain withers and dies, leaving a "hole". This is probably what gave rise to the "holes in the blood-brain barrier" myth. Nitrous is a disassociative anesthetic, which is in the same class as DXM (cough syrup), ketamine (anesthetic), and PCP. As far as I know, all disassociative anesthetics will cause Olney's lesions if they are abused. How much is that? Again, unless you are talking about PCP, I think the answer is "a lot". [B][Erowid Note: There is little, if any, evidence that nitrous oxide causes Olney's Lesions. See The Bad News Isn't In: A Look at the Evidence for Dissociative-Caused Brain Damage, for more information about this.][/B] [/quote] Nitrous is a dissociative like dextromethorphan(one of the active ingredients in cough medicine, usually taken in high doses when abused), ketamine, and PCP. So when saying that someone was acting slow or unable to speak properly on nitrous doesn't say much, because this is a common effect from dissociatives and will dissipate as the drug wears off. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not saying nitrous is completely safe, but using it responsibly like many other drugs is unlikely to yield issues. Of course though, when used at parties, people are unlikely to use it responsibly. If I got anything wrong here feel free to correct me.
