And the new craze is...Condom Snorting.

[jpoon]

Sounds like the perfect activity for fucking morons.

I guess I just kind of have to ask... "Why"?
Also, I buy relatively more expensive than usual condoms (there's a kind I like) and I don't want to waste one just to snort it up my nose on youtube.

It's shock value.

Look at reality TV. Look at celebrities. While people can still be defined by talent, it is much easier to be revered and celebrated through shock and disgust.

That's why this is popular. It's ridiculous that someone would do this. So ridiculous, the watcher sends the video to every person they know. Thus, the person gains popularity.

Hey, my friend does that! He apparently prefers unlubricated condoms because the lubed up ones leave a bad taste in your nose.

The more you know.

A bad "taste" in your nose? Lolwut ?

As far as I know your nose has way more taste buds than your tongue.

When I was eleven or twelve years old, my friends and I came up with the idea to drink Dr. Pepper through our noses... And once I got over the sparkling sensation in my nose, the "taste" of it came through way more intense than if I had just drunk it the regular way.

lol.

I don't even really know where to start with this but I think you might have just won some internets.

and no, the inside of your nose doesn't have taste buds.

it has smell receptors, and most of the "taste" of food (we actually tend to use the word flavour as opposed to taste in this context) is derived from your olfactory structures in your nose. basically you smell food through the back of your throat to get a more nuanced idea of its flavor. The tongue contains binary receptors (they're either on or off) that detect tastes - sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami (the taste of cooked meat). Your tongue can't taste what something is, it just primes the rest of your digestive system with an educated guess as to the chemical makeup required to digest the food you're eating.

So someone puts a party trick on the internets and now everyone is calling the end of the world and handing out darwin awards. Id say "grow up", but this is one of the times that ironically doesn't fit. This is nothing new. I did it once when I was in high school. Someone bought a condom and dared me to do it, so I did. With the exception of it being very uncomfortable and tickling to the nose, nothing happened. No one died, the earth didn't stop moving, and the evolution didn't go backwards. We laughed about it, and then the next class started.

Okay... First they come up with weird things like planking and now something disgusting like this?

What's next? Sniffing a cat's butt? We should call it "cheesing".

Might explaining me what "Planking" is?

OT: It's all fun and games untill someone chokes to death, there's only one place hwere the condom should go but I won't be making an R rated comment.
