There was a MAD TV sketch back in the 90s. But I think it was a four year alcohol blackout and a guy wakes having just won his 2nd term as POTUS and Winona Ryder is First Lady.

isn't RC drugs just another term for what are colloquially called bath salts

like, I know some of the better-known stuff like the 2-c series are pretty well-studied and such, but IIRC a lot of the drugs that fall under the "bath salts" umbrella are literally just lab-created analogs/variations of existing drugs, in order to get by controlled substances regulations and laws. The problem is that a relatively minor tweak to a chemical can have wildly unpredictable effects, hence you end up with people eating their faces because you subbed out a carbon atom for a hydroxyl molecule in a methamphetamine analog or whatever

the problem with bath salts and spice is that they're both just mystery drugs, containing whatever synthetics the manufacturers had on hand at that moment when they were packaging it. so you may end up with a mellow high and you may end up insanely untethered and pissing on passing cars, it's a roll of the dice each time

I guess the way it really shakes out is “all bath salts are RC’s but not all RC’s are bath salts”. Most bath salts are in a specific class of RC’s and you’d have to be terminally stupid to do either of them.

Except for a brief period from 2011-2012, I haven't lived in North America since 2008. I also don't like cops and would never watch a crime show on purpose. I'm sure I've seen it, like, on TV at random, but I've just never watched it. Is that the one where the guy shows his butt a lot?

Tbh the only police shows I've ever seen are Matlock and Brooklyn 99 (which I hate, except for Gina and Rosa, also I'm Gina.)

That was a different one which ended up raising ~$70k, a few gallons of donated blood, and a bunch of shaved heads.
It was a "do my homework please" thread and the donations were to the Red Cross for the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.

"The website Something Awful held a fundraiser of sorts that started after posters in their message boards got tired of a user trying to use them as help for his homework,[194] saying they would donate if the user was banned. It later added a head-shaving portion and a blood drive. At least $70,000 dollars was donated to charity, $1,750 in shaved heads and 30 pints of blood was ultimately given."

In one of the SA blood drives (maybe the earthquake one), a goon wanted to donate and discovered he had screaming high blood pressure, so a life saved right there.

You're thinking of the Fukushima earthquake, some kid was asking questions in GBS that were transparently just trying to get goons to do his homework for him, so some mod or other set up a challenge that every donation to Red Cross/Medecins Sans Frontieres/etc for Fukushima would add time to that kid's probation

I think the best post I remember regarding TCC, other than the catacombs thing, was someone talking about how that forum was the equivalent of all the min/maxing goons only playing with their lives.

It was something to the effect of "All these goons, they see this old man who has to do enough drugs to kill an elephant just to get through the day, and he tells them how they should never make the choices he does, lest they end up like him. And of course, the goons are just asking how to do just the right amount of drugs that they can have a good time, and they'll never get addicted because they know their limits."

Also, the saddest TCC thread was the shortlived Krokodil thread. I'm still not sure if that was parody, but the fact that someone would willingly want to do that is.

Krokodil is the drug you use when you have gone so far into the territory of not caring anymore that you're actively trying to kill yourself with opioids.

I remembered some of the middle details wrong, but essentially still correct, goons raised nearly 70 large in relief aid for Fukushima out of spite

Krokodil isn’t even that strong, compared to the poo poo that’s out there. It was big in Russia because they sold codeine over the counter, and you could take that codeine and make it into desomorphine with some basement chemistry. It wasn’t even the desomorphine that killed krokodil users, it was all the harsh poo poo from the basement chemistry that they were shooting right into their veins.
