A kid chugged a 4 oz. bottle of Robitussin in front of me last night

No, “evil” is a 25-year-old man indulging in substance abuse.
In public.

I’m 52. From my perspective, Life is precious. Health is precious. The body you’re equipped with at birth isn’t that sturdy to begin with, but with care, it can last you 80 years.

So I’m frankly astonished when I see someone who doesn’t seem to understand what a fragile equilibrium his human body exists in, when I see him run it into the ground by deliberately overdosing it with something, whether it’s DXM or crack or alcohol.

It’s the same way you’d be shocked if you saw someone with a classic car using it in a demolition derby. You’d think, “Geez, doesn’t the poor mope get that that thing’s valuable?”

Same sentiment here.


I’m getting uncomfortable with the “is it okay for me to try DXM and/or nutmeg, and if so, how?” slant this thread seems to be heading. IMO that’s skating too close to the edge of agreeing “not to post material that in our opinion fosters or promotes activity that is illegal in the U.S.” And robotripping by under-18s is illegal.

So I’m going to ask a mod to close this. It wasn’t my intention to start a debate on the morality of substance abuse, or to offer a venue for the DIYers (Somethingawful.com already has a massive forum dedicated to that.)

All I wanted was to share something mundane and pointless. Mission accomplished, I guess.

Closed at the request of the OP.
