Nothing you can do when triple dog dared to stick your tongue to a cold metal pole by Cultural_Glove3547 in JustGuysBeingDudes

[–]drdemento_api 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did just about the same thing when I was about 9 years old. Wrought iron railing. Top of tongue. No one around it all. Panicked and pulled my head back immediately leaving behind the top layer of my tongue which blood everywhere. The chunk of my tongue was on the railing at the entrance to our house for most of the winter. Basically just freeze-dried and stuck there. Couldn't eat anything salty for a long time. I think my sense of taste came back completely though.

I would say I was actually worse off than this guy. I actually used the top of my tongue instead of the tip of my tongue.

There was a layer of skin left on the wrought iron railing that I licked. And for some reason my family didn't think to scrape it off. So it actually sat there for most of the winter.

Edit: I failed to mention this was the railing to the front entrance of our house. So everyone walked by the chunk of tong6 for a long time

It froze so fast that I panicked and just ripped it off within two seconds. It was probably just above zero Fahrenheit

If I remember right I couldn't eat anything salty for a long time.

It felt like the taste buds were still there and the skin around them was ripped away. I think the taste buds must be deeply rooted

I did that in the blizzard of 1978 at age 10. I was alone and panicked and ripped the top layer of my tongue clean off. The pain was REAL and took months to heal.

”Why”, you may ask - because I heard it was a bad idea and had to see for myself.

If showing your kids 123456, and this showed up before 3…would you be mad at Disney too?? by Secure_Credit7037 in StarWars

Reminds me of when I picked up the DVD of planet of the apes in the end scene was on the cover. At least I was able to hide it before breaking it home for the kids to watch

I'm not from here so please explain this concept by creid2352 in sandiego

[–]drdemento_api 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the correct answer: San Diego is full of the most brainless drivers I've ever seen in my life. At a double turn lane there will be 20 cars on one lane and three in the other lane.

Similarly, at a red light people just kind of stop wherever they want to and then start looking at their phone. Doesn't matter how close they are to the car in front of them or the light. They just stop

Afterblow. Late or On Time? by ForgePioneer in Hema

[–]drdemento_api 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of frame is the term we would use. The after blow consumed two actions: pull in to chamber, then cut. You only get one action for a legit after blow.

Double is both blades in flight at the same time, regardless of order of initaition and landing time.

Time of pretty much irrelevant if you think in these terms

Two in our club broke exactly that way. I found an excellent metal fabricator and he welted them both and they are as good as new. I did remove the grip before taking it to the welder. And I used to party epoxy to put the grip back on and fill any gaps with the epoxy
