Do not lick oxygen.
Don't we "lick" oxygen whenever we open our mouths?
you lick O2, diatomic oxygen. If you could 'lick' monoatomic oxygen, it would be about equivalent to licking something like fluorine.
Oxygen just really really really wants electrons. It's up there with fluorine in this regard.
Oxygen is a beast.
O wants to join with everything so bad, it sticks to itself first. O2 is still hungry enough to spontaneously eat iron. O3 can start breaking down some plastics and is extremely effective at sterilization.
Oxygen is extremely underrated and is the honey badger of all the elements.
Ah, I see. I assumed that this meme referred to licking a macroscopic "lump" of each element, rather than a single atoms.
I think you are free to interpret it however you like.
My As licking days are over, it seems. That's what I got out of this.
