Especially hurts when you wet the end of the towel.

In the 90s we called it a rat tail.

Drawing blood was common.

Yes, wetting said towel to inflict more damage/pain was the most ideal.

My kids and I gently did it to each other raising them but a few weeks back my 14 year old got a good one that was probably harder than intended and left a bit of welp.

he knows I’m going to tag him back but doesn’t know when.

So yes. Still alive.

I've been doing it all my life and never knew there was a word for it until a few years ago.
