    Why don't you try it?

  7. Yah definitely a expired poision can kill you because it can be more deadly after expiration.Ofcourse some dont.

  8. If you drink expired poison, it will most likely kill you faster, seeing as its expired, and also I have a question for you. Are you committing suicide, because I dont want to be arrested for assisted suicide?

    Yes.

    Poisons don't have an expiration date. Expiration dates tell you if the chemical no longer works or if it is harmful at a certain point. Because the ladder has no meaning in the condition that it's a poison, the expiration date, on a poison, must mean its effects are neutral and thus invalidates its purpose. Because the ultimate, or worst possible purpose of poison is to kill you, degrading it must AT least mean you won't be killed. Logically.

    if you have courage to die then you have enough courage to live. Dont waste your life on some stupid reason.
    i believe that if you are destined to die then no one can save u and if your not, what ever u do, u cant die.

  15. Yes, poison is deadly no matter how old it is. In fact it is probably more poison after expiration

  16. poison can expire?

  17. You have a very broad question there. (Poison) is a term that encompasses a vast range of items. Some get more deadly others less. For instance Clorine can be quite toxic to a human and is therefore classified as a poison but since it also evaporates in the air after a while you will not have any Chlorine left in a certain vial. Or take Iodine for instance very leathal if taken internally but since it sublimates (Goes from solid to gas) it will even leave a closed container and after a while you will have nothing left. While others break down into components that can be more deadly. Then you have to also consider how does your body metabolize poisons. For instance some "poisons" aren't actually toxic until you body tries to break them down. Such is the case of antifreeze. While talking with a doctor I was working with he stated that since the liver can only metabolize one poison at a time if you give it another poison to metabolize such as alcohol it will work on the alcohol and leave the antifreeze and while that is happening it is excreted by your kidneys unmetabolized and therefore not poisonous to you.

  18. LOL I saw this and couldn't resist answering. I'm guessing if it doesn't kill you right away, you'll probably die a very slow death (a week or something) and be in total agony, or just have a near death experience while again being in a lot of pain.
