    Smile The cure to Brain Freeze!

    Most of you should know what brain freeze is but if you don't, brain freeze is when you eat cold foods like Ice-cream quickly, or in a large amount, and then your head hurts.

    Being the genius I am, I found out how to stop this phenomenon, all you have to do is to take your thumb and streak it across the roof of your mouth and then your brain won't hurt anymore!

    Does anyone else know any weird things like these?

    Whilst losing at mercy, rather than attempting to overpower your opponent, twisting your wrist back into it's original position it is much easier to relocate the rest of your body to place the hand into a more comfortable position. You look like you might be missing a chromosome but no more so than vigourously rubbing your thumb on the roof of your mouth

    Thanks for the information. I hate brain freezes, and I'll try your 'thumb streak across roof of mouth' method in an attempt to cure it next time.

    If you're about to sneeze and you don't want to, simply slap yourself across the face extremely hard. It usually stops you from sneezing (for a couple of minutes, anyway).

    When you're jumping off your neighbours' roof after getting your football back, land with your feet together so your knees don't smack you in the jaw :mog:

    If you say you'll do something 'in a minute' enough times you won't have to move, as someone will get so pissed off and do it for you

    I rub between my index finger and thumb to get rid of brain freeze. Rubbing the roof of my mouth tickles.

    If you don't want to sneeze, pinch your thumb and index finger right under your nose and breath deeply. It works, which is wierd ><

    I've only ever had it once and my friend told me to press my tongue on the roof of my mouth. I don't know if it made it go away any faster. (I have no window of comparison.)

    Ahh the skin on the roof of your moth like tears soo easily, I advise you use your tongue rather than your thumb, or else it'll really sting.

    14 sips of liquid without breathing cures hiccups.

    Milk/yoghurt/ice cream is better than water if you want to get rid of the hotness from spicy food like chilli peppers

    If my brain started freezing, I just go to bathroom and dive into an empty tub and turn on the hot water and pour em onto my head. Oh wait...

    You can cure a toothache by pulling all your teeth out!

    the same thing goes for arthritis in your fingers and toes.

    And spine.
