Are drugs that hard to get?

[Kuya]

ATLANTA -- At least 82 youths have died from the so-called "choking game," according to the first government count of fatalities from the tragic fad.

In the game, children use dog leashes or bungee cords wrapped around their necks or other means to temporarily cut blood flow to their head. The goal is a dreamlike, floating-in-space feeling when blood rushes back into the brain.

As many as 20 percent of teens and preteens play the game, sometimes in groups, according to estimates based on a few local studies. But nearly all the deaths were youths who played alone, according to the count compiled by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

And here i thought drugs, videogames, and tv were enough for kids these days.

rofl, i was watching a story about this on the news several years ago, and my dad (who's clueless when it comes to both of his sons' social lives) was apparently watching it too. well he walks in the room im in and straight up asks me if i play the choking game with any of my friends, i thought it was really funny he'd ask me that. i'd never heard of this stupid game before then, but from what i understand it's a bunch of idiot pre-teens sitting in a circle getting the most ridiculous "high" on the planet. thank god they arent the next generation or this world would be fucked.

I don't usually say things like "natural selection" and "darwinism" because that shit barely has anything to do with the actual theories, but god damn.

Not any teen. Some haven't the faintest clue who to ask or where to look because they have no connections or aren't part of that "crowd". There are definitely avenues open to any teen who knows where to look, but not everyone does.

Besides, whatever happened to Jenkem? I guess that nationwide fad didn't provide enough of a high, so they turn to choking.

Shit. Every morning I got on the bus to school it was the drug stock market.

These kids must walk to school.

I've never heard about this before, but I remember that Jenkem stuff. That used to be the most disgusting thing I ever saw, until I was introduced to tubgirl and 2girls1cup. Ah those were the days.

Back when I was a boy scout they used to haze incoming recruits with something they called the 'breathing test' where you're asked to touch your toes, back to the wall, while breathing full, deep breaths for 30 seconds.

Then you were asked to take a final inhale and stand up again while holding your breath. At that point a fellow scout would come up to you and press on your chest, hard.

9 times out of 10 hilarity ensued.

What's happening here is pure natural selection at work.

What does that do lol?

I've had this done before, but it was done differently...It was years ago, I was probably in junior high school. My best friend's sister would take her index and middle fingers and hold them over the place on the neck where a pulse is usually taken. I tilted my head back and looked toward the ceiling. After a few minutes, she let go and it feels really really fucked up.

Is mom's minivan close enough?

@scout hazing: what does that do? make him vomit/pass out? Or just get pissed off?

This makes said person pass out for about 5-10 seconds, and they usually wake up and say something really fucking off the wall.
