The thing that fascinates me about "party pills" is how gloriously inconsistent people are about the stuff they put into their bodies.
At one extreme they demand total disclosure (Danger! May contain traces of nuts; Danger! May contain hot liquid; Danger! May contain GM; Danger! May not be "organic") and exhaustive population-based studies about efficacy (but not tested on animals, mind), and also want mind-altering substances like tobacco and alcohol banned or regulated.
Yet at the other extreme they are quite happy to "pop" completely unregulated products, such as "party pills" and potions that cousin Kylie's brother Wayne (who failed School C science) has boiled up at the back of his garage. After all, it's impossible/immoral to participate in a "party" without some sort of chemically-induced stimulation, init?
