I get it really bad, almost to the point that when it hits, I almost can't see straight. It really takes the pleasure out of eating or drinking anything really cold. Does anyone have a remedy that actually works? Or am I doomed to just ride it out when it happens?
Someone told me once that you need to press your tongue against the roof of your mouth. I've tried it. Sometimes it works, other times not so much.
Sip warm liquid slowly and swish it around your mouth a bit. This will warm up your palate.

Yeah tried it, doesn't work for me.
Ah, I believe I can help you here, Runnay...sure fired, 100% guaranteed remedy.
STOP EATING FROZEN DESSERTS...this includes ice cream, slurpies, slushies, milk shakes and ice confections.
Its easy to remember...just remind yourself the next time something frozen is placed before you that NO FOOD WAS EVER MADE TO BE EATEN FROZEN. None!!!
It makes you FAT. But you already knew that.

So chewing on ice makes you fat? Thanks for that bit of.........wisdom. ac_rollseyes
Oh BTW, I can appreciate your distrust of frozen food. It must seem like some kind of alchemy coming from a country where things like refrigeration and indoor plumbing are all but unheard of.
Ice is not food. Its water, dumbass. There's no water in pizza, or KFC.
Australians were considering buying US refrigerators after seeing that last Indiana Jones stinker. Imagine, a fridge that can protect you from a nuclear blast.
But the we decided we don't need them as much as you.
I have that too but I find using tooth paste like sensodyne helps. My teeth hurt especially with ice cream and I love ice cream ac_crying
I am perhaps being too harsh on Renee. If the amount of ice required to cause brain freeze is correlated to the size of the brain, then a simple gin and tonic with an ice cube added would do.

You must have missed where I said "ANYTHING really cold". Your old eyes are probably a little dim so I'll let it slide. To be honest I am an ice chewer; I do it constantly. Some people are obsessive about drinking their daily requirement of water, I chew ice. In fact so much so that the dentist lectures me about the damage it's doing to the crowns I have on my back teeth. ac_dunno
Now as for the Indiana Jones film, I must admit I never saw that one. Something about OLD men trying to prove they still got something exciting to offer just doesn't do it for me. ac_boring
BTW, I'd suggest you rethink getting a refrigerator. An old corpse like you has only 2 options; the cooler or embalming fluid. I'm pretty sure spending a few hours a day in cold storage is preferable to having your body filled with formaldehyde. Well that's just my opinion, you are free to decide for yourself.
Was that better?
Fuck...you yanks will do anything to keep your mouths working.
Can't chew ice here. Its 8 bux a cube.

So water IS that expensive in Oz.
Well, that explains the smell. ac_wot
