Oh jeez. I poured the last of a bottle down the drain once once it had oxidized too much (we don't use them often) and got a ridiculous head rush.
As to the popper convo I use them because, frankly, it makes the initial bit to bottoming that much easier and the rest of the experience more fun since the initial part was easy. I don't use them with everyone, and can see why some people might now want to use them. What I don't understand is why people would be vehemently against them. They're legal, probably the safest drug on the market (from the research I've read), and the worst you'll get out of it is a bit of a headache if you take 'em.
I mean, after all, a lot of people drink or smoke to get loosened up for sex but that's generally not stigmatized.
