Blue lights coming soon to your local Starbucks

[Clubber Lang]

A handful of convenience stores and supermarkets are experimenting with an unusual strategy: Installing blue lights in bathrooms in order to quell drug usage by making it more difficult for people to inject themselves. The theory is that drug users, who often use the privacy of bathroom stalls to shoot up heroin and other drugs, would have difficulty finding their veins.

I first saw those on the Sydney harbor ferry to Manly back in 2001. Makes it harder to see where you are pissing also.

Oh, I thought you were referring to "blue lights" like that used to see blood and semen on the walls and floors, or to identify bedbugs.

My bad.

Makes it a lot easier to see your coke though, won't miss a grain of it.
