Poppers

[Rainy day woman]

Are they legal and can you buy em on any of the stalls at Glastonbury?

[staggerlee]

I think they sell them.

Saying that, I thought Glastonbury has a zero tolerance with glass?

[stuartbert two hats]

I bought some last year. Burnt my nose. Took the glass home.

[spikytom]

they are sold there, but since the law was altered a year or two ago theyre harder to find, have a slightly different formula and have child proof caps on! and the people that sell them arent allowed to call them poppers, theyre 'tent odourisers'!

You'll have a headache in the morning.

Your not allowed to call them poppers, has to be room odourisers for some reason. The cost is £5 and you can get them easy enough in the dance village.

Poppers are only good if you are already wrecked. For some reason the thumping head just doesn't materialise - but if you do them straight it's like being walloped between the eyes with a frozen buffalo.

I have never done poppers, what exactly do they do?

Give you a rush for a minute or so. And then give you a headache. And probably rot your brain cells. Rubbish, you may as well just sniff glue!*

*Please don't though!

I used to love poppers. I was challenged to inhale 50 (yes fifty) large sniffs of them in one go once. I passed out instantly. My friends (being the lovely chaps that they are) rather than check I was still alive decided to have a game of human buckaroo and pile everything they could find on top of me. I woke up 8 or so hours later covered in all sorts of paraphanalia and with the mother of all headaches.

Needless to say, I don't do poppers any more!

By the way - I do not recommend anybody do this, apparently it can do your brain some serious damage

[muddyslingbax]

i just don't get why people like them and i have appreciated a fairly wide spectrum of drugs. I don't find that throbbing shit my heads gonna explode feeling and the buzzing in the ears anything other than uncomfortable.

[Ashaz42]

Why would anybody want to do them? They're horrible.

last year at the herbal highs stall (the one between the pyramid and the other stages) they did not sell poppers and they had signs EVERYWHERE saying that they didnt.

but i don't know about other stalls around the site.

at reading last year you could get them anywhere lol.

poppers just remind me of gay people. they use it to loosen their ass hole don't you know hha.

[phellix]

Worst drug ever if you can call them that.

Aren't poppers for homosexuals used to widen the anus?

[Josie's Cat]

Surely not worse than a rogue batch of LSD that was allegedly around a while back, that gave you instant Parkinson's disease! That's pretty bad. I can't imagine how it's possible, but it's still bad!

They are supposed to be popular with the gay scene, yes! Also once Ainsley Harriot did an interview in Mixmag 9yes really!) where he said he once passed out at the back of Heaven after abusing the poppers! Can't stop won't stop!

#19 out of 20 in that harmfulness ranking that was published a couple of years back (Heroin and cocaine being #1 and 2).

I'd be surprised if they aren't fairly widely available but to fully comply with legislation they have redesigned child proof caps (good thing) and a new "recipe" (bad thing).
