    and now that you’ve put the idea in my brain…

    i have an electric lighter. I want to zap myself with it to see how much it hurts. I fucking know it will hurt, but now i’m fucking curious.

    I hope you’re happy with yourself.

      They do hurt, hilariously so. As a teenager I remember a group of friends all zapping each other with one on the ass. That electric spark will go through jeans even and people will jump. (It can however leave a little scorch mark on clothing though, so don’t do it through clothes that aren’t dark colored or that anyone cares about.)

          I approve of this idea. And if you get drunk and don’t forget about it you can test it then. It stings but not as much as you’d imagine.

          (Not that I’ve gotten drunk and tried that…)

            Yeah tazers are scary because of the sound. In practice its not that bad, I’ve been shocked worse by electronics. Unless you’re using a police taser. Those hurt way more… I’ve heard from a friend
