SippyCup@feddit.nl 1 day agoEvidently plutonium just tastes metallic. And radium is flavorless.
What I’m saying is people have tasted these things.
I think it was when we got to toxic metals and radioactive elements that chemists where forced to stop tasting their discoveries.
I hope it went: Safety person: Hey! Stop tasting any elements or new molecules. It’s been getting people severely sick or killed!
Chemist: “Ugh, fine, but ima bitch about it the whole time”
I believe the guy who tasted plutonium did so accidentally when the powder got in his mouth. The metallic taste probably has something to do with how radioactive it is.
Or the fact that it’s, y’know, a metal
idk man. the tins I’m drinking out of don’t really ‘taste metallic’, whereas when I got shot up with radioactive elements, I definitely described it as “having a metallic taste in my mouth”.
(Oh and the answer is ‘radiology’ — shooting people up with radioactive elements is literally everyday stuff. There’s a whole branch of medicine about it; “nuclear medicine.”)
It’s coincidentally when we started getting radiation poisoning. Correlation? Causation? The younger generation is so weak smh.
I can still huff them though, right? How else will I know when my reaction is done?
What about butt-chugging them?
