I know it's sad to make others try....but technically, I didn't make her...I just say "Hey honey did you know that it's impossible to lick your elbow."

Of course, I knew she's automatically try it.devil

Watching her try to contort her body was funny...then I showed her the post and she knew I only told her that so she'd try it and I wouldn't. laugh
