I lick parallel to the edge of the flap – never had any problem doing it that way. I’m guessing that you had tongue cuts. Maybe the reason I don’t suffer those is because I’m never short on saliva. Serious about crackers | |||

But then, you get that newfangled pull off strip caught in your teeth. | |||

Pull-off strip AND security markings. Hardly use envelopes any more, and I’m happy about that. _________________________ “ What all the wise men promised has not happened, and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.”— Lord Melbourne | |||

I have been running them under a trickling faucet, for years. I don't know what's on them or in that glue! (((Shudder))) Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

I never lick one. If it's someone else's envelope, I use a glue stick or scotch tape. My own supply are all peel and stick. When in doubt, mumble | |||

I’m a taper too, most don’t stay sealed with just a lick. | |||
