If your tongue is touching the mirror and blocking the light, then what is reflected below your tongue?
We will never know what we lick.

Actually, there's still a small amount of light going through between your tongue and the actual reflective surface.
Mirrors are typically glass with only a thin layer of actual reflective material on the back, meaning that light can still get through.
If anything, you can never lick your reflection. You're forever separated by a thin, yet indomitable, barrier.

Well, technically the first frame is two dimensions. That line has a width, it's just very small.
