[[:File:tongue awareness.jpg|Here's the comic in question]] by Schulz. xkcd's version has [[Black Hat]] as Linus, and [[Cueball]] as Lucy. In both comics, when you start thinking about your tongue, you can't stop thinking about it. This is similar to the way that if you start thinking about your breathing, you stop breathing unless you consciously think to breathe. |
