Was teaching a adult class, and several times 2 younger guys left the room together and would come back together. One of them was wearing a hoodie and when he came back would cover up his entire face in the hoodie. The room temperature was comfortable.

It was a crowded room so I cant imagine they were smoking weed, because of the smell. Any idea what these two were up to? No other noticeable weird behavior so I don’t think they were doing coke or meth.

Ecstacy? Heroin? The hoodie is the only real clue I had something weird was up with these two.

Maybe the hoodie was covering up hickeys.

Hey you never know.

I don’t know that any of that behavior indicates drug use of any kind.

**Moderator Action**

I don’t think that you are going to find a factual answer to this. Since this is going to be more speculation and opinion than fact, let’s move it to IMHO.

They were smoking X-rocks, which is like MDMA but only lasts 30 minutes or so. And the hoodie thing says they were also injecting Krokodil into their philtra. As a teacher, you should know these things.

They were just high on life, man.

Also, they were covering up their faces so you couldn’t see that you were boring them to sleep. :smack:

Those are all the telltale signs of nutmeg and banana peel abuse.

If I had to guess, huffing. But no idea.

Classic signs of Jenkem huffing. Lock your shit up.

they are vaping cannabis derivatives

They are too high and paranoid that they look stoned so they cover up

That’ll be $100

The hoodie guy just needed a good cry. Several good cries. So a bunch of times him and his buddy went outside so he could talk about life and cry and talk about life and cry. And each time they went back to class again he’d pull the hoodie real tight over his face so that no one could see that he had been crying. Because it’s 2015 and men _still_ can’t cry in public without it being a big deal. Which is the real outrage here.
