There was a time when we got things like the Beatles and Monty Python from our British cousins. The most recent import from England, however, is far less redeeming: vodka eyeballing. Upset that vodka shots took too long to be absorbed into their blood streams, British drinkers have discovered that pouring vodka directly into your eye socket results in a faster avenue to inebriation.
Students are experiencing constantly watering eyes that are left with permanent injuries from the stupid practice. One college student in the article below reports “I’m in constant pain because of what I did. And I’m terrified that it will get worse. I wish I could turn the clock back and change things. But I can’t.” I must confess sympathy but not a great deal of sympathy. Sticking a vodka bottle on your eye would be a patently stupid and dangerous act for any rational actor (which may, of course, exclude a significant number of college students).

vlf1212,
I don’t pretend to know everything. There are somethings in life that I have been shielded from and this is one. Now I know what a Hillbilly Hottub is…..
Sorry – I thought that term was common knowledge
Oh, I googled it and its Oxy. Tootles and Rush must be one in the same then…..
vlf1212,
I’ll take the bait, what is Hillbilly Heroin?
AY:
My guess is Hillbilly Heroin.
Tottles,
Did you get up on the wrong side of the mattress this morning? I see you still do ghetto. Which is better, crack, crank, meth, coke or 8 balling?
Vodka eyeballing got a shout-out on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night.
So, Obama was doing that up his nose?
Oh wait, that was cocaine. Never mind.
Yikes! Vodka in the eyes?? Doesn’t that burn like crazy?
BTW is that what “heres looking at you means”?
First at this late hour,Hey Mike S.!!
Second thanks AY I needed something to put a smile on my face at the end on this busy day.
I’ve admitted to living a rather adventurous life in the 60’s and 70’s, but this excess is amazing. If someone is that stupid, or in need of a high, they have no business being involved in higher education because they are either mentally ill, or so immersed in poor judgment that they have no business being on a Campus.
Thankfully, any treatment needed is fully covered by the National Health Service.

Yeah, but he’s green whereas you have a feather in your cap ….
Blouise,
As has been pointed out almost a year ago, I awake just to annoy and Buddha, well, he lives to be of service. So far he has been of service today, I am not sure as to what….
TY.
Anonymously Yours

Comedians say that for something to be funny there has to be an element of truth involved … Your comment is hilarious … thanks for the morning pick-me-up.
Morons have been doing this for ages, it was in a film, Kevin and Perry Go Large. The bloke who did it was called Eyeball Paul (please note bad language and general grossness) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gP6AXMqK0OM
My eyeballs hurt just reading this
AY:
Ha! That’s funny …
