Licking Lead is only "not a great idea?" I think it's squarely in the "Please don't do that" territory.

You can absolutely lick lead once without any noticeable consequences. You need to be living in constant interaction with lead to get poisoning.

The best part is that if you do it enough you will forget what the problem is and an continue to lick lead.

Would you rather lick Uranium?

Damn, so close, put "us" in there and I'd be licking Uranus.
