The whipped cream bit was worth my annual membership fee.
Want to save MORE life wreckage than banning ReddiWhip to under 18’s?
Try Arizona Iced Tea, Skittles and Robitussin DM.
Don’t ask me how I know. BTW, you really don’t need the Skittles and the Iced tea, FWIW.
No, this segment isn’t really a joke, and yes the new law is designed, I’m pretty sure at least, to prevent kids from huffing the propellant (Nitrous Oxide, N2 O if I recall correctly) in whipped cream cans to get high. It really is rather innocuous as there is a small percentage naturally found in the atmosphere, so that we are actually breathing a little with every breath, without doing any known harm. Where the harm in the law may show up is in far more major crimes of stealing high pressure N2 O cylinders out of dental offices and gas supply warehouses, where it can then be obtained on a dangerously concentrated level that if not properly dispensed can easily result in the high-pressure blowing somebodies’ lungs up or asphyxiating them because their supply system was not providing adequate breathable oxygen at the same time! Just sayin’ is all.
The recidivism would end if Californians would exercise their inalienable right to keep and bear arms at all times regardless of the laws claiming unconstitutional authority banning such possession. Bear them with the willingness to use them when necessary.
Thanks for the laughs, Bill! This was an excellent segment!
I was once on a panel of scientists for some Boy Scout sponsored science event and one of the fellows on the panel was a toxicologist. I asked him about Nitrous Oxide, which is the propellant in whipped cream and also commonly referred to as laughing gas. He told me that it is NOT toxic and does not have any harmful cumulative effects even if used over a long period of time.
Passing around a can of whipped cream among a small group of friends is actually great fun and leaves no hangover. Cheap, safe and lots of fun. That’s why they banned it.
It’s weird, I’ve had to almost beg to have whipped cream involved in my personal life. Herb Albert’s “Whipped Cream and Other Delights” album cover got me through puberty, so I’d flat out have had to move from NYC if it had been outlawed at the time.
Oh, man I remember that Album cover. Agree completely.
For those who don’t recall it. . .
NYC’s ban on whipped cream cans to youngsters is only marginally more stupid than their ban on Big Gulp sodas. Nanny stateism is a mental disease.
kids want to mutilate themselves and end their gene pool just think of all the money saved .
