WS2812B (and similar) are the superior type of LED strip: not only are the LEDs individually addressable instead of the whole strip being limited to a single color, you get the D instead of the greed.

So you're saying I could connect the D!? Would it tickle?

For general safety you should not touch exposed load bearing connections without proper protection. In your case it should be no problem, even if you turn it on and touch the D there should be no physical response. The resistance caused by your body is to strong and WS2812B is at max 5v.
