Can I Put it in my Ass?

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

My first thought was "why is nitrogen dangerous?" but I was thinking about it at room temperature or around 20C.
I know about decompression sickness (the bends) but I wouldn't expect that to be a problem at 1 atmosphere. Then I stumbled upon isobaric counterdiffusion and I wondered if that could happen from pumping any pure gas into the rectum at atmospheric pressure, since it'd be at a higher partial pressure than any gas in the tissue.
Yeah I think gasses in the rectum have several severe issues that liquids don't have. Mostly because liquids don't exert pressure. Could get pretty in-depth.
