FYI, this won't shock anybody, the piercing bar will just get real hot, as will the battery in your hand as you've just short-circuited it.

Won't it? I remember touching the contacts on a 9v to my train track braces when I was a teenager Fucking felt that.

Saliva is the difference. You can taste the electricity if you lick a 9v.

A piercing would probably heat up instead of tasting spicy

Metal piercing has much lower resistance than skin. The less resistance the path is, the more current will flow on that path. So, even if you spit on the piercing and lick it to your heart's content, the path of least resistance between two battery contacts will still be that metal rod instead of your skin. In other words, the probablility of a miniature skewer cosplay happening is much higher than that of an electrocution.

Tastes metallic, like copper, like blood, but burning, btw.

Just in case anyone wants to know, lol.
