Default Throwable Potions

Can you throw a potion at yourself? In other words, are there any differences between potions and throwable potions as far as use on oneself? Thanks in advance.

The only thing is you have to either be in the same room as yourself, or in the room next to yourself to do so. Which translates as YES , you can use them on yourself.

I thought you should be able to use a Throwable Potion on oneself because the language usually reads 'Use at any time...to any living munchkin in your room or an adjacent one.' However, taking everything literally, I am still trying to imagine what it would be like to 'throw' a potion at oneself! This image would make for an interesting cartoon in any reprint of the rules!

You throw it straight up in the air, so that it comes down on your head.

Or, throw it at your feet and breathe in the vapors. . .

I once throw a beer can against a wall and it came back and splattered all over me. Maybe that will help your imagination.

The simple answer to my is, if it’s throwable, that does not imply it has to be thrown. You simple drink it.
