I'm trying not to be snotty (no pun intended) here but this whole post
comes off as judgmental and condescending. What is your point? Are you
trying to say that nitrous is an objectively "bad" drug?

It has different effects on different people. To some people it's a
powerful entheogen. To others, it's just a short-lived, dirty feeling
and uninteresting buzz.

(also, you probably didn't try combining it with LSD)
