      The one I remember from school was phrased slightly differently (but same concept) :

      Poor little Jimmy is lying on the floor, for what he thought was H2O was H2SO4

      Two chemists enter a bar. One orders a glass of H2O. The other chemist says I’ll have a glass of H2O too. He bleached his throat and died.

          I mean, drinking it (well tasting) used to be the legit way of testing it.

        How do you know it tastes like piss if you’ve never tasted piss before?

        Better piss in a cup and taste it to make sure we get a nice baseline.

      Well, you could say beer is yeast piss.

      I’ll have another (lab brewed yeast piss. From malted grain. Sometimes with hops)

      lab grade ethanol

      That’s usually methylated spirit. It probably won’t kill you, but you’ll lose your vision.

        methylated spirits are the ones used for cleaning, lab grade ethanol needs to be just ethanol or some reactions might fail, however in some badly managed labs you might find mislabeled stuff and have contaminants

        still, you shouldn’t drink it anyways, as some producers use the highly carcinogenic benzene to make pure 100% ethanol, as distillation with water can only get you up to the 95,6% azeotrope, and some benzene might make it’s way in the product

          I see. I’ve only used ethanol for disinfection, and it was always methylated.
