Joke's on you. I've been slowly building up an immunity to iocaine powder for years.
Clearly, you have a dizzying intellect.
So I obviously cannot choose the wine in front of me.
inconceivable!
You're just stalling now.
A glass of mercury, it looks like it tastes delicious.
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.
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.
I’m curious how it feels to drink something that heavy
I imagine afterwards you'd just sit and reflect.
Seems like it would sit pretty heavy, though...
Nah, it goes down real smooth.

Sitting down with a good movie and a bowl of tide pods.
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?
The effects is what makes it delicious, no effects means no upside to drinking the poison
You haven't changed my mind, but now I'm mildly concerned about you and I'm here if you need help.

Does lava count as poisonous
By the power granted to me by no one in particular:
I'll allow it.
How about uranium? It's called radiation poisoning...
Also do I have to procure it first?
1 gram of uranium has about 20 billion calories so while you might not die, you're gonna get fat super fast.

I want to lick The Elephant's Foot.
This is an interesting one!
One of those poisonous dart frogs
I would see what the big deal with heroine is
If you don't experience any of the reprocussions, would it even do anything?
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
Fugu. I’m far too much of a coward to try it normally.
Red paint. No. Blue paint. Which ever one smells better.
Plutonium
Specifically weapons-grade plutonium, enough to make a nuclear bomb. I get to keep it afterwards, right?
The fly agaric mushroom. I wanna see if it makes me taller.
You can eat those if you prepare them correctly. Prepare for a cozy experience if you dose it right. shroomery

I bet hemlock is delicious.
Lead. It used to be used for flavor.
My worst enemy. I get a full stomach and less of a nuisance to worry about.
New bars of soap always looked tasty to me.
a shitload of absinthe
A bar of soap probably.
I’ve always hoped a shot of petrol “could” be delicious. Spicy, dry and with deep earthy undertones…
