Would getting my tongue split hurt?

Yes: Hey! you are a human being. If you got your thumb split, would it hurt? Cutting into tissue and through skin hurts. Is that really a mystery?

Depends: If you are numb at the time it won't hurt until later.

Why: Why would you choose to do that? Yes, any surgical procedure hurts. Tongue is the most tactile organ in your body, extremely sensitive to insult.
