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.
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.
Yep, alcohol is definitely delicious. Getting drunk is fun too sometimes sure... but often I quite decide not to have another beer because despite wanting more of the flavor, I don't want more of the effects.
Worked in a brewery where they canned it on contract. As part of my job I supported the quality dept, and part of that was going to the daily tasting panel to sign off on the day's production.
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.
You're just stalling now.
inconceivable!
A glass of mercury, it looks like it tastes delicious.

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.
"Hey Dad, can I get the everlasting pill when you're done with it?"
"Check back in a few hours."
🤢

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.
Cody's lab has entered the chat
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 😂
Dropped open to eat another tide pod
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.
So do I die of obesity then?
I want to lick The Elephant's Foot.
This is an interesting one!
8 kilos of molten gold.
???
Profit
Nobody said you wouldn't have to pay for it ; ).
I would see what the big deal with heroine is
Heroin*
Heroine is the feminine form of hero
He said what he said!
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.
One of those poisonous dart frogs
I heard some poisonous mushrooms are very tasty...
I mean you don't need invulnerability to find out, you just gotta choose wisely, since you only get one shot.
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
Totally. Seem them everywhere, and they're so cute. Would be great to just munch them, buttered on toast...
Plutonium
Specifically weapons-grade plutonium, enough to make a nuclear bomb. I get to keep it afterwards, right?
Monster.
Four Loko, the official drink of poor decisions.
I was paid to drink that stuff for a few years...I'd never do it for free, let alone pay for it.
Where you on clinical trials or something?
Hahaha almost!

Sodium! Looks so soft and fun, melts in your mouth!
Sodium!
Lead. It used to be used for flavor.
My worst enemy. I get a full stomach and less of a nuisance to worry about.
I bet hemlock is delicious.
New bars of soap always looked tasty to me.
A bar of soap probably.
Anthrax
A cold glass of milk.
Where my lactards at?!?!
Whatever psychedelic supposedly broadens your mind or whatever
Whatever the most poisonous mushroom is
Probably amanita phalloides or amanita virosa
a shitload of absinthe
I’ve always hoped a shot of petrol “could” be delicious. Spicy, dry and with deep earthy undertones…
Sugar
