  • Hey there!

  • Welcome to Life Noggin!

  • Donuts!

  • Donuts everywhere!?

  • How will I consume all these donuts!?

  • Welcome to another episode of Dear Blocko!

  • This is the show where I answer questions about your world, and mine!

  • Let's get started with our first one!

  • Amber asks Dear Blocko

  • Could Popping Pimples Kill You?

  • I'm afraid to pop!

  • I feel you, Amber.

  • My adolescent years were the WORST!

  • But pimples are actually pretty common and usually aren't that much of a concern.

  • They form when your dead skin cells mix with excess oil, clogging the pores on your skin

  • and causing swelling.

  • Bacteria can grow there, leading to an infection and that whitish pus that some people love

  • to pop.

  • But popping pimples isn't really a good idea, because it can cause the pimple to become

  • even more inflamed, infected, and can even lead to permanent scarring.

  • I've even seen claims that there's this wholetriangle of deatharea on your

  • face where popping a pimple can be deadly.

  • Basically, the idea is that the veins in this area have a connection to your brain.

  • So pop a pimple there, get an infection, and it could hypothetically lead back to your

  • brain.

  • Even if this is true, the risk still seems super low, but with all bad things associated

  • with popping pimples anyway, best to just avoid it!

  • DiamondWolf25 Gaming asks Dear Blocko Why do you feel hot when you have

  • a fever?

  • PS: Keep up the great work!

  • Smiley Face.

  • Well, thank you so much!

  • I really appreciate that!

  • On the fever question, that might depend a bit on just why you have

  • a fever in the first place.

  • Fevers are basically when your body temperature is higher than it normally is.

  • They can be triggered by a bunch of things, but infectionslike the flu or the common

  • coldare often to blame.

  • So while every fever isn't the same, if you're up against something like the flu,

  • that change in temperature that you feel is essentially your body's way of fighting

  • the infection.

  • By itself, a mild fever is usually pretty harmlesseven though it might not feel

  • that great! — but if you have a severe or abnormally prolonged fever, you should seek

  • medical attention right away.

  • And now it's time for questions about me or my world!

  • Semin asks DEAR BLOCKO What is the happiest thing that

  • happened in your world?

  • Sad face

  • Hopefully this story can cheer you up!

  • There's a place called puppy island in my world.

  • I once got lost at sea and crash landed on this island.

  • The puppies saw i was in a bit of a pickle, so they all fused together to create one big

  • puppy, and he swam me back home!

  • Aren't they precious with their 18 eyeballs, and several hands.

  • Yes you are!

  • You are so precious!

  • Yes you are!

  • Pink Master asks Dear Blocko What types of creatures are unique

  • to your world?

  • Oh we have lots of creatures in the Life Noggin world that you humans don't have!

  • There's the Honk Honk.

  • Half bird.

  • Half horn.

  • There's Shrimpy Danielson!

  • A jumbo shrimp with big ol arms who specializes in yelling at traffic!

  • And of course we have Noo Noos!

  • They're cute balls of fur, and uh, well, they go boom.

  • So dangerous!

  • Ow!

  • So Cute!

  • Ow!

  • I just wanna love you!

  • Ow!

  • So do you have any questions about me, my world, or your world?

  • Let me know in the comment section below, and make sure you use the hashtag DEAR BLOCKO.

  • So I can find it.

  • Thank you so much for all of your questions, and supporting this series.

  • it's been really fun!

  • If you wanna watch more Dear Blocko, you should check out the previous episode we did.

  • If you hang upside down for more than a couple of minutes, your heart beat starts to slow,

  • and your blood pressure increases.

  • Being in an inverted state can even increase the blood flow to your head.

  • As always, my name is Blocko, this has been Life Noggin, don't forget to keep on thinking!
