Apparently, it is impossible to lick your elbow.

Useless fact. :wink: Plus, I now get the mental image of people all around the world seeing if they can :mrgreen: Try explaining that one in the office :lol:

Yeah...ok, I'm bored :wink:

It really is, but I tried that years ago. *quick test* Still no success. Well then.

It's only possible if you just happen to lose an arm

I'd guess you also have to find it again, though.

*pictures a rotting arm lying behind the sofa*

Um... I can't lick my elbow... but I CAN stick my fist in my mouth. Does that count for anything? X_x Not only that, but I can wiggle some of my fingers like spaghetti. Now THAT must count for something.

I read this once before, and apparently 90% of people who read it, try it. So, honestly, how many of you just attepmted to lick your elbow?

*Whistles innocently*

uh uh I did :lol:


and it really doesn't work :wink:

*raises hand* I tried, didn't work no.


Oh and my mom says you're all nuts. :P

She did hm? I guess I should have warned her when I had the chance. :wink:

*touches nose to elbow with no problem* :?

*succeeds with his lips too*



...Oh, you mean the point of the elbow? Well of course! :roll: There's that big fat arm in the way and with that silly ball-and-socket joint for a shoulder and that one-way joint for an elbow there's no way you're getting around it. ;)

Actually, it IS possible to lick your elbow! I just tried and succeeded! It was painful, but successful, :mrgreen: You weaklings are just not trying enough. :twisted: :twisted:

:twisted:

Cardies are double-jointed? :shock:

Why is it that the first thing I do after reading this post is try to lick my elbow, i'm sure looking like a nit with with my tongue sticking out and my arm held up at a weird angle? :P

Did that thought cross any of your minds as well?

You`re not the only one, Celeste, :mrgreen:

To answer your question - humans, by nature, are a stupid species. They try to lick their elbow and fail.

While we Vortas also try to lick our elbows and succeed. :twisted:

I am a Vorta. :mrgreen: And YOU are not trying hard enough! It is possible!


<<Nic imagines dozens and dozens of 5MVers pushing their elbows on their mouths and sticking tongue out, gets a hysterical laughing fit, falls off chair>>

...and while you are preoccupied with that silly activity, Worf runs in with a phaser rifle and blasts you to bits. :roll: Yep, we humans are the stupid ones all right...

Worf? Human? :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Worf wasn't even trying to lick his elbow. Klingons are un-stupid like that. ;)

I wouldn`t bet on it. I mean, humans are stupid, but Klingons... :twisted:

ON TOPIC - Any success yet in the licking? :mrgreen:
