Sherlock Fic: How many licks...

[goldvermilion87]

Drabble for the prompt "middle" at drabbles20in20.  I couldn't resist writing it...  And for all those who are either too young or not American, I have embedded a version of the commercial that little Sherlock saw.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I preformed an experement for your advertesment I saw on holiday in New York about how many licks it takes for a tootsie roll pop

So, how many?

[goldvermilion87]

Um...

I didn't get the enclosed papers, so I don't really know.

:-P

Ahaha! I can see Sherlock doing something like this! What a lovely little drabble-definitely made me smile. :)

"a One *lick*... a Two *lick*... a Three." *crunch*

*eats*

"Three"

Takes me back, it does :-)

:-) I never actually saw one of these commercials, but I know so many jingles and taglines and stuff because my mom tells them all to us for some reason. I have to admit, the commercial made me giggle.

I did! Takes me back, too. This is awesome. :-)

Why can I see a exceedingly solemn Sherlock doing this? My guess is about a thousand...

A true scientist also starts young? :-P

I think some students at some university did it and it was 1,000+
