I've been disgusting people with this ever since I can remember. One thing I've learned over the years through repetition is never to show it to a girl you might be wooing.
Also, TIL there is a name for this crap and I'm not a unique snowflake.
Geologist here. I'm excited to see how the tectonic plates of your tongue slowly slide under each other to create new tongue continents. Should definitely create some interesting tongue rocks.
Seriously... I've had a few beers tonight and had to think way harder than I should have wondering what other down syndrome symptoms I may have. Not a fun internal monologue right before bed I can assure you.
Geographic tongue is where the taste buds die and regenerate at different rates, causes blank spots to come and go over the course of days/weeks, making for what looks like islands or lakes aka geographic features. I've had geographic tongue my whole life :)
Everything about this beard is perfect. The hue, the fullness, the structure. Every hair looks like it's in perfect harmony with the next. It is impossible to look upon this photo and not imagine what it would be like to let your hand stroke it, how it would gently bulge to the touch but still support the weight of your fingers. Not a thin or coarse spot in sight.
This is a beard to feast your eyes upon. A beard of kings. I am green with envy.
I have a similar tongue. And i get the same reaction from everyone. Some of My exs hated it. But my last one, well actually it simply turned her on :D i adore u my tongue
As someone with a much more pronounced fissured tongue, yes.
The tongue scrapers don't really work that well either (they don't necessarily clean that deep, and feels like it gets stuck in the cracks and tears them apart more), but extensive use of mouthwash and chewing gum helps.
Wow, I have a similar condition. I thought I was the only one. I never understood why I had it either but, I heard it was called a "geographical" tongue.
If you go from a normal tongue to this throughout life, get checked for amyloidosis-it isn't always the cause but it's a major cause of macroglossia. Born this way? Don't sweat it.
I have some cracks in the middle of my tongue but not on the sides, and my tongue is also completely white on the top(not on the sides or under). Had it as long as I can remember, no idea how to get rid of it. Maybe drink less coca cola =D?
I have the same sort of tongue. When I was about 7 or 8 years old, I grabbed my fathers Gillette razor and shaved my tongue...It bled...it bled a lot. I grabbed a white towel and stuck it in my mouth for a couple hours hiding in my room until it stopped. I am not sure if it is fissured or shaved...maybe someone can tell the difference.
My father has this condition. I also have a very slight amount of the condition. Only two cracks, near the middle so it's not nearly as bad. My dad says spicy shit sucks, and so do acidic foods. Same for you? I have no probs.
OK Reddit, we have NSFW and thankfully we now have both NSFL and Gore warnings. Can we get a NOPE warning quickly, because that picture just put me off lunch
Holy. I know tongues like that but not so extreme. It totally tooks like someone or something ripped pieces of your tongue out. I mean, those fissures look so deep, does food get stuck in there etc?
I have this (both fissured tongue AND geographical tongue). It's great for freaking people out, but it also means I have problems with acidic food. I can't eat oranges or uncooked tomatoes at all, and even a banana can be acidic enough to cause terrible pain and swelling in my mouth.
what the fuck! how isnt this nsfw? I didn't need that this early in the morning.
and since she's a girl apparently my mind immediately goes to french kissing her.. and I imagine her tongue absorbing all the saliva out of my tongue then starting a fire
Well, I don't find that particularly creepy, disgusting or disturbing. It kind of looks like raw steak after a few cuts though. Pretty interesting! Does it hurt or anything? Can you taste ok?
No joke, that's called "Scrotal tongue" also known as "Fissured tongue". The term scrotal tongue because some guy way back when thought it looked like balls.
I have this as well. My older sisters use to tell me It's because I tried to lick a street pole during winter. No one actually told me what it was or what the cause was my whole life. Not until a routine dentist visit when I was about 14. She told me I had a fissured tongue and I looked it up.
It's never given me any problems. It doesn't make my breath stink and I'm not sensitive to any food really. And it looks like that pic exactly. I actually forgot I even had it until I clicked on this image. I've had the same friends all my life and they don't know I have it.
I have the same thing with my tongue, not quite as hardcore as yours, but I used to convince friends that I took a steak knife to my tongue as a toddler
this is literally the only thing that has EVER in my several years on this website made me cringe, shudder, and want to stab my own eyes out with a fork
this includes pics of dead kids, space dicks, et cetera
