It's also similarly great for killing braincells when auto-applied orally

No. You're thinking of ethyl alcohol. If you ingest isopropyl alcohol you're gonna have a bad day.

Oh and make sure the label on the ethyl alcohol does not contain the word "DENATURED." That's code for "tastes like shit and makes you sick."

Isopropanol is relatively safe to drink in small amounts (single digit mL). It's only about 2x stronger than ethanol, and your liver metabolizes it to acetone, which is safe.

Denatured alcohol contains methanol, which is way more dangerous since you metabolise it to formaldehyde.
