Aspirin is good for you!

No, it’s you who “haven’t clue”. There is a 100% guarantee - definitely in that case.
And you need a lot of skills in knife and anatomy - to drop a line with a knife on the right side of the neck, yeah. At least one must be a surgeon to be able to do it looooooooool.[/quote]

Cut a lot of throats, then, have you? Oh wait, you yourself said you aren’t a pro regarding suicides. So you’re just making stuff up on a topic you know nothing about. I do know a thing or two about it, but if you’re really silly enough to go on believing that slitting your own throat is easy and painless, hey, don’t let someone who actually knows better tell you otherwise.

Not really. You’d need to ingest an unrealistic amount for it to do anything more than make you sick. Taking too much of any medication should at the very least give you an effect similar to food poisoning, though.

Yeah, you do a couple suicides. Stop this nonsence, plz.

If you don’t see any difference between troat and arteria, it’s not my problem.

Uh…could…could we get off the whole topic of suicide and methods of how to do it?

I had a family member euthanise themself. They were counselled by a group called Exit International on the hypoxia method, which was developed by a physician and voluntary euthanasia expert called Philip Nitschke. But none of this means anything to you, because you’re just some fool kid who thinks recommending cutting your throat as a suicide method makes you sound badass. Perhaps some day you’ll realise how irresponsible such a thing is.

Locating your own carotid arteries is not considerably hard, just do some excercise and it will be pretty easy to pinpoint its location with a reasonable accuracy (well at least for suicide purposes). Now as to how easy it is to have the will to drive a knife through it I really have no Idea, and I really don’t feel inclined to find out, but If you have a knife of considerable size and make a decent swing, it would probably not be hard to severe both it and the jugular in the same strike . However I seriously doubt that suicide by exsanguination is the nice and painless way to go.

[size=14pt]But seriously stop this stupid conversation. [/size] And stop fighting about it.

Yeah. Hits a little too close to home seeing people use suicide as a platform for trying to act hard. No point arguing about it here. Pardon my digression, please.

The calculation circulating around is extremely wrong, by several orders of magnitude. I am not sure how anyone got that result.

Wikipedia says 500mg/kg is very life threatening, which is 0.5g/kg. Assuming a weight of 80kg that would make it 40g (not 1kg!).

In short: There really should be some side effects to extreme usage.

Excuse the double post, but here a bit more math:

According to wikipedia adverse side effects start at 150mg/kg. The standard aspirin dosage in the US is 325mg per tablet. In accordance you would have to take roughly half the amount of your weight in kg for those effects to show.

So if the cataclysm survivor weights 80kg, about 40 pills would result in vomiting, nausea and dizziness. Double that if you want to encounter life threatening effects.

I hope it is you, and other people, who will realise some day, that you should lynch people like this Philip Nitschke as fast, as only learn about them - that’s what it mean for me.
As for another - I still insist on my opinion, becouse it’s 100% guaranteed, fast and painless way.

I am absolutely sure that the person firmly decided to commit suicide, finds the will to swing a knife.
Even a strong swing of knife is not needed if it is sharpened sharply.

So, if it 100% guaranteed, and even if you near some hospital there is very small chance that surgeon can save you before you bleed to death - so, so maybe you should not do it?

Yeah, I’m sure this amount of aspirin is closer to reality than 1 kilogram.
I heard gastric bleeding are not uncommon for those, who take aspirin regularly, and I doubt that they eat it at least 100 grams.

Your ignorance is astounding. That, or you’re just trolling for a reaction. Either way, argument is wasted on a childlike mind.

I had the same reaction. “Kill people by lynch mobs” for suggesting a way to painlessly end your own life. So… suggesting suicide is bad? Murder is good? I guess you got all mad at south park for them suggesting telemarketers should kill themselves.

[size=14pt]Can we end this conversation and STOP these arguments, PLEASE!?!?[/size]

It’s starting to get on my (and probably several others’) nerves, has absolutely nothing to do with the proposed negative side-effects of aspirin in-game, and does not help those who are viewing this and could potentially be dealing with depression. If it doesn’t end and get back on topic soon, there is likely going to be some serious reaction by Glyph or Kevin to the arguments.

Yes, from evidence provided with real life research, there should be some minor side-effects from consuming a ludicrous amount of aspirin; possibly just vomiting and other temporary effects for the time being.

No, it’s you who “haven’t clue”. There is a 100% guarantee - definitely in that case.

idk, i think humanity owes us for this one. :slight_smile:

Now I’m always going to remember that one time we had a huge conversation about the downsides and applications of aspirin on this forum.

Minor for a ludicrous amount? Hardly. It would kill you.

A lower but still large overdose would cause you to bleed all over the place if you got cut.

The game is a bit too lenient about overdosing on painkillers altogether, really.

Yeah but how much of it is needed to kill you?
