That is a shotgun shell loaded with allergy medicine. In the US many people reload their own shotgun shells. If you put rock salt instead of lead shot it is less-than-lethal...sorta. Some put in weirder stuff like nails, etc. Americans are funny like that.
Break into my home, you're gonna be crammed full of whatever I think is funny.
🤣 you shoulda seen the look on his face when I blasted gummy bears into his ballsack after he broke into my house.
aka, "gunny bears"
The Taofledermaus channel on YouTube is a lovesong to that tenet for over 10 years.
just wait till you learn about cannons!
Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

Thank you for explaining this. As a non-USian I had no idea what was going on.

what do I need to know to understand this?
I think you need to be American. It is funny how the Americans are busy explaining the drug to you, but failing to understand that it is the underlying premise that most non-Americans won't get.
Yeah I didn't get that that was a shotgun shell I thought it was a film canister.
Also every antihistamine I've ever seen has been a tiny little round thing, those are huge

my first thought was force feeding, but i do hope nobody force feeds nails to home intruders over there, so my second thought was uhhh, some sort of gun that shoots whatever you put in it? but would pills even work if someone uh, shot you with them? i'm pretty sure all pills are designed to need processing by our digestive track
All of the Oxy 80's that have been railed or smoked over the years would like a word.

Benadryl is a brand name of diphenhydramine, an antihistamine with a powerful side effect of drowsiness. Benadryl is labeled as an allergy relief medication but the same drug is sold under other brands such as Sominex as a sleep aid. Effects of overdosing on diphenhydramine include seizures, extreme drowsiness, excessive sleepiness, delirium, and hallucinations.

The translucent object packed with several of the pills is a shotgun shell. The text refers to the practice of reloading shotgun shells with other objects in an attempt to alter their lethality and/or pain potential. A shell loaded with rock salt for example, salt is much lighter than lead so it should have less stopping/penetrating power, but any wounds caused are automatically salted.
any wounds caused are automatically salted
I'm a little disappointed in myself that I didn't think it'd work like that.
The idea behind a rock salt shell is it would be less likely to kill and more likely to HURT. Also possibly less likely to damage anything behind. You might take a little paint off the fridge but not destroy it.
Whether that's actually how it works or not, call Adam and Jamie.

The salt load has an added benefit of temporarily incorporeating ethereal beings.

Something important that people aren't really mentioning is that you can use salt-filled shotgun shells in a home defense situation to reduce collateral damage caused by the shotgun pellets penetrating through walls (idk what the nails are for, I'd assume something similar)

There's an upper limit to how much benadryl you should take in a sitting if you don't want to breach the stratosphere
It's an allergy medicine that's also used as a sedative, put into a shotgun shell.
In higher doses it can cause dissasociation, delerium, hallucinations, etc.
Does this count as chemical warfare?
Not "chemical warfare," but maybe in the same genre of "chemical fuck you" as mace/pepper spray.
IIRC those are chemical warfare. They're use is not regulated on civilians, but they're banned for use in war.
mace/pepper spray is illegal in a lot of the world
I wouldn’t be using brand-name Benadryl for that unless it was expired. This clearly calls for the Kirkland Select store brand from Costco!
Only the best for guests!
Dollar tree diphenhydramine buckshot. Instead of the hat man, you meet the coat hanger dwarf.
That's just Benadryl, but cheaper.
At least you found a way to cut down on ammo costs.
Oh, it's a shell casing
"Say hello to my little friend!" I scream as I introduce the intruders to the hat man.
Fun fact, Benadryl is actually a fairly powerful local anesthetic. You can pack it into a wound before applying sutures and it is almost as effective as lidocaine. So basically, shooting someone with a benadryl load is probably a bit counterproductive and might just make angry zombies.
Careful with this info. Diphenhydramine can cause nerve damage if at too high a concentration: 5 parts whatever to 1 part Benadryl is the typical dilution for local anesthetics.

home intruder has severe allergies.
he says thanks
you need quite lot of benadryl to cause deleriant reaction.
Even though it makes no sense, all I could figure out for this was that they were hiding something valuable in a container of benedryl so burglars wouldn't find it, instead of hiding it in a box of rock salt or a box of nails.
It's a shotgun shell. People sometimes load them up with rock salt and nails for home defense, even though bird and buckshot will do the trick.
This person loaded the shell up with benadryl, which will cause hallucinations when taken in higher quantities.
I abused it a few times as a teenager, and it was really shitty every time. Someone told me that you can see the air by abusing Welbutrin as well, so naturally I tried that too. You can absolutely see the air, but it also makes you feel like you have a brain tumor.
