FTFA:

While almost all the cases involved children - the youngest was a 10-month-old - the center did receive a call from one 45-year-old who had ingested glow-stick fluid, Banerji said.

The liquid itself is non-toxic.

What'll get you is the glass fragments inside.

You never go full retard. Damn it...now I'm really curious. Was the 45-year-old mentally handicapped, or just an idiot who did it on a dare?

Part of my costume this year was a Erlenmeyer flask with glow-stick solution and dry ice, so I looked up what was in them, in case I got so hammered I was unable to tell my left from my right hand and drank from the wrong glass. While not toxic, the gel can be dangerous and cause problems, and it is definitely not something you want in you.

So I stayed up all night injecting tarantula eggs and weaponized ebola into Fun-Size Three Musketeers bars for nothing? I could have just handed out glowsticks?

Nothing says tasty like a strange glowing liquid.

At least some of the damn ravers are smart enough to call Poison Control.

"Hello, Poison Control Center? Uh, yeah, my KID swallowed some glowstick fluid and I wanna make sure I'm not...errr, my kid isn't gonna die."

*grinds teeth*

*swigs water*

This is why I could never work at a poison control center. If a damn adult called saying he'd been drinking glow stick juice I'd be telling them that a mixture of bleach and ammonia is tasty.

/it's not tasty people

Yes, 43 calls mostly from worried mommies and daddies who thought their snowflake may have ingested some of the fluid after chewing on glow sticks is indicative of the collective intelligence of 308 million Americans.

No doubt. I'm trying to think of all the stupid things I've done while drunk, and drinking something not fit for human consumption doesn't make the list.

The several times I've had to call poison control the operators wouldn't say anything more than "call 911", even for the most basic call.

Wow. 1/303,000,000 is a helluva representation of the collective "dumbness" of America.
