I like how someone asking if eyeballing meant to use acetone + phenazapam as an eyedrop and being met with a wall of "OH GOD NO! you loving moron" has morphed into injecting a drug directly into their eyeballs.

Yeah benzos are the “wake up to find it’s three days later, you have a voicemail from your boss saying you’re fired, and you apparently bought a grand piano” drug*, not the construction drug.

Benzos and alcohol can treat each other's withdrawal. You wouldn't get DT.

I think the idea is you can give a measured dose of long half life benzos to keep the wolves at bay for a day, rather than doling shots every four hours or whatever.

Da joose was a cheap, potent russian benzo with a long half life (like 50 hours), slow come up, and a tiny range for recreational doses. To translate that, you could buy 500mg of it for like $80, and 1-3mg would keep you at 'feeling good and a bit tipsy' for a weekend. While 5mg+ would put you into a multiday blackout. There's literally no way to tell the difference between those doses by just looking at the powder (eyeballing), because they're both just tiny white specks. And since it took like 4 hours to feel the effects, people would think it wasn't working and dose two or three times before the first dose started to kick in.

It was an absolutely amazing drug for producing content.

IIRC the "recommended" method of preparing joose was to dilute it in large quantities because it was harder to gently caress up putting 30 grams in 10 litres of water than 3 grams in 1.

Of course this now meant you had enough joose prepared to black out for two weeks straight if you kept drinking it in your joose induced fugue state but what are the odds of that?

I have a hundred of these but here are a couple of my favorites:

In basic training we had a guy named Jackson who talked baby talk. The best way I can describe his accent was he sounded like Elmer Fudd, "ok gwuis we ish gonna go do dis ting".
He managed to get a hold of bug spray one of the night in basic and I remember him soaking the burlap strips on his helmet the before we climbed into our Bivvys. I mean he was loving dousing that poo poo.
The next day we are standing in the hot sun on a range and he is giving the stink eye to this string hanging loose in his face away from the rest of his burlap. After a moment he pulls out a pack of mre matches and tries to burn away that string. A second later his whole loving helmet lights up with flames.

It's so hard to adequately describe how funny the next few seconds were. First he stared straight ahead with this dumb look on his face trying to figure out what had just happened. Then he starts running back and forth failing to get his helmet off, tugging at the chin strap screaming "MY BURWAP IS ON FIYAH! MY BURWAP IS ON FIYAH!" The drill sergeants all run over to him and right as they get there he manages to get his helmet off but as he threw it to the ground he kicks it, it rolls across the range and lights the field on fire. The drill sgts and the rest of us were all laughing to hard to put it out so when we all finally stopped hyperventilating we had to evacuate the range.

The second story is one of my favorites because the kid is a good friend and a good soldier but drat could he be dumb on some things. Edge came back on base one day bragging about how he had gotten a new truck. He said he walked into the dealership, told them what he wanted, got what he wanted and then walked out the same day. I said, let me see your paperwork... Followed by, "MOTHERFUCKER YOU BOUGHT A TRUCK WITH TWENTY SIX PERCENT INTEREST RATE??? we are taking this poo poo back right now".
