Tongue twister: lick your way to a stronger tongue with this smartphone app

Just, you know, clean your screen first. Or at least wrap it up

Ever looked at yourself in the mirror while brushing your teeth, cursing your weak tongue? We know we have.

After spending years upon sweaty years methodically lifting up heavy things, grunting for a moment or two, and putting them down again, we’ve still never managed to make any gains on the most important muscle in the mouth.

Until now.

Enter lickthisapp.com – a web app that’s designed to blast your tongue from each and every angle, increase its strength and improve your life in a multitude of ways.

Lick the screen to navigate. Flick a virtual light switch up and down as many times as you can. Crank a handle around repeatedly. Hell, you can even play kick-ups with a virtual ball.

By the time your screen’s coated in a layer of drool, you’ll feel the deep, deep burn and the satisfaction of completing a gruelling workout.

Keep it up for three days a week (remembering to rest in between) and you’ll have the swolest mastication accessory around.

Gobstoppers and lollipops won’t stand a chance.
