      I think the idea is that onion juice evaporates a bit easier than sweat/helps evaporation somehow so it’ll help you feel cooler. But you know what also does that? Fucking lotion, a substance designed to be put on your skin

        Evaporation does lower temperature though. That is how sweat works. This has to be more akin to the effect of icy-hot or menthol.

            I think it's best if the official advice makes Br*ts even more unshaggable.

        What lotion? I've never heard of one to evaporate. Usually it's to keep the skin wetter, not dry it

          Yeah I’ll be honest I don’t understand the mechanics of it because you’re right, but put lotion on and stand in front of a fan and you’ll know what I’m talking about

            That might just be the liquid evaporating because it's present, same as water in your hands. Migjt not be faster than sweat, just more available to evaporate.

        wtf

        seriously wtf

        are you telling me that knifebinners actually believe that because the sulfur fumes vaporize immediately from onions and make you cry, that the liquid in it evaporates better?

        is this why they suggested that? bongs literally CRYING because they can't understand basic science
