Default Condom snorting. Yup...it's a thing

Imagine uncoiling a condom and stuffing it up one side of your nose, then plugging the other nostril and inhaling until the long piece of latex slides into your throat. Then what? You reach back and pull it from your mouth.

The article does not explicitly say, but I am assuming we are talking about new condoms for this challenge.

To be honest this generation frightens me, because one day they will be taking care of us, and be political and industrial leaders.....people from other planets are watching us and they must think we are completely regressing

i think a young condom snorter might actually be smarter than the selfie drama teacher we currently have.

There was a similar thing going on when I was a kid 25 years ago. Kids would snort a piece of cooked spaghetti and would have one end of the noodle hanging out their nose and the other out the mouth.

From the article

Quote:
It’s a game called the “condom-snorting challenge” and, not unlike other dangerous dares that have swept social media, teenagers have been doing it — for years now.

“Because these days our teens are doing everything for likes, views and subscribers,” Enriquez added. “As graphic as it is, we have to show parents because teens are going online looking for challenges and re-creating them.”

Kids shouldn't have to learn how to do this sort of thing on the internet.

Parents have a responsibility to sit their kids down and talk to them about how to do this sort of thing safely.

You start with spaghetti, graduate to condoms and, eventually, garter snakes.

It starts at home.

Rookies. When I was a kid we didn’t cook the spaghetti...

When I was young we drank or smoked anything we thought could give us a buzz but the Tide Pod challenge and this? I just don't understand the payoff.

It's been a thing for well over a decade. Here's a video from 9 years ago, and they aren't exactly kids doing it.

Hundreds of thousands of kids march in the street for sensible leadership while being ignored by 70 year olds.

There were and always will be tide pod eaters and condom sniffers of all generations. These idiots just have the ability to broadcast it for us to see.

Good prep for a career of having a penis shoved in your airway, I suppose.

I can’t tell what’s worse.

That you’ve compared your penis to an empty condom.

Or that you think penises go in the nose.

Is this another meme where the kids pretend to do something to rile people up? That's what tide pods were.
