       Let's consider it in a little detail: Could you experience drinking as a   
   giraffe? No. Eating? Nope. Nor walking, running, lying down, getting   
   up, or sleeping. Not mating. You couldn't even experience the   
   senses like a giraffe, and in fact don't even know what sensations   
   like tasting, smelling, seeing etc. would be like for a giraffe. You couldn't   
   lick yourself like a giraffe, and you couldn't lick a giraffe like a giraffe.   
   So we see a number of giraffile things that you could *not* do, but as   
   yet we (apparently yourself included) can't think of any that you *could*.   
   Meaning that my original question remains.
