You'd go bananas.

Doesn't it react exothermically with water?

I feel like that wouldn't be a good idea.

I guess one could do worse and consume cesium, that would probably make them explode

Pure potassium would likely lead to apoptosis in the body's cells, or at least severely disrupt sodium/potassium communication channels

You'd turn into the t1000

1. I would laugh hysterically for the rest of the day.

2. Once stopped laughing, call an ambulance.

I loved Chemistry at school, not great at it but i loved the demonstrations.

think your heart would be out of control with imbalanced electrolytes

I need a potassium dealer in my life

I don't think it would even make it to your blood stream; as previously mentioned, in a pure form, the stuff is reactive to water. IDK what the reaction would exactly be, but I don't think your any flesh that makes up your face would approve.

AFAIK, we get potassium that has already been chemically mixed with something else; seems more useful impure.
