Don't Drink Mercury!

Just an FYI, the liquid metal MERCURY IS POISON. Do not drink it! Don't order it from the internet. Don't have it around the house. Don't drink when it's in the house. Don't wager a shot of mercury as part of a drinking game. Even if you loose that drinking game, DON'T DRINK THE MERCURY!

Do Not Drink Mercury!



We talked in one of our meetings about a guy from Utah County who, a few months ago, lost a drinking game and drank a shot glass full of mercury (acquired from the internet). His friends took him to the ER after vomiting all night. Some of the mercury from his vomit vaporized and he breathed it in (which is way worse than ingesting it). He died in the hospital a bit later. Good times eh?

Wow. I am in awe that there are such amazing levels of stupidity out there.
