last night i was at the local grocery store when i saw this: "GROW A BOYFRIEND! Watch him develop into the perfect man! He expands 3 to 4 times his size in water!" the product in question was a plasticky looking mini-man figurine about 2 inches tall.
3 to 4 times his size?!? rather disappointing, reallyas a kid wandering through the "San Francisco" novelty store (probably a canadian thing), i always imagined these things would balloon to the size of your average teen idol, say, michael j. fox. this was before i got kicked out of the store for opening too many boxes of "fundies."
but...*calculating*...i guess EIGHT INCHES of wet plastic foam could be put to some boyfriend-like uses.
