Seems like teens have no limit to their motivation and creativity when it comes to getting high, drunk while trying to win another rung up the social ladder. We’ve compiled a list of some of the more extraordinary activities your offspring may be engaging in. If you’ve got more stories from stupid teen activities, send it our way and we’ll post it. For now, let’s dip into the current teen-o-sphere and check in with what’s cool in their mushy minds

1. Eyeballing

Teens are creative (and stupid) as they find new ways to consume alcohol without leaving the obvious smell of alcohol on their breath. This new trend involves pouring vodka directly into the eye which enters the bloodstream through the veins around the eyeball. The result –  quick buzz. This can cause burning or scaring the cornea, and in some cases cause blindness.

Hint: Look for eye problems not related to sports or typical injuries. Might be wearing sunglasses more often.

2. Strangling

Here’s the deal – teen uses various restraints to cut off the flow of blood to the brain, depriving it of oxygen. After being released, the blood immediately rushes back into the brain and evokes a high, dizzy feeling. This is also being used during sex (with and without a partner) to enhance the sexual experience.

Hint: Look for unusual use of scarves around the neck, turtle necks (who wears them anyway?), or popped collars.

3. Gummy Bears

Thanks to a popular YouTube video, your adventurous teen now has access to a step-by-step guide on how to soak gummy bears in vodka and chomp on them in plain sight just about anywhere. The result is an instant buzz not easily detected on their breath. The candy is often consumed in big amounts, rapidly leading to high levels of intoxication. Teens eat them way too fast and way too many and get super trashed and at risk of alcohol poisoning.

Hint: Did your teen suddenly develop a sweet tooth? Keep an eye out for copious gummy purchases.

4. Tampons

Not sure who the first person to come up with this one was but I’m sure they gave their parents a major headache. Here’s the weird but true stupid thing – A tampon is soaked in alcohol and then stuck in a vagina or rectum. No alcohol on the breath and quick drunkeness. Besides the obvious risks to those private body parts, the tampon can soak up alot of alcohol and put the stupid teen at high risk of alcohol poisoning.

Hint: Keep an eye out for unusual amounts of tampons being purchased (especially those of you with teenage sons).

5. Handsanitizer

Inexpensive and very accessible product is easy for experimenting teens to get their hands on. Salt is used to separate the high quantities of alcohol found in hand sanitizer, which they then drink. They typicall get about a shot-worth of hard liquor.

Hint: Buy the foam type of sanitizer or ones that do not list ethanol as their main ingredient.

6. Car Surfing

Teen + Car Roof + High Speed (or low speed for that matter) = Broken something. Teens climb on top of a car, hold onto the roof, and pretend to surf while someone drives. Some kids have gone to the extreme, and tried surfing on top of trains and subways.

Hint: Check your car roof for footprints Sunday morning.

7. Purple Drink

Ok…this sounds nasty but when did we start assuming teens had really good taste? The drink is a mixture of Sprite, Jolly Ranchers, and codeine cough syrup. It can be super toxic and cause hallucinations, unresponsiveness, and lethargy. Combined with alcohol, your kid may have a big problem. It’s hit pop culture and been glamorized by NFL players and rapers.

Hint: Periodically check your medicine cabinet for prescription and non-prescription meds being used up in odd amounts.

8. Bath Salts

Commonly referred to as “Purple Wave” and “Bliss,” this drug contains high levels of mephedrone, methylone, and MDPV, three drugs that cause hallucinations when smoked, snorted, or injected. Until recently, these salts were often found in smoke shops and were sold legally in the U.S. This drug can cause paranoia, suicidal behavior, and chest pain.

Hint: Most of this stuff is sold at ‘smoke shops’ as incense.
