Getting Stoned on JB-Weld

[Paint...@unlisted.moo]

Have the idiot young people found a way to get stoned on JB-Weld?
Apparently so. I bought some at Walmart, and it was my only purchase, so
I decided to endure the "self checkout" (I hate those things). I scanned
the package and it said I must be at least 18 years old to purchase.

So much for a speedy checkout. 15 minutes later I finally got someone to
agree that I was over 18, so I could finish checking out. (Now you know
why I hate those self checkouts).

Anyhow, how do the idiot kids use JB-Weld to get stoned? Do they eat it,
smoke it, inject it, or what? I doubt sniffing it would do anything, it
dont have much of an odor.....

Maybe what they should do, is use it to glue their brains to their
assholes..... Oh, never mind, that wont work, todays youth dont have any
brains!

15 minutes? Please explain what went on in those 15 minutes. Did it take 15 minutes because
no employee was available to help you? Did it take 15 minutes for them to review your
identification? What exactly transpired in those 15 minutes?

What does odor have to do with it? Carbon monoxide has no odor but it certainly
does something when you "sniff it".

...generalized rantings snipped...

Epoxy is not out gassing anything toxic or psychoactive. This is just
an over abundance of caution on the part of Walmart's lawyers. It is
"glue" so they don't want to take a chance that someone might sniff
it.

Let's not be too quick to lay the blame on Walmart's lawyers. It could
be their localized response to some idiotic local ordinance drafted and
put on the books by high school dropouts "doing this for the kids"

Agreed. Unlike glues like model cement, which releases some sort of gas
that will make a person light headed (or worse), epoxy does nothing. If
I was to intentionally sniff it, I doubt anything would happen, or maybe
it would irritate my sinuses at worst. Silicone caulk is probably worse.
That stuff burns my eyes if I use it in a confined space. But again it
wont cause any "high". I wonder if Walmart has an age restriction on
Silicone too?

A few weeks ago, I bought some carb cleaner at Walmart, there was NO age
resttiction on that, and that stuff probably could be used for sniffing,
if someone was stupid enough to do it.

It seems Walmart's policies are based on ignorance, not fact. I know I'd
be really pissed if I had a kid who was 17, and I sent him to Walmart to
buy some JB-Weld, for a project we were doing for his 4H activities, and
he was refused to buy it.

Ya know, I just realized that JB-Weld is what dopers can use to make bongs or crack pipes. O_o

At one time I was buying Wincester White Box ammo from Walmart. It was
adequate for practice and inexpensive. One evening I checked out with
two boxes of .45 ACP shells. Apparently the woman at checkout had to
confirm something involving the sale of handgun ammo to minors because
she muttered to herself, "Yeah, like he's going to use it in a shotgun."

[DerbyDad03]

I know that. I was responding to the Paint Meister who seems to think that odorless
substances "won't do anything" if sniffed. If that were true, we wouldn't need CO
detectors.

[gfre...@aol.com]

The MSDS says
Inhalation
No known significant effects or critical hazards

[DerbyDad03]

Again, you seem to be missing the point of my response.

I was not referring to any specific substance. I was responding to a
specific *comment* from Paint. (If you don't associate the "it" with
JB Weld, you should be able to see what I was trying to say.)

Paint said:

"I doubt sniffing it would do anything, it dont have much of an odor"

That statement seems to imply that Paint believes that *any* substance without
an odor won't have any effect on the sniffer. As I tried to point out, CO
"dont (sic) have much an odor" but it would certainly do something if you
sniffed it. Many substances that "dont (sic) have much an odor" should not
not sniffed.

i.e. As a general statement, "odorless" does not mean "won't do anything".

Excuse me for trying to stay on topic. Carry on.

[Paint...@unlisted.moo]

Thanks for staying on topic and posting the MSDS info.

I just had the same experience there! wth! And I wondered the same thing. I guess if there's a way, there's going to be some idiot to try it

Kinda ironic but it took you way more than 15 minutes just to rant about walmarts id policies over epoxy adhesives. So now add that to your 15 minutes. Ahhh the luxury of being a home owner huh?

[biggdaddy]
