consumer products that can also be used for unauthorized, fun activities like sex and drugs

just had a very confusing minute where I thought you were talking about the breed of dogs.

'me whippeted', do u c what I mean about the brain damage

My Friday ritual for probably way too much of like 2000-2001 was: leave work with paycheck, cash paycheck, pick up comics on pull list, trawl record shop for fresh new releases and used bangers, buy case of whippets from sex shop, kick off tweak-end in style. I tend to unintentionally retell stories a lot these days. I'm sure that fact is unrelated. Hey, let me tell you about my Friday ritual ca. 2000-2001...

Surely you would listen to 'Whip It'?

The only part of drug education that I believed was that whip-its were dangerous. Very sad that I missed out on my prime nitrous years.

you wanna read what it feels like and sounds like? it is a sound drug, ime. you close your eyes and listen for about 30-60 seconds, then it goes away and you feel like the biggest dipshit on either side of the mississippi for a couple minutes.

hit play on rolling stones "satisfaction", try not to laugh beforehand, because you could ruin it if you laugh. deep whippet inhalation:

When I'm drivin' in my car- yar ya yar, and (and) the man come (and the man) on yon the radio oh oh oh
oh he's tellin' me more and more more orororororororororororororororor about some useless information (laughing to yourself now, then the echos of your own laughter. it is a delay pedal with the mix way high and the feedback 3/4 up. things continue for anywhere from a quick echo to 3 or 4 seconds, but crossing the 1 second mark on both the way past it and the way back.)
supposed to fire my imagination

*echoes of me saying "oh shit i think my midterm is tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-ow"*

I've never understood the reiterative sound phenomenon but it is very cool. Feeling like part of your brain has been removed afterwards is slightly less cool.

the part of my brain that would make me feel shame about that is mia. a pow, really, of the drug wars

also, if a part of your brain wants to leave that badly, then let them go. if it loves you, it'll come back

I also regret never having tried whip-its at the time, tho i understood the effects lasted even less than 30-60 seconds. I made a large scale gravity bong out of a 5 gallon water dispenser and a bathtub once, though. So i guess it balances out?

The only meaningful limitaton is lumg capacity

*lung

Anything that tests lung capacity is a useful enough science experiment

it's weird how gradually advertisement agencies evolve, and in which direction. someone should make a tv show about that. but that subway commercial is kind of a spin-off of "wacky" geico commercials from years back

its funny because Subway ads were basically all the same for like 6 years and now they're just randomly throwing shit at the walls. its like they want people to forget what their commercials used to be like for some reason

hey wait the $5 foot long song was good tho

a five dollar footlong can be used to smack jared across the face and get dust in his eyes

The only part of drug education that I believed was that whip-its were dangerous. Very sad that I missed out on my prime nitrous years.

Don't be sad, your braincells thank you.

The last time I did nitrous was in 1997 at an Atari Teenage Riot/Cardigans/Beck show and got a massive headache. All you need to know about the effects previous nitrous had done to my brain is that I did the nitrous in the parking lot AFTER the show.

lol

was it just me, or was that cardigans set incredibly psychedelic?!

Possibly related: I have nearly zero recollection of these shows.
