Was "gleaking" ever a big thing at your school?
2007-08-28, 2:17 PM #1
I just kind of randomly remember. "Gleaking" is when you kind of raise your tongue and press it to the front of your mouth, making some sort of spit gland squeez out a small amount of saliva in a tiny, jet stream type spray. You would do this on someone, essentially spitting on the, but in such a small amount that they aren't supposed to get mad about it, but it was still kinda gross. Soda seems to enhance the effects of gleaking, which caused it to be particularly popular around lunch time in my school in 6th or 7th grade. Anyone know of what I speak?

Lot of the baseball players at my school do it. Seems like a habit though.

we spent more time throwing compasses at each other or chewing up lumps of paper and launching them through the end of biro tubes.

In Junior high, yes. It kind of died out in high school though. Unless you were part of the honky clique.

Yep. It was pretty big in our middle school. I could never do it consistently though.

I can't do it on demand. Some people in middle school did it occasionally.

Yeah it was big in middle school, and some were quite adept at it. There were distance matches, heh.

It's easy, Detty, just get the most sour thing you can think of (maybe a super-sour hard candy or something), open your mouth, raise your tongue, and your body will do the rest.

Yes, they did it when I was kid (and that was a LONG time ago).

I'm one of those who has the pleasure of being able to control it. While I haven't used the "talent" in years, this thread reminded me of my now latent ability and I'm pleased to announce that I can still launch spit from my sublingual salivary glands around 10 feet, and pretty accurately.

It was a big popular thing way back when I was in Jr. High or so as well. Oh what a wonderful prank... you walk up and spit straight in somebody's face and they rarely get as mad as if you did it the other way. Brilliant! :downswords:

never...

we prefered doing things that could result in bodily injury... in elementary school it was who could get the most distance by launching themselves from the swings... in middle school there was still playground equipment... swings and such but we tackled this tall jungle gym thing and threw each other off of it.. in high school... there was alot of bypassing the stairs to get from the stands to the gym floor... over the railing and down to the floor... and then us nuts in the JROTC racing each other down the side of the building

but we never spit on each other

You're probably imagining meth heads gleaking.

I can't do it on command (not that I want to), but it usually happens while I talk and I hate it.

Back in middle school one of my friends did it all the time, it got annoying.... especially when he do it right onto your face.... gross.
2007-08-29, 12:25 AM #26
Actually, since the saliva comes straight from the gland, it's nowhere near as contaminated as the saliva of the mouth. Someone else's would be virtually the same as your own (saliva is already that way, but still).

That sounds like something we had in pre-school.

Damn. A few of the worst brutes were doing that back when I was in school. Fortunately it never got popular and I certainly didn't socialize with that ilk if I could help it. I had all but forgotten the whole thing.

I only do it on accident. 99% of the time it happens when I'm writing a paper in class, and then I get spittle all over the looseleaf :(
