Human anatomy: you’re technically always licking it. And now you’re aware of it. Your tongue on the roof of your mouth. Touching your teeth.
commanderoptimism@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
I always hate how well this works…
Also I hope you enjoy manually breathing now as in retaliation

Geography: You can try, but it’s gonna take you a while.
Cartography: “Would you not lick my maps, please?”
History: Fuck You.
Sociology: Allowed and encouraged in some fields, others… better not.
Economics: “Is Human Resources there?”
Medicine: “Next, please.” or “Don’t, please.”
Civil engineering: Go ahead, eat the dirt.

Lick the null and keep on with your life. Lick the phase and suffer. Lick two phases and die.

You can always lick the ground or earth depending on where you live

Certain tree frogs in the Amazon: while you’re at it, lick us too

I want to make a joke about “that’s how you catch herpes”, but my brain is fried.
So I’ll just leave you with the knowledge that the Colorado River Toad is also psychedelic. and the Park Service really want people to stop.

Software engineering… If you can lick it, you spelled “click” wrong. And that’s why your code won’t compile, you complete failure.

My Clinical Microbiology teacher: I’m no longer allowed to teach you how to waft plates, but… if you happen to catch a whiff of ____ growing on a plate, you would smell ____. ::wink, wink::

In zoology, science might lick you, but it might also bite you.

Physics clubs always pull out the liquid nitrogen ice cream, so licking is an option!
HonorableScythe@lemm.ee 1 year ago
As long as it’s the ice cream you’re licking and not the liquid nitrogen.

And then there is NileRed, who does lick the chemistry He does.

Chemistry 50 years ago: it is encouraged to smell, taste, and injest all of your work

You know it’s an old paper when it describes the taste of mercury salts.

Or the dizzying high resulting from tasting 2,3,4,5-tetramethoxyamphetamine

And sometimes inject.
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 1 year ago
A quick question, should the software engineer lick the monitor screen or the keyboard?
I… uh… am asking for a friend who is a software engineer.
I am a butterfly instructor.
SanndyTheManndy@lemmy.world 1 year ago
the motherboard. how else can you tell that it is working?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Given most software engineers develop in a cloud environment, I would… I mean my friend would have to shove their head into a server rack that is consuming high amounts of wattage. My friend would then have to try reaching for the motherboard by extending their tongue.
The only problem I see here is travelling to the data centre which are often in different countries or continents. I am not sure if their employer would cover that expense.
trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Most keyboards get really gross after a while and are hardly ever cleaned. I’d go for the monitor.
Nelots@lemm.ee 1 year ago
This is why they never get cleaned, you gotta start somewhere. Lick the keyboard!
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 year ago
The butterflies. Someone needs to see if they taste of butter.
psud@aussie.zone 1 year ago
I have eaten fried moth. Tasted much like almond
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 1 year ago
They taste more like flies and less like butter.

Licking is for mouses and touch-pads.
Use the onLick() event.
Kowowow@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
Isn’t there a game where if you put ketchup on the disc it does something to make it easier to speedrun? So licking might be too unreasonable
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Thanks for sharing the insight. Apparently, it was a speed run hack on Xbox for an old SpongeBob game.
So, there’s some precedent set in the field of computer peripheral licking to improve results.

So you’re saying I can lick Uranus?
MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 1 year ago
If you go there, yes.
spittingimage@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Point yourself at the surface so that when you get there the tongue-part of the pressure diamond you’ve become is lowest.

How would I go about licking the sun?
ulterno@lemmy.kde.social 1 year ago
Just send a meta-lick into the future. After long enough, the Sun will come closer to get licked.
psud@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Choose parts of the sun the sun has thrown away so as to not need to find a way of surviving to living range of the surface of the sun

Lemme just lick my radioactive isotope sample.

We know not to lick it, therefor someone has licked it

pineapplelover@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Comp sci and software engineering is pretty much the same thing
BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I would say replace “Computer Science” with “Computer Engineering” (or electrical engineering) and it works pretty well
pineapplelover@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Not really. Software engineering is part of computer science. Computer engineering and electrical engineering have more to do with physical hardware and circuits.

Economics: How much are you willing to pay?
Oiconomia@feddit.de 1 year ago
If the market clears the price is equal to the marginal utility of getting licked

Philosophy:
“That depends on your definitions, some may call philosophy a science, others may not, what do you think? Can you lick the philosophy?”
NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
There is philosophy in everything. Any time you lick anything, you lick philosophy. Even if you lick nothing, you lick philosophy.
isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
is my toungue staying inside my mouth licking the inside of the mouth? does that mean it’s also licking philosophy?
mipadaitu@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Philosophy is science. It’s the very foundation of all of our studies. What do you think PhD stands for?
exocrinous@startrek.website 1 year ago
Philosophy isn’t science. Science is philosophy. Philosophy can be science, reason, mysticism, and a bunch of other stuff I can’t remember

Chemistry has discovered more than they probably care to admit by accidentally licking things.
xkforce@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Purposefully licking things.
Chemists of old were a bit less safety conscious than we are today. Tasting the chemicals you just made was just part of the job back then.
spittingimage@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Chemists of old were plenty safety conscious. Licking the science is what apprentices were for.

We still like to sniff stuff. You’ve got some very sensitive chemoreceptors right on your face, might as well use them!
