Fire Up The Roflcoptr! It's The Worst Drug In The World (MXE)

NME has run another article about this 'roflcoptr' bullshit.

"I'd love to have been present at the meeting where makers of new club drug Roflcoptr thought up the name. 'Guys, we've invented a stimulant that makes you fill your pants and listen to Kate Bush. What shall we call it?' 'LOLcano? Chairman LMAO? Amazebonk?' 'No, none of those are stupid or annoying enough. Wait, I've got it...'

Of course, it's not really called Roflcoptr, any more than mephedrone was ever called 'meow meow' outside of the tabloids. The drug is methoxetamine, it's similar to ketamine, and it exploits the same legal loophole that enabled mephedrone to flourish in 2009 - ie, chemists take an illegal drug and tweak its molecular structure very slightly, until it's technically a different substance, and therefore legal.

Roflcoptr might sound like a joke - and it is, sort of. The word itself, in case you're not familiar, was originally an item of online-gaming 'leetspeak' that went irritatingly mainstream. In this case, the manufacturers coyly deny that it's an acronym for 'rolling on the floor, laughing, crapping our pants, totally ruined'. But the drug is an actual thing, not a hoax.

It's cheap. You can buy it online, from a larkily-written website, for £17 a gram. Whether you'd want to is a different matter. If you've read our recent news story on the drug, or the original Mixmag feature, you'll be aware of its most unfortunate side effect, namely that - and there's no pleasant way to phrase this - it makes you shit yourself. Methoxetamine has also been known to trigger psychotic episodes, causing one user to "impulsively fondle a stranger’s breasts, as if controlled by an external force."

Hmm. But beyond the absurd details, there is something novel and interesting going on here. Recreational drugs are traditionally sold on the strength of their potency, or naughtiness. Methoxetaline - or 'mket', which again no-one actually seems to be calling it - might be the first drug in history ever to be marketed as a joke."

Nobody has ever reported, in 7 megathreads and countless trip reports, sudden loss of control of their bowels. Period.

Hell, that's as bad as psychosis gets? Phew.

This is just so fucking insulting. My own use of MXE, although generally enjoyable, has caused more misery, depression and health scares than anything else I've experienced. Many others echo similar sentiments. There's so many users at various stages of both psychological and physical methoxetamine addiction. To know all of this, yet market MXE as a joke and have reporters market MXE as a joke...I dunno. I can't find any suitable words for how I feel about this.



Wait, what?
"Methoxetaline - or 'mket'"

"Methoxetaline"

Roflcoptr is going to ruin everything. The best case scenario is that MXE gets the temporary ban. Worst case (and probably more likely) scenario, all our commonly used RCs get banned.

Lol the dumbass author of the article can't even spell the damn chemical he wrote his article on correctly.

No,no,no,no, please no!

This is literally my mental reaction. I mean, making chemicals illegal does prompt gray area chemists to come up with new ones but still, if its anything like the cathinones-which I didn't like except for Methylone-then the replacements won't be as good-though maybe they will come up with new dissosciatives, there aren't many RC's I've tried that I like quite as much as mxe. The only downside to mxe is the habit forming nature of the compound and that these idiots have named it roflcopter.

You need to stop with these articles. I'm running out of the stuff. By the way, if anybody wants to employ a viral marketing consultant I'm thinking of switching careers, I seem to have a previously untapped talent for it and this job doesn't look like it's got much of a future.

Wow, the writer of that sucks. He blatantly stole lines and quips from people. LOLocaust was posted on their Twitter... (roflcoptrmxe)

..what the fuck??
 
In 2011, a Swedish woman died after injecting 100g of the stuff as part of a massive cocktail of other substances.

No no no no you absolute BULLSHIT journalist.
 
im still just laughing at Roflcoptr. . .

They are assuming all users of this drug are online g33ks then.

I know a few people that aren't and are unfamiliar with the phrase roflcopter who have done it.
It didnt sound like full strength mxe that they did though :P
 
100 grams (and a terrible movie name) aside, "massive cocktail of other drugs".

Perhaps all the people involved in black market PCP and ketamine are pushing this crap through.
PCP has been making a huge come back in my parts.

You live in America though, right? This is strictly a British abomination. Although 'Overseas customers are welcome' according to their homepage 8)
 
It is a sudden change of dynamics, but I get the impression this may just be a freak event, since they've bizarrely based the 'roflcoptr' around the 'cake' episode of the slightly obscure British satire 'Brass Eye'. I get the feeling this could only have happened in Britain. If MXE gets the temporary ban in the UK, I doubt there will be many ripples across the pond. There was like 2 years between our cathinones scheduling and yours, and yours seemed to be only influenced by the American media attention.
