Joke's on you. I've been slowly building up an immunity to iocaine powder for years.

[-] midori@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Clearly, you have a dizzying intellect.

[-] PoorYorick@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

So I obviously cannot choose the wine in front of me.

[-] Soulcreator@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

inconceivable!

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

You're just stalling now.

A glass of mercury, it looks like it tastes delicious.

[-] Tartymctang@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago

Sooo elemental mercury. Not absorbed well in the GI tract. I had a patient who took time cracking open thermometers from boilers for a while and then attempted to drink it mixed with some coffee to commit suicide. We show up since he called 911 and now wanted to go to the hospital. Call poison control for recommendations for local hospitals since this isn't common and i don't know what hospitals can handle this thing. Poison control cites that it isn't well absorbed, if at all, in the GI tract. I was pretty surprised.

So really you could drink it and find out the taste with very small if any repercussions.

Ya know, just saying.

Didn't uh.. something like Lewis and Clarke..

Didn't they use mercury based laxatives, and that was used to track their path?

Should have used an everlasting pill if they didn't want to be tracked by their poop.

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

a single pill would serve a whole family during their lives

"Hey Dad, can I get the everlasting pill when you're done with it?"

"Check back in a few hours."

🤢

Yeah elemental mercury ain't that bad. It's all those organic compounds of mercury that are the baddies.

And.... you know, shiny poops that hit the bottom of the bowl with a THUNK , that would be something different. You'd literally lose a few pounds every time you went to the toilet.

[-] DirigibleProtein@aussie.zone 13 points 10 months ago

I’m curious how it feels to drink something that heavy

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 13 points 10 months ago

I imagine afterwards you'd just sit and reflect.

Seems like it would sit pretty heavy, though...

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

Nah, it goes down real smooth.

[-] witty_username@feddit.nl 6 points 10 months ago

Cody's lab has entered the chat

Sitting down with a good movie and a bowl of tide pods.

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

You might be happy to know, my mouth literally dropped open when I read your comment 😂

I mean... alcohol? You can already buy it easily prepared in all sorts of delicious ways.

Am I not in the spirit of the thing?

Does lava count as poisonous

[-] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 22 points 10 months ago

By the power granted to me by no one in particular:

I'll allow it.

[-] Ziglin@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

How about uranium? It's called radiation poisoning...

Also do I have to procure it first?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

1 gram of uranium has about 20 billion calories so while you might not die, you're gonna get fat super fast.

Nobody said you wouldn't have to pay for it ; ).

I would see what the big deal with heroine is

[-] morphballganon@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Heroin*

Heroine is the feminine form of hero

[-] diffcalculus@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

He said what he said!

[-] Khrux@ttrpg.network 4 points 10 months ago

If you don't experience any of the reprocussions, would it even do anything?

[-] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

You would probably get high but have the incredibly painful withdrawal symptoms.

Granted, the euphoria alone would probably incentivize you to try it again anyway, so I still wouldn't

[-] TheMongoose@kbin.social 12 points 10 months ago

Fugu. I’m far too much of a coward to try it normally.

[-] Jakdracula@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Red paint. No. Blue paint. Which ever one smells better.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

One of those poisonous dart frogs

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago

You can eat those if you prepare them correctly. Prepare for a cozy experience if you dose it right. shroomery

Specifically weapons-grade plutonium, enough to make a nuclear bomb. I get to keep it afterwards, right?

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago

Lead. It used to be used for flavor.

Sodium! Looks so soft and fun, melts in your mouth!

[-] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

My worst enemy. I get a full stomach and less of a nuisance to worry about.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

I bet hemlock is delicious.

[-] serpineslair@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

New bars of soap always looked tasty to me.
