    I doubt blood flies out of your throat when drinking peroxide.

  2. Crovo says:

    H2O2, aka. Hydrogen Peroxide.. deadly

  3. Kenny says:

    Blood wouldn’t fly out, all that would happen is it would start to kill your cells. That is why we normally have the enzyme Catalase to break it down into H2O and O.

    • LeProll says:

      You would foam as some catalase would do its job. So not blood, but foam, which imo would be cooler. AND just to get balance nazi, 2H202 = 2H2O + O2.

    • Ben says:

      Pure peroxide (aka HTP or high test peroxide) is an entirely different beast from your more common 30% cleaning grade or 60% lab grade. Stuff bursts into flame in contact with it. It’s not going to start to kill your cells; a whole bunch of stuff will be dead instantly, and if you spill it on your hair or clothes they are liable to spontaneously combust.

      I’ve not seen someone try to drink it, and I hope not to.

  4. OLUT says:

    You shouldn’t drink peroxide. It’ll make your hair turn white and your tan go away!

  5. Hood says:

    i almost didn’t get it but then i noticed the “too” Clever.

  6. H2O2 actually does miracles in small amounts.

  7. TheSolx says:

    I didn’t get it at first, but when I did, I shat brix

  8. Zerahl says:

    ^ fixed
    I don’t always get subtle science jokes
    but when I do, I sh*t bricks.

  9. JMP's says:

    This is copied from a different website called XKCD!

  10. Orly says:

    I didn’t get the joke then figured it was because auto-translating in my head ruined it…

  11. psarae says:

    That’s what happens when you don’t take any english courses in college and end up waiting tables.

  12. Bytemeister says:

    Peroxisomes for the win.

    • LeProll says:

      Maybe go looking somewhere else to try to make yourself smart with a pointless comment on a long dead image.
