Bill: Where is Hank?

Joan: He got embarrassed and left.

Bill: Not before he came, I hope.

Joan: Hank’s on junk. He doesn’t come.

Bill: Not before you came, I hope.

Joan: I’m on bug powder. I don’t need to come.

Link is 404. Can anyone confirm or deny anon’s statement that the bed-bug-killing plan is actually to prevent all sex, rather than cause genocide by mass rape?

Am I the only reminded of “The Screwfly Solution” by Racoona Sheldon? I hope alien real estate agents don’t find out about this.

Expect to see this from a fundie near you, gay sex kills, if you are a quarter inch long insect. Sadly, Oral has left the building, since God offed him for not paying his protection money.

sounds like possibly the cruelest form of pesticide. i’d feel kinda sorry for the little guys, but i’ve had experience with them before and they are pretty awful things.

Snig, amazing good news/bad news joke. I laughed out loud. Antinous, this does honestly seems like something Burroughs would have made up.

It sounds like the weakest males (ones with blocked glands) get killed by the others.

Here’s a link to another article that describes how the pheromone is used. As you can see, it *prevents* penis stabs:

This. Is. Just. So. Wrong.

Chemically inducing your enemies to rape each other to death; is that a meme we really want out there?

I want to point out that the pheromone they discovered actually *prevents* the male from stabbing the other male. It’s the male’s way of saying, “Hey, I’m a dude!”

So the pheromone would be used to keep males from stabbing females as well, thus preventing reproduction.

They merely discovered this pheromone’s use by blocking the males’ receptors, which caused them to stab other males to death with their penises.

You just know Glenn Beck will lead off with on Monday and somehow tie it gay sex, AIDS, and the “will of God.” And he’ll cry. ALOT!

Cue the CIA to start trying to develop something similar for “enemies of the State.”

I love how, if you share this post on Facebook, the title reads, “Bug powder causes male bedbugs to stab each other to death with their penises Boing Boing”.

Antinous, I read “Bill: Where is Hank?”, and thought it was going to be a King of the Hill quote.

that’s just to keep your blood flowing better while they drink, it’s not to allow venom to more easily penetrate your body :D

If the military develops this pheromone as a weapon, I will enlist.
