Question:

A famous musician, before he was famous, once shot up speed that Dee Dee Ramone gave him in a toilet cubicle using the toilet water which was as Dee Dee put it "Full of piss and puke". Who was this musician?

 

[Sepher]

Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols. And that's my last one for today. I can feel my competitive streak coming out.

Question:

A drug that effects the GABA receptors can be synthesized using Formaldehyde and an alkyne.

Name both the drug and the alkyne.

 

[Tripman]

Bump.

 

[Sepher]

It's GHB ( Gamma-Hydroxybutyric Acid ), the alkyne is acetylene.

 

[effie]

Ding ding ding!

 

[Sepher]

I've got a feeling I've just got that wrong but t'would be wrong to edit now you've dinged Effie. Ah well.

 

[effie]

Haha no that's correct

 

[skillet]

Yeah I don't know, I guess you could make it like that. I'm stumped as to what else it could be.

 

[Sepher]

Phew. Thought I'd got it confused with GBL ( gamma-Butyrolactone, definitely made with formaldehyde and acetylene. ) which is close but not quite the same.

 

[effie]

Hmmmmmm.

Well, you get the point anyway, close enough and was what I had written down as the answer

 

[Captain.Heroin]

What's the next question?

 

[Vader]

Reported for synth discussion.

 

[Sepher]

Pffffft! Ha haaa, wrong forum! Away with you and your no synthesis rule back to ADD where it belongs.

 

[effie]

Haha actually Vader has a point, no synthesis discussion in BDD. Um, look the other way people and don't discuss that question at all please!

Question to follow once I have woken up a little.

 

[effie]

Question: What is unusual about the bioavailability of gabapentin, and what is the mechanism behind this? Need both for the point, as usual

 

[JAY.DEE]

Yessss! lol I've never done PCP, and I don't think I will. Losing control to that extent doesn't sound the least bit fun...
