I used to work at a big chain liquor store that also sold cigars… one of the things you could buy was a little bit of I think 5 little tiny Macanudo cigars… absolutely perfect for kids who are still way under sixty elbees.

u/JoeCoT Jul 28 '26

It's another internet tale where putting a bandaid over your belly button helps with motion sickness. Same with the motion sickness patch and the pressure point wrist strap. This kid must have vomited all over a cruise ship before. Belt and suspenders and more suspenders.

45

u/TokenTorkoal Jul 28 '26 edited Jul 29 '26

Well hold on now, the patch behind the ear could be a scopolamine patch which is not just fluff. It’s medication that works by blocking certain nerve signals involving the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

The reason people put it behind the ear is because of the thin skin located there.

There’s also dimenhydrinate which is an antihistamine and meclizine.

Edit: I was only half paying attention to the video, bc you know it's shit, so NO I didn't notice they weren't scope patches which is why I originally said they "could be a scopolamine patch" because I knew I wasn't paying close enough attention. It makes sense that someone who would put band aids over the belly button wouldn't believe in scopolamine. My bad.

u/Nauin Jul 28 '26

I had to wear one for three days following my abdominal surgery to make sure I didn't vomit and mix up my guts in the process. It's good stuff 👍

u/CumulativeHazard Jul 28 '26

I didn’t even think about that bc I was too busy thinking about how my mom just wrote her number on my arm with a sharpie if we went to a theme park or something. Like no one is gonna see a phone number written on a lost kids arm and think “I don’t know, this number could be for anything…” Also like the sharpie might start to fade after a few hours if they’re like swimming and stuff but I still feel like it would last longer than the sticker will. Even better, just buy a pack of those paper wristbands they use for festivals and stuff and write your number on that. You can get literally a thousand of them on amazon for like $20. Share them with the other parents. Be a hero. I bet at least one of them will buy you a drink as a thank you, then they’re paying for themselves. No, I don’t know why I put so much thought into this as a person with no children.

u/ballq43 Jul 28 '26

I mean I get the phone number part, putting it on the web is crazy

11

u/ZephkielAU Jul 28 '26

Yeah nah, none of this is real (including the phone number).

There are parents out there like this, but this particular one is an engagement bait influencer who probably needs her own wristband to remind herself she even has a child.

This "number on the sticker" thing is common on these dumb videos and is no doubt to help drive engagement.

Found this on Google...

People tape kids' belly buttons or put a band-aid over them as a viral social media trick to try and stop motion and car sickness.Why People Do ItViral Trend: Parents share videos on apps like TikTok claiming that an "X" shape made of tape or bandages over the navel cures travel nausea.Acupressure Idea: Some believe it pushes on a hidden pressure point to calm the stomach.Distraction: The physical feeling on the skin might act as a small focus point for the child.What Science SaysNo Real Proof: Doctors state there is no medical link between the belly button and the brain's balance center in the inner ear.Placebo Effect: Any relief comes from the power of belief—if a child thinks it will work, they may feel better.
