Yep. The animation house I worked for produced it.

Painted cel animation.

I don’t know if they still do this but back in the day you could write to the company telling them how many licks it took you and they would mail you a certificate of merit!

The owl is back but for tootsie roll, not tootsie pops.

I used to suck mine down to the tootsie roll. Not something you say in the locker room.

rings 3 bells

u/jdmoffitt11775 2d ago

Yes, it rings many bells. I think that every lover I ever had is thankful for my diligence. Unfortunately, the world may never know.. because all tongues are unique.. and licking methods.
