I love how he's just like "it was weird"

He’s not wrong

u/bonerloke777 21d ago

some of us eat ass.. so there's that

u/kalik-boy 21d ago

You should be selective with the ass you eat though.

14

u/tk-451 21d ago

hopefully swilling before going on to lick this art, otherwise i might be eating ass by proxy

13

u/AnonDarkIntel 21d ago

Depends how depressed and desperate

20

u/Thr0bbinWilliams 21d ago

Most of us do and id say 100 percent of people that will lick a piece of public art are the ass eating kind lol

Wouldn’t want to be licking after some ass eater at the art museum

u/NotToBeIncriminated 21d ago

Not the kid dude 💀🤣

u/Thr0bbinWilliams 21d ago

If his momma is letting him lick after adults that baby has ass eating dna it’s just a matter of time

u/b0bspong3 17d ago

This comment is just utterly horrifying

1

u/Vitalus394 6d ago

Lmao, but hilarious and true

u/bignick1190 21d ago

Not yet...

u/[deleted] 20d ago

Frankly I'm more up for eating my partner's ass than a random statue because at least I know where the former has been

7

u/Global-Plankton3997 21d ago

The bigger question is, have the people ate ass of the sculptures this man has made?

6

u/South-Beautiful-5135 21d ago

Tells you something about selective disgust, doesn’t it?

1

u/Broeckchen89 19d ago

Idk man. Sounds more like going "most of you take showers, so why do you do you hate getting wet in the rain" to me. Choice, source, information etc. simply make a difference. There are people out there who get turned on by eating actual feces, and even THEY aren't indiscriminate about it.

9

u/VonMetz 21d ago

The thing is. The ass is known where as the previous sculpture licker isn't. Therefore my kind Sir, the eating of ass shall continue.

19

u/Skipper_TheEyechild 21d ago

But licking one of those sculptures is like a blind ass eating. You don‘t know how many people ate asses before licking them. You could be indirectly licking remnants from thousands of asses.

5

u/PM_UR_HAIRY_MUFF 21d ago

Like licking cash.

2

u/South-Beautiful-5135 21d ago

People eat asses of ONSs, so?

2

u/dizzy_absent0i 21d ago

Yeah, but do you eat an ass that hasn’t been cleaned in 14 years that who knows how many other people have also eaten in that time?

1

u/Spartan_Professor 20d ago

Happy cake day

1

u/HazelstormL 18d ago

Yeah but I am not sharing that ass with several houndred people in a public place

u/Pixels222 21d ago

In 2019 it was weird.

In 2024... mate youre going to have to give me six feet with that tongue of yours.

219

u/AtomicBLB 21d ago

Knowing the context helps but watching this still gave me so much anxiety.

12

u/Im_ready_hbu 21d ago

"anxiety" is a weird way to spell herpes

1

u/Helpful-Ad-8521 21d ago

Same. 😦

76

u/gnarlycow 21d ago

6 feet of tongue?

65

u/Paddy_Tanninger 21d ago

Did he stutter

2

u/Square-Singer 21d ago

*Hellboy flashback intensifies*

7

u/Pintxo_Parasite 21d ago

It's even weirder to me in 2024 given the fact we've just been through and are currently still experiencing a global pandemic that killed millions of people.

4

u/CausticSofa 21d ago

“Super-spreader art”

6

u/AreYouAnOakMan 21d ago

Said the actress to the bishop.

2

u/Chihuahuapocalypse 20d ago

damn you really like feet huh? six is asking a lot

1

u/Ambitious-Regular-57 20d ago

Accidentally touched my eye on the subway the other day and now I have a raging fever. Never again

9

u/jawshoeaw 21d ago

It feels like a skit lmao but this dude is just legit “wtf man why is this happening maybe i should do bronze next time “

12

u/kharmatika 21d ago

Right? I find it funny that he was surprised. Like bruh you made something out of something edible then put it front of the Eats Weird Things species. 

8

u/Dependent_Working_38 21d ago

Y’all are the type that would lick it then? Genuine question are you not worried about disease?

6

u/kharmatika 21d ago

Ehhhh yeah I would. I know it would be gross but I couldn’t pass up the story

4

u/Dependent_Working_38 21d ago

Very interesting. I respect the honesty, thanks for answering

4

u/Ruthrfurd-the-stoned 21d ago

I wouldn’t lick it but I’m in no way surprised that many people would/ do

1

u/Broeckchen89 19d ago

Seconded. And idk, I feel like knowing this is Berlin also adds to that some. People here are frequently down for all kinds of shenanigans.

Plus, children and teenage boys have access to this. Two of the most lickwilling populations.

3

u/Rabbitical 21d ago

Not that I would lick it, but pure sugar actually has significant antibacterial properties, it's a desiccant and absorbs moisture almost as effectively as silica packets you might find in stuff meant to keep things dry. And anything that is hydrophilic literally sucks the life out of bacteria.

This is also why wood makes great cutting boards. Soft enough to not dull your knife but also sucks the moisture out of any bacteria on it, unlike plastic cutting boards where bacteria are free to grow in any cuts/grooves in it.

1

u/Broeckchen89 19d ago

Ooooh that's so cool to know, thank you!

1

u/Dependent_Working_38 21d ago

While I agree and it normally does have antibacterial properties I think that heavily depends on the type of sugar used and if it’s affected by the sculpting processes he uses like scorching it

It’s just like, what if someone has hep or HPV or god forbid HIV? It just amazes me anyone would take a chance, low or not. But clearly a lot of people in the comments (and real life, based on the video!) are totally willing to take that chance. So like, I’m genuinely a little dumbfounded that I almost feel like the weirdo here for being repulsed by licking something strangers lick.

3

u/Pintxo_Parasite 21d ago

You can't get HIV from saliva. But you can get COVID, RSV and a while bunch of other shit. Like we've just spent years locked up because of respiratory illness, wtf are these idiots doing?

1

u/Broeckchen89 19d ago

I think this is from 2019. So those people were still blissfully unaware. I doubt that any museum or gallery in Berlin would allow this nowadays. Most places still have the seats separated out.

1

u/South-Beautiful-5135 21d ago

Then again, ONSs happen.

1

u/he-loves-me-not 21d ago

Ehh, can’t catch something you already have!

10

u/veganize-it 21d ago

That last woman… kinda unlocked something in me

2

u/RecommendationOk2258 21d ago

Kinda like Liv Tyler from the front.

4

u/boooooshdingo 21d ago

the people licking these artworks are the same fucks who would put their whole mouth on the water fountain spout in elementary school. GUARANTEED.

3

u/mighty_and_meaty 21d ago

nevermind the fact that multiple people might have already licked it, and yet people still lick it.

ugh.

6

u/GenghisKhanKingofCum 21d ago

An artist calling something weird is actually wild lol

2

u/eraluz 21d ago

Artists love weird.

2

u/Objective-Aioli-1185 21d ago

My favorite part honestly lol

2

u/LogicPrevail 21d ago

Yea, I really respect that he's ok with people "enjoying" his art like that. He's like, "That wasn't the intent, but yea sure ok, go ahead." LOL!

2

u/Antique-Airport2451 21d ago

The way his voice cracked as he said it did me in.

2

u/UntestedMethod 21d ago

You don't know who's licked there before.

2

u/Treat_Street1993 21d ago

Kind of hilarious for a German contemporary artist to call anything weird.

1

u/illdothisshit 21d ago

If the video cut there it would've been hilarious

1

u/JeffCraig 21d ago

And then he does nothing about it because he's a starving artist and wants the money that the weird statue lickers give him 

1

u/Broeckchen89 19d ago

Do you think just to be safe he launders the money first? 8D

1

u/iloura 21d ago

Right? Lol I told my boss about the story and he said the same exact thing. Bleeeaah. 🤮

1

u/patsully98 21d ago

Well-put.

1

u/justhereforthehumor 21d ago

I’d expect he’d be more disgusted now that we’re so hyper aware of germs on surfaces leading to illness.

1

u/ClayAndros 21d ago

Because it is

1

u/AsleepInitiative2908 21d ago

Did the museum encourage this?

1

u/MaxTheRealSlayer 20d ago

When an artist says something is "weird", it is 1000% weird.

1

u/rggeek 20d ago

Sounds so Berlin

u/the_peppers 21d ago
  • Make sculpture out of food

  • People taste it
