    Local news is saying the couple arrested at the Lehigh Pub called the cops themselves. Methinks much of the story hasn't been told.

    Why the fuck would any guy want to numb his penis? It's pretty simple. If you pop too soon you do things that your partner enjoys until you're ready to go again. Not that I have any expertise in this area. Really! I heard it from a friend! I'll go hide now.

    @token_illiterate_commenter: They have numbing creams on the market right now. I was waiting to pick up a prescription at Walgreens and the line happened to be in the "family planning" aisle, where I spotted a tube of something called (no joke) Man-Delay. It had a tiger on the package and everything. I read the label and it is basically Anbesol diluted to numb the penis. I giggled like a fool for a very long time after seeing it.

    @SheelaNaGig: I thought I'd heard of products like that, but a guy would have to have a serious problem to use something like that. Most guys bitch about losing sensation with a condom, how much fun could a numb penis be? On the other hand, a tiger!

    Boy uses spray to numb penis...inserts penis into girlfriends vagina...girlfriend ends up with numb vagina. Sounds like a thoroughly thought out plan to me.

    @la.donna.pietra: In that case it would probably be more accurate to just say that "Going Rogue condensed version prevents ejaculation" I ideas it represents are quiet literally bonerkillers.

    Just a thought, but if the spray numbs the guy's penis, wouldn't it also numb the woman's vagina? From contact? Then she wouldn't be feeling anything either, and the whole purpose of lasting longer is shot to hell.

    Nice try though.

    I call shenanigans. This is impossible. You can only extract DNA from hair follicles. Hair clippings are just dead protein. No cells = no nuclei. No nuclei = no DNA.

    One more thing. Katharine Hepburn is off limits.

    @heykoukla: My understanding from the few seconds I was willing to invest in reading the website is that it's not actually made from DNA (or to replicate the scent of DNA), but that they've developed some kind of code for translating DNA into fragrance. This could mean practically anything - like a certain sequence is represented by a drop of patchoulli, another by a smidge of bergamot, etc. - or it could mean absolutely nothing, and they just did it randomly. #dnaperfume
