Can I lick it?

Yes, you can! As A Tribe Called Quest famously told us back in 1990.

Or can you?

But Beagle-eyed readers will already have spotted that we didn’t actually ask about Kicking it. We asked about Licking it…

Here’s a great guide to the dos and don’ts of licking elements. It’s probably not something that you think you’ll need on your journey through life, but it might come in handy, should you find yourself a bit bored and holding onto a block of Thorium (you’re already likely in trouble at this point, anyway).

So, maybe bookmark this page just in case, and as the was pointed out in the comments: Remember, you can lick any element once.

Mmm.
