You can see Gene Simmons influence on the youth on full display whenever Miley Cyrus comes around. She's got his tongue gag down pat, except hers isn't quite as long as Gene Simmons'. Size isn't everything, because her tongue has made quite an impact despite being so small. There was a couple of months where you couldn't pass by a magazine stand without seeing Miley sticking her tongue out.
I think it's safe to say that we all wish we could insure our tongues. Does that mean I'd get a payout every time I burnt my tongue on hot soup? I think I might rather go with roof of mouth insurance. I can't eat a pizza without destroying the roof of my mouth. I could just wait until the pizza cools down, but I'd rather just insure it and do as I please.
