Are you ready to be traumatized? If so, buckle up.
The latest incredibly disturbing teen craze has hit YouTube, and it's called the "condom challenge."
Basically, the participant snorts a condom up his or her nose and then pulls it out of their mouth.

So you want to get a dog. You've put months of thought into the decision, maybe picked up a few pet toys, a sparkly collar - you were ready.
You jauntily trot down the street to a nearby outdoor market. "Today is the day, today is the day! I just can't wait to meet the adorable puppy that will fill the warm fuzzy space in my heart."
Maybe you even hummed a happy little song.
You get to the market, and suddenly you see him. Your eyes lock from across the crowded walkway. His fluffy white fur, his pointed snout, his limpid gaze - he is perfect. He is the perfect toy poodle to join your family...continue reading

Apparently, this is a thing.

"This will be a keepsake to remind you of the breastfeeding bond between you and your child for a lifetime," writes Allicia Mogavero on her Mommy Milk Creations Etsy site.
