It has a variety of different kinds of taste buds. What does potent Dorito flavor mean in a scientific context? It means it fits just right on your tongue. It’s an extremely strong taste because chemical engineers have done an amazing job of making the powder all over those damn chips extremely potent. It lets me explain receptors without having to be completely obtuse. OK maybe now I get invited to some of those sort of parties, but it’s sponsored by Pharma and I have to disclose the value of all the snacks made available to me. I never got invited to those sort of parties. I have never used any drugs recreationally in my life. How genuinely uncool I was 2 may seem like a joke. Scott gets to be cool, for the first time since his 1995 turn as Puck.ĪI Prompt my wife entered into Midjourney: “A nerdy 18 year old boy with black curly hair and black glasses is excluded from a frat party at Amherst College and is instead reading a book about organic chemistry” Or, maybe, Julius Caesar, triumphantly crossing the Rubicon. Scott Muir, this is basically the one time he gets to walk into any (virtual) room and feel like The Fonz. Like when they run into their Midsummer Night’s Dream co-star from freshman year at a 20th High School reunion and realize they have so much more in common than they ever knew! There is an opportunity waiting-right here-with an expectant audience of the several dozen people who find this very specific column entertaining! For our narrator, O. Hepatic (that’s “in the liver”) metabolism didactics are the kind of walk down memory lane that most people only get rarely. I spent a significant amount of time in my life as an MCAT teacher for Kaplan. Well, here’s where it gets really exciting for me from a nostalgia perspective. The other, to the surprise of many, is our old friend dextromethorphan, the cough suppressant!Ĭan this be some exciting new thing when it’s really two old things ? One of them is bupropion, which we’ve known as Wellbutrin forevah. It turns out to be a combination of two drugs that have been around for a hell of a long time. It’s a rapid-acting treatment for depression. The Tylenol that was sometimes included can be deadly, in overdose, too.īespoke burritos and college era chicanery aside, dextromethorphan made a big comeback in the pharmaceutical trade news this week! The FDA approved a new treatment for depression. It was pretty dangerous, mostly because if you accidentally took the common combination of Robitussin and guaifenesin, you get sick, or die. This used to be a bargain basement way to get wasted. ” Shame that never became a song.Īt this point, for all of my health executive readership who, presumably didn’t hang out with degenerates in alt-rock bands to get to the c-suite, I will define terms: Robo-tripping is what young people call it when they ingest a lot of dextromethorphan (brand-name: Robitussin) and get really, really high. To quote the poster advertising one particularly lively party, let’s “ Bust The ‘Tuss. This is not to say Robo-tripping wasn’t an activity of choice amongst my classmates. You probably thought I was going to disclose that I did some Robo-tripping in college? You would be incorrect.
So special, in fact, that 20 years later, this is still a go-to for me! It’s something about that combination-noted even on the menu, written in chalk- this remarkably simple combination of spinach and garlic as one especiale burrito. Not only did I get to eat at my favorite burrito restaurant from my days at Amherst College, but I got to think about Robo-tripping again. This picture was made after providing the prompt to Midjourney: “A bottle of cough syrup and an antidepressant get married in a psychedelic themed wedding“ Most of the images in this dispatch were created by artificial intelligence.
