- thfuran 2y agoThat does sound convenient. Can it be hooked up to my eyes to detect flies and close my mouth to make sure I don't inhale bugs while biking?
- PlunderBunny 2y agoWhat about a “we will remember it for you wholesale” version of the gum experience - you pay money and are then implanted with memories that are indistinguishable from chewing the gum. I kinda think this is the end goal for all capitalism - you pay money for nothing.
