Trust Millennials to Take up Any Challenge, Even Snorting Condoms

‘Bizarre’ takes a new name!

Yes, it is time.

An appropriately angsty teenager is bent over a coffee table, trying to snort.

Yes, the C-word. No, not the one you're thinking of.

Condoms.

Whuuuuuu... yes.

The 'woke' millennial is anchored hazardously to the flaky world of trends and is plagued by a question:

Am I bored

OR

Am I bored?

But, when not bored, this notorious individual is 'challenging' himself. (That is, if the internet can be relied on, for just this once.)

When not bored, this notorious individual is ‘challenging’ himself.

And these snippets of thrill take on many forms:

• A plumped pout achieved via extreme measures.
• Biting chunks off a detergent packet... to no end effect.
• Polishing off a spoonful of ground cinnamon in under 60 seconds.

And these are only a few.

(PS: I am still wondering if the tendency to put things in one’s mouth is an extension of our Freudian complexities.)

Perched on the precipe of a meme, cape billowing rhythmically to five different versions of ‘Shape Of You’ , the new-age millenial leaves no stone unturned when it comes to experimentation.

Attached hazards or not.

If you’re still curious, here’s a sneak peek at some of his/her feats accomplished:

If Only We Knew Why...

The Condom Snorting Challenge:

Inhale the condom in through your nose and, eventually, pull it out of your mouth. Eeeks!

Oh Kylie, What Did You Unleash?

The Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge:

Looking for the perfect pout?

Worry not.

1. Subject yourself to an alarming situation.
2. Place lips into a shot glass,
3. Suck the air out of the glass,
4. Create friction (and discomfort)
5. Bazinga.

Of All The Things You Can Swallow...

The Cinnamon Challenge:

Think about what we just said.

Did We Miss a Memo on What’s ‘Fun’?

The Tide-Pod Challenge:

Kids bite into detergent packets/pods. Then chew it up and spew soap from their mouths.

*Can’t feel my mouth anymore*

What On Good Earth?

The Fire Challenge:

Set yourself on fire for a short period by applying flammable liquids and film the outcome.

I am telling you. You and I have missed an entire world-order. (Thank heavens?)

There are quite a few more.

But let’s reserve all of that for later. We’re still processing these.

Also, the only silver lining?

Thank god for CBSE retests. Desi kids are occupied.
