If you want to successfully toasterbath, you have to plug into a non-gfci protected circuit (the ones with the button that says test monthly that you have never tested).
If you want to make sure, get a 220V extension cord if you’re in the US and run it to the laundry room or kitchen. Higher voltage is generally more effective.
That said, if you’re seriously considering this, please talk to someone. Life is worth living.
If you really want to electrocute yourself, pop the cover off your breaker panel, and grab the main line coming in to the breaker box. Home service is 200A in most cases, and the individual circuits are going to be less than that before the breaker pops. 200A at 240v (I think?) without a breaker or fuse to blow is more than enough to electrocute you.

Right. Does plugging an extension cord into the gfci protected outlet really circumvent that protection though?
No, not really. I think people are suggesting that the extension is used with a different outlet.
No that would be to plug in to another room that isn’t required to have GFCI.
Yup, like bedrooms.
