The "Tickle Me Elmo" trick worked for me
Just as Hank Aaron does not remember every home run he hit, I cannot remember every girl I've tickled.
🙄 But thanks to this post, I just recalled a time when the TICKLE ME ELMO trick worked for me:
A few years ago I was moonlighting in a telephone survey company. An attractive 30-something colleague named Denise was chatting about popular kids toys and dolls. Since she was standing by a cubicle, arms rested at shoulder level, I quickly moved in and joined the conversation.
Now, normally I don't like an audience when I tickle. But Denise hit my hot buttons with her straight shoulder-length brown hair, figure-8 body and plain-Jane face, so I made an exception.
"Denise," I said, "What was that doll from a few years ago? Elmo something?"
Falling for it, Denise answered, "Tickle Me Elmo."
As I tickled Denise's right side, I said, "Well, my name's not Elmo, but okay."
Denise was indeed ticklish, swaying to her left as I tickled her,

pulling her right arm to her side. A hot tickle on a hot girl!
A little embarassed but a good sport about it, Denise said, "I walked right into that."
