It was actual licks, which is why it took all day. I remember a little why we did it.....I think we were talking about old commercials in class one day and it became a BIG thing so I tried it. I tried it once before but I lost count. :o


But for anyone else who wants to try this, one word of advice: DRINK PLENTY OF WATER while doing so. Plus it speeds it up a little lol. :p

Now that I can't remember lol. That was a big pain because there were so many....just multiply though. There was like 17 sections and each section had like 28 dots or something like that......man I must have been REALLY bored. :D :rolleyes:

Why can't even the most flexible person lick their elbow? :p

What's more annoying is not being able to reach the middle of your back to wash or scub it, or when you have an itch and you can't scratch it because you can't reach it. Urrgh it makes me so frustrated!

I have another question:

If someone killed you(god forbid) how famous do you have to be for it to be considered an assination instead of a murder?

smoked ham and boneless breasts??


do you smoke ham in a pipe or roll it like a ciggie????


bones in a breast???????????

ok I have a dumb question...
WHY do they put the light switches so far from the door frame? so you can go into a dark room, and fiddle around trying to find the stupid switch?...:confused: just seems to me that it should be somewhat closer, so you don't have to go into the room to reach it.

I know why! I work with wiring...cause there are regulations. They have to be so many inches apart from phone and studs and whatnot.

Here's my question:

They should make it a part of the box - saves paper and doesn't fall in in the water:)

why do the manufactures put a label on a hairdryer that says do not use while asleep?

when was the last time you styled your hair in your sleep?

LOL because they have to cover their a**, from idiots that , I don't know, might leave it turned on and aimed at their hair? same reason why they have to say, do not use while in water!

its scary the warnings out there, if they did not have the warnings, would someone actually DO one of those things? and they are allowed out with out a keeper?!

ok another question... WHY do they make every single thing SOOO hard to open? it seems that EVERYTHING is a real pain to open. from the smallest thing to big things, food and non food. and my arthritis makes it worse but even without that it would still be hard to do. just once if I could open something without a scissors or knife!

It's funny that you mention that! When I was living at home my mom had this ancient hair dryer that consisted of a fan/motor/heater, a hose, and something that acted like a shower cap which, when turned on, blew up like a balloon. When I was going somewhere spiffy (like a dance, or something) and wanted curly hair, I'd roll my hair in curlers and dry them using this contraption. I'd often set my alarm clock for about 45 minutes and go to sleep with it on! I wonder if the manufacturer's warning had something to do with people like me! :D

A bottle of prescription sleeping pills with a label that says..."May cause drowsiness....."

I hope so!
