i couldn't even get the first word out when i tried this one!!! pretty twisty!!
Over 75% of people who read this will try to lick their elbow.
I DIDN'T!!!! That's probably because I've tried it plenty of times before!!
I don't believe some of these. They smack of internet rumor.
But I agree about that tongue twister. I get halfway through it in my head and I get stuck. I haven't even tried to say it out loud.
I didn't do the elbow one either but that's because I have tried it before. My work mate did though :)
Interesting list. My reaction to some of them was that they were utter nonsense.
I didn't try to lick my elbow because I am much too refined to do that sort of thing! lol!
LOL Priscilla. You are very refined!
This is too weird. Last night my room mate was looking for jokes to use for a class lesson and came across a website that had a bunch of random things, and these were all on that!! Did you get this from a website?! What is funny is that we both tried to lick our elbows! And I made her send me the link so that I could post some of them on my blog. Isn't that weird!?!?
That is wierd and yes I did get them from a website the other day - too strange.
Could you lick your elbow?
okay I didn't lick my elbow , but I thought about it hard!
