I called whats-her-face on the phone, told her what a heartless cold messed-up psycho bitch-who-can-never-hold-onto-a-man she was, and hung up while delivering an ancient Anglo-Saxon invective with gusto.
"Putting two and two together, I hypothesized that breathing nitrous oxide might "break the vicious cycle" of pining, by breaking the addiction pathway in the part of my brain responsible for pining."
Riiiight... I think it might be more complicated than adding two and two. But there is always the placebo effect.
WTF!? I don't mean to be an insensitive dick, but for the love of God, please do not follow this guy's advice. Instead of huffing, go out and get some fresh pussy asap. Surround yourself with other people, especially girls. Be confident, despite your low self esteem and don't tell them you just got dumped or anything about your ex. Meet and approach as many women as possible. Don't act pathetic or shy and don't be afraid of rejection. You can't hit a home run if you never swing. Babe Ruth's batting average was .342, do the math. Realize that if this chick shit on you, she did you a favor by breaking up with you. There are a gazillion fish in the sea and you gotta go fishing A LOT to find the best one for you. When you find the right woman, it is amazing and, if you treat her right, she won't shit on you. If/when she does, realize that she wasn't the one and start over. STOP HUFFING, IDIOT.
While I think it would be a great idea for this guy to start approaching and talking to women, I don't think that seeking validation from women should be his highest priority. He's in a fucked up emotional state and should overcome that first. Once that's done he'll be much more relaxed and emotionally consistent when he does start talking to girls.
It might be harsh, but I wish someone would have said it to me, just like that, a long time ago. I wonder what percent of that two percent were thinking exactly the same thing as me. ;)
I'm perplexed as to why this is getting votes on HN. I know we're not supposed to criticize things for not being "hacker news," but seriously, some guy discovers drugs as a coping mechanism for his grief, and it gets posted here (presumably as a brain-chemistry "hack"), and people are saying, "yes, this is the sort of content I'd like to see more of"?
Seriously, creepy guy has a train-wreck of an internet relationship and is dealing with it in unhealthy ways. Why are people up-voting this instead of flagging it?
You'd have to be stupid to get your N20 out of a Pam can though.
Here's a secret: nitrous oxide is legal to recreationally consume in most of the 50 states and can be purchased at porn stores. Seriously, they keep it under the counter in whipping cream canister form and they will also sell the "cracker" needed to safely pierce the canisters as well as heavy duty balloons.
Don't let the idiot who made this blog post turn your off. N20 is one of the safest medical drugs in existence. It's the anesthetic with the longest history of use and it is as safe as can be. The only danger is that you hold your breath too long, but that's not a big deal, just make sure you breathe some oxygen after a minute. Also, in high doses over a long period of time, N20 depletes your body's vitamin B which is very bad, but this is easily fixed by a multivitamin.
Nitric oxide (NO) ≠ nitrous oxide (N2O). One of these comes in whippets, the other one oxidizes rapidly into toxic nitrogen dioxide (NO2) unless delivered very carefully.
Quoting the OP: "Remember that airplane-looking thing that Burt Rutan built, that went into space carrying some 50-year-old dude who thought he was hot shit but almost went out of control?"
The pilot of SpaceShipOne was Michael Melville, he was 63 at the time, and he definitely has the Right Stuff.

Thoroughly depressing to read his other posts. The gist of it: he fell hard for some woman he chatted with online.
Blog post N+1: "Flowers can Backfire"
Classic.
NO2 makes me love going to the dentist. Huffing whipped cream to 'feel better' is lunacy. Go have a beer and give it the time you need to heal.
I don't think he's quite over her yet.

Only 2% of news.yc users in the self-reported survey were women, and this is kind of why.
1. A russian woman
2. that he met online
3. who is mean,
4. divorced
5. and cheating on him.
Seriously. Don't do it.

It's of course cheaper to get it online: http://www.creamright.com/WHIP-CH.html

Now if this article contained anything new about brain chemistry or some sort of study I wouldn't be flagging it.
