Apparently the new hazard for teens is texting thumb.
“Repetitive use of your thumb, in a manner that it was not originally created to be used. Continued misuse can cause pain, numbness, enlarged thumb syndrome (ETS), and possibly amputation.
Take a good look at that last possible scenario. AMPUTATION?! What the?! Are you kidding me?! This made me think about the warning of the day when I was a teen which was that wearing headphones would cause you to become deaf. I wonder what the big warning was in our parents days as teens? I know my dad said they used to warn that Elvis Presley was evil, but I wonder what was the health warning. What about when you were young? Do you remember any? If so, make sure you leave a comment or email me, because I can't hear so good.

Don't cross your eyes, or they'll stay that way...forever.
Cracking your knuckles gives you arthritis. (See previous post comments....)
HAHA! I totally forgot about the gum! Or how it would take 7 years to digest. It only made the desire to swallow it more enticing.
