Poll: Did you ever get a tiny bump on the tip of your tongue and you play with it until it hurts really bad?
Where did the bump come from?
And why do we insist on playing with it?

Yes I have ...... I looked it up on Web MD and it looks like it is usually caused by eating very acidic or greasy foods ...... probably just a result of all of the delicious foods you ate yesterday at Easter ........ the cure ......... a mouthful of sweet and creamy Cool Whip ....... I will make it feel all better ......

i got a natural "bump" on the tip of my tongue(born with it, i guess) i learned through the years to use it to satisfy or prolong a feeling of "wow" when i'm visiting down in the "valley".

when I eat anything too salty or acidic, I get that tiny bump. Yes, I play with it, nip without meaning to, and generally torment it.

Its called a lie bump...but its simply a swollen taste bud. Gargle with salt water. Or take a Qtip dip it in peroxide and dab it on the bump.
