does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop? has anyone tested this theory? I once tried and I got to 1,698 licks before my tongue felt like falling off. i prefer sucking my lollipops. its less exhausting.

That badly drawn owl only did 3 on the commercial. I can't believe that you counted that high, I guess you have more determination that most people. Do you remember what flavor it was before you tasted your own blood?

long road trips will inspire you to be a lot more determined than you might normally be. had I not been stuck in a car for the next 5 hours I most likely would have had the sanity not to try such a thing!! I did get a few cuts on my tongue actually. I hate how lollipops do that.

Man that's a shame it only takes 1'699 too get to the center.
