Drugs are bad, mmkay.
Jesus, put a fucking warning label on it or something! I don't want to look at Krokodil images!

It's payday! another couple thousand dumped into my bank account!

Why in the terrified thread?

2 paydays ago, tooth #5 decided it needed a root canal.

Last payday, had finished antibiotics (Penicillin) from #5, and #4 which was previously canal'd decided to get inflamed, so get special antibiotics (Augmentin) with horrible side effects.

Today, every little twitch in the area of #4 is freaking me the fuck out; maybe everything will be fine; of the root of the tooth might be cracked in which case it'll have to come out.

But, I won't know until there is severe pain, and I'm having panic attacks waiting, and waiting...

If there is no problem, good, if there is a problems, it can be fixed, good; but not knowing

Last night I dreamed that that I was an immortal severed head with one tooth.

#4.
Just have it ripped out, quick and easy fix.

Well, the article is titled "Drug-users eaten alive by flesh eating illness caused by Krokodil". The NSFWness goes without saying.

It's old, but it's a major problem in Russia. Sales of some of the ingredients have almost quintupled.

I'm just spooked because if the cartels starts pushing it aggressively, there would be lots of horribly maimed or dead people in both Mexico and the US.

That might be the thing that gets officials to change drug policy, though. Pot doesn't scare people, and cocaine and heroin use can be discrete. Krokodil is extremely visible.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Krokodil isn't the kind of drug to get pushed by cartels, though - its whole appeal is that it's easily made from OTC reagents. If you want highly addictive and dangerous drugs that would be appealing to cartels, look into fentanyl analogues and the story of George Marquardt ;)

I guess. But since it's an easy to make drug, I would think there will be much more deaths among the poor and desperate.

Krokodil mixed with bath salts. They cause you to go crazy and eat people's faces.

The world is a weird place nowadays, isn't it?

So it resolves by it being a bunch of rich people shooting up the poor? Call of Duty would be some sort of oracle then.

* Darvi huddles in a corner and tries not to throw up.

Unrelated because of that mental image, but still.

Ah, so all I need to survive the zombie apocalypse is amass immeasurable amounts of wealth. Shouldn't be too hard.
