遺伝子組み換えでないフレキシブル吸収糸 by FDA、鼻糞穿り機

まあ納豆やサプリでも遺伝仕組換えはヤバイのだから、体内の糸はねー。今までのは大丈夫だったんでしょうかFDAさんWW。
羊の腸とか蚕の糸使ってたぐらいだから良いか??天然から人工へ、更に人工超天然へ??
鼻糞穿りも耳糞並みの扱いの時代。ITとES細胞技術で官能的でエロな鼻糞穿りマシーンって??

Picking one's nose is a visceral experience. Many have experienced the surge of joy that coincides with successfully capturing the elusive booger of prey. And then there are those that got away... *sigh*.

The importance of the thrill of the hunt is lost on the creators of the "nose picker." And why would anyone want someone else's finger up their nose, be it plastic or otherwise?
