Get the Johnny Brown Pantsmug. Older slang term for Amyl or Butyl nitrate, which used to be sold in sex shops, so-named probably because some people find the chemical has an odor slightly akin to dirty socks. Also called "rush" or "popper." The chemical causes a sudden and dramatic expansion of the blood vessels, creating an intense rush, often followed by a feeling of light-headedness. Often used at raves, and in dancehalls/discos. Very popular with gay men, to increase the intensity of the orgasm. Amyl or Butyl nitrate used in conjunction with drugs intended to correct erectile dysfunction (e.g., Viagra) is potentially fatal.
Amyl nitrate by inhalation (in appropriate quantities, and administered by a physician) acts as an antidote for cyanide poisoning, by causing the body to produce methemoglobin which combines with the cyanide to form nontoxic cyanmethemoglobin.

Get the locker roommug. Primitive humans which lived throughout much of Europe, but particulary in France, and Germany. The term "Neanderthal," derives from the Neanderthal Valley in Germany, where the first fossils were found. Anatomically, they differed from their chief competitors, Cro-Magnon man in that they tended to be more squat, with thicker bones, and brow ridges. They existed through hunter-gathering activities, as did the Cro-Magnon, but seem to have been less technologically innovative, a quality which may have contributed to their ultimate demise.
