Synopsis

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.
