Laughing gas

This shit is the most fun you can have legally! Yes folks, I'm talking about Nitrous Oxide, Co2. I've just ordered a dispenser from a cookery webpage. A cookery webpage you ask? Yes, 'cause these things only normally get used for making whipped cream.

But define normal for me! You can also use them to inhale a small capsule of Co2 (ten capsules to a pack) and get kicks and giggles for ever, and HARD AS!

Costing me £35 but it's worth it! Anyone else ever tried it?

I used to date a dentist.

With those molars I believe you!
 
 
Papess

Yes, thank you (chomp)

However, I have heard inhaling Co2 can cause temporary sensations of being kissed and fondled.

There's an old thread somewhere about this - it's what they give you when you give birth. Did Sax bring it up maybe?
 
 
Newt
21:11 / 23.09.03
Does that mean I have to wait until I'm pregnant before I inhale?
 
 
Olulabelle

No, you could train to be a midwife and have 'always-on' laughing gas availability.

I hope you're not inhaling CO2. I think you mean N2O. Bit of rip off otherwise.
 
 
Newt
21:16 / 23.09.03
Oh...
 
 
Papess
21:18 / 23.09.03
Gees...I thought that was wrong
Thanks for the correction.



No mad scientist here!

What they give you to give birth is Entenox, which most people know as gas and air, but is composed of half oxygen and half nitrous oxide.

So sort of right Newt.

CO2 would be more than a ripoff -- here's what it can do:

-- Nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache, rapid breathing, flushing.

-- Severe cases progress to confusion, convulsions, and loss of consciousness.

Please don't take this wrongly, but are you sure you are being careful enough about this?

Is solid CO2 not what they freeze veruccas off with? Well for your sake, i hope it hasnt been used...

My mistake.

God, if CO2 was laughing gas, I'd be rethinking my entire attitude to the Kyoto Protocol right now...

ooo yeah, the world made a happier place by nitrous emmissions...

Actually, "nite ox", as we used to call it back in the day, is quite fun
for about 5 nights out dancing(dressed up, illegal warehouse parties,lack of
real drugs, etc...) but after that, one starts to develop serious migraine and or cluster
headaches from light exposure and it kind of ruins all the fun.

You will see...

It is WAY FUN.

As long as you STOP.

Okay, just to clear up the confusion:

N2O (nitrous oxide) is indeed the famous laughing gas. And yes, it really is used to make whipped cream-- a lot of those canned squirty cream products use it. The gas cylinders that Newt plans to buy will contain N2O.

CO2 (carbon dioxide) is not laughing gas and won't get you high. It's also hardly worth buying it, since you produce CO2 every time you exhale-- just put a bag over your head (kidding!)

I spent a good deal of my high school days whacked out on whippets. Aaah, so many memories.

Oh yes. They were all around me I tell you. Staring into my soul with their luminous pink eyes. For every one of the hideous little creatures I struck down, a dozen more rose up to take its place.

Not everyone gets the migraines, but some people do. Excessively extended use of it can deplete your B6, causing pale skin and a trip to the hospital. Though you REALLY have to over do it to get there.

Its otherwise loads of fun. I'm a big fan of it. Aah, the joys of disassociative anasthetics...

Tip: the canisters you can buy at porn stores are usually the cleaner kind. ISI is the best. Sometimes the cooking NO2 has a bit of oily residue in the canisters that can give you the before mentioned migraines.

And yea, they're sold in sex shops for a reason...

Hey Newt, you're new around here?

What (else) do you do for kicks?

Where're you from?
 
 
Newt
00:46 / 26.09.03
Hi Grant. Yes, relatively new. I'm from the UK.

Ooofh, got to go!

Wow, registered in Feb 2003. What made you wait so long to jump in? Still, you've 4 topics (including 3 new ones, all at the top of the conversation) and 15 posts to your credit.

I like that one topic is dedicated to Haus. I think its neat that new people always gravitate towards him. Hes like our own one man welcoming committee.

Oh, I like the made up story about Ali G harassing Elton John too.

You're gonna fit in great here! Welcome aboard!

Huh?

"What made you wait so long to jump in?"

Rude people like you. That, and having to sign in to read the site the other day, and a whole lot of reading. Why, are fresh voices not encouraged becauce of the troll war? Does that explain your sarcastic and unfunnee comments?

"I like that one topic is dedicated to Haus".

Was it? Could have sworn that it says 'and everyone else for that matter' in the subject line.

Anyone mind if I move to have this thread deleted? Anyone not know why?
