Sometimes, I ponder. Of late, I have pondered:
- Who giggles more with a good tickle – tickler or ticklee?
- When asked the question, “Are you ticklish?” do people actually say yes? Regardless of the answer, an experiment will always follow.
- Has anybody actually stopped tickling a person after the first, “c’mon guys, stop”?
- Are humans the only ticklish animals? Imagine being charged by an elephant who, when you start to tickle him, forgets his anger and lets out a mighty guffaw. Perhaps the adage an elephant never forgets forgot to account for ticklishness.
- Do any self-defense schools focus on tickling techniques? I’ve see no tool more powerful in peacefully paralyzing an enemy.
Readers out there, please tell me the most serious person that you’ve ever tickled. As for me, I’m gonna get me a president.
How did you get a picture of my pet elephant?
Could you Bruce Lee spinning his limbs in a whirling, blinding ‘attack tickle’? He could hold his hands up above his heads, quickly opening and closing his fingers, threatening his opponent with the hilarity inducing ‘attack of the tickle birds’.
