      You can’t test for it on a routine drug screen.

      Maybe the accused were going to be sent for a further blood test to more accurately determine drug levels or something like that and they thought better to come clean now than look like a dick when they’re caught out for further substance abuse, whether it would’ve been detected or not.

        Maybe they were caught on video. Nitrous has a half-life of like 5 minutes. They say it can’t be tested in “routine tests” but I’m pretty sure it just can’t be tested.

      I don’t care if they use weed, but they are enforcing the UK’s shitty weed laws. It’s shitty to then turn around and smoke yourself, after you bust someone for a few grams

          I tried half a weed once and I nearly OD’d. Thought I could fly and nearly threw myself off a hotel balcony. It’s what the hallucinations were telling me to do.

        Taking? More like injecting.

    “Met” as an abbreviation always throws me off. I thought this post was about some dudes that OP met, and I wondered how you end up meeting people during their drug tests.

    The actual story is not nearly as interesting…
