Sooo... like... just chalk this up to the bizarreness that is the Japanese and don't get me wrong I'm a fiend for all things Japanica but even this is ummm... NO! WRONG. I'm referring to the latest eye ball licking trend sweeping the teenage Asian nation and beyond. No, don't re-read, you read it right the first time, EYEBALL LICKING or "worming" otherwise known as oculolinctus. It's a fun filled sport where teenagers show affection for each other by actually licking their partners eye balls. It's believed to have been started with a scene featured in an Japanese video released last year from the band called Born, showing a dramatic slow motion scene of oculolinctus. The down side is that this practice is very dangerous and can cause severe medical issues such as pink eye and blindness! The mouth is filled with bacteria that can be transferred to the eye causing permanent damage to the cornea and a person can run the high risk of catching conjunctivitis or cornea ulcer. Surely I can not be as cool as a Japanese teeny bopper but might I offer some words of wisdom like "Hey weirdo kids, try holding hands and kissing, you wont get some nasty germ-y disease that way." Your welcome. I'm just filled with knowledgeable tid-bits. Can't wait to have kids of my own one day. Is this a glimpse of what I have to look forward to or will other body parts be explored? Errr...ummm... Eeek! Opinions? Discuss-y Stay beautiful! XOXO
