  • Naked Guy's Drug of Choice Has More Nicknames than ODB

    Vermont State Police recently responded to a naked dude running around the village of Norwich. They thought they guy was tripping on acid, but it turns out that there's about a billion other names for the stuff he was doing.

    During the subsequent investigation it was learned that the man had taken a drug identified as "2C-B" (the investigation identified 2C-B is an illicit, synthetic Schedule I hallucinogen).

    2C-B is also known as: Nexus, Bromo, Toonies, Performax, 2's, Spectrum, Synergy, Venus, Eve, Erox, Zenith, Cloud Nine, Utopia, Cee-Beetje and Afterburner. In 1995, the DEA placed 2C-B on Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act.

    The guy must have made this "2C-B" himself, because how the hell would you buy it from someone else? "Hey man, you got any Nexus? You know, Bromo? Toonies? Um, Performax? Yeah, Performax.... like "Perform" with "ax" at the end. No?" You'd have to be high just to get through all the streetnames!
