ARE YOU WANING? WAXING? CRESCENT? FEELING GIBBOUS?


The Planet Scumm Institute for "Skeletaxonomy" is recruiting volunteers for a clinical trial of scummicillin, a probacterial designed to treat symptoms associated with body solidity, three-dimensionality, and organ, uh... having.


If you've experienced one of the following, you may be eligible to participate in our study:

  • Complications from one or more fullbody skeletal replacements

  • Out-of-body experiences brought about by illicit virtual reality "jacking"

  • Identity theft by mind-copied synthetics

  • Rust, suspension fatigue, or "Tin Man

    syndrome"

  • Feelings of inadequacy or weaponization while piloting an exo-suit

  • Post-expiration quasi-materiality

  • Shin splints

  • Wombats

  • Unexplained head detonation, with or without a pre-explosion fugue


    Call the Planet Scumm Institute today for a consultation, at no cost to you.
