Sorry about that Jersey. By "added CS," I meant the addition of the secondary irritant, instead of solely using capsaicinoids like most pepper sprays. CS is an abbreviation for 2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile (the tear gas compound). When used in canisters, deployed as a smoke/aerosol, it's sometimes called "CS Gas."

Re: Pick me out a stun gun (don't judge me)
I got a good blast of CS gas once. It’s used in military training as a safe but noticeable simulator for war gases. I got lazy about keeping my trench walls straight, got my gas mask snagged on something at just the wrong time, and learned what it was like. It would have discouraged me from chasing someone, all right. It makes it hard to breathe. Or rather, you can still breathe, but breathing doesn’t seem to help. You keep gasping and it keeps not working.
I was a teenager before it was cool.

It would be impossible for me to not panic in a situation like that. The simulated suffocation would send my claustrophobia off the deep end.Physics Guy wrote: ↑Fri Aug 22, 2025 4:14 pmI got a good blast of CS gas once.

I don’t have claustrophobia, but I still wasn’t really calm at the time.

It means the same thing it did the first two times you asked me that. Use your googler and get away from me.Dr. Shades wrote: ↑Fri Aug 22, 2025 12:57 pmDoes “AMZ” mean “Amazon.com?”Jersey Girl wrote: ↑Thu Aug 21, 2025 6:04 am1. I've got the Vipertek VTS-880 sitting in my AMZ cart.

Alternatively it can also mean: Absolute Moron that I met on Z couple of decades ago who can't stop trolling his own board.
