Ha ha ha. I have been trying to learn this since I was 8 years old. Finally some instructions!

I found some instructions on how to do a real life nerve pinch, but it seems pretty complicated and requires a certain amount of precision. Also, apparently it "may" render someone unconscious. Lame.

These instructions remind me of some of the stuff we used to do in junior high school. Someone worked out a system of breathing and getting your chest pushed in that would cause you to pass out and feel a minor high. As an adult looking back I realize that we were simply hyperventilating and most likely doing serious brain damage, but at the time it was like having amazing powers.

I also remember that at about the same time for some reason a couple of my friends got into acid, and by acid I mean ascorbic acid, commonly known as Vitamin C. They would bring a big bottle of vitamin C to school and we would all see how long we could suck on tablets, or how many you could suck on at the same time. Pretty unpleasant, if memory serves. Like most stupidity in my life, it seemed like a good idea at the time, but I don't even try to understand my motivation for 90% of the dumb stuff I did as a young teenager.

Incidentally, Vitamin C is the stage name of the lead singer for Eve’s Plum.
