You certainly wouldn’t regret it for long

I mean they technically still can pour it down the drain. They just shouldn’t.

Fun fact: acetone is not even that toxic. I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t hurt much more than ethanol.
Remember kids, everything in moderation. You wouldn’t drink 8l of anything

Let’s do none of these kids. This message brought to you by the number “don’t be a fucking stupid” and the CIA. Remember kids, I can’t start foreign wars for oil if I don’t have soldiers!

Remember kids, CIA doesn’t want you to drink acetone!

LD50 is 5,800 mg/kg
I’m kind of surprised it’s that high.

That means the average adult male could have about ~24fl oz/0.74L of acetone and only die half the time
Just dilute it a bit and you got yourself a new drink

Acetone is weird, it’s produced in our bodies and processed with normal metabolic processes. But 5kg still seems like a lot!

It’s so volatile by the time it warms up it all comes out as gas.

I once sterilized a worm-infested flower pot with it. They die at once when touched by a drop of acetone. The plant came out ok.

I was so dehydrated yesterday that I felt like I drank 8L of water. I know it was closer to 2 but god damn it was so good I had to stop myself to breathe half way through.

Be careful doing that. It takes a fair bit of water, but Water Intoxication is a real thing. It can make you quite ill and even be fatal.

It’s extremely unlikely unless you’re doing extreme things like running a marathon or forcing yourself to drink way beyond how thirsty you feel.
