I would like a team of sociologists and anthropologists to come up with a unified theory as to why Florida is so fucking weird. It's like Southern culture (GA, AL) with even more drugs, plus a certain Je-ne-se-qwassont I can't name.
He believes in the all-knowing old man in the sky but had to stick his tongue on the pole to be convinced that it would stick believing that it would not. He is representative of a large group of humans.
I remember one time as a kid I tried to lick some frost in the freezer. It turns out that rack was metal, and I was stuck. I managed to unsnap the rack and carry it around with me till it warmed back up.

Preferrably yourself. Cup your hand. It's not pretty but if you're alone, that's what you do. I grew up in Sweden and learned the hard way. Don't touch metal with wet parts of your body when it's cold outside.
Hey Elbow, thanks. I decided to go in a different direction therefore made the change. It kind of reflects how I've been feeling about Imgur the last several months. Feels like things have changed; not all for the better. The only reason I'm sticking around is my friends on here and to distract me from the news.
I feel that. You're gettin upvote bombed anyway, cause your post was literally the only thing recent I could find that wasn't news or TikTok reposts. ;p
The new mods deleted two of my posts in recent months, no explanation of tos violation, canned response to my appeals. Post visibility limited (?); damn near impossible to see a post get 2000+ upvotes compared to last spring.
Yarp, that's been happening for several months ever since they outsourced it to a third party company. Posts that are critical of Imgur get deleted without any kind of notification or account strike to link it to. Just poof, gone. Martyn says the product is evolving, though, so that makes it all better.
Imagine you've never experienced snow or cold temps in your life. Then imagine that you've seen stuff like this in movies and it was funny. Then imagine you had a subpar education growing up.
he can say he did it now. Sometimes its worth a little pain to try something new. Now, as someone who did this at age 7 or 8, I would have reccomended he bring some warm (not hot) water to help get himself free
As an ex child who was at one point curious about the taste freezer-fresh ice, the kind that builds up on the walls inside, actually getting the tongue stuck didn't hurt initially beyond my panicked attempt to pull back. By the time my mother's careful hand some hot water set me free my tongue had that dull, achey, persistent pain for a few hours. Aftermath of tongue piercing was way worse and lasted days
The thing about a flagpole is that it's really big, and metal conducts heat fast. So it sucks the heat away from the water making contact. Your flesh doesn't have that same conductivity, and can't warm it faster than it takes heat away. And there's a lot of it, and cold air around it, to absorb heat.
A spoon out of the freezer will warm up faster, being smaller, and is surrounded by warm on all sides. Get it cold enough and it'll do the same thing, but the frozen spot will melt pretty fast.
Remember kids, if you plan to stick your tongue to a metal object in sub-zero temperatures, you'll want a warm beverage on hand to pour on the contact point to unstick yourself without ripping or tearing anything.
Yep, I was in the process of proving this as a 5 year old, but the other kids and the teacher panicked and actually pushed my face up against the pole, then finally got a cup of warm water. They wouldn't listen to my description of what I was doing.
Sadly, can confirm because at one point I was a teenager susceptible to double dog dares. On the other hand don't panic, do not pull, just warm up the metal you're attached to.

A sure-fire way to unstick your tongue from a frozen pole is to have someone pee on it.

it's not just for jellyfish anymore!
Mosquito bite? Here, lemme pee on it.

I'm willing to bet money that the big, out of place tattoo he has at the corner of his eye, he calls it a gravy boat.

That's probably not even the worst decision he made that day!!!

I see a man that makes decisions, and doesn't spend the rest of his life regretting them

It's like Dolce & Gabbana bumper stickers that he put on his face.

Or maybe made some bad ones in the past and learned, but either way he seems like a cool dude now
OhJesus

He may be learning from them, but he sure as hell hasn't stopped making bad decisions.

Wait! You can't jump from a double dog dare to a triple dog dare!!
This is a breach of protocol!
From a double dog dare, you have to challenge a triple dare, first! Only then can you challenge a triple dog dare!

Believing what intelligent people say or believing people who actually know what they are talking about runs contrary to this man's entire existence.

Oh lord does this hurt. You are literally pulling off the skin of your tongue.

Ill be honest Im kind of curious to know how bad does it hurt but I don't want to get germs on my tong soooooo

I've gotten my tongue stuck to popsicles like this before; it hurts a lot!

Put a spoon in a freezer for a day and try with that.
Tyrrlin
When I ripped the skin of my tongue off, it had been stuck for so long it was numb. When mom had me gargle with peroxide- THAT hurt like a bitch.
Redshadow09
Does it really work?

I was told that it does work, but on a smaller scale and for a few moments

ill try it out. A whole day?

Or you can just rip the skin of your tongue off like I did when I was eight. BEFORE I saw A Christmas Story.

Close your hands over the spot, lean close - don't let your lips touch the pole (bonk) - and exhale a few times.

Great, now my hands are stuck, too.
