Guy and girl are hanging out. Decide to get smashed on gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), a CNS depressant of historical medical use that is currently used as a recreational drug, as a date rape drug, and by bodybuilders looking to boost their endogenous production of human growth hormone. Bodybuilders are so weird.
At some point during their GHB-fueled escapades, eighteen of the girl's teeth are extracted from her mouth with a pair of pliers. Not one, not two, but eighteen. Molars, incisors, canines, nothing was spared. The paramedics found a friggin' bowl of teeth when they arrived.

Yet again I became distracted the other day, this time by that 'Jaws' photo. The previous article is required reading. Thanks to everyone who provided comments, and had a go at identifying the carcass. While many people suggested 'short-faced dog', a cat identification seems to have been more…
A colleague and grad student of mine, Rob, just sent me the following question, slightly edited here:

Hmm... I'm with Mr. Gunn. Let's just say I went through an "experimental" adolescence. They must have had a cocktail of drugs or did an ass-load of GHB. I've seen some bad trips but never anything remotely close to involving self-extraction of teeth. Sheesh.
Clearly, they had other problems. Have they been able to rule out the use of other drugs? From what I understand about it, which is quite a bit, it's not the kind of thing that would derange you to that extent.
Classic title! I love it.

Ouch! No wonder it's a date rape drug. I wonder if she was unconscious or so stupidly messed up she thought it was funny or just the right thing to do. Unbelievable.
Holy cow. That's really awful, in a creepy-crawly, I-just-lost-my-appetite-for-lunch way.
