This is how a lot of people seem to think drugs work, but it isn't very accurate even for drugs like PCP. Phencyclidine exhibits its effects by binding to NMDA and PCP receptors in the brain. Other 'common' drugs that do this are dextromethorphan and ketamine.
No, you are wrong (about me crossing the line) and you miss my point. I wasn't referring to PCP or any other of what are generally considered recreational drugs. I was referring to actual embalming fluid (not "embalming fluid" as in the slang for PCP) or any other crap we can find under the sink or in the garage. My point is that there are some things that are drugs and some things which can fuck you up because they are literally fucking you up. People just need to have the common sense tostick with one and stay away from the other.
