Slime Turns Into Sex Toy, Childhood Memories Shattered Forever

"Remember that classic "toy" slime that came in a little garbage can? Ever use it to have sex? Yeah, um... me neither. Anyway, it turned 30 years old this month. To celebrate, Japan's Mega Store is releasing an updated line of products called Adult Slime. Nostalgic Generation Xer's will be happy to know the line has expanded to include four new scents that "appeal to adult sensitivities," including hot, relax, love and the ironically named elegance. Bedroom? Meet Slimer. Wet Naps not included."

Adult Slime: Classy, relaxing, retro goo

"Slime, as you are probably not aware, recently celebrated its 30th birthday. Which means those of you (us!) who grew up playing with the squishy stuff are all (mostly) grown up now. In honor of this momentous anniversary, Mega House is releasing a line of Adult Slime.

Note: By adult we just mean it is for grown-ups.

The slime, which rest-assured comes in a plastic capsule (though one with slightly more modern, sophisticated lines), is scented to appeal to adult sensitivities. Adult Slime comes in four varieties (¥1,029 each), hot, relax, love, and elegance, each with a scent to match the ascribed mood.

We can’t say for sure if slime was in fact a global phenomenon but it did have its moment in Japan as well. Capsules of the sticky green stuff were sold at vending machines at dagashiya, cheap sweet shops beloved by school kids of previous generations."

"Slime" crossed with 'sex'?

I don't get it. I like my toys like I like my women: Dry, Not Jiggly, and no wet mess on the sheets afterwards.

Who needs the hassle?

And to think I was going to use it as a prop in a fan film.

Silly me!
