    Maybe coconut water or aloe vera gel, I imagine it’d feel weird but probably not regrettable.

    I guess we’ve got to beat Cleopatra as our baseline with her bath of asp milk.

    Marmite would probably veer into the regrettable category, and I’m saying that as a marmite enjoyer

      coconut water

      in a heartbeat

      aloe vera

      I can imagine this feeling really tingly after a while, though not sure why.

      asp milk

      what is this? I googled and found nothing

      marmite

      I too partake joyfully in that hellish sludge, and have wondered what depths of depravity I would willingly go to to satisfy that dark craving

        Wikipedia says donkey milk was used by Cleopatra, not asp milk. Maybe OP meant ass milk and got autocorrected, but that sounds really wrong.

        Ah I got my history slightly wrong, she bathed in donkey milk and just liked asps (a kind of snake)

      You’ve got two Cleopatra stories mixed up there.

      She was said to bathe in ass’s (donkey’s) milk.

      She killed herself by holding an asp (snake) to her breast.
