Step 7: When to Properly Tongue Flap and Other Shenanigans

Lately there's been this famous action that people (mostly teenagers) will do as a greeting to other people (again, mostly teenagers). We call it: the tongue flap. Some people call it revolting, we call it madness. 

But all madness must be tamed (except for the Joker, you just go ahead and do your thing bro, because you're scary) and I've personally experienced when not to use the tongue flap. 

Tongue flapping semi-truck drivers is okay, but doing it to an elderly female truck driver is not. Doing so will only result in a sickening feeling in your stomach and an awkward chill running up your spine. Trust me, you don't want awkward chills and sickening feelings. 

Use the tongue flap wisely. 

Tongue flapping a person who is mentally friend-zoned is fine, but doing it to someone who you wish you could friendzone is not. This is only going to result of you feeling crummy about yourself afterward because for some reason, you rather enjoyed that awkward moment. 

Do not abuse the tongue flap. 

Tongue flapping is generally just not okay when you are in the presence of adults, such as your parents or mentors. I don't think I have to go into further explanation with this one, but if you absolutely feel the need to be weird and awkward, a simple "Meeeerp" works just as well as a tongue flap. 

There you go, I have saved you from horrendous embarrassment and bad memories. Don't say I never did you any good. Any awkward stories involving tongue flaps or other weird sounds? Shoot a comment and we'll chit chat.
