Today's Question

Okay, help out the old fogey ... what are roofies?

And was the "Red Roofies" a jab at Red Roof Inns?

The technical name is Rophynol (sp?), aka the "date rape pill". It's tasteless and odorless. I think it was originally made for hospital patients, but is now used for evil. Basically, a guy would slip it in an unsuspecting girl's drink (most likely at a frat party). She goes out like a light, and he can have his way with her. When she wakes up, she remembers nothing. Sometimes the girl wakes up in between but are just way too out of it to fight back. So it just seems like a weird, horrible nightmare.

Roofies are a slang term for the drug Rohypnol, which is also called the "date rape" drug. Someone who takes it is supposed to black out and have amnesia for a couple of hours. They wake up and never even remember what happened.

Don't know... but I really doubt it.

"Roofies" are the date rape drug. Dates often drug their girlfriend/boyfriend and then rape them. ========================

It's the layman's term for Rohypnol...a drug often used by men to rape women...
