    So is going to Taco Bell the equivalent of building a meth lab now?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    An implausible story about a natural high derived from human waste is causing a stink on the Internet and has forced a local sheriff's department to issue a warning about the "drug."

    The Collier County Sheriff's Office in Tampa, Fla., recently released a bulletin warning of a new drug threat in America — jenkem — made by fermenting human **** and urine and huffing the gas produced.

    "We wouldn't classify it as a drug so much because it's **** and urine," said Garrison Courtney, a spokesman for the Drug Enforcement Administration in Washington, D.C.

    "You've pretty much hit the bottom of the barrel if you're experimenting this," he added.

    The confidential memo, dated Sept. 26, was meant "for officer safety and awareness," but it was leaked and found its way online, where it was posted Monday on the Smoking Gun, which questioned "what they're inhaling down in Collier County."

    Internet pundits were quick to jump on the intelligence briefing, noting that the photos and descriptions of the high jenkem produced came from "Pickwick," a contributor to the Web site Totse.com, who later admitted his "use" of jenkem was faked using flour, water, beer and Nutella.

    "I never inhaled any **** gas and got high off it," he wrote on Sept. 24. "I have deleted the pictures, hopefully no weirdo saved them to his computer. I just don't want people to ever recognize me as the kid who huffed **** gas."


    A spokeswoman for the Collier County Sheriff's Office acknowledged Tuesday that the report came from their office "just to share, see what's out there" after a parent e-mailed the department. No incidents of jenkem's use have been reported in the county, she said.

    Snopes.com, a site that investigates urban legends, labeled jenkem's use in America as "undetermined."

    Both the New York Times and the British Broadcasting Corp. have reported jenkem's use among children in Lusaka, Zambia, in the late 1990s.

    And even if someone is doing it stateside, it's not necessarily illegal, Courtney said.

    "It falls into the probables," Courtney said. "Even though it's not illegal, it's part of that experimental thing that people could possibly do to try to get some type of euphoric effect. Why they would want to do this would be beyond us."

    The commentary is all faked on Team Speak/Ventrilo and the deaths were planned. It's funny, but you need to think of it as a sketch, not as anything that's funny because it really happened.

    ^^ yup. Its kind of making fun of all the "nubs" in the game. The room is full of eggs and if you go in there and walk on one, it pops out them lil dragons. Noobs at wow would always go in there (with poor mouse control) and pop out a ton of dragons and get everyone wiped out. That or they would fall into it and instead of taking on for the team and dying, drag all 30 of them up to the group already in combat to kill them all. Leroy there basically ran in, walked over 30 eggs and 30 dragons followed him back to kill everyone.

    The timing on that, however fake, is hilarious.

    New catch phrase? This doo's for you.:D

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    The Leeroy Jenkins thing is legend around school. It was even on the Men's Lacrosse team warm-up cd for our team this past season. Perhaps, the most amazing thing is that he made it to jeopardy:
