I have no idea why I called you a god.
Unless that was you in the hotel closet in Vancouver in 1991.
uuummm.. Hoblit, that was fuckin beautifully done by the way. Seriously ... (I'm talking about his nice mediation, not the closet).

Is it better to block off the other holes with your tongue, or to blow it through a curved lower lip? If it's with the tongue, is it better to use the tip of the tongue or the width of the tongue?
Tongue blocking versus lip blocking (aka pucker) is really a matter of personal taste and dexterity. But there, now you've got some more terms to google
It may be personal taste, but if you are just starting, using your tongue is a lot harder to do, and so I say, is the wrong way to go about it.

I'll agree that it's harder (for me, anyway) to do, but KMS may have an extremely agile tongue...
and it's good practice for getting used to the feel of tongue splitting (playing, say, the 1 & 4 holes with your tounge blocking the 2 & 3 holes) for that old time chicago feel.

Sober gets plenty of practice on his boyfriend's cock, though.
