Hand shaped???? What kind of hand? Um, doing what?

spinster, you've NEVER touched your tongue with a 9 volt battery???? It just sort of tickles, I guess.

I've never tried touching anything else with it though . . . :eek:

Not nearly as much fun, I suspect!

Yeah, but my adventurous spirit does know a FEW bounds . . . And while I can probably live with a slightly "shocked" tongue, there are other parts that I value too highly to put it to the test. :D

*/me shakes head to clear*. I think I might have just dropped into SL for a second. Just saw outside in front of the courthouse, a lady with long, straight hair to her waist; top half a brilliant purple and bottom half a bright turquoise. Was kinda pretty actually, the color combo, just not used to seeing that in RL......

I love my RL but c'mon, as a roleplayer my avatar has a FAR more exciting life than I'll ever have.
Hard choice there.

A sort of light tickle, to stimulate the nerve endings and the blood flow?? ;)

Think I'll stick to batteries that are safely nestled INSIDE things . . . :D

LOL, yeah, probably . . .

They just don't make movies like that anymore . . . (thanks be to god).

I am, however, seriously flabbergasted that I am apparently the only person here who ever did this with a nine-volt. Did NONE of you have childhoods? :eek:

Next thing you'll be telling me is that NONE of you ever sat in a dark closet watching for sparks as you bit into Wintergreen Life Savers . . .

Growing up with 2 brothers, I watched and learned from those 2 morons exploits, so I never had to try it :p
They DID get me chew tinfoil once though :o

Heh. I never tried THAT. I guess I haven't really lived . . .

I have done both. Also had a shop teacher run 70,000 volts through an entire class linked hand-to-hand. That tingled.

Nice to know, though, that I'm not a COMPLETE oddity! :)
