I had to come back and tell y'all this.

Yesterday, me and Boyfriend were watching tv and just chillin. So me, remembering what my girl CT4 had posted, I told my boyfriend that it is physically impossible to lick your own elbow. He just said "wow, I didn't know that."

So, about an hour later, I was upstairs cleaning the bathroom when he starts calling me downstairs. I came down and this fool was licking his own elbow. At first, I thought he had just gotten close but not really there. But, he can really lick his own elbow. On one hand, I am kind of freaked out, but on the other hand, I am awkwardly intrigued.

And the irony of that is when you die, the police lets your funeral procession run the red lights on the way to the cemetary. I guess it's because when you're dead, it's important that you arrive at your burial on time.

On average, 100 people choke to death on ball point pens every year.
I guess in this case, practice doesn't make perfect.

BTW, great facts. Sounds like questions used on Hollywood Squares.
