Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

for background, I shaved my forearms for practicing methods of shaving my legs. low-key a mistake, don't think id recommend shaving arms lol
I picked up a pizza after getting a shower and to dry out my hair faster I didn't turn on the AC, was in a hot car in Florida for like 5m while it cooked and this is what happened. Pretty cool!
Edit: also it's interesting to visualize how much water is lost when you sweat
Wow, that is super weird actually.
Reminds me of an incident I had a few months ago. I arrived at work, by bike. I hadn't taken the bike for a good while, and I biked harder than I should have. Anyway, I sat down by my desk, and I started salivating.
It wasn't too much at first, I could keep up by swallowing. I immediately attributed it to the biking and wrote it off, and thought it would pass soon.
But it didn't. It kept getting worse. More saliva, and faster. I was swallowing mouthfuls at this point, and it was uncomfortable. Like I was being forced to drink lots of water, or being waterboarded.
At last I reached my breaking point and I swiftly walked to the bathroom, locked the door, and just stood with my mouth open and tongue hanging, over the sink, and it was just running, like a faucet opened just enough to be running yet not dripping. This is the part that was similar to your experience—I could feel my saliva... glands? excreting the saliva.
Anyway, this went on for about a minute or two, then it stopped, and I went on with my day.
Have never had something like that happen before, and not since.
That's even more bizarre than my story lol
Usually excessive salivation is a sign that I'm about to vomit so I think I would have wound up in the stall as a precaution
Yeah, exactly. That's why I thought it was due to the exertion from biking, and that I would soon vomit. I guess I was like on the very brink of vomiting, but never did? And my mouth was just like, "RED ALERT, FLOOD THE CAVITY, ANY MINUTE NOW. ... AAAANY MINUTE!!!"
When your mouth salivates uncontrollably, that's usually a sign you're about to throw up.
Sounds like a strange dream I would have then wake up drooling on my pillow like a great dane.
Kinda sounds like the beginning signs of nausea. Were you overheated? Hung over? Did you skip breakfast and only have coffee?
Definitely was some sort of variation of (exertion?) nausea; but no, not hung over (I don't drink), I never skip breakfast, and I don't drink coffee.
