What to do? Stick it in your pocket? I really hope you don't forget to take it out before doing laundry. Eat it? Did the guy wash his hands after using the bathroom?

This puts my meat-catapulting catapult (with sausage wheels no less) to shame. Meat and lasers go together better than hipsters and pbr, dreadlocks and lice, or even, dare I say, fat cops and tasers.
