 Silly String

Silly String is the great uniter of our time. It breaks down all ethnic boundaries and unites us all in perfect harmony. Snickers does this too. Just with a guitar in hand. But seriously though, who doesn’t like silly string? It stands among the greatest inventions of all time: the wheel, the toilet, the light bulb, hot pockets, and finally silly string.

And what’s more, silly string can have direct effects on your overall mental, emotional, and physical health. Have you ever considered that using silly string may even save your very life? You’ve heard it said, “laughter is the best medicine.” Well, guess what silly string is made from? That’s right…no, that’s wrong, not compressed lima beans. It’s canned laughter, folks. Yeah. Uh huh. Laughter. In a pressurized tube module. Heck, this stuff is so versatile, the military’s been using it in combat situations. So next time you’ve got small pox, instead of calling doc brown, try some of that silly string.

Warning: In case of an actual medical emergency, do not take this advice.
