At 2:30 in the morning if I have trouble sleeping I drive to Wal Mart with my piece and huff compressed air in the bathroom.

This idiot deserves the Darwin Award. I wonder if that Wal Mart had any ammo in stock?

Probably nitrous, I guess...

Question is, which did he shoplift from the store --- the gun, or the gas (or both)?

That's one confused individual ya got there....

“Probably nitrous, I guess”

I thought that only the old head shops sold nitrous for making whipped cream.

Nah, pretty much any place that has the whipped cream dispensers (standard kitchen item) has the whippets somewhere in the store.

Generally behind the counter, but maybe this guy knew where they were stashed...

One of the only true panic attacks I’ve ever has was after using model airplane glue in a poorly ventilated area. And when I say “using” this means assembling a model with it.

My dad said that in the Air Force in the 50s they never had touble getting some airmen to volunteer to use methyl ethyl ketone for cleaning in the enclosed belly of the planes they maintained. There's nothing like a free buzz on government chemicals... (kind of like Obama's blue pill).
