What's The Deal With Poppers?!

Even cum? lol

Ha ha.
Yes, precisely, Jason.

One guy in a video booth suddenly jammed this little bottle under my nose one day and I inhaled before I knew what was going on. It smelled AWFUL and made my nose burn and eyes water. I thought it was Vicks mixed with lighter fluid. Had no idea what poppers were or what they were for.

I was furious and immediately stopped playing. Thank God I did because I have genetic hypotension and had I indulged too much I could have passed out easily.

Once I learned what they were, I was a bit relieved it wasn't illegal, but I still had no desire to be a gas huffer of any sort.

still confused on what poppers actually are

Amyl nitrate is what poppers are.

thank you

Isn't this why one of the slang terms for Amyl Nitrate is "locker room?"

Just to be technical, it's nitrites, not nitrates; amyl nitrite is used clinically. The most common recreational formula is butyl nitrite. The whole class of compounds are called alkyl nitrites. They are esters formed by the reaction of an alcohol with nitrous acid and a catalyst. When inhaled, they cause an instant dilation of blood vessels, resulting in a dramatic, instant drop in blood pressure and increase in heart rate.

Back in 'the day' I used them (I still have partners that want/need them to help open this up for my size). I stopped after twice taking a 'sniff' and going instantly limp... Annoying to say the least, embarrassing as well...also had a wicked headache afterward...

Limp + nasty headache? gee....where do I sign up?

Caught that distinctive smell one day at home, discovered my son was using/trying them. Had a long talk and told him to google it. I think he is a lot more cautious now.

I got a headache and made me vomit.

Sulfites and nitrates are brain killers. Don't use them.
