Maybe Pepto-bismol Ice Cream will cure the 5 minute cake sickness or give you dangerous medicated brain freeze. :mrgreen:

No thanks. I think sleep cured whatever that fucking cake did to me. Also, I don't get brain freezes.

Only a third of the population suffer from brain freeze.

Shido's in the majority. You're all freaks.

Well you're not trying hard enough.

Slushie with sherbet in it should do the trick.

It's simple as that, it's simple as that, it's simple as that for your stupid ass.

Probably. I've never been big on Slushies, so I haven't had enough to freeze my brain. Though I don't plan to go out of my way to get a brain freeze.... I know that my dad and my older sister have gotten brain freezes though. Might it be genetic? (That's probably the stupidest question in the world, but whatever).

I don't think it's that stupid. I'm pretty sure brain freeze is cause by the cold ice cream / smoothie / whatever cooling blood going up to your brain. I guess there's an artery running right next to your throat. It could be that certain people have a smaller space between the artery and their throat, or that they just swallow differently.

Or I could have no idea what I'm talking about. Wouldn't be the first time.

Wikipedia wrote:The effect occurs when something very cold, like ice cream, touches the top palate in the mouth. The blood vessels constrict due to the cold. As the palate warms, the blood vessels suddenly enlarge and the blood rushes back to the blood vessels. The nerves in this area send a signal for pain to the front of the brain, resulting in a brief headache.

It has been estimated that 1 in 3 people experience brain freeze from ice cream. Some studies suggest that brain freeze is more common in people who experience migraines; other studies have shown the opposite.
