Just when I think humanity has reached peak levels of stupid, I see something like this.
According to that sourcelink, there’s a challenge that stupid people are participating in that involves snorting a condom through one of their nostrils and pulling it out of their mouths.
Now, given that it’s April 1, I convinced myself when I saw the headline that this was someone’s really terrible idea of an April Fools Prank, but you guys, it’s real. Google it. You’ll see.
Apparently, it’s not a NEW challenge, but because we live in the age of social media, where teens/millennials are constantly on the lookout for innovative ways they can obtain likes and follows and affirmation on their various social media platforms, it’s been one of those challenges that is surging in popularity right now.
We shouldn’t be surprised. I mean, we have teenagers from Florida who are fighting to have their own rights taken away, so OF COURSE we have teenagers snorting condoms through their noses. They need something to do in between gun control rallies and eating Tidepods.
It should go without saying, but THIS IS DANGEROUS. You could potentially choke on it, obvs, or you could suck it into your lungs, where it most certainly is not intended to be.
I’m not even gonna share any of the YouTube videos of this stupid challenge, but if you’re interested, there are a bunch.
We’re doomed.
