That is not the case at all. The Catholic Church, through Vatican 2, has allowed people to receive either in their hands or on their tongue. More people prefer to receive in their hands.

How did they stick Flick's tongue to the pole in Christmas Story?

It was a fake pole. They attached a "vacuum" like apparatus to it and drilled a hole where he placed his tongue so it sucked in his tongue without doing any harm to him. It made it look like his tongue was stuck and he could flail his arms around more making the scene look more real.

Why is it a sin to receive communion more than once a day?

The wafer represents the body of Christ; wine represents His blood. If we treated Communion as just a food or that we can have 'seconds' or have 'more', we reduce it to the mere 'ordinary'. So Communion is restricted as a special Holy Sacrament.

What is more important holy communion or baptism and why is it more important?

Baptism is only Entering into a faith, religion, and family. Like and establishment or welcoming into the family of God. And being Catholic, Baptism usually happens when you are little. So it's more for the Parents, who make a promise, than it is for the individual who is being baptized. Communion is more important because that is the only way you can receive God's body and blood. But you can't have communion without first being Baptized, had your first reconciliation, and first communion. So, baptism is coming into the family/faith and important as a step to Communion, but Communion is God. It's like this baptism = front door of God's house Communion = Sitting next to God at the dinner table. Either way, both are important Sacraments.
