I beg to differ on the continent thing. North America, South America. NA and SA are 2 different letter groups. Oh yeah, and don't try to just use the America thing because they don't teach it that way in school.

No, I didn't try to lick my elbow, I did once try to put my elbow in my ear after hearing about it on TV.

I heard that line about Q-Tips......never put anything in your ear that's smaller than your elbow.

Licking your own ear will greatly up your popularity with the ladies, though.
 
Almost broke my neck trying to lick my elbow ... where's my neck brace!?!
 
I'll add 2 here. Your thumb is the same size as your nose. Your fore arm is the same length as your foot !
