Robo Trippin'

                    Is it a dance? Is it a genre of techno? No and no. It is on the news though. 

                   

                  So apparently it seems that some teenagers are so desperate to get high now that they are using cough medicine from their houses and over dosing on it. They call it "robo" from robitussin (cough medicine). And trippin is self explanatory. Now, this has

been going on for a while now. Lots of people knew about it. Now, out of no where, 

the news decides to pick this up as though this is a new fad, and they haven't even told 

us anything most people don't already know, except its official name.

  Now the saddest part to me is (for starters) some teenagers are so desperate 

to either get high, get attention, and or fit in that they are turning to their medicine  

cabinets and over dosing on something as simple as cough syrup. Now the second 

saddest thing is that other people are seeing these videos and actually following! You'd

think they would see the flaw for intelligence in the concept and not try it. But instead

they see the humor, and the popularity. And they know that people will say "wow, you

actually did that!?!" and they know it will win them what they want the most. Attention.

They won't recognize that thats what they really want at first, but they'll see it 

eventually. It is just simply unwise and ridiculous. Anther poor aspect of this is the

amount of people following and how easy it is to both get high on normal medicine

for them and watch videos of it. If you went to youtube right now and type in "robo

trippin" you'll find dozens of videos capturing the chronicle of these kids doing this. 

Sad, but true. Well thats my interesting story of the day.

uhh, crack is whack!
