Mar 2014

This morning, I applied an alternating electical current to a ground disk of ferrous oxide, and applied slender, pressed strips of amalgamated proteins, saturated lipids and mineral chlorides, and heated them until the heat vulcanized them into hard planks... and then I ate them, along with similarly heat-treated starch sponges (chock full of GLUTEN!) and washed it down with a suspension of more lipids, protines, and archaobacteria in liquid obtained through a bovine's genetically modified sebaceous glands!

An d then I put a smear of detergents, phenols, and gritty carbonate chemicals - the same used in industrial steel production! - on a bunch of mass-produced bristles made through the denaturation of crude oil... and rubbed it around my mouth for over a minute!
